Not a great start.....

Ok, so I haven't gotten off to a good start on my blogging. It just seems like time flies, then its all over. Besides sharing the PC with my BF and hardly ever prying it from his hands, I have also been not feeling so well. Nausea every time I eat. I go through this phase every few months or so. It really sucks. I feel like I should be one of those government-insured drug heads that sits around and does nothing but has the government pay for everything for them. Here in Tennessee, that would be TennCare, and most of the people are on drugs and sell them, but sit back with their food stamps and lap it up. How can I get in that group? Must be nice to get it all and do nothing for it. Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to do drugs....just want to be lazy every now and then.

On th
e days that I do get the PC, I spend most my time on Facebook farming and whatnot, checking out Craftster, and I have become addicted to a blog by another girl named Holly. She and I share a LOT of the same tastes, from what I can tell about her blog. She loves photography (but she's really good at it), is in to ALL things crafty, and she has a really cool style. I think I have looked at her WHOLE blog, and she's got over 300 entries, probably more. Looking at her blog has inspired me, but there are many factors that hinder me from being as outgoing as her:

1) I work for a living....yes, she does to, but it is crafty too (she cuts hair)

2) She has a REALLY cool camera collec
tion...mine isn't all that great

3) She has a lot more time to craft than I do. If I had more time in the days, and actually feet better most the time, I'd be c
rafting like crazy.

BUT....I'm not going to let those things stop me. I am going to try and do better. I miss my crafting, I miss my feeling of accomplishing something and really being happy about it.

SO...if the BF will ever get in gear, and I can shake the current nausea wave, we're going to head the 30 minutes north to Murfreesboro to go to Hobby Lobby and spend my $25 gift card I won on a fill-out-a-survey website, plus use the 40% one item coupon I printed. Wahoo!

To end this entry, I thought I might share some pictures I've taken since last weekend, including the newest addition to the h
ousehold, Emma. I LOVE my kitty! Just don't like her kitty litter smelly box (duplex is too small to put it somewhere where we can't smell it...yuck).



Christyn, the BF's niece. She's such a cutie!

Caylee, Christyn's new baby sister.

Emma Kitty....she's so sweet!



Last but not least, a self-portrait. Like you wanted to see me, right? My phone doesn't take very good pictures, either. Oh well, its all good.

R.I.P Virginia George 5-28-10....you will be greatly missed "Ginny". Say hi to my mom up there for me. <3

Starting Over

I have had MANY blogs since I've become "internet savvy", and each one of them, I have fell apart at. I would blog for about a month or so then stop. I am hoping this one won't be the same. The longest blog I kept up was the one on my Myspace page, and I must say I wrote a LOT of good blogs, but for some reason, I just got lost. Lost in work, lost in life. Just lost.

So I'd like to start over. I'd like to blog like I used to, posting my pictures, interesting thoughts and things that have happened to me. Maybe they'll be interesting, maybe they won't. But if its not, you don't have to read it, right?

First things first, I had a tooth removed yesterday, and WOW am I hurting! I am trying not to have to take the pain meds because they make me nauseous, but then again, so does the pain, so what do ya do, right?

Before the tooth-pulling, my loving BF and I went out and visited my grandma and her new kittens. We have chosen the two we want to bring home with us when they are old enough, and actually we could have brought them home yesterday if it hadn't been for the fact that I had to go to the dentist before we could go home.

Of course, as cute as they are, I HAD to take pictures!


This one above is the one that I want to bring home with me. She's such a pretty little girl!


The yellow one is the one my bf Bugz wants to bring home. He's a little mean, but the more we play with him, the more gentle he seems to get.

I have always loved animals, and a cat is so gentle. I sat down with these guys and we fed them some of grandma's scraps from her lunch, to see if they would even attempt to eat. A few of them did, then crawled up in my lap! SO adorable! I can't wait to bring my baby home. The only problem? Got to come up with a clever name. Any ideas?
