Art Journaling

I recently was introduced to art journaling and I love it. I have been journaling on and off for years but to be honest it can be very dull at times. Well this sure changes things. The first person I thought of was RMKK's girls maybe they might be interested in this. I'd love to know what they think. I now have 3 journals going, soon I'll be starting a 4th. They are so much fun. I found this link really helpful in getting started. If anyone has been doing this I'd love to hear from you and see your work.

Crocheting or What?????

K loves it when I'm crocheting cause I let her sit on my lap let her hold on to the hook and help me crochet. I finally gave her a big hook with some yarn she wanted to make an ear like I was doing. I think it won't be long and she'll be crocheting a chain in no time. She even put all her yarn and hook away in a purse I made for her she now has her own crochet bag. 





Until Later,
Holly

The Hunger Games

OK how many have read the books. I wasn't going to because I had only heard one thing about them that it was about children killing children for adult entertainment. Yes that is one thing that does happen in the book but not the way I thought. I read all 3 books last week only after hearing on conservative talk radio one of the callers said that these books are ones that people on the left are not going to like. I thought now I have to read them and boy am I glad I did they have been the talk of our house. Not so much the books themselves but the subject. I can hardly wait for the movie to come out on DVD. The only thing I have a problem with is for years movies when there has been a president he has been a black man now with this movie he's a white man. While reading the books I saw president Snow as a black man and yes he looked alot like you know who. As much as I enjoyed these books I will say they are not first ones like this as Laura Ingraham said this is the Red Dawn of this generation. I would say it was more like Amerika. With the way our country is going with more and more government these book are a very interesting look at what if. I would love to talk to others who have read these book you can email me or just comment let me know your thought on it.
