Thank you all so much for making my first Weekend Blog Hop a complete success! I met over 40 new friends and many more from visiting each of your blogs. I will definitely be continuing this next weekend and thereafter. Special thanks to everyone who promoted my hop, especially Pink Dandy who is just a doll!
So as we all wind down from what was supposed to be a weekend but seemed to go by in a 2 hour blur, I hope everyone is well. Summer is coming to an end (in theory, it will be 100 deg. here through October:( and kids are back to school soon. Can't say it was a really productive summer as far as outings away from home. But in regards to family fun, we had a blast! Lots of laughing, hanging out together, and cherishing the kids before they are too old to be smooshed☺ I've got my business down to a reasonable amount where I can sleep up to 5 hours a night, so that's good. I actually saw my best friend last week for the first time in 3 months and I never knew how much I missed my non-cyber life till I got that break. I've also been forcing myself to take my illustrations a lot more serious and really work from the ground up. Unlike some of my competitors (you lazy a$$es know who you are) I create most-all of my graphics from scratch. I am obsessed now with building the perfect woman! Not being creepy, I mean the perfect graphic of a woman! lol I've never really mastered making people so it's been a chore to say the least.
What weirdness lurks around the corner for you my dear readers? A lot of biography reviews, more thoughts on Jersey Shore, music of the mid-late 80's and why a 39 yr. old already has empty nest syndrome!
Sure there's a lot more, but my house is suddenly filling up with the a$$y smell of hamburger helper that my 14 yr. old is cooking, so I have to go fast and fling open all the doors/windows!
Love y'all, thanks for reading!

Found you through Pink Dandy! :) http://pjjots.blogspot.com/2010/08/foresthill-devotional.html
At least your 14 year old is trying, LOL! Hope you got the smell out of the kitchen. Have to say I love your blog design, very fresh, and not "to" pink. Visiting from Follow Us Monday.

rofl I agree - at least you didn't have to do the cooking. It's a start. A small start... lol
Hi there, Tara! Thanks for visiting the cottage and for the lovely award! It was so kind of you to honor me in that way.
I will be posting about it and the blog hop very shortly. Come by for a peek, when you can.
Blessings,

Cool blog! Where did you study graphic design?
I feel the exact same way about our summer. I didn't get much done in regards to work, but did get a lot of quality time with the family and kiddos. Gosh, they grow up quickly, don't they?
Hi! Hamburger helper is usually a last resort at our house and yeah this weekend did fly by in a blur for us too. We spent saturday battling the heat in Phoenix when we went to visit a friend who just had a baby and sunday just flew by.
Anyway I am following you via Meet Me Monday. Would love for you to follow and visit me as well! :)

Can't wait for more thoughts on Jersey Shore! I'm so hooked! (When you said "smooshed" it made me think of Jersey Shore).
What an adorable blog! I noticed you just started following me, so I wanted to say, "Thanks!" ♥ You're a dear!
I haven't watched Jersey Shore, but I hear it's terribly addicting :)
