Good Evening well almost tomorrow

Hi all!
haven't been here awhile things got really busy!

My son has a broken leg and now his little dog has a broken leg too.
So I brought the little dog home with me from IL, cast and all to TN.
He did very well with the traveling.
Here's a picture of LG which is short for Little Guy.


Since he's been with me he's gained a little weight. He's 10 months old now.

Here he is below in the front yard.

Good Night Friends

Showcase of my Friends' Blog Interesting

Good Morning!
My friends were curious about blogs along with me. It all started with a simple question. What is a blog? One smart man came along and explained it. Well, I knew it was a type of journal that people post to everyday but did not know how to get my own blog. This smart man revealed to us where and how to get started. We all did him proud and he put us on his blog spot. Below are some of the blogs that we all have worked hard on.
The smart man who helped us get started by putting tacks in our seats is Marty.
Thanks Marty!
Here is his blog:
Marty sells a variety of items, right now he has Cabbage Patch dolls and some of the history on them. He goes into detail the Cabbage Patch Mania when it first started. Interesting and it brought back those memories for me.
Cabbage Patch Dolls are just one of the things he sells he also has other items as well.
Another pupil of Marty:
She talks about mosaics and art. She takes old china that is not suitable for resale and cuts it into beautiful Mosaics. Her story is hilarious of how she got started and she mentions that smart man Marty. She shows delightful pictures of her mosiacs. Check them out!
Another pupil of Marty:
She sells beads and has pictured the stone Larimar and details surrounding this beautiful stone. I didn't even know it existed until I read her blog.
Another pupil of Marty:
She has a dress store and she has some sexy dresses to make your man's mouth water. She also gives tips on how to keep the romance alive with your partner.
Don't miss out check out her blog.

A Big Thank You to Our Friend and Teacher Marty!

Laughter is the best medicine!









Here's a few to tickle your funny bone.


"Mr. Clark, I have reviewed this case very carefully," the divorce Court Judge said, "And I've decided to give your wife $775 a week," "That's very fair, your honor," the husband said. "And every now and thenI'll try to send her a few bucks myself."


A man is recovering from surgery when a nurse asks him how he is feeling. "I'm O. K. but I didn't like the four-letter-word the doctor used in surgery," he answered. "What did he say," asked the nurse. "OOPS!"

She married and had 13 children. Her husband died. She married again and had 7 more children. Again, her husband died. But, she remarried and this time had 5 more children.
Alas, she finally died. Standing before her coffin, the preacher prayed for her.
He thanked the Lord for this very loving woman and said, "Lord, they're finally together."
One mourner leaned over and quietly asked her friend,> "Do you think he means her first, second or third husband?"
The friend replied, "I think he means her legs."




Greetings!

Well, since I have varied interests I also sell other things.

I recently started making ACEOs which are pretty cool to make.Unfortunately my son was in an accident and I've been helping him as much as I can so no time for crafts.

For those of you that don't know what ACEOs are:

These are Art Cards Editions and Originals

THE BASICS:The only true rules to creating ACEO’s are:1) Size should be 2.5 x 3.5 the idea of the artist card is to keep one uniform size and the universal standard already recognized is 2.5 x 3.5. Any sizes larger or smaller than that do not classify as artist trading cards, they would be listed under other categories.

Here's a few examples of mine: Collage





For others put ACEO in the search on ebay. There are many talented artists!

That's all I have time for now as the house hold is waking up.
Hopefully, I'll get the hang of the blogging and make this more interesting.
Thanks for reading my blog.
