Labor Day ~ Looking for a new dish wand brush thingie!

September 1, 2008 | By Heidi | Filed Under: scrappy | Leave a Comment

 
It’s Labor Day! And I’m off work, of course…praying and hoping that all goes well with our contract tomorrow and everything. I’m not worried about it, but I just want it to be over…either way. Let’s just get on with it and move on…I hate this unknown and waiting bullshit. lol enough already!!

I’m finally trying to get the dishes done. Every time I’ve went to do them, I’ve done a load and that’s all…so then they continue to pile up. Well I have one load in and when it’s done, I’m going in for the next load. I would like to finish them if possible! They need to be done.

I’m having a problem with my dish wands though. Right now I have two that are like the one below on the left. One is a Scotch Brite one and the other is from Target I believe and may be an o-cel-o one or else it’s Target’s brand. They both leak soap. Now that I’m looking…they’re both made by 3M.

 
I also have a different scrubbie wand like the one on the right that does not have a soap dispenser on it. I got it at Bed Bath and Beyond and I love it!! It’s made by Casabella. They had one that had a replacable brush on it, but I don’t think it had a soap wand.
I’m looking for a good soap dispensing wand that doesn’t leak. I may try the oXo ones, they have a few different ones. They even have one that’s metal! LOL
Does anyone have any suggestions?? I hate that these leak!!
Thrilling conversation, isn’t it… Ok on to different and better things…how about scrappy type things??
I read on Vicki’s blog that if you register for Scrap N’ Art’s eZine you will get three free full kits. She showed pictures of two of them and the other was a surprise. I registered and I’ll be honest…it was originally for the freebies, but it’s actually a really good magazine!! I loved reading it and seeing all of the digi layouts and hybrid projects. Plus, it has some how-to’s in there too. I also downloaded the last issue (and got those freebies!) and that one was also awesome. They do a great job! If you haven’t checked it out, make sure you do. Oh!, and there’s also coupons to their store in there. LOTS of them! Like every artist has one. Check it out, you won’t be sorry!
I’ve been saving this and adding to it inbetween doing the dishes. They’re almost done. 2nd load is in…see, I told you they were ALL dirty!! lol…we are pigs, I know. I despise doing the dishes! But one more load and they will be finshed and the kitchen will be clean!! Woo Hoo!
The hubbs is on his way home…he worked a full day today, so he’ll be really tired. He’s got a full schedule this week…which is good moneywise, but not really good for his health. We’re going to BBQ these yummy apple maple chicken sausages and have chips with them. I want to eat outside, but he probably won’t go for it…lol not after working in a hot store all day!
I will try to make a scrappy page later on, since my shows are on tonight and I’ll be in here most of the night.

Ugh!!!! Topaz Got Into The Garbage AGAIN!!!

August 31, 2008 | By Heidi | Filed Under: scrappy | Leave a Comment

This stinking dog!! I swear he’s gonna kill himself doing this! It’s totally my fault, I left the can open. I thought about it when I got to my mom’s, but I thought that dh was coming home shortly after I left…no a FEW HOURS after.

Which gave the dogs just enough time to get into the trash and pull it all from one end of the house to the other. There were even cat food cans IN THE BED!!!

Now, I have to keep an eye on Topaz and pray he doesn’t have a seizure due to his garbage can escapades. I swear, he’s SO bad.

On a good note, I did get an outfit for my sister’s wedding shower next weekend and her wedding in October!! I’m excited because I had NO CLUE what I was going to wear. I also got a night gown that’s SOO comfy and a shirt for work. I got my sister’s shower gift too…and had it wrapped, but like a dummy, I dumped my thai food in and on the present bag so I will need to rewrap it this week. I’ll have to get a big bag.

Here are the shirts I got…

I got this shirt in Purple…or Berry I think it’s called for the shower. I’ll wear it with black pants and shoes. 

And I got this shirt for the wedding. It’s casual and this is a bit dressier than the other one. I’ll wear this with the same black pants and shoes.

Nice thing is, I can also wear either to work if I want to. 
And speaking of shopping…here are a couple of the new kits I got this weekend!

I can’t link the graphics so I’ll post the links here…from the top clockwise:

Flourish kit by Designs by Krista…(1 of 3 that I bought of hers)
Dusk till Dawn by Flergs…(i bought another kit and some glitters too)
Bubble Bath by Kristen Aagard…(1 of many lol…i LOVE her alphas!)
Autism Speaks…I bought this because 100% of the proceeds go to Walk Now for Autism, I don’t know anyone with an autistic child, but I’m willing to donate.

Ok, so I went a little buckwild. Well…my husband buys CD’s, movies, hats and t-shirts. I buy scrappy kits.

Early Start

August 31, 2008 | By Heidi | Filed Under: scrappy | Leave a Comment

 
I was fortunate enough to be up at the butt-crack of dawn this morning. Mostly because the hubbs had to work early this morning, but also because we have this grey kitty who likes to lick the blinds on the window above our bed. He also likes to lay on pillows, knead into necks and lick faces, hands, or fingers and eat hair. And he returns if you kick him off the bed. It’s so annoying…I mean, sometimes it’s ok…he’s really a lovey kitty, but when I’m trying to sleep, leave me alone!!!!
And then as I’m sitting here, the little Razzle kitty keeps climbing up on my shoulders to sit there with his butt and tiny little hook tail on my face. I finally got the squirt bottle because I’m crabby and he’s annoying me. 
I’m only crabby because I’m tired and wide awake now and won’t go back to sleep unless I take a nap later on…which I probably will because it’s entirely too early to be up on a Sunday!

I’ve kind of been in a scrappy slump…although, I did whip up a little piratey page today!

Whenever we go to Disney World, we dress up like pirates near the pirate ride and take pictures. We also do “Crazy Hat Day” and take pictures of ourselves with all of the crazy big hats that are sold all over Disney World.

I’m going shopping with my mom and sister in a little bit. I should actually jump in the shower right now. We’re going for clothes for my other sister’s bridal shower that is next week. Hopefully I can find something decent. I hate shopping for clothes!!!
