okay so i wanted to do two challenges on one lay out. so i decided to do the sketchy challenge, which i must say was hard for me to do, and the acrylic challenge. i like this LO and yet i'm not totally happy with it kwim? anyway i posted them on here as seperate pages so that you can see it better. i have a stitching program but couldn't get it to stitch right and the pic of them both together doesn't show it very well. i really need to get a scanner and a good digi camera. but those will come in time i hope LOL.

swimming

i was reading julie's blog and she was talking about her kids learning how to swim. it then dawned on me that i haven't said a word as to how ashley is doing thise year. that is why i love reading other pp's blogs, it gets me thinkin. anyway we set up the pool at the beginning of may because it was so stinkin hot and every year ashley has to get used to it again. I wish i had pics, but my digi camera stinks and my canon is out of film and we are sooo incredibly broke right now that i can't buy film. sad i know but hopefully soon that will change. anyway so ashley started off with her floaties (water wings) and after about a week she tried to go with out them and actually remembered how to doggy paddle. the pool is 18 ft across and i brought her half way and she swam to the ladder. i couldn't believe it LOL. last year she was doggy paddling and swimming under water. she was so excited. maybe i will just take pics of her with my crappy digi camera, i guess it is better then nothin LOL. so the other day i tried to see if she would try under the water again and she said no that she needed to practice LOL, so i said okay lets practice. so i stood about four feet away from the ladder and counted to five and then she did it again. i was soooo happy. she hasn't tried it again since but it made me happy that she tried it that once. i'm sure b4 the end of summer she will be swimming underwater like she was last year. i think that i will take pics when she does it again and edit this post and put them on here, crappy pics are better then no pics.

i wish....

i wish i would get over this exhausted feeling. i am sooooo freakin tired i feel like i can't move. i need to dig up my blackberry startings and move them so i can have black berries next year or maybe this year but i doubt it. i love blackberry pie and mom said she would teach me how to make blackberry jelly, nummy. i'm going to plant them along a fence that i don't care if it gets covered in thorny blackberry bushes LOL. it is going to be along the fence of my mine and my neighbor who stole my cat for 6 months. man was i pissed at them. my cat is an outside cat and the house that they bought was empty for a long time so he would go over there to sleep since he doesn't like my dogs. anyway he would check in with me everyday to get fed and would walk with me to the mail box, it was quite cute, and i have had him for 12 years now. well when they bought the house we introduced ourselves and i told her that the white cat was mine. next thing i knew he wasn't coming home to check in and i started freaking out. drove around looking for him thinking that he might have gotten hit by a car. so then i started asking neighbors if they had seen him and when i asked her she said "ohh he is yours?" like she didn't know. apparently she had been feeding him canned food (i only feed him dry because it is better for their teeth) and that is why he wasn't coming home. so asked her to quit feeding him that he was my cat, she said okay, but then didn't she kept feeding him and then letting him inside LOL. he is an outside cat for a reason. if he is left inside for too long even with a cat box (and yes he is neutered) he will spray whatever he feels like spraying lmao. My husband even took over some LO's that i had done showing them that we loved our cat, and then said that she should do what she felt was right. well she kept right on feeding him, the bitch, so he was over there for a long time and then he started popping in at my house every once in a while. well finally after 6 months he was home for good. i think that he started spraying on everything LOL and that is what got her to quit feeding him. so now my cat is back home where he belongs, walking with me to the mailbox. okay well the photo upload for blogger isn't working so i just used photobucket. anyway sorry it is blurry but you can see how pretty and cute he is. pixel and oscar grew up together and loved playing. oscar is now gone, :(, he had a tumor in his belly when he was 12 yrs old and we had to put him down.

okay well nevermind because that isn't working right either and now i am very cranky.

so back to my point..... that is why i am going to plant the blackberry bush on that part of the fence. i hope it bugs the shit out of them LOL. anyway gotta go cook dinner.
