I don't recommend the kidney stones.

This photo is just fun. My scrappin friends. It looks better in black and white...but I'm having some trouble with my new installation of photoshop. Need time to work on it.

So I went to the hospital on Sunday...and after many tries to find my stupid little veins by poking my freakin arms a gazillion times...and giving me 2 huge glasses of some white chalky citrus drink and nausea medicine...and apparently morphine...me passing out in the hospital...I apparently had a kidney stone. Felt better the next day...but the 3 leading up to Sunday sucked. I think I'm a riot in the hospital though...I was asking the doctor if I was in 'Nam and to hit me again with the morphine. Obviously I'm feeling fine now.

I like this idea...

I saw this on Ali E's blog...
Outside my window...The sun is shining and it looks like it is going to be warmer than it has been.

I am thinking...that I need to probably go to the doctor to have this pain in my side taken care of.

I am thankful for...new windows tomorrow.

From the kitchen...pomegranate and blueberry juice from Trader Joe's

I am wearing...my Obama t-shirt and flowery pajama bottoms.

I am creating...working on my Wreck this Journal and getting photos into albums.

I am going...um...possibly to the doctors.

I am reading...Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay
I am hoping...to take down all of the window treatments today.

I am hearing...birds outside.

Around the house...it's semi-clean as we prepare for windows and some renovation to the kitchen.

One of my favorite things...is catching up on some movies like The Family that Prey's and Tropic Thunder.

A few plans for the rest of the week...Hoping I feel better because we need to work on the kitchen.

A picture to share...new glasses.

I've already finished a couple of books off the summer reading list...this was one of them. Very good.
And I can't wait to go to this world....Alice in Wonderland...with Johnny Depp and Tim Burton...be still my heart.

I need to get my Florida girls weekend pics up soon. It was a really great time.

I'm pretty sure I have an addiction to this place. Polar pineapple is my fave.

I've had enough of these things!! It sucks to live by the lake for a few weeks out of the year when the midges come out. They cover the outside of our house and swarm you when you go outside. They will be gone soon. And I will be happy.
I have been scrapping.
My summer reading list....keeps expanding. This is what I have so far. Can't wait to dig in.
Today was my last day of school!! I shall rejoice and take a nap. I might go see the movie "UP" tonight. If not tonight, then sometime this week. 

I've really been in a scrapping funk...but I feel the love coming back. I thought I would put some of my favorite LO's by some of my favorite scrappers up to get me motivated. The first one is by me. It's one of my faves.

Hopefully this will give me some inspo! And if you need some inspo today...go to Elsie's blog, she's doing new posts every hour with terrific eye candy. 

Been super busy lately and counting down the days until school is out. Can't wait for the summer. Went to the Indians game on Sunday. They lost. Hate when the Tribe sucks.

Been chillin with my favorite girl in the world. She looks so sweet here. We've been catching up on some shows. I'm super behind on Grey's and Heroes and Fringe. Tonight is the Lost finale. I'm so excited. Who wants Sawyer and Juliette to be together? (me, me!!!) My favorite line from last week was of course Ben "What John, do you think I'll stage a coup while your gone". 
Last weekend we went to Cinci and ran in the Flying Pig Marathon. All the cousins did the relay. My part was 6.5 miles. It wasn't bad at all. It was fun to hang with everyone. 

Also this week...

• Star Trek...LOVED it!
• Cavs...kickin A**
• Making stuff from thrift store finds.
• Patti Lapone and Mandy Patinkin. Kind of boring, but Patti can sing her Arse off. 
• They are putting a bubble tea and snow cone place in down the street. Sweet.

Happy Earth Day (late)

All of this fun stuff at Target makes me want to garden. 

I made this shirt for Earth Day. I found the shirt at the thrift store and added the letters with fabric that I got from Laina's mom. I also wore it with a few earth friendly buttons. 

I made this cute little fabric added onesie for a sweet girl I know, but she is already too big for it...have to give it to someone else. I got the idea from my favorite girls at Stitch Cleveland. 
Found these fun signs in the Target dollar spot. They'll be up in my classroom. 
I'll post more often...
