Soldier Girl's Thoughts

Spool No.72

I love getting in my car and just going places alone most of the time and finding out where things are around me.

Going down a few roads and getting lost w/out my tom tom and then going down a few roads with my tom tom because shit I am not going to lie some stuff just looks the same to me around here LOL.

one thing I love stumbling across are fabulous vintage finds, stores, huts and lots. Now if I could just find things like this which I totally jacked from the Spool No.72 site. Then I would be in heaven.

need I keep GOING. I love mercantile items.

(pre-recorded post)

the best ..

Ya know what .. 

I am not the best at everything .. I am just damn good at what I do.

I am not the best mom in the world .. I am just great at doing the opposite of what was done to me as a child.

I am not the best photographer .. I am just one that actually knows her camera and breaks all the rules while trying to be the best I can FOR ME.

I am not the best scrapbooker .. I just took chances with my style and it worked.

I am not the best friend to have .. but I am also not the worse.

I am not the best housekeeper out there .. but I don't live in filth either and clutter.

I am not the best cook .. but damn it at least I know the basics to cook something even if it is in the crock pot.

I am not the best christian .. but I do know God and whether or not I choose to go to church on Sunday or not is my business it is not WHERE you worship that matters.

I am not the best writer .. I didn't need to be until it was time to write my Thesis.

I am not the best person .. but DAMN I try to be and I guess as long as I know I try fuck what everyone else thinks.

So to all your two bit pansies that think you are better than everybody else or want to assume that I THINK I AM because I strive to be GREAT at everything I do .. see those two cheeks that are connected by a crack. KISS EM.

first born blues

One of the things I try and tell my son is that sometimes FIRST is not always a guarantee

I tell ya this kid get's down so hard on himself and it can be very frustrating at times not just for me, but for him too. I guess more so for me because I try so hard to teach him to have a better attitude about that stuff. Ya know, kids are going to go through that and I completely understand ..  

Either way I love his tall ass. This whole size 9 MEN shoe is killing me and soon my pockets LOL. Good grief you would think he is swallowing the whole fridge.

Do you have this issue with your kids?

I did a layout for my kiddo using some Girls Paperie.

Here is a snap shot of my big boy. 

What the HELL am I going to do with these broads that are going to be calling my damn house. INSERT TOOTED LIPS AND EYE ROLL.

is no longer struggling to lose this weight

thinks that facebook has made her lazy

is struggling to stop snacking though

is shaking her head at people in business illegally, not paying taxes and destroying one shot only memories.

 is tired of helping those that are lazy

is tired of copy cats and bandwagon jumpers

realizes in order for change to work you have to embrace it

realizes that I need to push me and only me

wonders why so many of you coming from FB are reading my blog but never saying anything. Yes I SEE you.

Nostalgia: Madeline Books

FESS UP! No seriously am I the ONLY one that LOVED that little girl and her classmates .. 

was it me or did Madeline always seem to be a sickly little thing or always getting hurt?

I miss those books. I know they still have them out there.

just had to step back in time.

it was between Madeline, Amelia Bedelia, Munchichi, Gem or the Garbage Pail Kids and I just loved them all and then some..

I found a Madeline site HERE

What memory do you have when it comes to your childhood toy, book or movie?
