2. I looked online and DOLLYWOOD is really close to Ashville, NC!!!!! Dollywood here we come!!!!Kim is napping on the couch right now and does not know that I found this awesome information out! I just know he will be thrilled!

Stuff

1. It is Friday and the last day of the work week....yeaaahhh!

2. kim works this weekend which means I can focus on my 2 online photography classes!

3. Signed up for a 3rd photo class yesterday! Cori call ASAP!

4. Total classes I am taking is 4...love it! Especially b/c they are inexpensive yet FULL of useful information!

5. Found out that one of my students in going to ACAD next year. This makes me proud that I have had one student each year since I have been teaching in my tiny town go to ART school. I am pretty sure it was never an option before. They were stuck working with yarn and construction paper in grade 12....yes I am serious. That is what you get in rural communities that value sports and little else.

6. Missing Katie and I will call her this weekend.

7. I decided that I would rather blog this morning rather than shower so i need to go tie my hair back and get ready for work.

365 stuff

Kim is going to be home a little late b/c he is working so I decided to take some random 365 shots around here.

1. I went nuts on endamame beans about a year ago so much so I started to hate them. Had them the other day and I like them again. Although I pulled this freezer burnt bag out of the freezer.

2. Back into Dog food. Yes it is true. Those of you that know me know that I was totally against Dog food for a number of years. Well, I have opened my eye's to the new holistic/natural brands that are really well balanced and full of vitamins and minerals I just was not getting with my home cooked meals. I am a bad cook even for dogs!!!!!

3. The shot of the open can looks great hey!

4. Bathroom shot to show you that I am, always have been and always will be a product junkie! My friend Lauren and i have been into beauty products since we were about 11 years old. No joke.!!!!We would go over to each other's house and admire each other product collections. Actually when we babysat for people we would dive right into the mother products......and I mean dive. We would slather ourselves head to toe in whatever they had!!! Bad Girls!!!!!

It is funny b/c Lauren has kids now and will be needing baby-sitter's and I reminded her the other day what we used to do to people's products. Hope she does not hire girls like us!

That brings me to another Lauren baby sitting story.....we were both looking after her younger sister when we were like 14 years old and decided that her sister was fine sleeping on her own but that we for sure needed to take a little ride in her mom's T-bid! Yep, we left a little kid slepping and went joy-riding at 14 years old!!!!! NICE!!!!! Wow I went from a beauty product shot to something totally unrelated!!!!! How is my ADD?

5. A little glimpse into my 365 binder.

I want to go here!!!!

We are going to North Caroilina this summer and I want to go here1!!!!In fact I want to go everywhere in NC. The problem is I know nothing about NC. Do you? If you do can you please please please leave a comment about where to go, what to see and what to do!!!!!!

Thanks!

  It has been a busy week and I have been out of touch:

-Art show Wednesday night

-Came home from show and found out that 2 of my dogs were out roaming the neighbourhood in -44 weather. A wonderful neighbour rescued them! Our front door flew open and no one was home. It will not latch b/c it is soooo cold and we cannot lock it!!!!!

-Art show was wonderful!

-Friday night out for diner and drinks

-Saturday I had my hair done, took Grandma out for her 90th and out to a movie

-Sunday doing a little online photo class and putting up our 2nd art show at MYSTIC JAVA.
