I can't wait. My first one at http://etsycottagestyle.ning.com/. Check out this lovely group of woman. Everyone loves the cottage, shabby, whimiscal style. They made me feel right at home.

Fairies are my favorites. I've been in love with them since I started drawing as a toddler. My Mom would read me Dr Suess (of course) and all my old fashioned children's tales which had the most beautiful illustrations. I must look for that book at Mom's. Hmm, I was going to buy a journal or book to make my list's as I'm way to forgetful (either being 40 or the pregnancy did it to me) :)

This will be my first swap so I've been musing over what you are supposed to do but this lovely lady, Kat, http://katsimagination.blogspot.com/, will be letting us know soon the rules. Oh you must check our her awesome art work! I love her Rain Rain Go Away collage. YUM!

Someone please tell me how to get the names as their websites? I read other blogs and the name is what you click on to get to their site. I'm way to new at this stuff!

My digital camera finally went kapoop! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...I wanted to use my birthday money for much more fun stuff. Oh well...it never fails that something useful always breaks down when I have extra spending money. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmphh..must be the law of the land around my house.

Any recommendations out there? I had a Canon Powershot A80 4.0 megapixals. It was adequate. LCD screen went out and now it won't take pics. UGH!

Snarkle it all!! Etsy guess you lose my extra monies this month.

My birthday that is! I still can't believe I'm 40. I keep thinking that at 50 I'll have a 10 yr old girl. WOW, now that's perspective for you.

Grandma is taking care of the little one today and off to a awesome Fondue restaurant tonight. I love fondue especially for special occasions. You can relax and take your time.

Oh, and I finally got Photoshop for my birthday! WHOOP! No more stinky free software to edit.

Okay, we broke down and bought a Wii. Dear hubby is now 13 again! LOL! It is a cool system. I love that there are no wires/cords, etc. Ahhhhh, we did our part to stimulate this US ecomony and now we'll just be sitting in our air conditioning playing the rest of the summer away.

The schools start in another month here in the South so it won't be long. This is our winter--too hot and humid to be outside and with the drought, all my pretties outside are fried. I hate looking at dead brown grass and I just cut down all my flowers :(
