For all my new followers...and visitors from the Lovelink on gettingcricky.com ;)

OOOOoo MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS! I have SO many new friends & followers...

OKAY I am now highly addicted to this bloogin thang'!
Can I EVEN begin to thank you enough?
Each and every single one of you...there is not one message here that doesn't
touch my heart...and to hear the words "me too!" I think is so healing..don't you?

To hear there are others out there...like yourself....people that you have something
in common with -- something special...whether..its
being an "Italian Hillbilly" :)
or that we share this insane, wonderful hobby of paper crafting & art....
its just so COOL! AND I LOVEEee it!

Ladies...I will definitely be having some blog candy...
In fact, I am discussing the idea of just sending EVERYONE
a check! LOL

It would of course, be a postdated check  -- that you can cash once I hit
the lottery! LOL

I mean...NOW I get it...why folks do blog candy.
You WANT to do something for the people that find you
interesting and take their precious time to jot a few words or
share a story with you... WOW --
Wow wow wow....

Now here is the problem - I want EVERYONE to win?!?!?
How do you work that?
LOL

I have been invited back next week to be a guest designer on Gettincricky.com ...
(would you believe my husband even knows Miss Kristals web address?!?!)
LOL
isn't that funny!
He has heard me say so many times -
I am the guest designer -
I won the challenge -
I am going to be on next week...
on Gettincricky.com that now HE
is saying it! ROFL @ Myself...

Ahhhh - poor thing.

He is probably in hopes that this will pass like my other
obsessions & promises over the years...

You ladies know what I mean - right?
Those times you say something and at the moment...
you REALLY mean it

Statements & ideas like....

* getting more dogs when we already had 2 ...
(plus a ferret, a rabbit named Tampa, and a bird...ferret DEFINITELY not "MY" idea)
* sleeping outside Target the nite before Black Friday
(remember, we live right outside Cincinnati! Its rather cold Black Friday eve)
* trying to lose 10 lbs in 3 days by eating only hot dogs, bananas & green beans
(cause that would have meant HE would only eat those items too!)
* never ever going grocery shopping again (cause of the outrageous prices)
* killing the kids when they get home (they all made it out alive as the
baby is now 26)
* never EVER cooking a full holiday feast again! (cause I burnt up the
easiest thing on the menu)
* Never driving again
* Never riding with HIM again
(which I am actually sticking to this past year...he likes to take
"the back way" which ends up taking us hours longer than the normal way)
And last but not least
* Maybe having just ONE more little baby before its too late
(thank heavens we made it past that one...otherwise I would
be raising our 9 year old right now...and let me tell you, I love
the kids - but I am glad they are raised now)

Okay okay --- enuf chit chat...

I just wanted to thank you guys again ---
you are my new WWW sistahs!
(not wrestling WWW but rather world wide web)

Can't wait to see what everyone contributes to for the
Sing a Song challenge!

XOXOXO
Vicki

Paper piecing patterns is one way you can let everyone win something. Doesn't cost anything. I like to give away svg files but not everyone uses them.

This was a great post!! Definitely laughed quite a bit! Love all those statements! LOL. So much fun to learn more about you.
My boyfriend can tell quite few crafy youtuber's just by hearing their voice. He'll say to me from the other room, "Are you watching Mary, Susan or whoever might be on." Lol. Soon your hubby will be doing the same! Have a great evening Vicki.
