I’m redoing my fun-room…allllmost done! I didn’t groom yesterday until The Husband called to say he was on the way home…you may not be getting this.
I was in my Pa-Jay-Jays until 5:00. Hummmm. But I was uber productive in the fun-room!
Today I’m posting a few pictures from Ellie’s first birthday party…I was totally a slacker with taking pictures that day…
Do you love pom-poms as much as I do???
Our tiny girl wasn’t sure about eating a cupcake…
~Love to each one of you today…Happy Wednesday Friends~
I’m going to groom before 5:00 today…hopefully.

You know I’m doing this 365 project and upload a photo every day on Flickr. There is so much inspiration on Flickr, one thing people love to do is the “Cookie Splash”! All the cool people do it!!!
Being a cookie monster, I had to try out a cookie splash…
I’ve come to a conclusion about the proverbial cookie splash…
You can tell a whole heck of a lot about a person by how their cookie splash goes…here’s what I mean,
*Was it easy?(This tells loads about your skill level)
*How many times did it take to get a good shot?(This gives a hint about your hand-eye coordination )
*Did you feel nervous or giddy or nothing at all when you dropped that “cookie” into the milk?(This is hands down an indication of your personality. Are you a dare-devil or an overly-careful person. Or just don’t care either way 
*How’d you feel about the mess?(If you’re neat and tidy you would have hated the mess or, if you’re more relaxed you’d have a: ‘who cares…just have fun’ kind of attitude!)
I used an egg for my splash and for the-love-of-Pete, I did it 15 times…I was, for some reason, as nervous about dropping the egg into the milk as I might be to say….jump out of an airplane.
And as for the mess…ohhhh, I thought my eyes were gonna exploded out of my head every time I had to clean up the milky mess…
So, I suppose my cookie splash confirmed what I already knew about myself…I’m a nervous, overly careful not -so-skillful (pretend)photo-taker, who has little or no hand-eye coordination and nearly implodes when there’s a mess in my line of sight.

I had a wonderful post planned for today. Stephie, Ellie and I were making some pretzel candy coated dragon flies for Ellie’s first birthday party.(I’ll show you next week!)
But just as we started Emma, my pregnant daughter, called. She had fainted in the shower and hit her head! I rushed to get her and Emma and I spent the day in the emergency room!
She’s fine. Emma has SVT (See THIS for more info.). She can be standing still and her heart will jump to 180-200 beats. With her terrible morning sickness, she was terribly dehydrated. Add that to the SVT and the poor baby could hardly stand up. Other than a goose-egg right in the center of her forehead, she seems to be fine now. We’re headed to her Dr. today to follow up.
(she insisted on covering up the bump on her head !)
Anyhoo…I missed the dragon fly candy making session!
So today I’m going with my photo of the day from Thursday…
our once feral kitty … Reba~
HERE is my favorite Reba story. HERE are links to several little stories about her background. (If you love cats, you gotta see this. She’s a miracle!)
Reba’s come a looooong way in 16 months, remember when she found us she lived outside and wouldn’t let us anywhere near her…
Like Reba, I too am learning to trust…
Love to each and every one visiting today.
