FTU Tutorial "Witch of the Night


I used a tutorial for doing this tag as it involved a template. Templates are my specialty in my job, but this type of template is quite different.  I enjoyed doing it, just as much as I enjoy creating NextGen templates...except...this one is more colorful! 

We went out to lunch at Wildflower today, just hubby and myself.  Very enjoyable and relaxing.  I had a martini along with a cheeseburger. Now who goes to a fancy place and orders a cheeseburger? I do...haven't had a cheeseburger in ages! 

Halloween is almost upon us. I do have a couple of timelines left to create. Can't believe how fast the year has flown!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Beautiful autumn day here in Arizona! Went on another spending spree buying VeryMany tubes at 30% off.  I think my cup runneth over...lol.  Anyway, love the spot of smoke coming out of her cauldron...thanks to Simone Animations, she makes animating easy and fun.  (Ok, I had to make sure and follow her tutorials, but this last one, I only did a recheck to make sure I did it right! I did!!)

Enjoy the rest of the weekend, Monday comes way too fast these days!!

Simply Irresistible

Beautiful vampiress from Very Many.  I am addicted to her tubes! I admit it! I have more of her tubes than another other artist.  

My daughter got another 2016 Rogue on Tuesday and she's a happy camper at last. Only thing left to do is file for the GAP insurance. She is busy collecting all the necessary paperwork and this will all be over once its faxed to the insurance office.  I learned quite a bit about different types of insurance and how they pay out in a total loss. Big shout out to Jim Click Nissan for all their assistance during this nerve wracking event. Light is at the end of the tunnel!

Still working on the remodeling of our master bathroom.  Slowly but surely its being torn down and all the dry wall is being tossed out. The new walls came today and all the pretty tile for the shower and floor.  I am hoping that part will be done by end of next week.

All caught up, now to go back to reading "Storm of Swords".

I was keeping busy with the remodeling of my master bathroom and biting nails with all the problems that kept coming up while tile and plaster board covered the now "tile less" floor.  I hope this project doesn't run over budget!!

Its only...witchcraft


Tube: "Steampunk2" by VeryMany  www.verymanytubes.com

Had to do a bit of database work and decided to reward myself with a glass of wine and finishing a new Halloween tag.  Now that I am relaxed, will be slipping off to neverland.  

Good night! 

Postscript:  This tag needs to be redone. I guess I was very tired and didn't pay close attention to where the text was placed...gah!! Still a learning process! Maggie 10/10/2016

Happy Birthday Ashley


This is for my daughter Ashley.  It was her birthday, October 5th. She is now 26 years old and has grown into a beautiful woman, inside and out. She has overcome struggles in her life, became stronger in mind and spirit.  She gives of herself, never asking for anything in return.

I know she misses her horse. One day I am sure she will find another horse to take his place. One thing she has always loved, is horses. She started riding with me when she was 2 years old and never stopped. I'll never forget almost having a heart attack when at 4 years old, she was loping on Dolly in the arena.  Fearless on the back of a horse...so proud of her raising her first colt.  I am positive it won't be her last.  

Love you Ashley! Hope you had a wonderful birthday!

Hugs and kissess....

Mommy

Night of Fright

Facebook timeline cover...a bit of spooky fun! The "scaredy cat" was the star in this scrap kit. I imagined him trying to crawl his way over the fence while various creatures appeared behind him.

Another work week begins!  I am hoping my daughter gets a rental car so there will be no driving challenges this week.  Crosses fingers and toes!

Hope everyone has a wonderful week! I am off to watch the new series on HBO called "WestWorld". I will let you know what I think of it tomorrow...if my eyes don't bother me. :)

Pumpkin Patch

Another Halloween Tag! This one was a bit harder to create as I wanted to play with a sparkle animation. For this particular tag I relied on a tutorial and frankly, I'm glad I did. Wasn't sure what to do about the animation package I bought, very little instructions are included.

I thought I had done such a great job in getting those ICD 10 codes into the system, but alas, one thing I didn't think about (shame on me for not remembering about billing), I set the date ahead and received a call from someone who was trying to enter charges. Overall, it wasn't a biggie, just wasn't thinking about all those encounters that don't get billed right away. At least on Monday morning, there will be no unwanted surprises.

It was a beautiful day here in southeast Arizona! I managed to get some things done I have put off during the week. Didn't get to the weeds, but I will tomorrow. Weather is cooling off here, time to get my mum's ready!

Time for some reading...Storm of Swords by George R,R, Martin. My second reading and having forgotten so much, I wanted to enjoy the replay. So much of the character interaction the show leaves out, but not complaining...I await with abated breath, the coming of winter.
