From God's Love
Ah well I'm swamped. Working all day Monday through Wednesday this week because the kiddos are out of school for Christmas break. Also am missing a couple crucial Christmas gifts and have neglected cleaning my house quite long enough. *sigh. I'll get it together on Christmas Eve, no doubt. Last minute :)

Only an Aunt
So maybe I should talk a bit more in these posts, instead of just throwing freebies at y'all :)
Well my birthday was nice, but I got in a car accident (frowny face). I was in my employer's vehicle as well (SUPER frowny face). Thank goodness the kids I watch weren't in the car with me, and it was really just a bad fender bender, no one was hurt at all. The young lady I hit was -vocal- to say the least. Needs a lesson on how to handle stress; cussing and threatening violence really lead nowhere.. Anyway. I'm just glad no one was hurt and my boss wasn't too angry with me, very supportive actually and I am so grateful for that.
December is just so busy, I am having no time to hang out on my computer banging out wordart! I designed Christmas cards for both my sisters, but have YET to get to ours (ouch). I still have a bit of Christmas shopping to do and will be working more hours through the holidays since school is out and the kids I watch will be home all day. Plus my birthday happened (28 is still not quite sinking in) and my NINTH wedding anniversary is tomorrow (happy dance!). Whew! So these freebies I am doling out this month are actually gifts I've made for people. Each one will be printed, framed, and given for Christmas to a family member (mostly on my hubbie's side). With so much going on out here in the real world, I wanted to share with y'all a bit without having to eat up time I need to spend Christmassing!
Today's freebie will be a gift for my aunt, Lisa. She lived with my grandparents my whole life and I was very close to them and visited often, so she was always a part of that experience. When I was a kid, she was the one to treat me to Cadbury Creme Eggs, take me to movies in the theater(!), and let me choose the programs on her TV. Now that I'm an aunt, I understand a bit more how precious those nieces and nephews really are. I'm pretty fond of the 17 (going on 18!) that Joe and I share. Especially my four :)

Cherish, Hope, Dream
It's my birthday! Yay!
Having a good one so far, just straightening the house, catching up on Dexter (i♥Dexter), stuffing myself with fast food (Chick-fil-A chicken biscuit for breakfast, headed to Subway for lunch), and tonight dinner with the hubbie. I have to work a bit this afternoon, but my job is such a breeze and so enjoyable, that doesn't phase me a bit! :)

Having a Place to Go is Home
Ah, a late evening post :)
It snowed last night! It was so gorgeous, Joe and I were out at 1am watching the flakes. They were huge and falling so slowly, it was exquisite. All melted away by noon today, but too beautiful in the middle of the night.
Ok, Randi: You and I have too much in common! My birthday is the 9th actually, but I am just blown away by all the similarities! Email me sometime (chrishel00@gmail.com), I would love to find out what other coincidences are waiting to be discovered! :)

Dear God, We Gratefully Bow Our Heads
Hope everyone had a great holiday yesterday. Mine was nice, my whole family showed up and it was peaceful and pleasant. Lots of yummy turkey and watching all my nieces and nephews be generally cute :)
One thing that really struck me yesterday, that I wasn't expecting, was how I missed my Grandpa saying grace. It was always very simple, said with head bowed and hands folded. Something to the effect of: "Dear Lord, please bless this food to the nourishment of our bodies, direct and guide us, in Jesus name, Amen." How I miss his voice blessing our meals. I wish with I had a recording of his grace. It is a precious piece of my life, lost.
One more note about grace.. Growing up my immediate family did not pray, but grace was said faithfully at my grandparents' house. And all the adults thought it was so sweet to hear my sisters and I chorus, "God is great, God is good, let us thank Him for this food. Amen." And this went on for years.. Then one year I decided us children should coordinate a new prayer -for Thanksgiving!- and recite it instead, to surprise the grown ups. We were around the ages of 10(me), 6, and 4 years old, three sisters. I coached them for weeks in secret - although I know my parents knew what was going on. The end result wasn't the greatest, but that silly prayer remains firmly stuck in my head. I got it out of a prayer book for children, I wish I had that book... Anyway, today's freebie IS that prayer, how cute is that?

Remembering Those We Lost This Year
So today is the day. Let me be completely honest and up-front here, I have never been much of a Thanksgiving fan. I love the food and all, it's just never been a holdiay I get very excited about. And this year is especially rough after the loss of my Grandpa this summer. Am hoping today goes well.
So here is a little freebie for y'all, I hope your Thanksgivings are blessed with the family members you are lucky enough to still have around and the sweet memories of years past with those you've lost.
I'll be back tomorrow with another full post - for sure! Y'all have a nice holiday.

A Blessed Family, A Thankful Heart
Ah well it's been awhile, huh? But I always manage to show back up eventually :)
Things are doing well here. I'm in the middle of a cold; headaches, stuffy noses, coughs. It's unpleasant. I'm surviving, though.
We're having my family's Thanksgiving at my house this year. This is the first year we will ever have it away from my grandparents' house, but it is also the first Thanksgiving without my Grandpa, so we thought this might be easier on us all. I hope it all goes well. My hubbie is deep-frying a turkey, yumm. I really need to get busy cleaning house, though! This holiday has snuck right up on me!

Old Halloween Picture
Ok, last Halloween post, I promise.
I mentioned my years as a witch (warts, blacked out teeth, pointy hats, etc). It was always my favorite costume. And if you were reading my comments on that post, you might've noticed my sister piping up, naming her favorite costume as the Indian (Native American) one.
So I rustled up this picture. It's the Kirk girls, Halloween in the early 90's (pre-brother). Randi (me) the witch, Kelley the Indian, and our little sister Jesi, the pumpkin:

I vow to now move on to Thanksgiving, thanks for bearing with me :)

No God, no peace
First of all, let me post the winner of my Halloween costume comment contest.
I went to Random.org to determine the winner:
Pamela! Congrats! :)
Linda & Michelle: Since I am so grateful to you guys for your support, I'd love to send you one of them for free, just for playing along.
Just leave a comment here or shoot me an email (chrishel00@gmail.com) letting me know the email address you'd like your winnings sent to (and which Halloween bunch one you'd like to have, if you won a single one).
Oh, and just so you know, Kelley wasn't included in the draw because she is my little sister. Not a digi-scrapper, just a fan of me :) :)
In other news.. I hope everyone had a fun, happy Halloween! I enjoyed giving out candy and seeing my favorite trick-or-treaters. And then on Sunday the Cowboys won! Whoop!
Also: is the time change throwing anyone else a little off? This morning I woke up in a slight panic, thinking Joe was late for work. The sunlight was streaming through the window and I was so sure I'd slapped the alarm clock off and overslept! But no, just DST messing with me :)

Halloween Boy/Girl
It's getting later in the day and I'm looking forward to the doorbell starting to ring :)
A couple freebies for today:
-*-
And another try at a CONTEST!
Leave a comment on this post with your most memorable Halloween costume and win BOTH of my new Halloween bunches for free! I'll randomly choose a winner on Monday evening, around 9pm CST, so hurry and make a quick comment to win!
As for mine.. I loved my Custard costume (Strawberry Shortcake's kitten) and the Taffy the clown one was classic. But a witch was always my go-to costume and I think I have to go with that as my favorite. It encompasses so many Halloweens; holidays of warty noses and pointy black hats. What costume sticks in your memory?

It's Halloween! It's Halloween!
Another Halloween post! I'm excited about tomorrow night. My nephews are Spider-Man and Wubbzy and my nieces are a princess and a flower. I'm also looking forward to a visit from a troupe of little vampires! :) I don't dress up myself, just put on a jack-o-lantern top and answer the doorbell, but I have a good time!
Hope you all have a wonderful holiday, be safe - and brave! :)

Creepy and Kooky
Ahh I'm back! Did I scare you?
Again, I have no excuses for my extended absence beyond plain old laziness. I DID name this site Lazy Daisy, right? Because I sure am living up to it!
Things are fine out in the real world. My job keeps me busy as do household chores and all my TV shows :) I am loving the fact that the cool weather is staring to blow in, I love winter. Curling up next to our woodstove is the best.
And Halloween! While not my favorite holiday, it is a fun one. I am looking forward to handing out candy to all the goblins, ghouls, princesses and superheroes. I'm sad I never got around to trying my hand at a Halloween scrap kit this year, but I swear time just rushes right by me. I am definitely going to shoot for a Christmas kit, I absolutely adore Christmas :)

MIA
So I've been MIA again, I know. I have excuses! Recently I lost another great man from my life, my old band director, Louis Thornton. He was the sweetest man and such an inspiration to so many of his students. He retired my sophomore year of high school and I remember just bawling about it. He called us girls "Sunshine" and it brightened our days. He will be so missed. His funeral was tough to handle, though it was nice to see so many old faces.
THEN my hubbie somehow messed with my Photoshop and now it won't load. He has promised to fix it this evening and I will show back up with a post ASAP after that. Thanks for hanging in there with me, I appreciate it more than y'all know.

sf Randi
Oh I am so excited :)
I have a font!
Ellie Lash is teaming up with her friend Ivy to make a new free font site (SugarFrogFonts.com) and she was looking for volunteers to submit their handwriting to build up their stock of fonts. I have been wanting a font of my own for ages, but never have done anything about it, so when her post popped up in my Google Reader, I was excited!
I sent my completed base template in yesterday and received my font this evening! What quick turnaround! Now I'm wishing I had girlier, prettier handwriting :)
Here it is:
Now my husband is wanting to do one of his own, as well as my cousin's 7 year old daughter. I need to print out a couple more templates! :)
Check out their site if you haven't already. They are just getting started, but you can already tell it is going to be full of fun fonts and other sweet goodies:
SugarFrogFonts.com
I'll be back this week sometime with my regular wordart posts. I am spending this evening knocking out a few bunches while hubbie is out with the boys.

Best Friends Forever
So hello again all!
I am (slowly) working on a loose schedule to get myself on track. Hard to believe I was once a daily poster! I want to try my hand at another digi-scrap kit if I can find the time, I really want to do a Halloween one, but not till I'm more caught up on my wordart making.. I need to get busy!
Am planning on spending tomorrow evening banging out wordart so I can have a few posts worth ready. Joe is going out with the boys after the football game and so I will have a few hours of uninterrupted quiet night time. Prime for zoning out in Photoshop :)

Where the Wild Things Are
Well, I'm still not on any sort of a schedule at all. Obviously, haha. I apologize for my sporadic posting and guarantee I will be getting my act together someday.
For today, though, here I am with a night post. My husband has a friend over and they are taking electronics apart on my dining table, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to make a quick post!

For today, though, here I am with a night post. My husband has a friend over and they are taking electronics apart on my dining table, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to make a quick post!

Always Kiss Your Children Goodnight
Oh my goodness, yesterday was awful. My hubbie called a little before noon, he had forgotten a couple things he'd wanted to take to work and was asking if I could run them up to him. I said, ok! and thank God I did! When I went to my garage, there was water everywhere, and I mean everywhere. The cement was dark with it and a small river was running on the far side, the length of my garage and out the door. When I raised the garage door, I found a soaking wet driveway (neighbors' driveways = dry)! Turns out the water was leaking (POURING) out of the water heater. BAH!
So I called Joe and he hurried home. Turned off the water supply at the curb and did a little investigating. Turns out it's shot, no more water heater. And worst of all, the "shut-off valve" for the heater is busted as well, so we couldn't't turn our main water supply back on without starting another wave of water. Thank the good Lord I was caught up on things like laundry and dishes. What a mess.
Today, though, we seem to have it worked out, thankfully. I am sooo glad it's the weekend, I am looking forward to a couple days of sleeping late and catching up on my reading and wordart making :)

Alphabet Soup Designs
Hey all!
So tomorrow I will return, with a child-centered bunch and freebie for you. But today I am here to let you all in on a great gift idea for anyone you know who is expecting:
Alphabet Soup Designs is my old friend Kimberly's blog. We've been friends since 6th grade, which is pretty unbelieveable to me! She has gotten started making the cutest wooden painted letters to coordinate with baby bedding. She is super talented and the letters are great quality. Check her out if you know anyone expecting a baby, it's a great customized gift to give.

I Can Do All Things
Wow, it's been too long. I have no excuse for my absence, really. First it was adjusting to my new job (I'm an after school mother's helper for a few hours each school day), then it was the flu that laid us low for a whole week, and then this weekend was busy, busy. So this week so far has been a time of pointless relaxation and getting absolutely nothing done. Bah! I need a schedule, but I keep putting off making one..
But I'm back again, I know I tend to wander off and I sooo appreciate you guys who hang in there with me. And much thanks to those who commented or emailed to check on me. I'm fine, I am just a scatterbrained person and maybe a little easily distracted by shiny things, haha. Here is the Bible set I have been promising for so long, and I will have another post on Friday with a freebie goodie and a bunch for sale.

A Love Sent From Heaven
Yay Friday! We're going tonight to see District 9 again. Has anyone else caught that movie? It was so intense and so good! I have been dragged reluctantly to many action movies this summer (Wolverine, Transformers, GI Joe), but District 9 was the only one I really enjoyed. I was on the edge of my seat the whole movie! This time we'll stay for the drive-in's double feature and catch The Taking of Pelham 123 afterwards.
Tomorrow morning I am going to take a family portrait for a sweet family I may wind up baby-sitting for. Am more than a little nervous, I've taken solo shots before and a few group ones of my own family, but never anything like this. I'm trying to keep my head up and be confident :)

Proud to Be an American
Well hi all! Did you think I'd fallen off the planet?
Not much is actually new around here. Am going to see Julie & Julia today with an old friend who's moving back out of town. She will be missed, my movie buddie.
I may have a job watching children in the afternoons. Nothing too strenuous, just two sweet boys for a few hours after school each day. It's not definite yet, I will have more on that when I know more. I have been slacking in the blogging/scrapping department - ok I have been slacking in many departments - so I am hoping next week to begin working, sign up for some online classes, and get myself on a kind of rough schedule to be sure I get things done every day and not just loaf. Loaf, what a funny word :)
