This layout sure doesn't show off this fantastic kit so i will certainly be playing with it some more, cause it is soooooo much FUN!! So many fun elements and the papers are WONDERFUL!! i truly appreciate Mrs. Miles generosity too, she does offer so many AWESOME freebies! if you visit her blog and scroll down you will find a BEAUTIFUL qp from this kit! (if Barb posts today, you might have to use 'Older posts' found at the bottom of her blog, but it IS there!! lol)
oh and i finished another book too! hehe it was a FUN book and easy to read. The book is called "Walking in Circles before Lying Down " by Merrill Markoe
here is a review:
Merrill Markoe has hit the nail on the head - the advice that the brilliant Chuck provides always rings true. You need to be willing to suspend your disbelief in order to enjoy this book, but if you're looking for a light and entertaining weekend read, this is the book for you.
And now i am reading two more! Two books from the same time period but vastly different. "Gracie, A Love Story" by George Burns and "The Holocaust" by Martin Gilbert. i absolutely LOVE the George Burns book, i can almost hear him saying what i am reading, it is that good! :D and FUNNY too!
i aslo picked up a book at the swapmeet, called Little Men by Alcott. i guess that is the same author that wrote Little Women (which i have yet to read as well)... i am not sure how good it will be but i couldn't resist a book i never heard of! lol
oh and here is a picture of my other hobby! It's getting to be quite an AWESOME little display, i think!
Well, thank you for your visit and now that my back is better i sure hope to get some freebies up soon again!! But for now, i am off to visit your blogs! Have a WONDERFUL day!! HUGS! :D

first of all, Shirley, THANK YOU for the lovely lovely AWESOME blinkie - I promise to post it as soon as possible. I've just taking time away as my in-laws have just left for home... a happy/sad time for me. I am always a bit out of it for the days after. I can't tell you how much I love the new blinkie and I wish I could give you a BIG SQUEEZE.
Thank you for blogging my new kit too - you've done a fabulaous job with your layout. Perfect photo for it too! We are having an indian summer here and the weather is GLORIOUS - I'm hoping to get out in it for a walk today.
The books sound interesting - just need time to read them haha!
I've read little women and little men - boy that takes me back to my childhood! You will love it.
Very cool hobby, my friend, and I love the way you've displayed it!
I hate to comment and run, but I must as I have jam cooking on the stovetop. Muah x 100 to YOU. I promise to come for a good long visit sometime when things slow down a bit!
Love,
Barb
