I enjoy ____ now, but if anyone had told me that years ago, I would never have believed them.

I enjoy Haloween now, but I most def. wouldn’t have ever believed it if anyone had told me I would! I grew up in a neighborhood that didn’t have a lot of kids so I never really really got into it…I got to go to grandma’s and go trick or treating but even then it was a trek…soo…now that we live in a neighborhood with a ton of kids, it is spooook city!!! We had just moved in last year and pulled something together to get all ready for it and we were the hit of the subdivision…of course it could have been because we had dementors and we all know how popular they would be on haloween…And us being the overzealous people we are didn’t just have them hanging by the door…ohhh no…we rigged it up so the darn things would fly! Yep I said fly…we controlled it from upstairs window and let it fly down to meet the trick or treaters as they came down the walkway…all the kids loved it! We had foggers going, and too boot the house has an outdoor sound system (previous tenants doing) so we had spooky music running and I even convinced my mother to dress up like a witch :) Well of course this year we had to add stuff…so the dementors were still there but this time we had a skeleton that we made a coffin for and had painted him and put a black light on him…:):) Another hit :) Next year we are gonna make it so the skeleton opens his coffin lid and who knows what else…I just can’t believe how hooked I’ve gotten at decorating for haloween…ohhhh…and can’t forget the pumpkins and we are gonna do a ghost in the window…see…I’m a monster!!! And I gotta find a costume this year…I’m thinking Jane Jetson…here ya go…you think it would be quirky enough for me :):)

Jane Jetson

LOL Great isn’t it :):)

What sets me out from a crowd???

Oh wow…that is a tough one…hmmmm…For the most part I don’t stand out…I’m one of those that blends in, not just phisically blends in but even on the personality level…I’m a radically versital kinda girl…I get along with just about everyone..and no I’m not just saying that! People tend to flock to me because I’m so easy to get along with…I really don’t try to stand out (mainly because I’m shy in groups unless I know them) I’m a watcher for a bit…But then of course if I know everyone look out! I can be a live wire sometimes :) So I guess overall I don’t stand out, I’m just me!

Ohhh…wait…according to Holly my hair makes me stand out…she claims I have a new hairstyle everytime she sees me :) But that is just a blah on my part…Indecisive 101…

Obviously you can tell I really really don’t know the answer to this one..I’m not even good at guessing…so I guess that makes it a question to all you…What do you think sets me out from the crowd??? Anything??

To get away…

ohhh..to get away…that peaceful, tranquil, dream world..oh wait…let me get my head out of the clouds! Actually lately..to destress and unwind i’ve been flocking toward my camera. I have found there are some pretty awsome things that I look over and around EVERYDAY that when captured in a picture can say and do volumes. I never would have thought my very own backyard could be as magical as it is!

of course around 2:00 am picture ops are kinda scarce! So then I migrate to the craft room and my computer or sculpting! It isn’t gonna be long though and I have a feeling my late nights will involve studying :) I’m gonna go back to school for Graphic Design! On one hand I’m WAY WAY excited! I know…what is wrong with me…it is school..I know…but hello…I spend my wind down time playing on my computer with Photoshop and such…so how AWSOME would it be to do that full time one day…but then again…here is the but…with my full time job now, plus miss Savannah, and the fam….can I really pull off classes! Well we will see…i’m gonna give it my all!!!!

Ohh..and this is getting posted today instead of yesterday because my Sister in law came to town!!!!!!! Along with Krystal!!! YIPPIE!!!!!!! So needless to say we went out to eat last night and stayed up chit chatting so…I wasn’t on the computer ONCE! Can you believe it! And looks like I’m not gonna get to it tonight either…I have a tree I have to put ornaments on :) But then it is picture time :) Ohhh…sad note…the mouse topper got broken :(:( so no more cool mouse…I’ll work on sculpting a new one for next year maybe! oh yeah…in all the free time and all :)
