DSL down for almost a week

Wouldn't you know, just when I decide to be a faithful blogger, my daughters DSL goes out for almost a week. Finally working again tonight. I'll see what I can find to post for
tomorrow. I did get some scrapping done, since I could not surf. Melissa had a blood drive at the mall today, so the girls and I went along and did some shopping. I am really
enjoying my new clothes. Sending the bills to DH in KY. :)
Good night , I mean morning its 2:13 am and I need to sleep. ;)

Woo.........hooo.......my blog is now pretty

Woo..........hoo.............my blog is now pretty and to celebrate, I have a little freebie
to share with those of you who come and take a peak. Some of you may already have
this one, as it was a challenge prize last year. If you download , please say hi and
tell me what you think of my new blog look. Hey, it's not fancy smancy(my blog),
but I think I did pretty good of an old grandma.

I was inspired to make this rustic kit by my 1860 log house.
You can down load Country Tulip here. Hope you like it.
I'll try to make you something new real soon.
Good night. :)

I had a layout disappear again. I think I must have hit backspace trying to insert my
text. Old women and blogs don't mix. :)
Good night for now. It's 9 pm and I still need to do my blog header and some sponsor
and CT layouts. It never ends, but I love it.

Working On My Blog

I have spent some time on my blog today. I added to the right side bar and expanded the sides so there is not so much wasted space. Also working on a new header to fill
up the big space and the top. :)
I am getting ready to start putting up a few freebies and making it more user friendly.
Now if I could just get better at blogging every day, I'd be all set.

Hi Mike, (my brother) if you are reading this. I love you and miss you bunches.

I have some more layouts to post and then I'll get back to kit making and my header.
Does anyone know how to make my blinkies blink on the new blogger format?
I have tried all the Photobucket links and none work. It always
says its an invalid
link. They worked on the old Blogger, so not sure what to do here. The Html is
different on the new one.


OK, on to some layouts:
First is a Scrapdish CT layout

Hey, where did my other layouts disappear to?
I'll close this post and start another to upload my other layouts.
Hope someone reads this and leaves me a hello. I bet if I posted a freebie and
sent you over here I would get some hits. :)
