Finally...I have a chance...

To sit down and blog!! I have been so busy, since I got home for CHA!! Which was amazing by the way!! I met sooo many great people, and got some great offers...which I think are going to be very promising!! I have so excited to be working with Fiskars now!! Thank you May!! You are the *BOMB* More info to come! And I got to see me wonderful friends from my DT....Kim, Carolyn, Marnie, Tina, Linda, Angie, Shannon, Scott, Kim H....there has to be more...Thank you to everyone who helped me at CHA! And epsecially Marnie for letting me bunck hat her house! You girls are so cute! I can't wait to start working with all the great products from the show! Everything was amazing! I have to hand it to these companies! They spend sooo much money just to be at these shows! And the always design such stunning products! We as designers are lucky to have such great manufacturers to work with!

Anyhoo....loving the new car!! But I have to stop driving!! I been at he gas station too much!!

I entered some photos in the county fair...but I don't think I am going to get anything...there was some pretty tough competition! But it was a fun experience anyway!

I have been talking to my friend, and I think that I can start at the art school that I want to go to at the beginning of first semester rather than switching at the second semester. That is so rad for me!! I can't wait to start there!!

I got Ali's new book....and have been loving it!! It is great! I love her!! And I got Elsie's book too!! She is too cute!! I love her style!

I actually did a page yesterday!! I know, right.....like that hasn't happend in forever!! Oh, and I have fallen in love with 8X8....I don't know why, but I like it! It's fun to switch it up every once in a while!!

Well....I have to get some breakfast!! I was out LATE last night...and I just got up! HA!! Oh well, it's the summer! But not for long! School starts Sept 6!! EEkKKK!! that' like in a month!! Hello....reality Check!!

Ok...I am really done this time!
:) Peace......

Proof read, proof read, proof read!!

I can't believe what I just did! I never catch typos! I was printing my business cards for CHA, and I was on my last page....I had cut them all already, and I noticed that I had and extra E in designer!! I put desigener!! UGH! And I don't think I have enough ink to reprint them all....or time! They look great other wise....they make me feel so professional!

Anyhoo....we finally got some rain here!! We needed it sooooo bad! The grass is beyond fried!

I am in love with my new car!! I just want to get in and drive! But that would be really expensive!! I wish gas prices would go down!!

Well, stay tunned for CHA photos!! I can't wait to go!! And to see everyone!! Kim, Carolyn, Tina, Marnie, Shannon, Linda, Scott.....who else? I am missing people, sorry if its you! And I am going to get to meet so many more people that inspire me! It's going to be a blast! I leave for the airport tomorrow morning at 5am!! Man that's early! But soooo worth it!

New Ride!!

So I got it!! It's here!! In the garage!! I am so excited!! No more putsing with the oldsmobile!! I will have to post some pics...I love it!

Other than that.....I got my DT projects done..but I am having trouble uploadin', hopefull I can get 'em soon....

Can't wait for CHA! It's like 4 days!! AHHHH!!

I can't believe Amy Howe.....my hero....is reading my blog!! I read her's everyday!! That is so cool! I hope I get a chance to meet her at CHA!! I can't believe it's only in a few day!!! AAAHHH!!! I need to get busy!!

So my mom's suprise party was so much fun! Everything went so good! I am glad!! There is a ton of extra food left over! So I am having a bunch of friends over tonight and we are ganna pig out!! HA!

Not much really to report on...I have to get working on my DT project! They are due tomorrow!! Eeekkk!! I have some of 'em done..but I have a few more to do....and I have to scan them all! So, I better get workin'!!

Another hot one!

So today is super hot be over 100 today for the first time since 1995! And yes...it's my mom's suprise party....we decided to have it indoors, with AC! It would just be miseralbe outside!

My dad and I looked at cars this morning!! I am so excited!! I decided to get the Ford Taurus..(sp?)...and he is getting one for my mom too! So, my sister, me, and my mom will all be driving identical cars!! LOL....but mine is silver...thiers will both be 'mocha' I actually like that color better, but I like the silver better mechanically....and it has flex fuel...so I can use E85....which is about 50 cents cheaper than regular unleaded here!! That will be nice!! I can't wait...the dealer put a sold sign on it, but I have to wait till monday to pick it up!! :)

{Friday morn....

It's supposed to be extremely hot today! ICK! Like in the 100's...My sister and I are planning a suprise b-day party for my mom tomorrow, and it's supposed to be really hot tomorrow too! UGH!...oh well.

My dad is helping me find a new car!! WHOO!! I might have one by the end of the day today!! I have been looking at Cadillac Eldorados....they are sooooo nice! But he doesn't want my get one cause of the gas milage...and he thinks gas is going to be $4 a gallon pretty soon!! That would be horrilbe!! But there is this dealing in my town...he's a small used car dealer, and he is the nices guy ever!! That's where my sister has always gotten her cars and they have always been great cars....so I think we are going to get one thru him....my mom needs a new car too....so my dad is ganna get one for her with him also...My sister got a new Ford Taurus from him a few weeks ago...and that's what my dad want to get me and my mom....wouldn't that be funny! We would all have the same kind of car...and the ones the dealer has right now are the same color as my sisters!! We would all be driving identical cars!! LOL! But my dad is looking at a Buick Lasaber today...it's a nice car, but it looks like an old man should be driving it...! Oh, well...it is better than what I am driving now!!

I got my boss to become a member of the message board that I design for!! I am so happy that she finally is taking the plunge into the message board stuff...she has really awesome work! She is on the design team for Pazzels....hopefully she will post some of her work...it is really great! Go Dorere!!
