This was an extremely awesome trip. We learned a lot and went on a beautiful hike. Well this reservation was over one and a half hours away and noticed about 45 minutes in that I left my camera at home! {insert me kicking myself in the butt} Well had to make the best of it with my cell phone. The sights were beautiful.<br />

On average I am losing 1.24 pounds a week. Not too shabby. I have found that I get more inspired everyday to maintain the loss. I NEVER want to be heavy again. It is way too hard to get rid of it as you get older. I have a couple of new pictures to remind myself of where I came from and never want to get back to and some newer ones of where I am. Though the newest is my NEW employee photo, therefore YUCK it does show the weight loss. Yeah! I have to say that I have the MOST supportive husband, son, and family/friends in general. They are constantly giving praises and encouragement. I have discovered that having the support of family and friends makes the fight a lot easier. My cousin asked me just yesterday what made me want to change. I had to sit and think about it really. I recall it was like a light switch, I think that my health, though not bad, was the main issue. I want to be around for my son for a very long time. You may get hit by a bus tomorrow and that you can not control, but your health and weight is very much all you. Getting it under control was something I had to do. Lets face it, NO ONE wants to be fat. Being healthy is major, major concern, but I am not going to lie, being able to fit into "normal" clothes is a huge plus!!! <br />
I have a pair of jeans from high school and my goal is to fit into them again. Really I want to be less than that, but I will take that too. If anyone out there reading this is wanting to lose weight, is losing, or has lost, please share your story. Hearing how others have done it or are doing it will help those that want to, but are afraid! I have been overweight for so many years; even after losing the weight I still often see myself as FAT! Not that I am skinny, but I have come a very long way. I feel that overweight people are often judged without being heard. I understand that first, visual impressions, are what most people base everything on about a person. Though really first impressions should not be about looks, but about how a person is, acts, treats you and others etc. It saddens me that just because a person is heavier than what others think is acceptable they immediately turn the other way without getting to know them, like I said before, do you really think they WANT to be that way. I honestly can not remember a day when I woke-up and thought, oh great I did not lose an ounce, thank God I am still fat! Often there could be medical issues etc., that without getting to know them you would never know about. Sorry to be on my soap box, but with the recent news about a blogger stating that fat people make her uncomfortable, or something to that nature; it really made me angry. With new shows like Mike and Molly on the air or even the wonderful shows like Ruby and Too Fat for 15; at least these shows are showing the struggle to lose weight. The world have more people in that look like them, than "perfect" people. Again I know this is more a rant than a true blog post, but hey it is my blog post even if no one reads it, I feel much better getting it off my chest!<br />
I would like to wish everyone a super safe Halloween. Until my next post, stay healthy and happy!<br />

Trying to learn about my camera and the proper way to use it and then edit the photos. Wow who knew there was SO much to learn. I just hope my son does not tire too soon of the flash in his face! He is cute, but alas he is also a moving target. I am going to try and take a photo a day, though with a busy schedule this is NOT always possible. Some will be bad and that is ok, moving around the settings of the camera is important for learning. At least that is what I tell myself when there is motion or focus blur! LOL I hope to be able to post some edited photos here along with the original photo and maybe some of the readers out there will comment and let me know what they think? Even if you do NOT like something please let me now. Thanks in advance. Here are a few that are edited only. I will post the unedited photos at a later date. <br />
On another note, we have been busy this summer, vacations, birthdays, and just some beach fun. Here are some random shots of Summer. <br />

Had some surgery in the beginning of August for a bad gall bladder so that has set me back a little in the gym, but continuing to lose despite that. Can not wait to get back full time, full force to the gym. I am going to try and post some pics of before and now so I can really see the progress of ALL my hard work. </div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I wanted to lose 40 pounds by my 40th birthday. I am so happy to say that I DID IT. Now not to let myself get too excited I still have more to go. I am really loving the daily exercising. I feel great though 5AM comes SUPER early. It is worth it. Andrew and I "workout" 6 days a week. Walking, biking etc. Learning to eat the right foods and exercising has really made a difference in my life. Hitting 40 and feeling better than I have in years is amazing. For vacation this year my son chose to go hiking. Now 40 pounds ago I would have vetoed that whole idea, but when he suggested it this year I was really excited. As the day approaches I am looking forward to it. Not only are we hiking, but we are going to be hiking in the Shenandoah Mountains of Virginia. Well since I have been REALLY bad at maintaining this blog, here are a few pics from along my weight loss journey. I lost 4 clothing sizes that feels REALLY good. Like I mentioned before there is still A LOT more to come off, but I am doing it the right way and feel great.</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFldfI7FGRLG5ZRauFVLT9_OSclGZxScOYskrmT4-u_0SqJCyUJjWwC0iLzm2UWPctzAbCp0nj49mZ381x4FJy_nfMUYB_9VACZ9MFYuN3ZrsAyl2GZmDRW1FMqazeJkL8fC25oFTzLZE/s1600/untitled.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" rw="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFldfI7FGRLG5ZRauFVLT9_OSclGZxScOYskrmT4-u_0SqJCyUJjWwC0iLzm2UWPctzAbCp0nj49mZ381x4FJy_nfMUYB_9VACZ9MFYuN3ZrsAyl2GZmDRW1FMqazeJkL8fC25oFTzLZE/s320/untitled.bmp" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhenT5WE6ZkIzsawwky6bLBswdRyKb-Q0zWO6dV4YFYkTN9Hhe-B0Sjk-ymPg5QV8zY26mB1YKD7PZbC-KV_qOq-fTP2P2Vo1ME0PT0ytd884ZalQU1mUsv9kwJz0WXOrhLJDKuSufOanY/s1600/36115_1353375389853_1095450123_30866023_7930636_s.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" rw="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhenT5WE6ZkIzsawwky6bLBswdRyKb-Q0zWO6dV4YFYkTN9Hhe-B0Sjk-ymPg5QV8zY26mB1YKD7PZbC-KV_qOq-fTP2P2Vo1ME0PT0ytd884ZalQU1mUsv9kwJz0WXOrhLJDKuSufOanY/s320/36115_1353375389853_1095450123_30866023_7930636_s.jpg" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqbXxVHQ1L6ukU_3l6PREdxuapEIa-wA7GLjVBehQ2pZPAo7zQTQp2Ns1VNRpTacD2-o-TDl2P4Bwu0FdBvHzNu4FZQyCTH9zZf9IiDxBMzgXjDUBFX6JI5OrhtV5yWpOxy0Dcnm-Nn44/s1600/35096_1366965769604_1095450123_30898188_342533_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" rw="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqbXxVHQ1L6ukU_3l6PREdxuapEIa-wA7GLjVBehQ2pZPAo7zQTQp2Ns1VNRpTacD2-o-TDl2P4Bwu0FdBvHzNu4FZQyCTH9zZf9IiDxBMzgXjDUBFX6JI5OrhtV5yWpOxy0Dcnm-Nn44/s320/35096_1366965769604_1095450123_30898188_342533_n.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;">So the pictures are - December 2009, June 19th, 2010 - my 40th B day party - taking jello shots, and July 4th, 2010. <span class="goog-spellcheck-word" style="background: yellow;">Ok</span> yes was playing beer pong on the 4th.

I call it a journey because the word diet means short lived. I have tried all sorts of diets and gimmicks, but alas my ASS is still way too big. Well I researched many new ways to eat and decided I would try the Sugar Busters method. Now this way of eating is really for people with diabetis, but the way of eating just made sense to me. My jump start was a New Years Day party at my parents' home. All of my family was there and at the end of a LONG week filled with FOOD, FOOD, and more FOOD, we were all feeling puffy! So it began, the family biggest loser contest. Well we all got weighed in. I honestly could not believe how much I was at! If my family was not around I would have cried. Now I would not allow anyone to see my number. I folded my paper up and put it in the bag with the rest. They were to be hidden until Easter Sunday when we would all meet again and see who had lost the biggest percentage. So began my journey and I was taking my husband and son along for the ride. No more special diet cooking for just me while they ate all the carbs and sweets they wanted. I needed full support and they were on board. Well this photo (bad one) was taken of hubby and I in November for our Anniversary. Now I am NOT one for loving my photo being taken, but this one really was GROSS!, but that did not jump start my journey as you can tell it took 2 more months.<br />

LOL did not work. Well I am happy to say that eating healthy and DAILY exercise, you mean you can't sit on your booty and lose weight, has really paid off. The weigh in went like this - I lost the %, but also lost 27lbs! </div><br />

It has just been waaay to long. So I got out some canvases that I have had for some time and went to work. I have a thing for owls lately, incase you have not noticed. Well I have seen so many cute ones being made I just had to use the techniques I have seen out there. This guy was made using making memories paints on the canvas to create a sky scene. Came out better than I thought. I also used Hero Arts wood grain stamp to give the look of bark using clear embossing powder. I also made some of the paper flowers that are so popular right now. They are too stinkin cute. I filled the centers with dew drops and made the belly out of flowers. I had seen this technique used by Cindy Tobey in the CK Magazine and thought it was super cute. Well all in all I loved making it and can not wait to hang it up in my office tomorrow. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

Between school, shopping for the holidays, decorating, and work, I try to fit in as much time as I can to make cards. It is keeping me sane! Here are some of my most current ones.<br />

I am not great at making masculine cards and started to panic about what I was going to do. Well I went to my Unity stamps for inspiration. I used the <a href="http://www.unitystampco.com/stamps/2358-US1028W_Vintage_Ledger">ledger stamp</a> for this card. I think it turned out pretty cute. Was super simple to make too. I love this stamp!<br />

We have technically been together for 19 years. Yesterday was quite amusing. I called to make reservations for The Melting Pot for Friday when my son will be at his Grandparent's house, I picked balloons for the table and a card. I thought this was such a special treat since we used to go there when we were dating. Upon arriving home last night I was greeted with streamers and a cute sign, and flowers courtsey of my son, Aaron. Such an awe moment. Then I was told to get changed we were going out to dinner, all of us. When we arrived at the resturant I just has to laugh, my hubby had made reservations at The Melting Pot. It was so funny. The guy who took my reservation never said anything and when we arrived we were the talk of the night. There were flowers on the table and a card. Another awe moment for the night. He is such a sweet heart. He even wrote Love you in my Facebook Farmville Farm without me knowing. I mean is that a sign of the times or what? I love this man, my friend, husband, and father of my son! 14 years and going strong. Maybe next year I can surprise him with something nice and original. <br />

</div>I have been a super busy elf making all types of Christmas Cards. I am on a mission to get each person a Christmas Card this year, handmade. Here are some that I have been working on. I have used a ton of Paper Trey Ink and some cute $1 stamps from Joann's. I pulled out the embossing gun this year. I have not used that in a long time! I also found some super cute ribbon at Michael's and ribbon is my obsession.<br />

Cosmo Cricket DP, PTI Kraft and Ribbon, Take A Note Stamp Set<br />
<br />
I have been hard at work making Christmas Cards too. I will post those through out the week. I am sorry for the crappy photos, I left my camera on the wrong setting.<br />
This past weekend my sister-in-law had the great idea of taking pictures of the kids to give to my parents for the holidays. So all dressed in white t-shirts and jeans we set off to my parent's backyard to snap away. Well what do you get with 4 boys who really do not want to have their pictures taken.<br />

Kids growing at such a rapid rate that it seems like seconds from one year to the next. Before you know it they are almost as tall as you and wearing your socks! Yes that one is specific. I had to purchase PINK bottom socks to keep a certain little boy out of my drawer, but alas that failed. The other day he fell asleep at my parent's house and when I sent to wake him and removed the blanket I noticed MY pink bottom socks on his monster feet! I really did have to laugh though! I guess it is time for new socks. can you imagine how desparate he must have been to wear pink! <br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">I have been busy creating new cards. Halloween goodie bags for my son's class. I just received my first order from Paper Trey ink and I can not wait to start creating with all the goodies. I loved their stuff so much that the day I got my order I placed another one, and one from Two Peas as well. I must be stopped! <br />
</div><br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">The holidays are coming and I really want to make my own cards this year again. I feel I will have to start NOW! My classes start up again in November and I want to make the most of my time NOT in class. Once they start I am screwed for "me" time. Oh well it was a blast while it lasted. <br />
</div><br />
My son was so excited to go to school today. The kids were going to have a web chat with R.L. Stine, the author today! AND his teacher said he could bring in his own "experiment" to do with the class. Mentos and Diet Coke. I really wish I was there to take pictures! I sure hope his teacher realizes what she is getting into. It was funny as we were walking out the door today he goes, "hey Daddy shouln't I have my safety glasses for this". I thought OH NO this is NOT going to be good! LOL<br />
<br />
So living in South FL, the heat tends to kill the Fall mood, though it is my favorite holiday. I dream of living up North where there is an actual change of seasons. Halloween is supposed to be about 88 degrees, nice right? NOT. My son's scout pack had their annual Halloween event on Monday. All the kids came in costume and each Den had a carnival game for them to play. Well needless to say it was a normal SO FL night with humidity reaching 85%. All the kids with makeup were nice and shiney! LOL Here are some quick pics of the night.<br />

</div>Well I hope to post pictures of my newest cards tomorrow. Tonight is laundry and card making. Oh and who can forget Glee, Modern Family, and Cougar Town. Thank God for Hulu. The freaking Cougar Town cracks me up! Modern Family is a hoot! Bought time comedies were funny again! Glee is my modern day Fame from back in the day. I used to watch that with my Mamaw and I am sure she would have loved Glee today!<br />
<br />
Well I have to get back to my REAL job. Hope everyone is enjoying their week!<br />

My Mom and Dad took my son and my 3 nephews for the night and most of Saturday. AHHHHH relaxing at its finest. Saturday my friend Tammy and I decided to go and check out one of the LSS and wow was it wonderful. They had a ton of beautiful items, so much EYE CANDY!!!! Ribbon......Prima flowers and papers......American Crafts...... well let me just say a little too much money later and we were happy campers! After leaving the store in pouring down rain, yes did I mention we live in the sun shine state..... well off to get my son. Now mind you my parents have had 4 boys since Friday after school ranging in the ages from 3-9. Here is what I found,<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The boys were over to decorate with my Mom for Fall/halloween. Though come to find out in South FL, where it is still 81 degrees at 7AM, the pumpkin patches are not open yet, so this was as far as they got.<br />

Ugh we are NOT good together. :) All in all a GREAT weekend. Tammy already started creating. Her new cards are FANTABULOUS! Tonight after cleaning my scraproom I will start getting crafty. Can not wait. <br />

It has been an extremely long week. Our kitty cat is still healing and we have been spoon/force feeding her for a week. Today is the first day she is acting semi-normal. I hope this is a good sign. Though only time will tell. We are praying that she makes a full recovery. Thanks for all your prayers and calls. Sasha is a true member of our family. On another note my son Aaron is a Webelo Scout this year and his Pack is selling Popcorn as a fund raiser. I really HATE fundraisers and normally have him hit up the close family for support, but this year the Popcorn company we are using has an option for making a Military Donation, this will send Popcorn to the troops overseas. It gives them a little bit of home and comfort. It is a nice treat for those men and women who are protecting our freedoms. So if anyone is interested in sending popcorn to the troops and helping Aaron's pack please follow this <a href="http://www.trails-end.com/estore/home_alt.jsp?_requestid=321106"><span style="color: #b45f06; font-size: large;">link</span></a> and Aaron's scout number is 3067142 the name that comes up is Aaron R. We really appreciate your support. <br />
Now on to my cards for the week. <br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Ok I did post this one on Sunday, but I ended up coloring in the heart.

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Thanks for stopping by. I hope everyone has a great weekend. In South Florida we are still waiting for Fall to get here, but for those of you with fall in the air go out and enjoy it. My parents are taking all 4 grandkids this weekend - all boys - ranging from 3-9. Hubby and I get a night out and we still do not know what to do. Decisions Decisions. I am sure we will figure something out. <br />

Our Kitty Sasha has been extremely ill. We had to make a decision about putting her to sleep or trying surgery and praying for the best. We have had her for 17 years and she is totally a member of our family. So after MANY tears we decided to try surgery. Well, we have her home since Friday night and there are times I am not sure we made the right decision, but force feeding for now and 6 meds a day is hopefully going to work. I really can not imagine putting her down. It would break our hearts. <div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Well to take my mind off things I got busy scrapping. Sasha was in the animal hospital for 2 nights and it was very hard coming home to an empty home. Here are the fruits of my labor. <br />

</div>I bought the little pad of papers from the Earth Love collection and they are perfect for making cards. I used the Unity Stamp for the sentiment. This design is also from Kristina Werner. I have to say she is the Card Making QUEEN! Thanks to her I am back to using stamps and making cards. I really Love it. Well thanks for looking. <br />
