Wow! I Need to Work in My "New" Journal

This is a pic I found this morning of a 1938 Grey Hound Bus. Very cool!! Don't know the manufacturer but it is cool anyway.

This is what I have figured out this morning........When my new job slows down a little, and I get back into the thick of journaling.........drum roll.........It will all be new to me again!!!! Yeaaaaaa!!!!! Just like someone starting out. This is a good thing. I just won't need to buy a gazillion art supplies, cause I have a gazillion already.

My new job makes me happy and it puts me exactly where I want to be, helping other Safety Managers get it right. Unfortunately, I get pulled into current issues when I visit sometimes, but that's OK. I can actually look at those with fresh eyes and mind and without any prejudices cause I don't know all of the players like I did in my own division.

Anyway, this morning I am heading out to a Safety Seminar to assist with getting all of the Safety Managers that attend on the SAME page!!! That's a good thing!

And today my Baby is 34 years old. Happy BD, Little Man!! Psst, he's 6'4"!! HA! But he will always be MY little man!!

No I Haven't Forgotten

I knew when I began my new job, that it would be a challenge to keep up with my blog. I so still want to blog, and will just have to make myself do it. I wanted this to be a place I could post my "tryings" in my journal and not just writing, but it seems that to keep this up, a lot of it will be my thoughts and findings in words, not so much in pictures. *sigh*

I was gone 3 weeks to Anaheim, very close to "The Happiest Place on Earth" for a contract start up, and worked crazy hours, always on very little sleep. Came home this last Thursday afternoon, worked in my old office all day Friday, took yesterday to get ready to fly this morning to Iowa to our Corporate office for a week. So you can see why I have been out of touch.

I am still stalking you, not just as often. I have had such "Sucked" Internet service while away from home, it was either very very slow, or non exsistant or I had to use my Blackberry for a modem and that was slow, but that's OK cause you are still out there journaling away for me and I love it and when I get home I know that I can catch up on what I missed while out of touch.

Daddy's 91st

Well another year and another BD for my Dad. 91 years old. WOW!! See the $$ he is holding? 91 one dollar bills this year, for slots of course.

If you look back a few posts, you will see his 90th BD pics, and the difference in how he looks from last year to this one, quite a bit more aged, woulld be better if his hair was combed, HA! The guy with him is my brother from DC.

Well, I am a traveling Area Safety Director now. My new job began July 1st and I have been a few places in just 2 weeks and Monday I am headed for Anaheim for a start up for Disneyland Hotel Shuttles, till the end of the month. Should not be boring, as start ups are always nuts. Usually too many chiefs and not enough indians;-). So now I have tomorrow to get ready to be away from home for at least 3 weeks. I will need two suitcases. At least I am driving because it is only 5 hours, so I can take alot of stuff. Room must be either on the ground floor or they must have elevators, HA!

I am taking my journal and will try to get in some journaling, I hope. I will post some pics of it soon. Will be back later, and don't forget me, please. I am still blog stalking, believe me. That is what keeps me sane.

Work Cuts Into my Playtime

Hey folks, I am still here, but the new job has knocked the wind out of my sails and I haven't been posting much. I will be at home for a few days gearing up for my Dad's 91st BD this weekend, so I will post some pics and some more great things that have been going on. I just wanted to holla and let ya know I'm still here and going strong. Have a great week.

More Journal Time

Hey folks, I have been away for awhile working, working to get my replacement person up to par so I can get on the road with my new job. And I have actually been working in my journal quite a bit lately, to relieve stress I believe.
Anyway, The two poloroid looking pics are from my new Fuji Instant I showed you on my last post. My hubby and my two cats wanting outside. The camera takes good shots and fun since you can get them Right Now!! Quite an amusement for young folks who have never seen a poloroid camera. Hee Hee!!


These other pics are some journal pages I have been working on lately. I actually feel waaay more comfortable now than before I took Teesha Moore's class.

I will be with my dad tomorrow and listen to him talk about those 91 one dollar bills I will be handing him next month on his 91st BD.

Hope everyone has a great Father's Day tomorrow, especially the Dad's.

What I Have Acquired Lately

Ok, this is a little bit of what I have been up to.

These Peerless Watercolor Sheets I saw when I was at Teesha's class. Tracy showed them to me. I was amazed at how much color they hold. I Googled them and found a place http://www.peerlesscolor.com/products.htm that sold them, with shipping, $18.00. I think there is 15 pages, about the size of a checkbook. They will last for years!!

Next up is a large set of colored pencils in this case for $5.00 at the weekend fleamarket I try to go to every weekend when it is not too hot. They are old but oh well. Great for getting down and crazy in my journal.

And last but not least, this totally cool camera. A Fuji Instant 7s camera, I found mentioned on a blog that of course now I can't remember which one, but the pics are instant like the old Poloroids but smaller and I ordered it on Ebay and it came from Japan in about 6 days. Haven't used it yet, but will try this weekend.

I am posting this at Starbux so I could try to get online for free cuz I have a Goldcard and I get 2 hours of free internet everyday and lo and behold today it worked. Yippee!! "My name is Sharon and I am a Starbux freek". Hee Hee

Busy Busy

Hi folks, No I haven't forgotten you all. I have been major busy with work, like always. Just got home last night from a week in So Cal conducting an instructor's class. While I was gone I had two deliveries, yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. I will post pics this weekend and show off a little. Have a great artful weekeend.
