Caardvarks Color Challenge


Here is a card for the color Challenge to use Black /White / and Hot pink the rhinestones are hot pink but hard to see in photo ad the dots look silver around the card but really are white.. I had a friend of mine take the picture cause the scanner omg it was really out of wack.. My camera was dropped and has funny tones to it so we are looking for a cheap point n shoot for me..
Anyone can join in here the blog link CAARDVARKS

OMG I can hardly take it....

So today the postal carrier brings our mail I leave it till a few minutes ago and i start opening it then the boxes well I see one that's stamped on and it' s pretty light well it says received damaged Received unsealed.. Ok so why don't you send it back to sender not to me It's a freaking empty box they put three pieces of tap e and forward to me WHY DO I WANT AN EMPTY box... I am furious yes I can scan the box and send it to the person who sent it to me but I should not have to do this.. Last week a picture CD which is useless to anyone if your not in the pictures and today this No I am not blaming the currier but somewhere someplace this happened in one of the facilities or something This is just outright craziness

Well thanks for the RANT

Package Nitemare

So I have to give a little rant nonetheless of the lovely postal service I have been receiving. I had a box sent to me in July which I kept looking for and nope nothing I asked all the neighbors well when they got back from vacation one gone two weeks the other gone three and an empty apartment nothing nada so then in the begin of August someone sends me a envelope nope that not received So I ask again last week nada nothing Can't get the post master on the phone so I decide to go to post office to make a report that my stuff is being stolen Long Story short the pkgs are there at the post office one marked 7/23 and the other 8/5 So I ask when would you return these to the senders since they clearly have their name marked or where do they go She could not answer me hmmm
So here is the icing on the cake after this round about I yet have a DVD with photos coming to me and yup guess what the package comes looks like a rat chewed it and it's covered with a baggie saying contents received damage Missing contents yup No DVD they are only pictures and I can get them from my friend but really this is just outrageous but I guess they are out there someplace those missing packages. I'm hate to get a P.o. box cuz I have enough on my plate already I have to think it thru I'm just in total ahhh.. I basically send most of my stuff with tracking on it in some form just cuz there is so many horror stories out there.
Well come back tomorrow there will be the Sketch for Unscripted Sketches revealed

My last trip what a whirl wind Duck in and Duck out of town

Well I know I probably the last of the last but there was 200 of these yup First time for me to taste them I am not a big drinker and now I even know how to make them. These little Jello shooters are very flavorful
It was a whirlwind trip in and out non stop four hours of sleep lots of laughs fun and not to much scrappiness went on more laughs, fun I didn't even take my scrap stuff with me hahahaha cuz I had no intention of scrapping it was a last minute in and out in a flash was so much fun Crop Girls is a very cute little store I'll go back next time Thanks for the dinner Jan Skip really enjoyed meeting Larry so we will be back on that invitation. I'm in town who knows when that will be it was fun to come at the drop of a hat with 24 notice I don't do things like that to often Next time I will be staying a bit longer cause I 'll need more than 4 hours of sleep.

Looks who's coming to town


It's been a while since she's been to town. I am really happy she is coming I will even get to see for two weeks in a row.... We have a lot of plans and lots to catch up.. I forget she isn't always here to know the day to day life of things.. She will be treated like a Queen for the weekend between Me and her she calls her second Mother.. She gets waited on hand and foot... Last weekend she went to her grandmother's and Aunt's and took her laundry she watched movies and didn't fold one sock it was all her laundry what is wrong with this picture. Spoiled Kid that's for sure.... So it will be short and not enough time..but just glad that it will be. So probably not to much computer and hopefully I can remember the responsibility of my charger for my phone..

I am hoping someday I'll get back to Az

I hope that someday I'll be able to be back in Arizona.. I so miss a lot of things. My mom so hates being there because she feels like she's alone. She has my sister now which I am so grateful for and I hope it helps her if I'm there to it would probably help she just feels very alone. I feel so aweful being away from my kid although they need wings to sprout and grow I miss her so much just I feel like I'm missing out she's an adult but doesn't mean I love her any less. I just hope that somehow it will magically happen that somehow I can get back there. I just wish I could drop it all and go... but will see Just pray for me all that someday I can get there it's a dream I'd love to fulfill.. I've been hoping for a long time.. just some thoughts needed something back in March to post so I thought of how hot it is to but you just stay in doors mostly... I have become a real home body I don't really go anywhere unless it errands for the grocery store, etc.

Happy Monday June 1

It's already 1/2 way thru the year it's hard to beleive yet it is here. The time comes and goes so quickly the older I get the faster it comes. Still think about these little guys all the time. They are in great hands I didn't think anyone would spoil them more than us but oh boy these dogs are spoiled I am just grateful that they went to a good good home where they are being loved
