So being away from my hubby has finally gotten to me enough that I had to go visit him.  I went on a 8 hour drive to see him, Hug him and kiss him.. I drove 8 hours for a BOOTY call LOL

It was worth it!

I feel bad that I left my three kids with  my mom and dad.  EVEN worse my sister rode with me… so mom and dad had to keep Melanie too.

I'm happy that I had her go with me that drive is really really long.

During the day Tiff and I were free to do what we wanted.  My hubby couldn't get time off during the days.  I was sad but knew that might be a problem.

We went to the aquarium

If you Ever get a chance to see San Diego.. GO!!  It was amazing I was surprised at how pretty everything was.  I never once saw graffiti which amazed me to no end in a City so large.   The museums are all in a place called BALBOA PARK its amazing!  There are tons of things to do there.   More piccys here..

I really fell in love with that area.  I didn't get to se as much as I wanted to but cant wait to go back in July and pick up my husband!  We are going to take a few days to do fun stuff as a family then. 

The trip home was bitter sweet.. I was happy to get home to my kids; but so, so heart broken that I didn't get to bring my husband home.   These past few months have been very hard and I couldn't stand it any longer I had to see him.  I broke down crying that I didn't take ONE picture of us together.  I was Heart broke at the thought.  I miss him even more now that I got to see him.  Im really thinking of packing everything up and putting it in storage to go live with him till July.  I know July is close but It hurts so badly!

WOOHOO its time to drink a beer!  Well in my neighborhood anyway.. I decided for Mojo 34 “Cinco de mayo inspired..If you had a day to call your own and party like a rock star what would it be and what would u do?..2nd Use cinco de may decorations as inspiration”

 

Now I was drawing a total blank on something I would make up for my own.. there are already so many parties and holidays that I love to celebrate.  So I just made stuff for this one.

The beer cap bracelet was sort of a idea that jumped into my head.  It didn't come out exactly as I pictured it in my head but then again nothing ever does..

I think Ill try again with a different bracelet design.

 

the card I gave to a girl friend up the street.  I knew she had a pretty good since of humor, so I wasn't  worried she would get offended with the little hat there … actually it was quite a hit.   I still feel like this card needed something but I really couldn't come up with what and ran out of time so it was was given as is..

 

I haven't done much of anything lately I've been in a total funk for some reason.  I have been bad on my diet not following weight watchers points and stuff.  I don't know why but I'm being silly about it all.  I know I want to do the program but some times I get so childish over food.  I really think food is the toughest addiction to kick.

 

SO that's about it for me today :) have a good day and drink a beer or two

Mojo number 33..

 

 

I really love what the girls put out this month.  I really think everyone did such a lovely job.

I cheated on the frame  because didn't want to waste that lovely sass paper  cutting one out crooked.  so its supposed to be a frame but its more of a mat…

Come on over and play with us this time around  http://www.scrapmojo.blogspot.com/

 

My first one eeekkkk It is to scrap you imaginary friend or make one up. And use a animal cracker box as inspiration.   Now I never had an imaginary friend, but I do watch that cute cartoon with my kids called Fosters home for imaginary friends.  I LOVE the cute friends on that show.  So I thought hmmmm if I could add a friend what would it be?

NINJA squirrels!  LOL I have this soft spot for squirrels.  Lets face it they are CUTE, they are FUNNY and in a ninja costume they would kick butt!

Go here to play!  Scrap Mojo  The mojo girls did such a awesome job!  I just feel like I'm not worthy to even be a part of them.   Here is my take on it.

I have been seeing button necklaces on line and wanted to crochet one for myself.  This is my first attempt.  Its not perfect but I like it and I love my foofala buttons. 

I cant wait to make one using mother of pearl buttons OMG that is gonna be pretty.  I also thought it would be fun to make one using charms or sea glass…
