Good Afternoon Everyone.

Thanks PK for starting a new thread.

Netta prayers for your family.

DakotaBear I hope your kitty Paws is okay. Give us a update when you can.

Have a good weekend all.

JCI Sistas! Thank you for the new thread P-Kay Sunshine!

Have a good Friday!

Dot-love that banner...might have to lift that

I bid you great tidings on this Friday night!

I am sending this post from the back room of the church. We are having intercessory prayer tonight from 9:30-1:00am. Yes, I hear you asking how can I be typing this message when we're supposed to be in prayer? Well, the praise team's rehearsal is running late! So, needless to say, we're now off-schedule.

I'm too far behind to catch up right now, but I'm sure the projects posted were off da chizain b/c ya'll roll like that!! I'll go back after getting some rest, and go from there.

The crop last w/e was great!! I actually finished 1 full year in my 2-year cruise album! Ask Cassie, that's a major deal for me!! I also set up a few cards, in an effort to have a supply on hand.

Ok, gotta go now. Hope to get back out here some time tomorrow.

Bidding you all sweet dreams!!!

CraftyNetta, ten years ago my family lost a very well loved family member to a shooting death. I am not sure my Aunt ever fully recovered. I know that as a parent, none of us believe that we will out live our children. This is not the order of things in our natural thinking. I will say that you need to keep your family member lifted up as much as possible and cover her with much prayer. I too will do the same. When this happen to us, I had just recently started living my life truly for the Lord. Eventhough my family was very angry at the shooter, I could not be. I was hurt that he killed my cousin and wanted him to see justice but at the same time, he too had a mother,kids, and family that he had hurt deeply.

Please try to tell her not to allow the anger at this senseless act to harden her heart. It is a never ending cycle. We had to continually go to court even after he was sentenced. When he came up for probation, when he would be moved things like that. It was as if we continually repeated the cycle again and again. This is why I encourage you to cover her in prayer. She needs to mourn her child, then move to celebrating his life. Grief is and can be a horrible thing to deal with. If you need an ear, we are here. Father, please comfort this mom. Lift and guide her as she not only has to bury her child but also prepare for a legal situation that will/can be very painful. I pray that you allow Crafty to be an instrument to be used by you. Your word says that you are the perfect peace, a peace that passes all understanding. Please comfort this family in their time of need.

If you need an ear, I will gladly call you. Please cover her with prayer, I can't stress this enough.

I am going to try and clean up this scrap room. It is a mess since my return from the Stampede. I will check in later for all of you late nighters

Tonya, thank you!!!! I felt your words, feelings and pain of your cousin to mine as tears started to flow again. I will definitely cover her and his siblings with prayer.
I am praying for all the sistas and brothas on this board as well, everyone is so supportive and compassionate, I am grateful to be amongst you all.

Thank you, my sista!!

Good afternoon, It is sunny and cold here, reminds me of Feb. weather. Island was talking about doing taxes, which reminded that I haven't started mine. I always wait until the end, because I know I am going to have to take money out of the bank and pay.

Tsrel--Did you good ladies take any pictures at the Stampede? The posting I have seen on blogs and other sites you are not to be found.

BBL

Dakota we did but I haven't. Did any posting of pics yet. Will get to it soon though

Good Evening, doing a driveby check-in....

Its after 9:00PM and I should be getting ready for bed but I'm not. I've had a sorta busy day today which means I didn't get anything done. I did manage to wash two loads of laundry, take my car to the car wash and meet up with Sharon and chat for a few. I hope that I can get something scrap related done before I go to bed but that may not happen.

In case you hadn't heard and didn't get a chance to visit my blog yesterday I'm still celebrating the March Madness basketball tournament. VCU is still in, they made it to the elite 8 and will play #1 seed Kansas tomorrow. They pulled off a one point overtime victory last night against Floriday. I hope we can pull off another cinderella victory. Its funny how the whole time I was in college I never really went to the basketball games and now the fact that they have made history by making it this far has me beaming with excitment!

Okay gotta get off here, will chat with you all tomorrow. Wishing everyone a happy scrappin' night!

Prayers to everyone, especially Netta.

I hope today begins a beautiful week for everyone.

Here's my latest card:

Hey Everyone.

Hope this post finds everyone in good health and spirits. It is a lazy Sunday around these parts, and I have to say I needed it.

Dakota I hope your kitty is ok. That must have been pretty awful to see.

I am typing this message on my iPad, loving it. Trying to figure out how to view my digital subscriptions on my iPad. Still trying to figure that out.

Anyway, a few weeks ago I posted that I was burned out from stamping and taking a break. Well, just so happens that I had my yearly physical and turns out I'm not just burned out, I'm anemic. It is so bad that my doctor wants me to get IV iron infusions. I start the treatments on Tuesday. I am also reading and studying for my PMP certification and I am hoping that iron goes to my brain and wakes it up. Lol!

Well, even though this has been a lazy day, I still need a nap. Enjoy what's left of your weekend.

Dakota so glad your kitty is doing good.

Ziggy I hope the treatments work fast for you.

Trell love the cards.

Good Morning All,

Monday is here once again, so let’s make the most of it.

Netta – Thanks on my mini scrapper. She wants me to give her sketches all the time now. She’s been asking for one for the last week and a half.

Dakotabear – Glad to hear Paws is ok. LOVE the banner!

IslandV – Thanks for the update on Char. How are you going to tempt us with how much you spent then not tell us. Of course, I want to know now. I remember after realizing how much I spent in 2009, I knew I had to make a change.

Coffee – Happy Spring Break!!! Keep on walking…

Lisa – Not posting from the back of the church. I cracked up.

Renee – Happy Belated Anniversary. Too cool on dh getting you an ipad.

Treva – Go RAMS!!! I have a friend who went to VCU. This is certainly a sweet Cinderella story.

Trell – Nice card. I wish I knew what to do with flowers. LOL!!!

Ziggy – Glad you checked in. I pray your treatments go well. 2 Managers on my job are doing the PMP too. Good thing our workload has been light, as one of them has been using that time to study.

I have a Liturgical Dance Commissioning Service tonight. Send me some prayers. I think I strained some unused muscles in my back Satureday, during our last session, and I've been in pain ever since. It has subsided just a little as of this morning but I really want to be able to minister tonight with all that God has placed in me!

Have a GREAT day ALL!!!!!
