I FINALLY got my camera!!!

For YEARS I have been absolutely lusting over the Canon digital SLR's. Every year around Christmas time I would linger too long in the photo department and then finally pick one up and start turning knobs, changing settings and then taking pictures like I was some professional photographer. Pretty sweet. I'd have all kindsa fantastic pictures! There'd be pictures of other cameras, strange pictures of the floor, some dumb sales assistant picking his nose, a picture of a lady that had the BIGGEST ass I'd ever seen....man there were some great pictures! (I've added some pictures I've taken with it now that I've got it!)
This went on for about seven years. I just couldn't ever bring myself to spend that kinda money on a camera. Even though I'm a self proclaimed picture whore, there's better places the money needed to go.
On my birthday this year, my husband and I were walking around the store and of course, there I was all being a dolt with this totally awesome camera and he said just go ahead and get it. He said it was ok! BUT, my mom like sensibility kicked in.....Christmas was too close and having two kids, I didn't wanna spend the money on myself.
Fast forward to Christmas time (a whole month later). I went in the store where I generally stalk this camera and even went as far as to getting a sales assistant to get the camera out for me and I walked around with it all smug and shit thinking "hey, check me out, I'm gettin' my camera!", but when it came to checking out.....I chickened out. It was just SO much money for something that was for me and me alone and I already had a pretty good point and shoot. UGH! I was driving myslef nuts over a stupid camera!
Well, tax return time is here and I will no longer be stalking the camera aisle, taking pictures.....I GOT MY CAMERA! So, sorry Mr. Sales Assistant, you're gonna have to find someone else to prey on. Sorry Mrs. Hugest Ass EVER, someone else will have to be taking a picture of that bodacious booty of yours whilst your yelling at your snotty kids. Sorry Mr. Floor, your days have came and gone. Besides, they cleaned you and you were a little to new looking for me anyhow. Sorry to all of you. I've got my camera FINALLY.....now I just gotta figure out how to use the damn thing!

June 28 - I Heart Faces Pet Entry

I know, I know....it's be FOREVER since I last posted, but life has majorly gotten in the way. Lots and lots of ups and downs....well mostly downs, but who am I to complain? ....and I'm totally not about to be a Debbie Downer and start whinin '..... that'll come later...I promise.....I'm doin ' this here post ' cuz I wanna have an awesome picture of our ol ' Wheezy Lee and Vin to be posted on the I Heart Faces Blog . It's my first time and Lord knows I probably ain't gonna get it right the first 1,600 times I try, but I'm gonna give it a go anyhow.

I introduced Wheezy Lee to y'all a while back and she's been growin ' like mad. To catch you up on everything you've missed, she hates swimmin ' despite my best efforts....she refuses to be crate trained.....she th

East Atlanta Strut 2010

I've been sewin' my fingers off tryin' to get ready for the East Atlanta Strut . It was the first show I had ever done and it was a BLAST! Bein' used to your standard kinda craft shows, you know the ones.....wood cut into silly stuff, marsh mellow guns, lace and potpourri, you can imagine my excitement when I was accepted to do the Strut, which ain't your mama's craft show. After three years, I've decided to give it a go again. I've really focused on my bears since that's what I really enjoy makin' and it's what everyone seemed to like best. You definitely won't find anything else like 'em out there! They're all sad lookin' and junk.....and people wanna hug 'em when they see 'em. I started sewin' these guys three years ago and after readin' an article in a magazine about a man that went to war, was burned badly while there and came home to his finance, married her and made babies with her despite all his s

Fluffidermy!

I would say 90% of my friends are into buyin' taxidermy. The stuff that lined the walls of my family's homes is more popular than ever! The difference bein' that my family shot that junk themselves and proudly displayed their trophies and ate the rest.... Seein' as how the closest I get to huntin' is huntin' the best deals possible on groceries and I can barely afford toilet paper these days taxidermy ain't gonna find itself to the already awesome walls of my house anytime soon. HOWEVER...... You know, I've been makin' my Battle Scrarred Bears again and in the midst of all the hubub over taxidermy, I decided to start puttin' their sweet little heads on plaques.....and voila!......my own dadgum taxidermy........FLUFFIDERMY!!! I've seen lots of other crafty made....uhhhh....idermy, and even proudly display feltidermy by girlsavage on one of my walls. Fluffidermy is my spin on the awesome that is stuffed craft ...idermy!.....and dammit....ev
