Guess what I did this weekend??

Ok, so I know I'm a day late...you love me tho...right? Thought so. So this weekend I decided I would break out of my funk and get some work done. Well, when I went into my scrap room I was met with a disaster. I was discouraged so I turned on Lifetime and started to watch Army Wives. (Great show unless you can't deal with anything military without getting choked up. I'm getting there...) But I digress. So I cleaned my scrap space!! Wanna see? Thought you might. Soo here it is in all it's glory. Keep in mind I only get 1/2 of the office and I have a room full of stuff.

So Sunday morning I took a break from cleaning my space and went to one of my best gal pal's house. Some of you may know her, and for those of you who don't, let me just tell you she is fabulous and a girl couldn't ask for a better friend. She took me to see Sex and the City, and I loved it. It was definitely a great way to escape the boy at home and the company made it all the better. After the movie we went to Bahama Buck's and back to the Casa to hang out for a bit. Then I got out the camera and captured a few sweet moments.
This is a picture of Aleida and her gorgeous little angel, Bella. She is the kinda little girl that makes Mama's proud and Daddy's nervous. She's so sweet but she's got a wild side that is gonna keep her parent's on their toes as she gets older. I only hope to have a little beauty of my own one day.



So I know you all want to see Vegas pics..they're coming...I promise. I'm still sorting through them and hoping to have a slide show up in the next couple of days. I'm off to grab a snack, a shower and then head to bed. Y'all be good and be safe!
Hugs!!

Getting out of my funk

So, I know my posts have been very few, and very far between...more so lately. I've just been in a crazy, uncreative funk. Today that stops. I have been MIA for far too long and I've been neglecting my art,k my firneds and my favorite scrappy haunts online. So this will be a quick post because I'm on a secret mission, which I will share later...not a mission for anyone but myself...but you will see my end result later tonight or possibly tomorrow.

So I bid you all good Saturdays as I dive into my scrap room and prepare to work. I love you all and will have pics and a much lengthier post coming.

Vegas Baby!!

Hi Friends!
I know I'm not good at updating, but I have an excuse for next week. I'll be in Las Vegas!!! I am so so so so excited. Dave and I are cleaning up the apartment, finishing some laundry and packing 'cause we leave in 14 hours!

I hope you all have fabulous weekends and great weeks. I'll pull the slots for all of y'all. (And Aleida, I'll be scoping out good places for us 'cause I have a feeling we'll need to plan a girls trip there someday.)
Love y'all and be safe!!
Hugs,
Jessi

Small updates and BIG frustrations

Howdy Folks! I know I promised pics like 2 weeks ago, but I have hit a few snags. Aparently the USB cable that came with my new camera is BS 'cause it don't work with my 'puter. *sigh* I don't have a card reader ....yet...so I need to run and get one so I can post pics soon.

I've also been away because I really feel like I lost my mojo. Not really sure what the prob has been, I just know that every time I walk into my space I just feel so uninspired and so ....blah.... I'm hoping the worst is behind me now...it was a good weekend.

Now for the updates. This has a been a whirlwind of a weekend. Friday was Dave's birthday so I took him to CGX to pick up a few vintage games for our Darth Vader Atari. I know, completely nerdy, but it makes him happy and that makes me happy. As we were headed out and on our way to dinner, work calls. I took Dave home to deal with work and we dined on the gourmet goodies of Burger King. ;) Ok, so Birthday dinner was a bust. TO make it up to him I took him to Blue Mesa for lunch. It was AWESOME!!! It is beauutiful and classy and unlike and mexican restraunt I've ever been to. If you're in Dallas, I highly recommend it. Then we stopped by Siegles to stock up on the essentials for a small Birthday Party. For those of you who know me, you know I'm not a drinker...I was last night. Nothing big, but I did have a few drinks and we had a great time. Now, let me start by saying I don't condone drinking and driving at all....but Mario Kart with a buzz is HILARIOUS! A good time was had by all.
Today I went to Mom's and picked up my MSD packages from QVC. And Aleida, you will be very proud of me. I got the 7gypsies ATC holder! I also got some other yumminess to play with . I'm hoping to get a new USB cable so I can start sharing my pics.

On other news, one of my favorite gal pals also had a birthday this week. Happy Birthday Aleida! I know it's a little late, but you know me...always late. Love you girl and hope you had a fabulous week. You've got Happy Mail coming your way this week.

Well, I'm off to rearrange my scrap space in hopes of jump-starting my mojo!
Have a great Sunday!!

Happy NSD!!!!

National Scrapbook Day is upon us and I could not be MORE excited. I was sick today, which sucked, but I'm feeling much better now. So now I'm sitting in my scrap room, gotting down goals for tomorrow and setting challenges for me and Mom. We are going to spend the whole day together, scrapping, shopping and munching out some yumminess.

I promise to take pics and post all my goodies tomorrow. I hope you get the chance to play a little, or alot and celebrate NSD!
Hugs!!
