Aug.15 th blog prompt

todays blog prompt hosted by cherie shields at www.designsindigital.com is : "how does the internet impact your life good or bad?'
this is a great question...the internet has been a great impact on my life...i discovered digiscrapping at a time when i was very sick...i was dealing with the lost of a child...i suffered from very bad depression and still trying to fight it...ive met so many ladies that have been through the same lost and have seen their heartfelt layouts...they gave me the courage to also make a layout...it was very hard to make in the beggining but about half way through the layout it felt very good to get my feelings out..i love sitting down with old and new photos of my family...it just helps me remember the good times and that in itself is very healing...so everyday i am able to digiscrap it is very relaxing and healing..thanks for such a great question cherie...

Aug.14th blog prompt

todays blog prompt is hosted by cherie shields at www.designsindigital.com " what is your favorite holiday in your country and how would it make you feel if it was taken away?"
My favorite holiday would have to be Christmas...yes it is the most expensive part of our year...but it is worth it to get together with our loved ones...too see the joy on my childrens face when they wake up way to early christmas morning to see that santa has eatin the cookies that we baked for him and the milk set out for him...it is so cute to see their excited little faces when they read the note that was left for them thanking them for the cookies.. their eyes are big when they see all the presents he dropped off for them...then the famous question of how santa brought the presents into the house since we do not have a chimney...then we go into the he has magic and magic little helpers that help him...it is just a great thing to see my girls having so much fun and imagination...i couldnt imagine how it would make the family feel to loose this holiday...its a great part of the year to see everyone for one day to share so much love and joy...it would be sad not to have this to look forward to every year...thanks cherie this was a great question...

Aug. 13th blog prompt

todays blog prompt is hosted by cherie shields from www.designsindigital.com ..'What has been your favorite or least favorite job?"
wow on this one i will have to go way back to when i was 15 yrs old...my favorite job was when i was a score keeper...i would keep the score for baseball, basketball ,football and volley ball...it was usually just me in the booth watching and keeping track plus posting it on the board...i grew up an army brat so there arent many things to do on a military base in the middle of a desert...so this was a great thing to do with my time and it kept me out of trouble too..the military love their sports..they always have such a competitive nature but it was always a team spirit atmosphere...it was nice to be apart of that..that was my only job that let me keep my childhood and i didnt feel the pressures of a grown up world ...with grown up responsiblities...great question cherie:)...thanks

Aug. 12th blog prompt

todays blog prompt hosted by joy kuoha is " Digi scrapping is like _?
digiscrapping is like a breath of fresh air to me...it is the most relaxing moment of my days...i love how it makes me feel after creating a layout of my love ones...i digiscrap not because i have too or to impress others...i digiscrap because i truly care for my family and love showing them off the best that i can...i am able to have family members that are not able to see my daughters view them everytime they turn on their computer...this is what digiscrapping started out as and always will be for me...thanks...flora

blog prompt..your closest childhood friend-and what was she like?

Joy Kuoha from www.designsindigital.com has started a thread about our closest childhood friend-and what was she like?

I would have to say my closest friend would have to be Edlena Ellison...our fathers were stationed in germay..it was a hard move for me at 10 yrs old..leaving everyone and everything i knew behind state side...i didnt know anyone or how to speak the language...until i met edlena..she was german and african american...her mother was german and made sure she didnt loose her heritage...so edlena spoke german and that was great...we lived in the same town about a mile away from each other...we would walk back and forth to each others house..you couldnt seperate us if you tried...we did everything together..germany is a beautiful country to live in..we rode our bikes every where that was the main source of transportation...we would go to neighboring towns and look at the beautiful country side...our main thing to do together would be to go swimming...there are amazing amount of swimming pools and outdoor swimming pools that looked like a golf course...it was the most popular thing to do..we would go everyday we could...after swimming there was always a fest going on in our town or neighboring towns...thats where we would be...it was great her grandfather would come and visit and take us to the guesthouse is the english way to say it but it was more like a bar...her grandfather would order german beer for us and we thought that was so cool...it is not like the states...getting together eating and drinking was a daily thing in our town...so everyone could wind down from a hard days of work..the food was always so good..we did everything together...then my step father got orders to move again and i had to say good bye to my best friend...since they were in different fields in the miltary we didnt get staioned in the same place again...we wrote to each other often but then we just grew apart..how sad she was a great friend and i will never forget her...thanks for the great blog prompt joy it brought back great memories that i havent thought of for awhile...
