Ok....tomorrow's the big day.  I start my new job.  Not giddy or excited....just plain nervous.  I'm sure everything will be fine....I guess it's just after being at the same company for almost 11 years....this is a big change.  Definitely a good one though.

So....Chelsea is planning something to help celebrate.  Not sure exactly has she has practically banned me from most of the house.  Last night she tried to make cookies that spelled out "GOOD LUCK MOM!"  But they were so big that when they spread....it was just one big cookie sheet-sized cookie.  Aww....poor thing.  She was pretty upset about that.  She got up early this morning to make me breakfast....however I didn't know...and I was up and had breakfast about an hour before she was up.  I know she baked something else today and she's cooking up dinner right now.  She's carrying the excitement for everyone right now! LOL!!

I've brought out my clay again.  Figured it was time.  Was planning on making a fairy....but sometimes the clay has a mind of it's own...and it ended up being an elf.  I've made some head before....this is the first one that's actually got a body!!  Will try to make a dragon next...but not sure what it will end up actually being!

 



 

CUTE KID!!!! :) hello! blog hopping :)

She is so sweet, to think I once kidnapped her dad!
How is your own dear sweet girl? [I also have teen girls]

I can hardly wait to hear what a nifty celebration that Chelsae gave you. I know it must've been filled with fun and lots of laughter. Chelsea seems like such a delight to be around. ~giggles~ Fabulous!

Your elf is adorable. I love the way you made her clothes and her hair. I like the way you made her feet and hands, they're really good & whimsical. Your little people have such wonderful expressions. You have a gift of talent for sculpting. I will say one thing, you hit the nail on the head with saying the clay has a mind of it's own. I never know what my characters will look like. lol

Aw, Alice is too cute and too sweet for words. She makes me want to reach in your picture and give her a hug. She has fabulous big eyes, so bright and shining. She's very photogenic too. The camera seems to love her. That's not always easy with babies. Thanks for sharing her pictures with us.

I wish you the best with your new job. My positive thoughts are with you for a super year of happiness.

Sounds definitely like 2008 is off to an exciting start... very glad to hear that Chelsea's an energizing part of it! Good luck on the new job! Look forward to hearing good news about your first day...

I got this Sexy Comment from Commentsheaven.com!

Hey girl, how are you doing? I hope you & Chelsea are doing well. I hope the new job is working well for you too.

I spent all evening yesterday going through my old 2005 posts to post the history of my little green man. I always think of you when I'm tinkering with anything related to sculpting. Anyway, I got his picture history of posts on my journal now, if you want to come and take a gander at him.

I wanted to come by and wish you a warm and terrific Tuesday!

Good morning, Tonia. I'm coming by to give you a little heads-up about our friend Lady Wolfen Mists. Today is her birthday! Do you think you could drop by and leave some birthday wishes for her? I bet she would just love that...

Hi Tonia. I'm visiting all the people on the Friends list of our friend Kelly, asking you to please visit her. She wrote a post that has given cause for some concern, and she really needs to know she's not alone. If you could please find a minute to drop by her blog and let her know she's not alone, I think that would make a big difference to her.

Thanks in advance...

Just out spreading some Love!

Hope your Valentine's Day is warm & wonderful!

Hello friend,
I sure hope your having a better time of it than me right now.I miss hearing from you, and wish you were on more, or at least emailed me once in a while, i suppose i should email you to get the ball rolling...Im just not very good at writting the initial email..Lame I know. Love to you and Yours-BLU

LOVE YOUR FAIRY YOU MADE!!!!!! Good luck with the job too!!!! Sorry I havn't been around much!!!

Hi Tonia. I'm visiting the people on Dezert Blu's friends list to ask that you please visit her journal. Her dad (father-in-law, I believe) died today and she needs her friends around her. Thanks.

While I have a few extra minutes I decided to do my Monday fly-by to say Hi!

Runs in a gives Tonya a big HUG! Oh my gosh! I Miss You! Thanks so much for leaving me such a happy comment. I'm glad you like my leprechaun. He's not near as charming and whimsical as your wee folks, I can't seen to capture the enchantment of the clay that you do... but I keep trying. I do love your characters.

I hope you're having a wonderful year and you & your family are well.
Take care, my friend!
Here's wishing you a beautiful week!

Aw Thanks so very much Tonia! It always makes me happy to hear from you. I hope that you & your family are well and you will start blogging again soon. I miss reading your interesting and fun posts and seeing your lovely & sweet pictures.

Wishing you all the best always!
