WELCOME TO BLOGABELLA

and boy did I have an exciting week! LOL

I went to the hairdresser..LOL.. this is a very big deal in my life.. I am SO TYPE A. can’t sit still so I refuse to go.. until I get ALL grey and can’t take it anymore.. and off I go! So my little Jayden told me that it was her “LIFELONG DREAM” (LOL) to see my hair straight.. so I decided to put my TYPE A on the backburner and go ahead and get it straightened.. not only that, but I got a HUGE blonde streak in the front.. I needed a change can you tell?

when Jayden saw me, she started to cry.  And then she loved it.. and then she said it wasn’t me.. and she wasn’t happy with it.

So I washed it today.. and it’s back to curly.. I have to admit as much as I complain about my curls.. It’s what I am most comfortable with

Another big event this week was Jayden finally got her cast off.. it’s been two months of weekly appointments at the hospital.. it’s been difficult.  And they take the cast off and lo and behold.. INFECTION… so now we are trying to treat that 🙁

here she is.. most of the time with a smile on her face .. here she was very afraid 🙁

Ok that’s a little snipped about my week.  How was yours?? LOL

And now for some winnahs from last week

Hiya sistahs!

Well I promised to share some of my artsy stuff with you so here it is.. if you follow me in Instagram then you may have seen these 🙂

I LOOOVE collage.. I have said that for a long time but I really do.. I love the act of cutting and sticking.. I can’t explain it… finding the perfect image.. finding “accessory” images.. and putting it all into something new.. it’s SOOO much fun 🙂

I have started a little “gluebook” (a pocket sized moleskine sketchbook -3.5″ x 5″) and I vowed not to use ANY paint in here.. JUST paper… and I am LOVING this project.  L-O-V-I-N-G.  Whenever I need to “decompress”.. I head for this book and just cut and stick.  Am I weird? (ok don’t answer that LOL)

So here are some pages from my new GLOObook. (I like how GLOO looks LOL.. )

Tomorrow I will share some of my painting with you too..

WANNA START A GLOO BOOK???  it’s a great way to use your scraps..

I would love to hear.. and if you do.. maybe we can have a GLOO BOOK sharing day.  That would be FUN!

let me know in da COMMENTS or send me an email 🙂

Mwah to da sistahs who not only LOVE the way GLOO looks spelled this way, but who also wanna GLOO.

Hiya sistahs,

I am so sorry I have been MIA these past couple of weeks.. I have had horrendous headaches which ended up being just muscle pain (thank goodness).. and now have had my first ever series of treatments from a chiropracter.. and I have to say, I feel SO much better.. I thought no one could help me and I was a big skeptic I must admit but I found an amazing chiro who so far has helped me .. so let’s all keep our fingers crossed that my mojo is back and my health is back!!

just received my THIRD replenishment order of our SENIORITAS, so you should be receiving your notifications next week that your goodies are on their way!  thank you so much for your patience and your overwhelming support:)
