too much stuff

so I spent most of Saturday putting together a cabinet for all of my craft supplies and sorting through it all (this also took up part of Sunday).

how did I end up with so much stuff? good grief.

i guess i need to get crafting!
It's mostly for paper crafting. Its too bad I never got into
scrapbooking....because well, I've got the stuff for it.

I'd post a picture if I were more motivated

I think I need to make a goal of getting out and doing something every weekend
beach, park, free event...just to somewhat socialize myself.

I did see Up. It was an emotional journey that I was so not expecting....not from a cartoon.
The beginning was much more traumatic than Nemo (and honestly, the beginning of Nemo
was a little traumatic). It will so be going into my collection.

Threes

So they say things happen in three's.
That might just be so this week:
Ed McMahon
Farrah Fawcett
Michael Jackson

I can't say that any one of them was near and dear to me
but i did love watching star search and what child of the
80's wasn't influenced somehow by an MJ song. Farrah,
well her battle has been fierce and brave.

I pray that all of their families find some kind of peace

I miss you

I miss just sitting watching movies with you

I miss wondering around the grocery store with you
even though you hated it

I
just
miss
you

Too Much Stuff

So I'm helping my friend move.
She's got a lot of stuff (two kids means lots and lots of stuff)
but it makes me think about all of the "stuff" I have.

I have a whole lot of crap

More than I need.

I got rid of stuff when I moved,
but probably not enough.

I've only been home for a year
and I've already accumulated more.

How do people live with a minimal amount of items?
I guess I like having
things too much.

It's hard right now because all I have is a room
and I have enough to fill an apartment at least.

which leads me to....
I need to move out!
i crave my own place.

car

I put $47 worth of gas in my car in two days. Lompoc, home, lompoc, home, goleta, home. Ewww.

That is not an awesome amount of money to spend on gas.

as lady M would say: epic failure

Gran Torino was an amazing movie.
well worth the time spent watching it.
Serious, Funny, oddly heartwarming

I enjoyed it very much so....and that car was just beautiful!

where do weekends go? where do weeks go?
where do months go? I can't believe it's almost the end of June.
But yay for the first day of summer!

so you think you can

dance! I didn't watch the show until I moved back home.
I suppose that if I'm going to watch reality tv (other than deadliest catch of course)
this is one I can get into.

It's almost Friday.....Yay!

Record bowl making will be happening Saturday night, very exciting.

I need to go somewhere, not far away, just a weekend getaway.
That would be supurb.

Supurb....makes me want to watch Empire Records

me

I could never be one of those girls......

who has everything pulled together

that rocks the red lipstick

who has envy worthy outfits

who manages to find love quickly

that scores awesome deals at the thrift store

In my head I imagine a much more saavy

thrifty amazing me but I don't know how to get there

pics

The lovely girls......I can't believe M is a high school graduate! I'm so proud of her. And well G, she's just amazing. 2 more yrs of high school for her. I do believe I'm going to miss them.

This is what was accross from the Avila Barn.
I wonder what happened to it.

It's things like this that I want to take more pictures of.....random yet interesting. That's what I strive to capture.

If i could take more pictures of birds/animals...I would do that too. This guy lives at the avila barn. He posed for me. Must be used to silly people taking his picture

June, already!

I can't believe it's already June!
And pretty much the middle.
Where is my life going?!

I didn't go to the rodeo.
Already not fulfilling my list.
Gar.

Graduation day tomorrow
Three of them.....it's going to be a crazy long day.
But exciting. Can't believe that the girls are graduating
from High School.

June already......one more month and I inch closer to 30
eek!
