hello everyone

well, i finally have time to sit down and write. heres the run down of the days that seem to go bye so fast that they smear into each other, for fear once you blink the many hours have passed. and so it goes right? well as you all know a friend and myself went to a crop in lincoln city, i complained about the service there and the bed but what i didnt have time to really talk about was the crop itself. first let me say that the ladie whom not only ran the crop but also is the owner of stacys scrap shack did a WONDERFUL job. dispite the fact that she was very busy. it came off as a great crop. the make n take was very cute and usefull. the surroundings were calm. the ladies whom also attended were very nice and helpful if asked. you did not even have to leave your cropping to purchase something you needed as they would take the need and pick it up for you. now myself being a fellow crop hostess i must say it was worth the trip. THANK YOU STACY.  well i came home to not only the regular duties but a phone call from a friend that id went to school with, wow to think back all those years hahaha, anyways, she starts radiation treatments for bone cancer. horrible that nasty c word. cant there finally be a cure? so i went down and spent the weekend with her. with prayers and hope overseen with love these treatments will work. so tonight is bunco, so much fun the group of ladies are a blast. i have a yudu machine from cricut its a home screen printing machine ive made each ladie a shirt thats an peace sign which says peace love bunco with a flower very cute. anyways id better get off here and get 3 more done for tonight than the whole group has one. so this was a long rundown of the past week or two. till next time.wear a smile, love one another and send your prayers above for those in need. take care.

back from the crop

hello, hello everyone. well my friend and i went to the crop in lincoln city this past weekend and we had fun this was my friends first ever crop so she was unsure what to think. i meet some very nice ladies. and was able to speak with them about the condo crops i do and the scraphunger so with all the blessings i will see new faces at both. in my next blog i will tell everyone about my condo crops. oh they are lots of fun. i was lucky enough to get some cards done that was my goal. the time went to fast though. everyone runs their crops diffrent so my friend was unsure what to think. the main bummer about the time was the rudeness from the checkin and check out people. we will not be staying there again even if its conveinant its not worth the headache. and the beds are horribly hard. live and learn right? well all in all we had a great visit and got some things done. and the day was nice all day saterday thats a huge plus. well time for bed so gonna go goodnight everyone till the next time.....have a wonderful night...

                                                                    CHANGES
Changes in my life,from the grey in my hair to the wrinkle above my brow. today i was thinking theres so many changes now. from the streets where once laid gravel to the fields where the wild would roam, heavy is my heart to know that away is taken their home. I saw a child playing within a guarded fence, a mother watching closely her expressions very tense. all due to many changes not as safe as it use to be. this is all within my heart so truly sad to me. Out in front of a building stands a man whoms dripping wet, he reaches down into the trash to see what he can get, cause changes came he lost his job, his home his children his love. He now lays his head on a cardboard box and sends his prayers above. you now must look to your neighbor with heart and soul be true, reach out your hand and tell them through all these changes , i'll be here for you...
