God IS High Tech + Video

At least according to Miss Emma… here’s how that came about:
M: Mommy, do people in heaven work?
Me: No, they don’t go to work like we do, they work on other things because in heaven people don’t have bodies. It’s more like going to school than working when you’re in heaven.
M: Do they eat?
Me: No, they don’t eat. People are like Casper in heaven. Remember, when the ghosts ate? The food didn’t get digested. But you don’t get hungry. You’re just full all the time in heaven.
M: Oooh. Do people talk in heaven?
Me: Yes, but with their minds.
M: How do you talk with your minds?
Me: It’s called telepathic. In heaven people talks that way and they’ll just understand each other.
M: Mommy, can you ask God why people don’t work in heaven?
Me: Hmmm, I’m not sure how I can ask him that and get an answer.
M: Why don’t you email him? I’m sure he has a computer because we have a computer.
Me: (hmmm, she does have a point, ha!)
So, does anybody know God’s email address? {::SMILE}
Ok, I think I am going to paint our UK living room this color:
Whatcha think? I love the touch of pink but I’m not sure hubby would like it. I am talking paint now because the landlord of the house we’re looking at getting is going to let us paint. He said he likes bright colors — it’ll make the rooms brighter he thinks. I’ll share more info on the house later… once everything is settled. I can’t wait because things are driving me nuts right now. There are just a lot of little details to go through between now and the 22nd. After the 22nd I’d be able to breath better and just arrange for our airline tickets!
Oh, I want to share this little video of Jovie too. It’s super short but REALLY cute (or at least her mama thinks so):
Digi {W}Plus{9} Other Stuff…
Posted on | March 10, 2010 | 8 Comments |
FINALLY I have some time, energy, and motivation to make something! It has almost been a week since I made something!!! Have you checked out Wplus9’s store lately? Dawn’s adding some pretty digital paper, an Easter digital stamp, and a Funky Flower digikit. For this page I used a lot of what’s in her Funky Flower digikit and some other stuff by Kasia Designs at Shabby Pickle (I think this Dandelion kit retired already). If you haven’t checked Dawn’s new stuff out, you should!!
The other stuff… I told you about the movers, right? Well the next few weeks I’ll also be busy with family, some travels <– I’ll tell you about this later, AND a visit from one AWESOME blog friend! Hmmm… should I tell?!?!?! She’s flying in the 23rd and will stay for a few days in my no furniture home, ha! We will be slumber partying it he he he… Here’s another funny party… she invited herself over. I love it! Well, I think I should keep it a secret on who it is… makes it more suspenseful, no? {::SMILE}
I think that’s it. I am pooped. I need to go to bed. Jovie is finally going back to her normal schedule again. I do need to find a crib through the next few weeks unless she gets use to the play pen. She doesn’t co-sleep very well. She’d wake up every other hour compare to every four hours or longer when in a crib and she snuggles up to me too which equals to me having a sore body each morning. Laters!

Well, I’ve been wanting (actually needing — part of being a DT is that you’ve got obligations and deadlines) to do some crafts but the moving thing and Jovie’s wonky (teething) schedule have been taking over. I want to unwind though… I am feeling quite overwhelmed… and figured writing might just do it…
So here I am, pooped from dragging all sorts of empty boxes upstairs from the basement, sipping some hot cocoa (while it’s still chilly out) and thinking about all the exciting stuff that’s going to happen soon. For the longest time I’ve always wanted to live in Europe and wow, it’s going to come true in just over a month! The best part is that I’ll be sharing this experience with a great husband and the two most adorable and sweet kids. I kind of feel like I need to run around our house and yell: whoohooo!!! But I won’t… it’s dark and rainy first of all and I think our neighbors would call the police thinking something is wrong with us here.
I really have no idea what’s in store for us there but I really look forward to each and every one of them. A few weeks ago I was wondering what I’ll be doing there and today I have more of an idea in that department. I can’t share yet but hopefully soon enough I’ll have the courage to tell you what they are. As much as I’ve learned about myself and have an idea of what I can and cannot do, I am hard on myself and I do feel self conscious about me and new things.I also envision a different kind of blog. I’ll still be sharing my paper crafting creations but I want something more. Right now it’s not all that clear but hopefully it’ll be better.
Ok, I guess I’m not that talkative today. Before I go I want to share a picture… or two… my friend said according to the Chinese culture big ears are a sign of wealth. What do you think? My baby’s 9-mo-old and weighing at just a tad bit over 14lbs. She’s petite! I’ve been continuously playing with my light kit. I definitely need another one to even out the light.

Wuih! What a week! It’s been crazy busy here and I think in a little bit I will be able to relax… furniture-less but relaxing! The moving folks are coming to pick up our stuff mid-month (FINALLY!!). It’ll take about 55-60 days to get to the UK. Then early April they’re going to take everything else like extra clothes, pots and pans, crafty stuff, etc. This last part is called unaccompanied baggage and this shipment takes about 40-45 days to get to the UK. When will we leave? About April 21st. That’s more less what I am aiming for. M’s British school starts the 20th (last term) but I have a presentation on the 20th (and a breakfast the 19th). The headmaster said it’s ok for her to start a tad bit later so we’re going to try and have her go that following Monday… unless she’s got crazy jet lag.
Today I just want to share a card based on a sketch by Just Us Girls and sponsored by Wplus9. Great sketch and I loooove Wplus9’s stamps!! Oh, release #2 are coming up soon and I’ve gotten a sneaky peaky of them and they are FABULOUS!! Trust me! I cannot wait to get my hands on them and other goodies that Dawn of Wplus9 has in store!
So here’s my take on the sketch:
I used Funky Foliage for this card and some digi paper by Dysfunctional Design, Skwerm, at The DigiChick.
This is my first time playing at JUGS and it looks like they’re pretty busy there. If you haven’t come check them out and see what the DTs there create using Wplus9’s stamps!!

Good morning! It’s been a while since I’ve done a morning post! I woke up at 5:30 a.m. today. I was so tired last night that we all went to bed at 8:30p!!! That’s RARE! I made a couple projects, one for a challenge that Wplus9 will be sponsoring, and the above (using Funky Flowers by wplus9). I’ve been needing the relax me time!
Been MIA lately because of a lot of stuff: work, personal, and moving across the pond. I’ll give you details when it comes time but right now, I just want to say hello and share a project.
Okie dokie, got to go to work. Laters!
keep looking »
