I got poked!

I got acupuncture for the first time today. I have been having really bad migraine headaches and the doctor told me they were stressed related. So, I went in a got poked. It was AMAZING! Seriously, if you have never had it, get it done. I have never felt so calm and at peace with the world. I haven't felt this euphoric since I was a kid. 

Dear you know who....

Dear Sun~
Please come back. I'm sick of the rain. I need my vitamin D damnit!

Dear abusers~
Please stop committing the horrible acts. When you hurt someone it has a ripple effect and it hurts everyone, not just one person.

Dear Mark~
I love you, thank you for being my inspiration and making my life amazing

Dear out of town friends~
I wish you lived closer to me. I don't like long distant relationships.

Laying in the sun

It was such beautiful weather that I decided to lay in the grass and take a nap. I just got me a "hand me down" camera and decided to take pictures of the wonderful sunshine.

Here is a picture of my pink chucks I just bought. I love them!

And of course, a cute picture of Lola with her favorite ball

A month of blogging

One of the things on my 101 list is to blog everyday for a month. I'm a few day behind but I am going to try to do it. I am also trying to be a vegitarian. So far so good (granted it has only been a few days but Hey, I'm doing it). Trying to find foods that I like is the hard part.

Shag for a friend.

I did this for a very special friend of mine. It is eventually going to be a pillow. The white stitching is actually glow in the dark. She loves Shag's art work so I thought I would give her a pillow. I almost scrapped it but with the hubby's encouragement, I kept going.

Tattoo swappy goodness

So, I joined the tattoo swap on Craftster (one of my favorite places on Earth! If you haven't checked it out, you should. www.craftster.org) Here are the goodies that I made amyracinrose. I really hope she likes them. I had so much fun making everything.


First, an iron on shirt-pretty simple and really doesn't need an explanation.

Second, a Sublime Stitching tattoo pin up pillow. I need to take a better picture, but there is some beading on there and it says "cutie" in the heart. She loves "candy" colors so I did them in pinks and blues.

This last one is of resin coasters. The images are fabric and they are resined over. I was a little worried about how dark they turned out but I really like them. I'm thinking I might make a set for myself.

My Guy...

Nothing you can say can tear me away from my guy. That's right, my main man! The man of the hour. He's the bee's knees, the cat's meow. My hubby!

Most people know him as OMP (old man Pedersen) but under that grouchy exterior lies a heart of gold. I love being silly with him. He keeps me grounded. I think he's a pretty good guy that I plan on having in my life for a VERY long time!
