It's Monday....again lol

Did you guys have a good weekend?? I sure did. I love lazy days with my family. We always have a good time together. I'm glad my kids still want to play with me and I pray as they get older we will always remain close. Ok enough mushy stuff.

Are you guys watching A Raisin in the Sun tonight!? I can't wait to see it.

Did you guys know that Michael's now has ONLINE COUPONS?!?! Grab it and print! I'll find SOMETHING to buy lol.

I worked on my Vogue Trench Jacket and boy oh boy. Setting the sleeves has been a PITA. To some people, these skills come easily lol, I am not one of them lol. I've done set in sleeves before but this is NOT working for me. A good friend of mine sent me some tips, so I will try that today. If I STILL can't get it to work, I'm going to get my mom to help me. First jacket, sooooo. We will see. Hopefully it doesn't end up in the trash lol. If I don't post it as finished by the end of the week....you can bet I've said bye-bye to my pretty yellow jacket lol. It is only fabric. I am not going to stress.

I cast on for my next knitting project, so I will take a progress shot of it today. So far so good.

Sunday Aj had his championship party. These little boys are SO cute lol.

Here are a few pics:

I love their shirts:

Too cute! LOL

And one of me and the girls. Stacey....there is Jaelyn! LOL

Jaelyn LOVES bags/purses. LAWD.

My mom got a new puppy...Meet Max

I thought of Tany and Nora when I saw him. They love these dogs! He is SUCH a playful puppy. Awwww.

And Emmy. Mom' s other dog...looking to Kayla for some love....she does NOT like Max. AT ALL.

That's about it. LOL.

If you didn't know, Gorgeous Things is having a great sale. I ordered a bunch of fabrics. Just GORGEOUS lol.

I am in a scrapping funk. Seriously. Send some scrappy mojo my way.

OH! Have you guys heard about Pink Pasilee ??? OMG! It's like the my.spac.e for scrappers!!! If you want an invite let me know and I'll send you one! I am going to play for a little while over there today. Add some pictures and what not! LOL

Another OH lol, my girl Greta has a challenge blog Scrap Your Crap. Got a lotta unused supplies!?!?? Go check them out...I'll meet you there...that might get me out of my funk.

Ok, that really is it. LOL, have a great day guys!
Toodles!

Good morning! First of all, what a great post. I'd forgotten about "A Raisin in the Sun" premiering tonight. I'm gonna check it out for sure. I remember enjoying the original one. Hope we get done with soccer practice in time :-).

About this Michaels coupon thing, is that something you signed up for on their site? I printed this one,but I'd like to forward that on to my buddies here too.

I LOVE the pictures!

Ok, I've gotta go back and click on your other links :-). Have a great day, my friend.

[carmell]

[Christina]

I sure will watch tonight! ... hmmm good cause to have some snacks:)

[Dylan]

I've actually seen some Michael's Coupons before on DealTaker.com. You might give them a shot in the future.

[Elaray]

I'm curious about Sean Combs appearance in "A Raisin in the Sun". I admit, I'm a little skeptical. But I've had the DVR set for days, so I can watch it.

[Erica C.]

The kids are BEAUTIFUL Adrienne!!!

[Solidia]

Love the picture of you and the girls! What a pretty threesome you all make. And thanks for the Michaels coupon. I will be using it tonight before the snow hits. :)

[sappmama]

BEAUTIFUL picture of you and the girls!

Thanks for the Michael's coupon. I don't go much but it's nice to know I can save some cash when I do.

My monthly craft budget is spent, so I am NOT going over to Gorgeous Things! :(

[vee]

love live pink!! :) the puppy is so cute and you and the girls look so pretty. way to go AJ! :)

[Christie]

Oh..Raisin. Let me be totally honest. I'm really scared to see Sean's performance. I'm really trying to reserve judgment, but I just don't know...Puffy? Puffy? PUFFY!?!?!?!!
Sidney Poitier left some big shoes to fill for sure.

[Lisa]

i'll have to see if i can check out the movie. has he ever acted in anything before?!!
your mom's new baby is sooo cute! hi max!!
good luck on your jacket girl!

[Nikki]

Michaels with an on-line coupon?!?! Lawd, hell is about to freeze over! Congrats to AJ & his team. Your kids just keep getting cuter & cuter. I'd love to get an invite to Pink, I wanna check it out. *sending scrappy mojo your way* I completed 4 pgs today, unheard of for me. I'm determined to make more scrapping time and today really helped.

[Noel]

I got PP coming up in both new kits...so you'll be playing with the papers very soon my friend!

:)

[Jeanine]

Am very much looking forward to A Raisin in the Sun tonight. PP looks like so much fun and interesting. Too bad I don't know a thing about scrapping or where to begin. LOVE your family pics. Especially the black & white photos.

[Neecha]

I had a fun weekend with the teenagers, I will be watching A Raisin in the Sun tonight. I really want to see how Diddy performed plus I played Momma in the play in high school. Please send me an invite Pink Paislee. Have a great week!

[Neecha]

I forgot to tell you I absolutely LOVE the picture of you and the girls!

[Michelle]

Thanks for the tip on the Michaels coupons! I better go check that out!

Your picts are so cute!

[rhonda]

shoot...I forgot about that movie coming on tonight. dang it!
love the pic of the 3 of you...cute cute cute!

[yaiAnn]

Awwww you all are so cute! And the little rott!!! AWWWWWWW!!

[del]

What a darling little puppy! They're irrestible at that age.

I love lazy days too; we just don't get enough of those.

[robin]

If you have any tips on setting in sleeves on jackets, I would LOVE to see them!!! I didn't have a lot of trouble with my button down shirt (the only other time I've set in sleeves) but I think it was because the sleeve caps weren't very full so there was less fabric to ease in.

[Tany]

Setting in sleeves can be complicated and very difficult if the pattern is designed with too much ease for the fabric in question. I wish you can make it, but if not, you're right, it's only fabric!

LOVELY pics, I love the b&w of you and the girls! Just beautiful!

[Berry]

Oh! No stress, I'm confident you will find a solution for these sleeves, I so want to see that jacket done...

[Nora]

How was A Raisin in the Sun?? I love Diddy [or Puffy or whatever his name is]! Did you see him on Letterman promoting the movie - soooo funny: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qforOkHPkT4 and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-Vr1vZLQxE&feature=related
