Soldier Girl's Thoughts

Feelin Groovy

Like almost Retro like but yet and still I almost put circles on it .. and decided to do some "lines" instead .. what the heck .. does not matter but I love the color of the background paper ..

 

Holiday things that I am just not into .. but I would like to start maybe getting into them .. I mean I do not want to go all my life feeling like I am a scrooge ..

• baking cookies and pies and cakes and shiz
• making scrapbook pages and layouts that are holiday based
• decorating the inside and outside of my home ..
  
• singing carols and drinking pumpkin spice tea
• making homemade gifts and .. and ...
  

UMMM NO NEVERMIND .. I think I am just find with how I do things now .. just not a themed person .. but I do get it if others are .. but maybe ONE day .. I might jump on the bandwagon .. damn .. I am just not FEELING IT .. this year .. or the past 17yrs .. so .. maybe I will step outside of my only having a Christmas Tree  .. and then .. but I move to much for all that .. extra packing and storing and yard sales and all that .. I'll pass ..

I do however .. look forward to moving so that I can have a nice new bathroom, new bed sets, new everything .. well for the stuff I am tired of see'n .. it always seems to find it's way in the trash can .. or me shoving it down a neighbors throat .. LOL

Pampered Chef Question of the Day:  

DO YOU WASH YOUR STONES?.....

I DO .. and I have been told I should not but they

cook just the same and better each time I use them

.. so am I wrong for "washing them"?

Lift Yo-Self ..

see this familiar LO below well it is on the October Afternoon blog today .. using OA Road Map collection .. it is one of my favorites and one of my favorite collections .. of my gal pal Kimberly Brimhall. . . ..

                                                         
                                                                                                                                 

  you would be surprised at what you come up with .. oh wait an almost identical layout ... with maybe a "few" changes ..but that is why I decided to lift myself using their new paper collection Farm Fresh .. you will not see this one on the blog .. sorry.

 

more layouts coming soon using Report Card and Farm Fresh ..

OFF TO add it to my pile of scrapbook pages that need to go in books .. and I do mean PILE .. almost disgusted with myself for letting them just sit in a pile on the shelf in my scrap closet ..  and no books .. What ya got planned for the weekend .. I will do a little bit of scrapping and that is it ..

I am going to make my mom a mini album for Chirstmas .. and I am not a fan of repetition .. so I have to make this one fun .. and funky .. so I might have to blend some Sassafras, Jillibean and October Afternoon together ..

I am in PCS mode .. I have so much little shiz to take care of .. going back overseas is exciting and fun but also a pain in my flat ass .. well because now I have to put my shiz back in storage for another 4 yrs and NOW to DECIDE what goes back .. mind you we just came here a year and a half ago from Japan .. so who's complaining ..

Stay Safe out there  .. my heart and prayers go out to those affected by both tragedies at Ft. Hood and Orlando.

Picture Pages ..

with  .. POINT BLANK - PERIOD ...

Head on over to my challenge blog and get your mojo going and get inspired by the guest designers and the design team .. and let me tell you .. the inspiration does not stop there .. the gallery is full of projects that are so good and deep and motivating ..

Here is my take on Prompt # 3

 

Journaling reads:

she fades away behind her eyes and cries but she leads her army of demons

.. but somewhere in her spirit she feels it fading..her smile..then she realizes her beauty ..

.once she grabs a hold of her charming spirit she then shares it with her mind .. and seeks peace .. of an abused girl.

This month our sponsor is Shabby Chic Crafts ..

Have fun ..
