Welcome

Just a few rambling thoughts and crafts from a mind that is full of both. I am talented in my mind but regularly run full throttle into the wall of procrastination. I have raised procrastination to an art form. A friend once told me I have a BS in BS and a minor in excuse making. If there is anyway to get out of doing my best, I will do my best to get out of it. Welcome to my saburban life. : ).. Lol.

Cha Cha Cha Changes..

 What can happen in a year? Lots and lots and lots of things.

The Chiefs missed the playoffs for the first time in our Patrick Mahomes era.

Travis and Taylor are engaged and trying to confuse the public as to when and where they are having their wedding. I still think it will be on July 13th. Just MHO. Best wishes regardless and I hope that they can have a peaceful, fun and amazing wedding! 

The Chiefs are already starting OTA's and training for this next season. Should be interesting! We have Eric Bienemy back (Halleluja!!) and we said good bye to Matt Nagy again (Thank God!!!). Safe to say, I think we stand a great chance to be on top again this year. Eric is AWESOME. Matt? Umm. No. Not awesome at all. Awesome from a distance! Like another team's version of distance!! Buh bye! Cya! Welcome back to Eric AND L'Jarius Sneed as well! Yay! Now if Patrick's ACL and NCL (?) tears hold out, we should be in good shape!

FIFA.. FIFA is in full swing in Kansas City and several other towns around the US. We have Argentina and Messi holding fort in the KC area (AWESOME!) and already had Messi get a Hat Trick on his first FIFA game at Arrowhead Stadium! I missed seeing the first one on tv and then fell asleep and missed the next two. Lol. Should be a great tournament though!

Speaking of the Chiefs and Arrowhead. And the Royals and Kauffman Stadium. The Royals are "officially" moving downtown to the Westport area. Holy Cannoli! Can we say, No Parking down there? Can we say traffic nightmares? Can we say, Oh Well, Shoulda Stayed Put. #KauffmanIsBetter. #TaxesAreHighEnoughAndFansAlreadyPayALotForTheTeam #SoonToBeTheSameWithTheChiefs going to the Kansas side of Kansas City. Should be interesting to see how many Chiefs Kingdom fans follow the Yellow Brick Road to the new spot. 

And finally. We are "empty nesters". After having three cats since 1998 and then three dogs, we lost our last furbaby last month. We lost our cats, each one crossing the rainbow bridge at the age of 16. Then we lost our Auntie Em a day after her ninth birthday and Sir Fergus Ozborn MacDougall last July. My "bestie" with four legs that didn't speak a lick of English finally crossed the rainbow bridge around the middle of May. He was a great little buddy, full of love and sweetness, fun and orneriness, he was always the highlight of our day. He got so excited for car rides, the puppy store, puppy cookies (Alpo Snaps until they stopped making them), and coming back to my craft room to tell me when dinner was ready. He would bounce and pounce and snort, letting me know it was time to get to the dinner table. He is missed. It's soooo quiet in the house now. The day after we lost him, I was driving a client to work, when the song on the radio was a Graham Barham song talking about his "heart", when all of a sudden, there were three different buildings with hearts on them in one area, two on one side and another one right across the street. Since then, I've found an extraordinary amount of hearts, usually at least one per day. He has this "sign" down pat! My sweet little boy would always reach out and touch me with his nose when we walked by him to remind us that he was here, patiently waiting for attention. The hearts are his way of nose bumping me now. Love ya Milo McCormack! My little bestie!

Doing crafts. Got a Vendor Fair coming at the end of the month and it's getting closer and closer and closer. Do I have anything done yet? Pffffbbbbttttt! Nope. Nothing. Getting there but it's more craft meh / fail still and a learning curve. Trying something different. Wish me luck!! I think I have it figured out!! : ).. Catch ya in another year!
