Creative and Artistic....

Well I think my petunia flowers are going to grow hopefully they don't die...lol...I bought some on sale the other day at walmart and I like to think I saved them..they were pitiful looking so now I planted them in the flower bed and I am hoping that they will be ok..they look better I think...really want the wave petunias to grow because they are so pretty and are bright...flowers make things look happier....

I think I have decided on my accent color for the house and it will be in the blue family color wheel..probably a navy blue-ish color for the cellar and the doors...to highlight and bring out the gray paint on the house....I love colors and painting and flowers..they make things look better....and pretty!!!...nobody wants things to look boring and sad...because the same old things around the house all the time need a change...new paint and new flowers and room arranging....that's why I love interior design so much along with painting...2 of my favorite things!

I'm good at choosing colors and flower arranging...painting.....interior design is so awesome...it's always fun to change room themes around and have fun...That's my creative artistic side.....I've always been artsy and liked the arts, music, painting and just colors of all things always catch my eye....it's just me...so in some ways I guess I am a real artist..i have the creative gene!!!

music has always been easy for me to learn and write and sing that's why I love that so much too..always been easy for me to learn and I'm also very good at drawing and painting...

I need to buy/download some new Lifehouse songs for my mp3 player...love that band.

bought a huge word find book today and I LOVE those things!!!.......gets kind of addictive searching out the words when you have spare time....and are a little bored.

so I have recently in the past few weeks almost tried out all of the new slushes at Sonic!!!...LOL...yes, I am a nerd.....I tried the lemon one today and it was like a lemonade..really good..but the one I haven't tried yet is the peach-ring slush..I'm curious about that one....haha!!!

tomato plants started in the garden....wonder if they will grow much this year?

love J.

this weekend so far....

Just got back from town and buying a few things at the grocery store..yesterday I bought some creep feed for my baby calf Stormy and I have officially weaned her off the bottle!!!....yay!....no more powdered milk...getting tired of mixing it up every morning and measuring it out....lol....I need at least 20 more baby calves to bottle feed....haha!..could you imagine 20 bottles to mix up every morning?!!

Creep feed is fairly inexpensive right now....but she's doing good on the creep feed.I make sure she has plenty of water and some alfalfa hay to eat...she really likes the hay the best I think...

looking all over the house this morning for those stupid Air Wick plug-ins...I like things to smell good and the house should too!..i wanna try the new Snuggle fabric softener scented Air Wick refill..I like the smell of Snuggle fabric softener....but I'm using up the apple cinnamon ones I had left over from Christmas then I will buy the Snuggle scented ones...I like to try new ones all the time..yes,...I'm a nerd about this kinda stuff...well, lots of things I get nerdy about but that's ok...haha!!!

bought a kit to make key lime pie bars...it was a mix in a box kinda like those lemony tasting bars desserts...I'm hoping key lime is really good...I like key lime pies and things citrus like in the summer so hopefully it turns out tasting good...

still thinking about painting the house so I've got quite a few more buckets of gray paint to buy to finish up all sides of the house and the porch so then I'm thinking I'm going to paint the cellar door a navy blue or something dark blue as my accent color..something grayish blue like..ya know...different but not too different to take away from the color scheme...

hope Dad is doing ok..love ya.

different is good....

I find myself today thinking about trading in my car for an old blue pickup or an older pickup  to paint and fix up....I'm so sick of my car and I want something older and...a truck to drive all the time...sure I know it would be a lot of work...but a pretty blue old truck caught my eye in town the other day when I went somewhere and I thought...that's EXACTLY what I need or an old fix-up truck like that to drive down these country roads in.....

I could do a lot more with a truck than a car farm-wise...but if it takes a lot of gas that might be a problem...but oh well...I will have to wait and see on that...just a day dream or a thought right now.....

lots of rain last night and thunderstorms..slept really good last nite....electricity went out a while...

I like watching storm clouds in the evenings..so pretty.

going to work on painting the house some more once in dries up out there...I really like the gray paint...I want to re-paint all the rooms in the house as well I'm thinking....all new look...keep it interesting....change is good...sometimes I think....lol

been wearing my cowboy hat..well I guess cowgirl hat....haha!!!..blue bead strand and a glittery hair pin on the band....gotta have my sparkles!!!...keeps the sun out of my eyes and off my face..sunburn is no good..ouchie!

I like banana laffy taffy candy...lol....loved it when I was a kid...apparently I still love it.

love ya, j.

keep sunday spiritual....

Went to Subway today and got a half sub with turkey, pepperoni, mustard, onions, lettuce, black olives, and of course pickles!!!...LOVE pickles...lol....I got a fountain drink lemonade that's all I drink is lemonade anymore...and water...

sundays are lazy days I usually take sundays to reflect on my spirituality since I haven't been going to church lately..kinda bored at the same old same old church eventually a new church sometime...whenever I get the notion..but I love to watch Charles Stanley on tv he's a good preacher I think....

I found this in a daily scripture book(by Max Lucado) a book that a relative gave me this weekend it made me laugh at myself because I love cows and I like taking care of them...

When God called Moses to a summit meeting, the people panicked like henless chicks...The scurvy of fear infected everyone in the camp. They crafted a metal cow and talked to it...More than three thousand years removed, we understand God's frustration. Turn to a statue for help? How stupid....face your fears by facing a cow? Udderly foolish! We opt for more sophisticated therapies:Belly Stretching food binges or budget busting shopping sprees. We bow before a whiskey bottle or lose ourselves in an eighty-hour work week.Progress? Hardly.We still face fears without facing God....rather than turn to God we turn from him., hardening our hearts. The result? Cow-worshiping folly...

made me giggle anyway.

love j.

shopping and painting....

Did some shopping yesterday...didn't buy anything...it's amazing to me how I can go shopping and NEVER find anything I really want or need...love jewelry..love clothes...love makeup..Looked in Sephora yesterday..I LOVE that store...so many makeups I want to try...and perfumes in there...but...didn't buy anything....oh well..

love the Sam Moon jewelry but haven't got to go to the store in Ft Worth...yet...all kinds and inexpensive...never been a girl who has to have the most expensive jewelry..i like the cheapest kind the best...because I can always lose high priced jewelry...and I like the cheapest stuff..because it's so colorful and fun and you can buy more when it's cheaper...I was thinking of ordering some jewelry off their website sometime..but haven't yet...I wanna go to the store and look one day...for fun!

Thinking of buying some more targets to start practice shooting at....getting interested in target shooting...the more I go the more I learn..

painted the house today....well part of it......*gray*.....not done of course...many more sides to finish painting..i LOVE to paint.

nite nite.
