Green

Jealousy is such a disgusting horrible little monster. It creeps up anytime it wants to and in tons of different situations. Why are some people more prone than others to develop jealous tendencies? Why do people have to go around ruining peoples trust and causing them to live a life full of this green eyed monster? That is NOT fair at all. Yes, I know what you are saying, LIFE IS NOT FAIR. Get over it right? I am one of those people. My trust of people was broken long long ago, and was chipped away even more with every friendship, and every relationship that followed. Friends never hold up their end of the bargain, they just come in and out of your life and don't make you the real friend that they were to you. Maybe every other female just wants aquaintances and one great best wonderful devoted friend is not enough. They need more more more. For me aquaintances are fine, but I want my one best friend in the whole world. I need more from her than I need from most people, but thats how I am. I'd rather get every bit of friendship from her, and give her all of mine than have a smidgen from a lot of people. Thus the reason the green eyed monster shows itself in that area. Men are a whole other ball game. They use, lie, cheat, abuse, and take the life right out of you and then you finally get smart and you go. But not quick enough to not lose that one more tid bit of trust you had left in you. They build up all this trust of yours and then they snatch it away and expect to just get it back when they want it. I can't do that well. I am not a good forgiver. Yes, I suck. Trust is something you must earn back when you are the reason it's gone. Don't get me wrong, my own husband had more trust from me than anyone in my life in the beginning. Then things happened and it was lost. It is however slowly building back up. He proves he loves me sometimes out of the blue. I wish this green eyed monster would just leave me and my family and my friendships alone.

Days Go by.....






This weekend we went to the farm. Love relaxing time away from cell phones and people. Of course, small doses of this is all I need. I came back a day early to spend time catching up on TIVO'd soap operas and scrapbooking. :). Gavin was sick this weekend. I think it's just teething but not for sure. No new teeth have popped up. He's just had a fever off and on and thrown up a few times since last night. I hate when he's sick, BUT he loves to cuddle with his mommy when he is! :). Now he is in bed and Mommy is eating graham crackers dipped in melted dark chocolate and drinkin' up ice cold milk. And watching Days of Our Lives....lol. Ahhhhh thats the life. The farm is fun for sure, just kinda hard for me to do much when I've gotta stick around with Gavin since he's so little. Gavin LOVES riding the four wheeler! We really have a blast on that thing. The guys were there also tearing all the trees down in the woods. It's emptying out quick, which is really sad, but when you've got 80 acres, whats a few trees? Chris takes great pride in working hard out there, and it's so great of him to take care of it! And everyone loves a sweaty dirty man! :D. Well here are a few of my layouts from last week and I'll post more when I do them tomorrow. Goodnight!

Decent Weekend




We had a decent weekend. Nothing major. We had Ethan this weekend. Saturday was soo sooo busy, we went to breakfast at my mom's, then went to see Chronicles of Narnia at the theater. And it was good!! And then we went to Sam's to do major shopping, got snow cones, and then went to Walmart. We were gone from home from 9am till after 5 pm! lol. Busy. Sunday I went to a Stampin' Up class. It was great. I really enjoyed it, it challenged me. Not that the layouts were difficult, but that I'm used to doing it MY way, and to copy someone else was hard for me. lol. I'll post the 2 page layout I finished from them, and then the other one from this weekend.

My husband was super sweet! For mothers day he painted my scrappy room for me! :) It's a lovely yellow shade! Here are some pics!

Today was a good day at work. No major fiascos (which seem to fill my days lately!). Gav was hom sick with daddy today. His asthma was acting up is all. Just needed some extra breathing treatments. He loves his breathing treatments now that we got him this binkie adapter for it. He is getting sooo close to crawling, but just gets so frustrated. I finished a couple layouts I'll post for ya tonight. And i also finished an entry in the circle journal i'm in. We are watching Lost right now and getting soooooooo confused. This show is BUILT on confusing the shit outta you!! Alright, of I go.....here are the layouts from tonight............

Pictures of my POSITIVE THINKING Circle Journal





Layouts I've done recently






COONEY!

Yes, we are all officially Cooney's! :) I was so excited! Monday we went and had Gavin's birth certificate changed to Gavin Cooney and had Chris added as Gavin's father. :). I know Gavin will really know how much Chris loves him when he gets older and we tell him all about this. And it's very nice that me and him now have the same last name. So now we are REALLY the Cooney family! I'm scrapping a family picture right now and I'll post it later!

My new job and more........

I really love my new job! At first it was very stressful because there were a couple people that seemed to not like me. But now they have come around and they realized the changes I'm bringing here are good changes. It's a great place to work and a great boss to work for. She is caring and will back her employees no matter what. I work less hours and I'm in a higher position and I get paid MORE money. :). Sweet.



I've been scrapbooking soooo much lately! I made all the mothers day cards for all the mothers in my life

16 Week Challenge - WEEK 1 Layout


Challenge was to do a layout of Awake/Asleep. :) This is what I came up with!
