Today was so much fun, Ellie invited me to go to lunch with a bunch of the Trilogy ladies, and I have not seen some of them in a while.  We went to the Deli of course…yum!!! They had the steak sandwich as the special, it is so good!!! So here is a shout out to: Ellie, Penny, Faye, Laura, Maureen D, Dorothy, Maureen Y & Ruth. It was fun girls, thanks for the invite!! But please next time, do not make me eat the carrot cake, my arm is still sore from you twisting it!! Ha!

I wanted to show the card my Demonstrators got if they were in the Top Ten in sales for the month of February.  It uses stuff from the new Summer Smooches special that starts in April. I saw a cute card by Heather Summers (hey girlfriend) and I liked how she colored the flowers.

So American Idol, here's my two cents…or whatever it's worth…spoiler alert!!!

Next season the show will be renamed to The Jennifer Lopez show…for pete's sake the first five minutes was about her on a magazine, and her new video coming out and wait we have to break for a commercial, oh and here she is selling clothes at Kohl's, what? where is the car commercial? oh they replaced it with a Qviva commercial.  She is beautiful, but it's just all up in our face. I think we need an Ulta commercial for nail polish featuring Steven Tyler, how does he get that black stripe down the center so perfectly?…and a Lens Crafters commercial with Randy selling wild eyeglass frames, and then Crest teeth whitening for Ryan…ha!

So Jeff noticed the group did not sing their group song this week and we wondered if it was cause of Jermaine getting kicked off, cause maybe they practiced with him.  He was in the haunted house video for the car though.

So we did not know who the girl was singing, the Demi girl, but Jeff said "do you think those are extensions?"  I just laughed that he knew what that was. I told him I was going to get extensions so I could flip my hair all over the place.  When Daughtery sang I think his mike stand was way too high and it hid his face, thank goodness he finally took the mike off.

I was surprised with the bottom three, I had Shannon right but was amazed that HeeJun was not there.  He is hilarious but not a strong singer, I hope he gets better.  I do think that out of the bottom three Elise, Erika (OMG who votes people?????) and Shannon…that Shannon was the one to go home and I am glad they didn't use their one save to save her.

So I wanted to show you the little critter that has made a home on the top of Jeff's bird house.  Remember Jeff and our neighbor Jim had a bird house contest a few years ago and my class ladies picked the winner? Well Jeff put his house outside (Jim's is on a pedestal in his house).  There are birds nests inside it and this year a dove has made a nest on top of it. At least the nest is secure pretty much. Although we are supposed to have a bad storm this weekend.

It has been getting lost of weathering happening to it. Bits and pieces have fallen off, like pretty much most of the "lawn" decorations.

See the dove on there? She blends right in with the roof.

So tonight I went out to see if there were any eggs, and she flew off as I walked up to it, and looks what was in there.

006 copy
A little rabbit!  OK not really, made you look closer though didn't I?  Its a litte dove.  I used my zoom and it is high so I took as good a picture as I could without touching the house.  She flew back on there when I left, so I really hope they will be ok this weekend.

So remember Jeff was making a quail coop?

003 copy
Well it's almost all done.

I was all set with my name for them, they were gonna be called The Chicklets, but now he has changed his mind and he is going to get Chukars instead, so they will be called The Chuklets, not as cute but oh well, like they will care right?

So are you saying what the heck is a Chukar? I know I did.  Well they are a type of partridge, and Jeff said a bigger bird and better eating.

Chukar

 Look how cute they are, they have very neat markings, it's like they have a mask on or something, I told Jeff I don't know if I will be able to eat them cause they look so cute, and what if they are all friendly and sweet?  He has 50 of them ordered, and they get here in May. I told him if they peck me when I collect their eggs maybe then I can eat them, but if they are all tweet tweet sweet, I just don't know.

Speaking of cute and animals, check this out…

 

I love how she was bringing stuff to the cat.

Well this old gal has to get some sleep.

Have an awesome Friday and thanks for stopping in.

A signature white 5

    That was adorable – except for the first swipe the cat took at her, it was a pretty patient cat – when she was shoving the spoon in it's face and the dishes. It was cute when she was trying to hug it and kiss it.
    Luv ya

    Hi Di, Thanks for promoting Erika, she is a RI gal who sang in our local Community Chorus (very well known chorus) I don't know how she ended up in the bottom 3 instead of Heyjun or the curly head guy Deandre? I thought his song was boring. Wasn't Stevie T. grumpy Wed night? Maybe he is upset with all the promos for Jennifer.
    Love reading your comments about the show.

Hi, my name is Diana Gibbs and I have been a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator since 1999. I never imagined getting up and talking to people, I am deaf (I wear hearing aids) so talking to strangers has never been a fun thing for me. But put a rubber stamp in my hand and I will talk to anyone.

I hope you can find inspiration and learn new and exciting things while you are here. If there is ever anything you want me to teach you, just let me know!
