Football

Well, I just watched Miami lose to NC State. BOO! Sorry, NC people, but even when I lived there I didn't pull for NC State.

Have you been hitting the sells this weekend? I haven't. haha! Miami is crowded enough on a normal day, I have no desire to fight even bigger crowds at the mall. I usually do most of my shopping online anyway. It may not be as exciting as the Black Friday sells, but it's much easier!

When Miami hosted the Superbowl in 2007, the traffic was horrible. Everyone came for the game and wanted to stay on the beach. They all arrived by the Friday before the game and the traffic was horrible! It took me forever just to get home from work that day and I made sure I walked anywhere else I needed to go! I was happy that it rained on everyone during the game. LOL!

I said then that when the Superbowl came back to Miami I would be taking a vacation somewhere else that week. LOL! Looks like I've got until 2010 to plan that trip. LOL!

Anyway, today's word art is for all the shoppers out there. You can pick it up here

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

The fun weather is back!

The cold days have gone and the beautiful warm weather has returned. The last two days we've had highs in the 70's. Tonight it was warm enough to walk to Oliver's an enjoy sitting at an outside table with my friends. We talked about everything and nothing at the same time. Those are always the best conversations!

It was while laughing about everyone's Christmas plans that I decided to share today's wordart. It's funny how "going home" can still bring out the child and our childhood insecurities in all of us.

Problems with the 4shared link so let's try getting it here....

We had our Thanksgiving lunch at school and it was a big hit. I took in the candy bars I made using the wrapper I shared with you and they were a big hit. If you didn't get the wrapper you can still download it here. Big thanks to April for the great Thanksgiving kit I used to make it!

Speaking of April...She's got a great sale on her graphics from now to the end of November. Her kits are all 35% off at Scrap It Sassy Head over there and check it out!

Today you get the fourth and final Thanksgiving Bragbook page. I hope you've enjoyed these and are able to use them for your pictures. I would love to see what you do with them and I know April would too. Grab the BB page here



Here's another page I made using April's Seashore Wedding Kit. Doesn't it make all of you that are having cold winter weather wish you were in Miami? LOL!

OK, I have to go and I can't make any promises about what or when I'll post over the next couple of days so stay safe and enjoy your holiday!

Home Sweet Home!

As much as I enjoy going away I always enjoy coming home even more. It's true what they say...There's no place like home! Now if only I could get myself excited about going back to work. LOL! I know I shouldn't complain because Monday is bringing us one day closer to Twilight!

I've got two goodies for you today. Once celebrates being home again and one if for the Twilight fans. You can get them here...

Home


Twilight

Now, it's time for me to get some sleep. The alarm clock will be going off before I know it.

Packing...

I've spent most of the night getting my suitcase packed for the week. YUCK! I love to travel, but hate the packing and and unpacking. I usually put it off until the last minute (like I've done tonight) and pack a bunch of stuff I don't need while leaving behind a bunch of stuff that I do need.

Since I'll be gone for the rest of the week, I am going to pre-publish daily entries to the blog with requests that I've completed. If I get a chance I'll post from Saint Augustine, but no promises!

Here's a request for Crystal who asked that I do more with my lack of cooking ability. Hope you like it...

Housework

I spent most of last night doing some much needed things around the house. YUCK! Here's a little goodie for anyone else that hates doing housework as much as I do...

Days like this...

Would you believe I had more computer trouble? We thought we had gotten it fixed but there was spyware hiding in my computer. Anyway, I was on the phone with a tech guy until 2:30 this morning. That left me going to school with less than four hours sleep. Too bad we don't take naps in Kindergarten anymore! LOL!

Well, I got to school only to learn that the air conditioning was out in my building. That might sound strange to those of you that live where the weather is getting cooler, but this is Miami--- Home of year round air conditioning! Being in a classroom with 18 five year olds when the AC is out is no picnic.

I was born here, but I grew up in a small North Carolina town that I couldn't wait to leave after high school. Days like today, remind me of just how good those NC days were. I actually miss the winter sweaters and snow days. Oh, how I miss those snow days! The best ones were when it snowed during the night and you woke up to find everything covered in a beautiful white blanket, then you turned on the TV and learned that school was closed. Life was at its best on those days.

The weather man says that it's going to get cold here over the next couple of days. That means the high tomorrow is only expected to reach 72. LOL! Then is should slowly warm back up after that. Guess we're not going to get any sympathy from those of you that are already experiencing temperatures in the 50's, are we?

Anyway, I normally claim Florida as my home state and I do it proudly, but days like today just seem to carry me back. Here's a goodie for anyone that understands how it feels to miss a place you couldn't get away from fast enough...
