Each bottle will come equipped with a brush attached and a wide enough opening so that you can easily pour the product directly onto your project if you wish.This product has a water base so it works wonderfully with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist to provide you with a multitude of blending options.

Happy New Year!

I know I am a few days late, but it'll still work! I have been unable to post since there is something messed up with our home computer. It won't let us search or for me to login to blogspot. Crazy!

I hope everyone had wonderful holidays! I am always off work most of Christmas break, with the exception of coming in to do payroll 1 day a week. I enjoyed the days home with the boys! It was hard to get up this morning and get back into "routine". Luckily there wasn't any crying and everyone got up on time.

The boys loved Christmas! It was fun watching Dominiq really get into unwrapping his gifts since he now knows what is going on! The hardest part was keeping him to his toys so Eriq could enjoy his! Kelley and I got a new matress for our present to each other! I mean the one we had was only 12.5 years old!

We are still hoping Kelley will get on full time very soon! Fingers crossed! It would help alot since there has been craziness going on lately.

I did manage to get 3 layouts scrapped this weekend! I had been working on Tim Holtz 12 Tags of Christmas, completed 2. Then the craziness started. I was happy to get the 3 done though! I hope to get those in my next post!

Rememberance

October 21st marked 10 yrs since my dad passed away. I really meant to post that day with some pics of him, but I obviously did not get to it. I had not always been close to my dad. He and my mom divorced when I was 10. My sister and I lived with dad, and I basically raised my sister. He was never a bad parent. It's just that mom was my "friend" and let me do whatever I wanted. When I was a Jr/Sr in high school, dad and I became closer. Then I started working for him right before I got married, which brought us closer.
I had talked to him the last time on Oct. 20, 1999. He was at a training conference in Vegas. He called to check on me since I had a dr appt. Someone came into the office so I ended the call. I had wanted to tell him that I loved him, but I didn't. I know that he knew it though. The next day he was found in his room. He had had a massive heart attack. I remember being told right before the end of the day and calling Kelley to pick me up. He thought I was laughing, just the way I sounded. I handled all the funeral arrangements, and telling all of the family.
I can't say that it gets easier, but I thinks it helped that we had a good relationship. There are still times that I think I should call him about something! LOL! I miss him and always will. I think about him often and talk about him to my boys. I still get teary eyed that he is gone, but it is ok. I loved him and know that he loved me! I will try to post a few pics!

Thank you for reading! I will post later on some things I have been doing!

Change of Weather

Hello! I hope everyone has been well with all of this funky weather! I had a stomach bug the first week of September, a severe sinus infection the 2nd week, and a colon procedure Monday I am recovering from. Geez! I am getting my strength back though. I mean I didn't even have the energy to fix myself something to eat!

The dr did a flex sig or a short scope on me Monday to check the thickening they reported on in July. Dr said everything showed normal, thank goodness. The procedure wasn't like the most comfortable but bearable. It was the recovery afterwards I didn't care for at all. Just sick and bloated feeling for 2 days, better now though!

My hubby has changed positions at Budweiser as of last Friday. He didn't care to be on the trucks or to be a delivery driver. Now he is a Sales Support Rep and is being trained this week on cleaning Keg lines. He likes it much better and hopes to get a fulltime position soon.

The boys are doing just great! Eriq is enjoying school and soccer! His first game of this season he scored 3 goals and was very happy about it! Dominiq is saying so much more and is pretty good about going to his sitter's during the day.

I will post some pics soon!
