Boring..........

    DsDesignsBluenoseCountry.gif


Nothing exciting happening here.  Work has been same 'ole, same 'ole.  I do get out early tomorrow to have a bit of a long weekend.  I will probably stop at the store quick for a spiral ham for Sunday's dinner.  We will be going to my parents for brunch with the rest of the family.  Steve probably won't make it as he is working 7pm to 7am, but if he can't get up to go, I will make a nice plate and drop it off for him to eat later in the day. 

 

Been playing a bit with graphics, but for some reason I just haven't had it in me to do much of anything new.  I tried a few things and scrapped them before I was finished.  Just did nothing for me.  Maybe I got a bit burnt out because I rushed through so many in the past several days.  I won't stop but maybe just slow down.  Fair warning to you all :)~    I did have to do this one.  I have a love for boats and not sure why, but when I saw this I just fell in love with the idea.  I played around with the frame effect and thought this came out pretty cool.  Almost like an icy, foggy porthole... or maybe not maybe it's just my foggy mind!

 

Probably a good time for the 'burn out factor' to hit.  Post season starts next week and I will be so engrossed in that.  My boys are number 1 in my book, but I will watch as many games as possible, I love the sport and this is what we look forward to all season.  At the most I think teams have 4 games left.  Next Friday the playoffs will begin.  Be ready, as I will post the series match ups and will be asking for you to make picks.  It will be best of 7 so it will last a bit longer than football.  Tune up on your hockey skills, I expect you all to play!!  ROFL With that said, where are all those Philly fans???  I put the Flyer cap on tonight and they decide to turtle and not even show up!!  Geeze guys, you have 20 minutes, do you think you can take it to the Devils and keep them 2 points behind you?  Hmmm??  Couldja??? Wouldja??? 

 

As you may have noticed, I did play a bit with my journal set up.  Both this one and my tag one.  I am thrilled that AOL decided to give us more character space in the 'about me' section.  It was wonderful adding and clicking save and having it actually save instead of, 'you used to many characters!'  LOL  I won't change the color scheme on this one, but I may mess around with the side bar a bit more I haven't decided.  While redoing that section I noticed the SiteMeter count.  I have gone to the site to see where my visitors have come from, but rarely pay attention to the number of 'hits.'  I kind of forgot about that.  Anyway, to my surprise I am over 7000 visitors!  I had to look at it twice!  I never expected that when I started out, but would like to thank you all for stopping by and visiting with me.

Last of my alerts for tonight, sorry to keep you all 'jumping.'  I had a few that were done so I figured I would add them tonight.  I thought about spreading them out since I will be working on a few other things and not sure I will have shares for a couple days.  I also have to get a tag up on my journal.  Enjoy :)

April Showers.........

If you snag the blinkie, it needs to be used on a white background or the rain will look like hell!  LOL

Tired...

                  DsDesignsTuscanGarden.gif


Not sleepy tired mind you, just tired.  Tired of my entries being woe is me, my head hurts, my heart hurts, I'm crabby.  Tired of the drama and game playing people think they need to do.  Tired of the immaturity displayed by what you would consider adults.

Tired of the lies, conniving, scheming, back stabbing.  I'm tired! 

 

I'm tired of the grief that has effected so many of my friends and I can't do anything about it.  I can't make the pain and suffering go away.  I can't replace the tears with joy and smiles.  I'm tired!

 

What I'm not tired of is are the graphics and sharing.  The weather change that we experienced today.  I am sitting here in shorts!  Yes, shorts!  Ok, so it was only 74 when I got home from work but I couldn't wait to get out of my work clothes and jeans were not on my mind, and sweats are for cold weather, so shorts it is!  Some of my hair is pulled up.  Pay no attention to the girl on the sidebar... LOL her hair is much shorter than mine is at the moment.  I haven't decided if I will let it grow out or not, and since it is naturally curly the longer it gets the wilder it gets.  No control, it has a mind of it's own and today I had enough, so up it went.  One of the reasons I cut it off to begin with.  It was always up.  Time will tell how long this lasts. 

 

Since I made a promise to myself the only complaint I'd make today is the part about being tired I will stop now and do a few entries of just graphics.  Me thinks you like that best anyway :)~

 

PS  Have you all heard they will be doing an update on journals tomorrow and one of the things being addressed is the number of characters allow in the 'about me' section.  Whuuu huuuu doing a happy dance here!  LOL  Blogsinsider

Day is done....

  DsDesignsLakeErieSunset.gif


One more shot of the sunset before I go off to bed.  I hate Monday's and after the Friday I had I am not looking forward to work at all.  I will keep the chin up and smile my smile, but it won't be easy!!  My headache is gone, but I will bet a gazillion dollars it will be back at 8:30 am, sharp!

 

Day was lazy but it flew by.  Why do weekdays drag and weekends scoot by like it is only a couple hours long?  Hardly seems fair.  Hope everyone had a good weekend with smiles and laughs. 

 

G'night all :)
