Not Everyone's Mama

Looking around …. anyone? tapping microphone … is this thing on? Oh, must be me. It has been crazy around here. My shoulder is making me lazy. Results of the MRI came back – non-healing (or non union – not sure which I heard) fracture to my clavicle, bursitis, something is up with the tendons, and damage to the AC joint?  I don’t remember exactly what happened to the AC joint. Verdict – shoulder rehabilitation therapy. That sounds painful. I also have an appointment with an... (more...)

If you were the writer for the next episode of the next season, what would happen? What does the future look like in Smallville? I know Smallville ended, but what if it hadn’t? How would you write the future? First, I would want to see Clark and Lois say I do.  Don’t you? After that, I think it would be fun to see the next generation of Superman.  Bring us the birth of Clark and Lois’ first child.  Flash us forward to the future.  Bring us to his struggles.  Maybe... (more...)

So, what did you think of the finale of Smallville? How many shows have lasted 10 years on TV?  Not many when you look at how many shows have been on TV.  Smallville was one of those exceptions.  One where the viewers completely fell in love and none of us wanted it to end. I think the last show tied it all up nicely but I still miss it. We got to see Clark learning to fly, which was a moment we all had been waiting for.  Shivers.  I got them.  How about you? ... (more...)

I love love love things that make my house smell good!  It’s a slight addiction of mine.  With pets and kids in my house though (and myself) I look for safer alternatives to the traditional paraffin candles.  Soy burns longer, burns cleaner, and makes me feel better about it.  I still don’t burn it in the kitchen around my birds because I haven’t come up with conclusive evidence that it is safe for birds’ respiratory systems (it doesn’t take much of the wrong thing... (more...)

Perfect gift idea – for anyone!  Nothing says I love you at Christmas time like Hickory Farms.  At least for me.  Send me the fudge, mom, if you’re searching for my perfect presents! Oh Hickory Farms. How I love thee. Let me count the ways. Sausage. Chedder. Nuts. Fruit. Fudge. Cookies. So much more. Seriously, what tells you it is Christmas time faster than seeing the Hickory Farms store at your local mall? When my grandpa was alive,  I always got him a Hickory Farms... (more...)

Perfect gift idea – for anyone!  Who wouldn’t love something you designed as a present?  Get it ordered by 12/2 to ensure Christmas delivery! Use coupon code FREESHIP15 for orders over $15. Yesterday I wanted to make some presents for my dad’s birthday and Pato’s Christmas present.  I can’t post what I made them because, well, they are connected to me on Facebook and they could come across this blog post and then the surprise is blown. I decided I needed to make something... (more...)

I’m ashamed to say, it has been that long since I have designed ANYTHING.  With that being said, I am retiring almost my whole store after Christmas.  HUGE sale right now.  75% off of EVERYTHING, personal, commercial, everything.  After the sale is over the only thing I am keeping will be my doodles and my PSP scripts.  I love creating those and I am going to concentrate on those again.  I think that will keep designing fun for me. Check out the sale! I know, I know,... (more...)
