I absolutely adored him...

I did. I can't even begin to tell you how much I loved him, how much he meant to me. He was a very special man. He was my Papa.

He passed away yesterday at 6:15pm... I wasn't there, I didn't get to say goodbye, I didn't even get to tell him how much I loved him before he left...but he knew, I know he did.

This is one of the last pictures I have of him with my Sister and myself. I will cherish it always.

Give Nana a kiss for me Papa. I love and miss you already!!

Love,

Great news and some bad news...

The GREAT news is that OT is going away at work starting next week, YEAH!!! The other great news? I am headed to the Bay Area in California to visit my family for a week on Saturday, another YEAH!!

So what does no OT mean for me? I will be able to go back to my happy place. Yes, you heard me right "happy place." I will have more time for my hubby, more time for ME, more time for STAMPING and more time to EXERCISE! Yes my Peeps, it is time to get rid of this excess WEIGHT/FAT BAGGAGE! I am soooo looking forward to that. I am, really, I am!

Bad news though? Won't be able to purchase as many stamps as I have been lately. Yeppers, gonna have to cut back, wayyyyyy back. Gonna have to brown bag my lunch which is okay with me since it means I will be eating HEALTHIER, that's DEFINITELY a good thing.

Anywho, just thought I would share my exciting news. YAHOO!!

Looking forward to seeing more of you!

Red, White & Blue forever!!

Rwbthankyou

So patriotic, don't you think? Especially for a thank you card. Love these star stamps from Verve Visual. The "thank you" is from Papertrey Ink. I don't think I have ever use that ribbon before, at least, not until I made this card. LOL

Anywho, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU to all the men & women who serve our country, this card is for YOU!!

Have a SUPER day Peeps!

All stamps are from Odd Bird Planet and the paper is Basic Grey. Man, I do love me some Basic Grey paper!! Yummy!

Flying high on the wings of love...

Or so Super Fly Guy (from Odd Bird Planet) thinks....LOL

Obpflyhigh

Perhaps he is falling from the sky? I don't know, his little wings don't look strong enough to keep him up there. Perhaps he has gas and that is what moves him? Not really sure. All I know is this guy CRACKS ME UP!!

Hope he makes you "crack" a smile! LOL

Have a SUPER day Peeps!
