Help...

I am not good at asking for help.

But I need help. I volunteer for Partners with Youth, which gives scholarships to families; allowing them to participate in swimming lessons, preschool, after school programs, and camp. 

With less than a week left, we are over $100,000 short of what we need to raise...
Meaning we will have to turn away kids.

I do not want to turn away kids.

Please help by donating. Anything you can. I know many of you don't have a lot. I don't either... but every dollar will go towards a child in need. 

I've decided for the next week (Now until next Thursday) I will send a free headband to anyone who donates $25 or more to help a family afford quality youth programs.
Donate today...because the first 5 donations will get a little something extra... if you like surprises, make sure you are one of the first 5 :)
Okay. That's it. I appreciate any and all donations...whether it be 1 dollar or 100 dollars!! Thank you so much

Suck it up Sucky

This week. 
Oh this week. 

I went back to work this week. 
Had to leave this little chubster with friends...



And it sucked.
I nearly ran a couple stop signs driving to pick her up. 

Leaving your baby sucks... I could just kiss her chubby cheeks all day long. 
Seriously though...who WOULDN'T want to kiss those cheeks??

I wish I could be with her all the time.
But making enough money to pay for her insurance is important too....

sometimes it sucks to be responsible...

Also, sorry in advance for my lack of blogging in the coming weeks/months. Full time job + Full time mom + Excessive amounts of volunteering = Not a lot of time for crafting or anything else. 

Don't worry though...I'll be back.

You Made It LINK PARTY #2

Man, for an impromptu Link Party, you guys really delivered!! 
I loved checking out all your stuff (You know...check out your stuff... wink wink)

Here were a couple of my favorites...

This is a STENCIL... Yeah, I almost crapped my pants too. I had no idea paint could look so good. Jen at Life Crafts and Whatever has figured it out. Hats off to you Jen. I applaud your genius. 

The second one is from Mejia Mama. Her craft room redo is like a room of dreams...and not those dreams where you end up making out with your aunt (I'm not the only one right???). It's a crafter's dream. (The one where you fantasize about Mod Podge and Glue Guns)

I want to get in on the whole yarn wreath trend. Heck, I want to get in on the wreath trend. The only thing hanging on my door is a coupon for Jose's Taco Shop. Delicious? Yes. Trendy? No. Simplistically Sassy shows how to make this fantastic wreath...

And last but not least, I ALWAYS have something in my hair... you know. Glue, glitter, crap (Yeah, I'm sure it's been in there. I have a baby... there's crap everywhere). Maybe I should put something awesome in my hair. Like this bow by Sherri Amour. Love it!

And now onto the link up!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Link up any of your crafts/recipes/junk you've made.

I'll be featuring a few more projects next week, so don't forget to check back!

So grab a button, link up, and do a little dance!!
