Just thoughts...

I went home yesterday and the night before last. It was kinda a surprise visit. So I am so excited to be moving back to San Marcos! Can't wait till I'm there.
I've been having these ODD symptoms lately. I feel so SICK, tired, and extremely weak. It's so strange. Not to mention I have been getting hives and bloodshot eyes. What is wrong with me? I want to FEEL better so I can go out and get a job/work out/etc.
While I was sitting in the old apt. waiting for Gabriel to get home and move everything I was doing some little drawing, then I colored them on photoshop.
I don't fell good. I'm gonna go lie down. see ya later!

Just a little something...

Thanks Kimberly for showing me this mosaic maker. Totally rocking right now.

Here's what I came up with SO far: ( i LOVE this machine!)

So tonight is a REALLY stressful night for me. We decided to move in with Gabriel's parents for many many reasons, mainly so I could quit my horrible job. And I'm not talking about I have a bad boss or anything like that. It was a BAD job. But I feel really confident after making my decision and so much self esteem has come back. And I know God will bless me for this choice. I just want to put that chapter behind me.
Anyhow. we moved in here but my poor kitty sunny:
has to live outside. To be honest it is TEARING me apart. I was sick before, but it is getting worse with all this stress. I hope she is still happy. I have been out there with her as MUCH as I can. I was out there with her tonight and she was actually playing with another cat. There are SO MANY strays here. I think it is safe to say I live in the ghetto. Our neighbors had a drive by on them and it's just NOT a good part of town. (It's not really a good town period.)
I'm kinda sorry I said that. I'm just stressed now. I am VERY thankful his parents are taking us in. They are SO KIND to us. I wish I could do/say more to help out around the house but it's kind of awkward because I am naturally SHY SHY SHY and also, his dad doesn't speak english.
I'll take some pictures of the house tomorrow and put them up. It's nice! And so sweet to think that his dad built it all for his family when he was around 21.
Well I hope to report with better news later.
Oh yea! I have to get a job. I am having this terrible habit of starting a job, not liking it, and LEAVING. BAD habit. Probably not tomorrow, but the next day I will go look for one and i VOW to keep it. Gabriel and I also decided to start running around the track. YES! I have not been to happy with my body lately. Honestly.......what do you think of breast implants?lol. ok not THAT big. But honestly I barely fill an A cup :-(
I guess it's not really an option seeing as how I don't have $6000. lol.
Well, typing it all out made my mood lift. Thanks blog.

Do you ever find it frustrating when...

there is too much inspiration out there?
Isn't is sometimes overwhelming?

The reason I bring this up, is because I stumbled across all these crazy awesome sites today. You can check them out in my "rockin' sites" section. I don't even remember how I came across them. But here are a few images that REALLY inspired me. And made me green with envy.

ok, Who's not going to pull out an old book and do this now? It's so crazy cause I doodle every day, but who ever thought of this genius idea? Would I wouldn't give to have been the creator of this awesome art:
And talk about awesome wall decorations. I'm totally making me some of these to decorate with.

I'm not so sure which site I got this from, bu isn't it great? How cool would it be to make a heart out of the tape coming out?


And maybe it's because we packed away all of our food and I haven't eaten in SOOO long, but this looks super yummy. Wow, how I would love to be the kind of woman who can bake like this.


More awesome wall art:


Anyway, there is just ENDLESS cool things out there for you to find. So much inspiration. It's hard to get a hold of it all!
Well hope this managed to inspire you some. Not overwhelm.
I gotta find SOMETHING to eat.

SO we're MOVING out :-)

Celebrate your life IN COLOR! color theory contest. Here were my finalist pages. What a shocker. Because I had never really scrapped before this! I am super excited that I can now show you all these.









Today we are moving......AGAIN.
I hate moving really really badly. Now we have to rent a U Haul AND storage. And I have to super clean this Apt. I only have 2 days. Yuck. The more I think about it, the more frustrated I seem to get.
Anyhow, I found this REALLY funny website the other night, where you can see what two people put together look like. Check it out here.
So this is what Gabriel and I would look like if we reproduced. YIKES! Maybe we'll hold off on that.I had fun all night with this program.

And for the news on Orange Milk Lab......
I am so excited for some BIG news! Bigger than I hoped for.
Only I can't say it now :-D
But I am SUPER excited.
For those of you waiting....I will show you a few more pieces of paper:

this one is called "air" it's from the elements collection

and this one is called scrambled eggs from the morning milk collection:
I hope you guys like! SOON they should be for sale. :-D I am SO excited :-D
Well, I better start moving. See you all later! -Bonnie

Update

So things are taking longer than I wanted to get going.
Boo. I have a LOT to figure out with social networking, etc.
Maybe I will just ope up my own online shop. I think that sounds easier.
But I got HUGE news today :-)
Ashley Wren (best scrapper ever!) Asked me to sponsor her class! :-) And in turn, she is going to link up my site. YES! How awesome is that? I have honestly been in love with her work since I first saw it. So I am beyond honored. I Will keep you guys posted with updates about Orange milk lab!

dear blog

So I announced it.
Orange Milk Lab is coming soon.
I can't tell you all the feelings I have right now!
I am excited, and scared, and HAPPY.
And anxious.


I want to show a few of my favorite papers with the world.
the first 3 are from my "elements" line



and the last 2 are from "morning milk"



I want to show MORE but I guess I will have to wait until I get my site up and running. (oh yea, its going to be www.orangemilklab.com btw.) Hopefully by the 21st? I'm saying the 25th because I am SOOOO not tech savy. But secretly I am hoping for the 21st. (Thats of March!)
There are so many places I want to go with this, but I guess I will have to wait and see what happens. Thank you everyone for all your support. I am so excited, and I cannot wait to get started.

it's coming.....

Something I have been wanting for a long long long long time.
In less than 2 weeks, it should all begin. And it can't come soon enough, because I have been up these past 5 nights preparing. Hopefully soon, I will be able to get some sleep.
