DECONNECT - WHAT A CHALLENGE (FOR ME!)

I found this challenge to be disconnected here. This is a challenge for me, to take a day and not connect with anything that can be connected. I would say for myself that would be this computer. To take a day and not just admire the rest of you bloggers and stampers creations and do some creating myself. You might say that I have been rather disconnected lately. I do apologize. I have been dealing with some personal issues lately, which include not being motivated and inspired to create. So, I want to challenge myself to a day of not connecting online and creating myself. This will probably be Monday or Tuesday, as usually the weekend is full of other life for me. Want to join in this challenge?

GIRLY BRONC BUSTER

It's my dd Melanie's 9th birthday tomorrow. She really like the bronc buster set in the SU Spring/Summer catalog, so I decided to get it and make her birthday card with it. Now my challenge was to make it look girly. So I used pinks for it. I'm quite satisfied with how it turned out. It is different then what I had originally thought of. But, that's usually what happens too me. Can't create what I have in my head. I know that's weird. So you can add that to the list of weird things about me.

LOL! ANOTHER EMBROIDERED CARD.

I know I said I would not do this too often, but I think I have a good excuse for this one. I made this card for my friend's Birthday. She is an avid cross-stitcher, so I think she will appreciate the yarn.
Hope you are having a great day! The weather here is just awful. It was snowing in the morning, then it started to rain quite heavy with strong winds. Not my favorite kind of day!

CAN COLD WATER CLEAN YOUR DISHES?

This is for all the germ conscious folks that worry about using cold water to clean.



John went to visit his 90 year old grandfather in a very secluded, rural area of Northern Alberta.
After spending a great evening chatting the night away, John’s grandfather prepared breakfast of bacon, eggs and toast. However, John noticed a film like substance on his plate and questioned his grandfather asking, “Are these plates clean?”
His grandfather replied, “They’re as clean as cold water can get them. Just you go ahead and finish your meal, Sonny!”
For lunch the old man made hamburgers. Again, John was concerned about the plates as his appeared to have tiny specks around the edge that looked like dried eggs and asked, “Are you sure these plates are clean?” Without looking up the old man said, “I told you before, Sonny, those dishes are as clean as cold water can get them. Now don’t you fret, I don’t want to hear another word about it!”
Later that afternoon, John was on his way to a nearby town and as he was leaving, his grandfather’s dog started to growl and wouldn’t let him pass. John yelled and said, “Grandfather, your dog won’t let me get to my car’. Without diverting his attention from the football game he was watching on TV, the old man shouted:
‘COLDWATER. GO LAY DOWN’!!!!!

HA, HA!!! So you thought I would give you a piece of advise, NOT!! Just thought I'd share a funny with you.
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!

ROCK 'N ROLL

This is a little card we made at our Mother & Me (Toddler) group in church this morning. This is the first time I have gone there. There was a very nice group of ladies, about 20 of us. And my ds Matthew did okay in the playroom without me. I was a bit nervous about that. He is quite attached to me.
I have actually never rock'n rolled before. It is a cool technique. Will definitely try it again.
