This is me...

Ranting, and writings and thoughts, and ideas, and the controlled randomness that is me...

Gardening under false pretense...

I read a few websites last night about growing potatoes. They made it
seem SO easy. I know that this is a lie because I tried to grow them
last year. Ok, either it's a lie, or I'm an idiot? Maybe o didn't
water them enough, or maybe I didn't plant them deep enough in the
first place? Could bethat the taters I used didn't have enough if an
eye on them? Hmmm, all things for consideration I suppose.

Not ready to admit that I'm an idiot, neither am I ready to admit
it'll be as easy as the website makes it seem, however, I am gonna try
again this year!

Ever the optimist? Or do I refuse to learn from my mistakes!?

A hunch is creativity trying to tell you something

Spider Guy

This is a spider that we noticed in our bathroom the other morning. He was just hanging out there. I had to grab my camera and get some pictures!


 I like the light that was coming in between the Listerine and toothpaste cup!


 I love how we got his shadow in these pictures...

Stop In The Name Of Photography...

AWESOME Project


 This is "Marie's Graduation Book".


 We use this book to keep track of ALL of the stuff that is going on with her.


 From ordering her photos and announcements, to her test dates, and stuff like that.

 This is the back... 






THIS is MY book... I love my book!
 I made pockets for it... The hot glue didn't do the job, so for now, I use paperclips!


 This is my calendar I put in it...


More Pockets


 In the back I put scrapbooking paper. This is a picture of my Grandad Milton Bishop.


 Back Pocket



Oh, this one... This is the idea that started it all. Well, the index card one started it all, but this is the first one that I actually made, for me...


Picture of my kiddos and me.


Milsty's Photo Phetish


My favorite picture


 Back cover, and Misha's legs!



I have made some of these for Xmas gifts. 
The kids have made some as gifts for friends as well.
I see no end to the possibilities!

The Evolution of an Idea...

Good Grief! I had that AWESOME idea from Target that I blogged about forever ago. I have made TONS of them. I have made lots of different kinds, lots of different sizes and uses...

No pictures taken, no pictures posted...

Shame on me.

I will get on that today... I promise, Ill even put it in my calendar to do list, right now... OK, so it's in the calendar. Now, I can't forget. Well I can, but it will be harder to do so...
