The taming of the Shrew ...

One of my best friends is getting married next weekend..as of course most brides to be she is a bit nervous and anxious..

Brought me back to my day..I was SOOOO nervous..I kept telling myself to be strong no crying u didn’t just spend $$$ on makeup for it to be ruined lol Sure my mom made me have episodes but I quickly fought them back. However, when I saw my husband in the hotel lobby in his suit looking amazing and calm (the bastard) I lost it..he had the audacity to ask “why was I crying?” Gee im about to spend the rest of my life with you I better be crying! I didn’t know my husband all that well when I said “yes”..we were together for 4 months when he asked with ring and all..didnt see that coming! We didn’t live together till 1 month before the wedding however on our honeymoon we did celebrate our 2 year anniversary so it all pans out lol Ok I went off on a tangent, ok where was I? oh yeah.. Didn’t know my husband all that well when I said “yes”..as I got to know him I further fell in love if that’s even possible..and now that we are almost together for 3 ½ years I am even more in love since day one..I didn’t think it was possible so love does grow..how will I feel when we hit the 5year ..10+ year marks? I cant even fathom .. I can’t wait to start a family, we have part of the equation a dog. A puppy that is the 2nd best thing to happen so far..well he isn’t quite a puppy anymore but he’s still my lil ball of mush..

Thanks babe for coming into my life and taming “me”

The juices are flowing....

I did page 1 of my moms book, I decided to kinda do chronological order so its her baby photos. I was ready to start this morning had my layout sketch prepared and realized I didn't have much paper to choose from. I have most blacks & pinks and weddingy type..I wanted variations... i wanted new paper..the scrapbook section is starting to be like a drug I looked for a coupon online so i can at least somewhat afford my addiction and there its was 25% off starting today..so i made a mad dash to an AC Moore... I needed paper. I can take hours deciding on something my hubby can attest to that. I only took like 25mins in the paper aisle I’m quite proud. I found an awesome set of 180 pages for 19.99. Each page is gorge..(OMG Kath & Kim references are sticking!!!) So I made her 1st page..like I said I’m very new at this so if it looks amateurish… dam it is… so =P





Now off to watch last nights SNL w/ the hubs.

Halloween Things

Such a productive day..well creatively that is..We got a pumpkin a huge guy and I carved the face of Jigsaw puppet.. oh yeah we are bad @$$ like that..

Some pics




And I started my moms scrapbook since I was already in a halloweeny spirit I dovetailed the Halloween page I wanted to add of us and my mom at our Halloween best... the awesome Michael Meyers was my lil brother yeah at 16 he wasn’t very little but oh well..

I think it came out rather nice..not bad for a novice scrapbooker..



Its 1am I just had to share my pics and productive day now off to walk fen and see if Jiggy is still holding out in this chilly weather

TGIF!?!

I feel so blah today..was sick most of the night and now im feeling a lil blahish again.. is blahish a word? Ehhh who cares it will be for now.. =)

Im working on a scrapbook for my mom I hope to complete it by her birthday. I dug up all old pictures I can find of her and us and checked my emails from 2004 and found some long forgotten great shots that I will use. After looking in my hat box of horror (the box with every memento given to me since I was like 12 is in there) My hubby says I need to throw stuff away and I say pish posh im not! Every item brought me back to that time it and was fun to reminisce if only in my head cause im sure the hubs cares less about a petal given to me by an ex oh but he will when he reads this..dam there goes that petal LOL

However I also inherited a lot of silly mementos from my mom way back when and guess what I came across?? My mom’s letter from the doctor when her pregnancy test came back positive with lil ole me December 11 1979 That will make an awesome addition to the book. Im looking forward to starting this project this weekend and hope to be done in 3 weeks…

Im starting a blog..be afraid...

New Blog space so bare..like an empty canvas in some west village over priced apartment… I will fill it with, in chronological order I may add.. the idiosyncratic yet juxtaposed with the seemingly monotonous life I lead. Oh yeah people prepare for a whole lot of nothing to you but the best fodder for humor for me 4 ++ years from now!
I re-read my livejournal evey now and again and say OMG WHAT was wrong with you!! Then I think, nothing was wrong.. you were 19 totally ok..

Let me introduce myself, I am me. I am 28, married to the best husband ever albeit he has issues on baseball team of preference… like the Red SUX all star CHOKESTERS =)

I have amazing friends whom without I’d be sitting at my desk banging my head against the keyboard till I forget where I was and hope when I eventually come to its 5PM
For example I shall start with quotes of the day so far I have from J1 at 12:53pm what can be heard is “You showed him how to shake his rump in the trunk with flava!!!! LOL

And out of nowhere M-“ OMG I’m being winked from CA and FL now

This is why I truly heart my friends..

And as you see I started with a canvas and now I end with random quotes..

Welcome to my corner of the world… enjoy your stay…
