Inspiration: All About The Blog Sharing Today!!!

I feel like I need to be inspired lately and I have read and seen some great posts lately that I would like to share that have inspired me.

I have some new craft inspiration to add to my list of things I want to do....





My friend over at Pink Tulle with Feathers and Sequins, Shannan Massey (who've I've known since high school, gulp, 13 years ago) makes beautiful creations with cards, card stock, scrapbook paper and labels. I think this one is really beautiful. It would look great in my house or as a gift to a friend!!

My sister at All The Petty Stuff is doing some great posts on the book "The Place of Yes" by Bethenny Frankel. I read the one today and it spoke to me. (Her and her hubby - aren't they cuties!!!)


Over at Tatortots and Jello, she is talking about Father's Day gifts, which is right around the corner, yikes!!! I thought this was a great idea for my husband......


Over at Thrify Decor Chick, she is talking about how to go from good to great photos. I totally want to experiment now!!! Some of these pictures she took in her own garden are frame-worthy.

editing photos



I hope you find something inspiring today!!!

I need more hours in the day! I love finding all kinds of fun projects :) And I agree-that golf present for daddy's looks like FUN!

I totally panicked when I got your comment earlier about 10 days away from due date-I think it's supposed to say 40, but the 4 just looks really weird...although I would be ok if he decided to come tonight! He's healthy and I'm big and hot and tired... :)

That "Thing" in That Basket Isn't a Baby, You Know That, Right?

I have had the most horrible case of writer's block lately! With that said, I saw this article on Babycenter and I just had to write something about it.   So, we've heard of the trend of eating the placenta after birth . We've heard of the trend of putting them in pill form to get the nutrients . But this? This to me, is just the craziest of them all.   As a group of beings on this planet, I've never seen any other mammal who evolves to get to a certain place, then de-evolves on purpose, to be more "natural." I am sure I am seriously about to put my foot in my mouth, I am sure there are (some) people out there that I might offend with my "closed-mindedness" on this topic. But this is just, well, ridiculous to me.   Basically, after the placenta comes out, instead of cutting the cord and detaching it from the baby, you leave the placenta on, they salt it to help with the decomp process, add rosemary (I am guessing for the smell?), then p...

What is Your Skin Care Regimen?

Since turning 34 this year, I've been really trying to make sure I am taking care of my skin. I have been using Cover Girl Liquid Powder for years, but it always seemed to break my neck out. And full disclosure, my face cleaning routine consisted of using Avery's baby wipes (which actually do remove eye makeup surprisingly well). So, needless to say, my skin didn't always look its best.   So, I received some gift cards for my birthday and I decided to go ahead and spring for some better products. First thing I did was get something designed to clean my face. I ordered the Olay ProX Microdermabrasion System.     This system came with the battery-operated scrubber with both a brush and foam pad, plus every day face wash and microdermabrasion wash to be used twice a week. I have really loved using this system. The beauty is that you can really use any face wash you'd like. I will probably buy a pore-reducing wash after the tube they sent me is empty. This syst...

Why I am Pro Universal Healthcare and Changes to Our Healthcare System

Due to my recent proactivity with my credit and paying off debt, I decided to give the hospital a call where I was admitted about a month ago and ask about my bill. I wanted to make sure I didn't miss it in the mail and I wanted to get an idea of what I'd be paying for my stay. I get on the phone with the billing department and the woman is just as nice as can be, really. She was surprised I'd even called her, considering I didn't even have a bill yet. She told me she'd sent the bill over to my insurance to be approved and paid but they hadn't heard back yet. "Just out of curiosity," I asked, knowing I would be responsible for 20% of the final bill, "how much was it?" What I heard next shocked me.   "$61,000" she said.   I said, "$61,000? I was only in the hospital for a night and only on anti-biotics, you can't be serious! My daughter cost me less than a third of that to give birth to and I was in the hospital two nights!...
