SPURS WON FINALS!!!!
Okay it has been a while since I have posted but I am back!
The Spurs won the FINALS!!!! WOOOHHOOOO!! For those who know me I am not a big sports fan but with SA being a big town to support their team hey, how could I NOT watch the last few games. Let me tell you it was a nail bitter too for game 7!
As side note as I was going to eat lunch after helping Paula with getting the Reading & LA closet cleaned we bumped into RASHEED WALLACE!!! Wow my first celeb and I didn't even know who he was. He was coming out of Panda Express and getting into a taxi as we were getting out of our cars. I whispered to Paula "Hey isn't that a b-ball player?" And me being a non sports person didn't know who or what team he played for but it was obvious he was a b-ball player. Anyway Paula said she thought so too but wasn't sure. Well when we went into Panda Express everyone was talking about who it was. Boy he doesn't look the same in real life. He wasn't that tall and was real skinny LOL.
I wanted to watch the Today show this morning but D*&(&* I missed it. Dad told me about how arrogant Tom Cruise was and how he got into an arguement with Matt Lauer. My infatuation with TC was out a long time ago but this further makes me disgusted with him. As a teacher I see kids everyday who are ADD/ADHD who NEED meds and their parents refuse to give it to them andwho suffers? The kids big time. I understand where they are coming from but you see such a HUGE difference in these kids. Before meds they can't focus or stay on task and get bad grades or are behaviour problems. After they are able to sit and concentrate and do work and behaviour usually improves too (although it may not). I am NOT for drugging them so bad they don't know which way is up or am I saying ALL kids who have ADD/ADHD should be medicated since sometimes there are alternative options. But saying that it doesn't work or is wrong to give kids is (gasp!) stupid! (As a teacher we are told not to say this and I even had a parent tell me that it was a curse word)
Okay off my soapbox. Talk to ya later!

Blue Bonnets Elements 1
This is a my Blue Bonnets Kit Elements for the Element Kit Gang Yahoo group I am a part of. It has been sooooo fun making my own elements!
Blue Bonnets Fibers
These are some fibers for my Blue Bonnet kit. I tested several brushes for this and I am still not sure which one I like best. Some of the responses from EKG has been mostly for 1 and 5.
It Works!
I am so excited that I have started this! I had trouble at first with posting the picture but Ashley Wren helped me by pointing me to photobucket. I still need someone to help me figure out how to use Hello! tho. If you can help me please email me!
I have been so busy working on my new kit and doing my cirlce journal. I have been staying up til about 1 am to work and will have to stop this before I have to return to school in August. Yep, I am a teacher! I teach third grade in Texas land of the TAKS TEST! Dum Da Dum Dumm, DUMM! (evil music LOL)
When school starts most of my blog will probably focus on school since it basically consumes my life. For any of you who teach you totally understand. Although it has gotten so much better since I passed the 5 year mark
See Ya!

Daddy's House
This is my first page I made for my ABC Album I am making for Father's Day. I am using the June Heart Snip Kit by POTH for all of the pages. It will be a 8x8 album. I hope I have enough time to finish it! Dad is going out of town during that week so we will celebrate after he comes back which gives me more time!
