Nail Art Weekend

Helllooo there peeps ! Happy Sunday evening to you all. I hope you all had a great weekend and are now taking these last few hours of it to relax and get yourselves ready to face another week ! What did ya'll do this weekend ??

Friday I finally put a design on my short little nails and added a top coat.



Pictures kinda suck cause I'm using my cell to take them right now since I like... have no camera that works ! *cries* I know... sad, is it not? I think it is ! HAHA! Oh wells, life goes on I guess.

Friday night I had some friends over for dinner and games since the hubby and my daughter were gonna be gone on a Pathfinder camp out thing at the church with the Waycross Pathfinder group. So, Me, Ryan, David, Victoria, and Fern had a sketti dinner and some icecream cone cupcakes and played some Skipbo ! It was fun !! I hope we can do soemthing like that again soon ! I loves me some Fern and Victoria is like one of my kidlets!

Saturday I just kinda loafed around the house being lazy like you should do on Sabbath ! I even took myself a long nap in the afternoon! Saturday night I played around on youtube.com for a wile and searched eBay for make up stuff for cheap, and of course txted and facebooked. I found two other cool young ladies I like on youtube too that does make up! Makeup by Tiffany and Make Up Geek! I have subscribed to both of them and enjoyed watching them "do thaie thang" so to speak! Check them out if you get a chance !

Today I have been rather lazy, all but a few of these fake nail art designs I did today. I am limited on my colors right now because my daughter likes to run off with all of my stuff and leave it here and there and everywhere! I think I did some pretty cute ones though! I just HAD to do the blue and orange one for my AUBURN TIGERS who won AGAIN this weekend ! WAR EAGLE ! So, yeah, I kind of like them! Again, picture is rather blah but you know how it is ! I even made sure I added the nail color names and stuff for it all !! HAHA I m normally realllly bad at that kind of thing, so be glad I got it right this time cause it might not happen like that all the time with me. Just sayin. ;o)

Now and am just sitten around with the family, trying to ignore the football game the hubby is watching ( cause it's not the AUBURN TIGERS!! ). All the kids are home too but they are kind of doing their own thing I guess. Such is life in a house filled with teenagers I guess, huh? At least they arent running through the house being all LOUD and driving us nuts! Gotta learn to be happy with the small things !

Well, I am going to hush for now and try to enjoy the rest of my weekend. I hope you are doing the same out there fellow bloggers ! Catch you again soon !

What Make Up do you swear by ??

So, Ive been watching loads of make up things on youtube.com lately and Ive gotten alot of good advice about how to apply it and what kinds to use, but I am a normal stay at home mommy and I can't afford all those high priced make up and brushes most of the ladies use in their videos ! I thought maybe I could get a reach out here and ask what kind of things you all use? Make up, moisturizers , brushes, sun screens,nail polishes, you name it !! I am working on a list of my own and will share it soon, and maybe some pictures of my current make up haul!

Till then, check out this young lady. Ive watched almost all of her video's and I love her works ! MissChievous
She is great !!

x0x0,

Oh... and right now I am working on her concept for nail biting ! Check THIS out ! Will post pics of my "start" of this later on and keep you updated on my progress.

What She Doesn't Know

She knows almost all there is to know
from deepest depths of what is me
She knows my love for her is real
Unconditional, passionate, & free

But, what she doesn't know is,
That I'd walk for miles just to see her smiling face
That I'd spend my last dime just to send her a love note in the mail


What she doesn't know is,
That when I lay to rest at night, she is first and last in my prayers
That when I wake in the morning, it is her name that drifts to the front of my mind

What she doesn't know is,
That when I dream of forever, she and I are there holding hands
That when that song comes on the radio, it is her that floods the creases of my heart

What she doesn't know is,
That her pictures fill the rooms of my home, pages of my scrapbooks, and memories that I hold the most dear
That no matter how long between phone calls, I hear her voice ring in my ears so often that it feels as if an angel is singing to me always

What she doesn't know is,
That being near her makes my heart flutter in my chest, even after years of being the very best of friends
That I wake at night finding that I've called out her name again, and then cry myself back to sleep because she is not near

What she doesn't know is,
That I replay conversations we've had in my head over and over again just to feel her close to me
That I sit and watch my computer screen waiting for her to send me messages until the late hours of the night

What she doesn't know is,
That being a total goofball with her is the best part of being near her at times
That I look for ways to touch her as I pass by or sit close enough to her because her touch drives me wild

What she doesn't know is,
That no matter how many times I tell her that I love her, it never seems to be enough, because those words don't begin to cover my feelings for her
That every part of me yearns to be with every part of her in every possible way

What she doesn't know is,
That when faced with the thought of loosing what we have, I have been selfish to no ends
That when all my prayers have been answered, my heart breaks into a million tiny pieces

These are just some of the things,
That she doesn't know.

So, Creative Me huh ?? Yep... I am creative alright !

After looking at my life and the things I like to do with my creative side I decided to create a blog that kind of covers it all in one place cause I SUCK at updating like I should! I thought that if I had ONE blog to post it all on, maybe I'd be a bit better at updating ?? One can dream, right ? LOL

So, this blog will cover MANY things. Paper Scrapbooking when I am able to take pics and share with you all. Most of the time I am too lazy for that but yeah... you might get lucky ! Digital Scrapbooking! Those you might see more of cause it's easier to post! I also create digital scrapbooking stuff and will probably offer them as freebies here , as I am no longer a SELLING designer on any sites. With the Lupus I just couldnt keep up with demand, so now I do the stuff when I can and give it away. Luck you! Wood crafts! I like to create cute little signs and things to hang around your home and such. When I do, I will share pics with you, again... if I am not too lazy to take them and upload them ! hahaha I am starting to get into make up too... like really wild and pretty stuffs... halloween looks and fancy ball looks and princess looks and such. When/if I do some and take pics I will share them here. When I find new cool looks on youtube, I will share links here for you all! I also like to sew, so I might share stuff I make here. I do some of my own interior decorating too. I will share that stuff with you too. I also make flower arrangements from time to time. haha I also draw, write poetry, some short stories, and doodle alot. So yeah, you can see I do alot of crafty type things, so this will be my catch all blog for them all, as well as just normal updates about my life too at times.

Fair warning, I say what I think and I say it just how I want too, so this blog is not for the fait of heart or for those who think a cuss word will burn your eyes out of your head if you read them. I am bold , blunt, and often harsh. My poetry flows from my soul, so it often contains vivid depression and heated sexual references.

All this being said, I am a Christian. Yep, I am. AM I perfect? Hell no! Do I want to be, sometimes, but not really too often because if I was perfect, I would be DEAD! I am not ready to die yet, thanks! I do love God VERY much though and He is in my heart and life more than most might think. I don't judge others, so please don't judge me. That is God's job after all, so lets let Him have that one!

I am Married, and most of the time I am perfectly content. But , I am a woman and I will vent ! LOL I am also a mother, and I love my kids. Mess with them and I will fight to the death ! I have lots of kids that I claim as mine born from other women too, don't mess with them either. I bite ! I have a dog, and my hubby has a cat. Both are spoiled rotten and we like it that way.

Ok.... so there you have it. I will try to update when I can, but remember I do have Lupus and sometimes I just dont give a crap about a blog !

Peace, love, and french fries!

Chrissy ;o)
