Craft Attitude Giveaway Winner JaderbombPhoto Courtesy of:   K bost

Congrats! I am super stoked about announcing the winner of the Craft Attitude giveaway.

Glenda I hope you are jumping for joy! You are the WINNER.
(Please check your email, I don’t have your last name)

I always love entering giveaway’s. Do you ever enter and as you are putting all of your information in you tell yourself  “you are totally not winning this, look how many entries are already in”… I try not to do that but I do. Booo! It just feels like that lottery ticket that you buy, right. For a split minute you can feel the feeling you “would” feel if you actually won then that little thing called reality sets in. How can you overcome this?

Well when you “FEEL” that feeling of winning you have to keep it alive. Every second you think you have no chances of winning you immediately change your thought process and go back to that feeling of winning. It’s better for you anyway! 

I think what it comes down to is always thinking Positive.  Sometimes it’s hard to stay positive when we have so much to worry about. Let’s face it, there will always be something to bring us down. It’s just how things roll.  Things used to bring me down years ago and I would let them just eat at my soul. You know how that works right! Something pops up out of nowhere and BOOM, instant depression. I am pretty sure when you let something negative live in you for too long you can get a small case of the “hates”. We don’t want that!  How did I overcome all of this? I just changed my thought process. I try my best to not look at anything as negative or “meant” to happen. If something pops up in my life like a bag of burnt popcorn I just throw the burnt pieces out and eat the ones that are good! It’s that simple.

I know, I know you are wondering if I ever let anything get to me. The answer is of course I do. I am human y’all! It’s actually good to feel bad every now and then but only for a few seconds.

Is your bag of popcorn all burnt? Wanna learn how to bring that butter corn puffs back to life and see rainbows in your dreams? Check out the SECRET website. This should help you for sure!  I play this game every single day and you should too! I hope I made you smile a litte today. See you in the next post!

What do you do when negative things pop up in your life?

So. Let’s face it. We all tend to do things out of habit sometimes. Or, ALL of the time. I have come to accept one amazing quality about myself. I always poke my lips out when I see a camera! I am not that worried about what others think about my “Angenlina Jolie” lips because I have fun making this face. It’s sorta part of my personality. Don’t worry. I do smile sometimes.. hahahah

My point of this “Face it Friday”… Don’t ever change anything about yourself! Walk the way you walk, talk the way you talk and make your DUCK FACES!

{{ fist pumping}}

Don’t you just love besties at the bottom laughing at me! This is the BEST picture! My store looks great, right!!! hahaha

 

 

See. I finally smile and Ashy does the DUCK! #priceless

I hope you have a GREAT weekend Jaderbugs!

HOW YOU SHOULDN’T BE IN A CAR!!!!

HOW YOU SHOULD BE IN A CAR!!!

Happy “FACE IT FRIDAY”!  Today I wanted to share with you a topic that hits home with me. ROAD RAGE. Yes. I would say I have some form of it. Just a mild version but it’s enough to make me WANT to get rid of it.

Lately I feel like everyone is always in a hurry. Don’t get me wrong, I realize they “really” are in a hurry but there is a point in life where you just have to BREATHE and relax. I always get the worst drivers in front of me, back of me, on the side of me or three cars ahead of me. I get SOOO mad when someone is going SOOO slow in front of me and I can’t pass them.

When I run across moments like this I have to tell myself to breathe.

BREATHE

You never know what kind of day that person is having. Maybe someone just passed away, maybe their cat or dog just died, they may have gotten into a big fight with someone or they may have lost their job. I could keep listing things for the next hour but you get the point. The point is it’s easier to get into a HAPPY place than to let another person’s actions CONTROL how our day will play out.

So the next time you feel the urge to make the face I am making in the picture above do this:

1.  Turn the radio off
2. Think about the first happy though in your mind and smile
3. Say a prayer for the person “AGGRAVATING” you
4. Say 10 things out loud that you are thankful for

Face it, whatever energy you are throwing around out there will come right back to ya so stop with the negative-ness!

Oh and texting, eating, recording a video and crafting isn’t good to do while in your car either (((heheheh)))

Wishing I was back in NYC with my best friend daddy-o, in a CRAZY cab! ( I think I am sick just thinking about it)

Wanna see my dad’s first ride in a NYC cab!

I KNOW MY HAND TOTALLY LOOKS LIKE IT’S NOT A PART OF MY BODY, BUT IT IS 🙂 AND YES HE IS ON HIS PHONE… WITH WHO… WHOOOOOOO KNOWSSSSSS

In”FACE” you are interested, I am starting something new on my blog. Well, it’s really not “new” it’s just something for my Jaderbug’s to look forward to!

Every FRIDAY I will make it a “Face It Friday” day. Let’s FACE IT! WE all need to know things that could make us happier, improve our outlook on life, feel all warm and mushy inside and just make us a better person in general. That is my goal! Some days I will have information that comes strait from the good ole “noggin” but other days (((like today))) I will find things that catch my attention and share them with you. That is, because part of me might think you NEED to know! Wadduyuh say!

Plus, it’s always better to “FACE” the music, or “Face” forward…or have a “FACE” off!

Ingredients:
love.

I ran across this blog the other day. It’s called, PURPOSEFAIRY.COM. I really felt the need to share some information they wrote up on their last blog post! Plus I think they did something awesome.

Sending you big hugs from my computer to yours,

 

Failure, it’s the most important thing!

So many people tell us our entire life that we are not GOOD enough. We should change our goals or just go away. There will be times you hit the bottom and wonder what’s your purpose.

I just want you to know it get’s better. I ran across this video and HAD to share it. I know it’s not my “typical” craft  tutorial but it touched my heart.

So many people did not think I would do the things I am doing or go the places I am going. BUT I KNEW I WOULD. I attract only good into my life and heart.

If you follow your heart you can’t FAIL.

Just remember, if someone makes you feel low or down about yourself, know within your heart they are just ONE PERSON. That’s ONE person and ONE thought. Hold your head up and know WITHIN that this happened because GOD just has something a little better lined up….

I believe in YOU
