Creative letter

Creative Letters

So am trying to be a little creative when sending out my pen pal letters.  When I am at work and have a few extra minutes I will grab some sheets of computer paper.  We all know how boring white computer paper starts off looking.  So I try to add some washi tape and cute stickers to jazz the letter up a bit. 


 
I am sending this to a new pen pal.  Sure hope she likes the attempt that I put into her letter. 
Writing snail mail has always been a passion of mine.  I probably started with pen pals in middle school.  I've done it off and on for probably 30 years.  Just seeing a envelope in the mailbox from a friend makes my day so much brighter. 
This letter is awesome! I took it from Pinterest.  She did a awesome job on this letter!!
I would love to be able to use different fonts in my writing.  Which means I would have to practice my handwriting.  Some days I don't feel like I have the time or energy for another creative outlet.
When you write letters do you try to make them more creative?
Outgoing Mail
I really like the bright colorful envelopes that catch your eye.  Using last year calendars is a cheap and fun way to add color to your our going mail.

Tuesday downer

Warning: do not read if you have a sensitive stomach!!!

This morning I get a phone call at 8:30 am from Ms. Shirley asking me to come give her a enema.  OH MY GOD! I have never done this and it was never on my mind to do so EVER!  I am about to throw up in my mouth.  I have made it to be 50 years old with out doing this...I'm not looking forward to this at all.  I do believe I am being punished for all my bad choices growing up. 

I go to Marlow Medicine to pick up enema  and get directions.   It took less than 5 minutes to get it done.  It wasn't hard just the ick factor of doing it.  Before I go on any further YES I wore gloves!  There is no way that I could have gone in that region without gloves.   This is so out of my comfort zone it isn't funny. Once I get to  flower shop  Mildred tells me that I have to call ATT and DEMAND they get a technician out here sooner.  I am like this is not who I am and I do not demand things from others.  Which they know isn't who I am that's not my personality at all.  For one I know who ever I am talking to is just a employee and don't have magical powers to do whatever they want.  Plus I try to live by the motto  do to others as you want them to do to you.  As my moma always said you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar. 

Honestly I can't take much more negativity in my face today.  I feel like I'm inches from going over the edge today.  The next step will be going into full fledge depression.  I know me well enough that much more SHIT today I'm going to scream. 

Sure hope everyone else is having a better day than me!!!

Wesley and me
A rare one of Wesley letting me hold him for a fast picture!

Angel and Wesley found the "Rpck On Marlow" rock!! Aaron wouldn't let them keep it.  Makes me want to paint some rocks and place around town!!  What a cool ideal.

True independence and freedom can only exist in doing what's right.

I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful 4th of July! Tuesday I am off work at the flower shop and I am so excited! I need a free day to do whatever I want!  Which means I will make some fried chicken, potato salad, a pie and cut up some watermelon.  Yummy! 
Around 5 I will do to Ms. Shirley's and get ready for friends and family to show up to watch the fireworks at dusk.

Love this 4th of July picture of Logan! He is so darn cute!!

Rock on Oklahoma



Found our first painted rock!!


Angel and Wesley

Angel and Wesley 

We were on our way to Pix Gal Photography Studio when we found our first painted rock here in Marlow Oklahoma.  Aaron wouldn't let the kiddo's take the rock and rehide it.  So I snapped a photo and we put the rock back in the same spot.  I have seen several painted rocks on the local Facebook page but I do believe this rock is the cutest one ever! 
I think I should buy some cheap paint and find some rocks and paint a few for them to hide.  I think that would be a fun weekend project for us. 
ROCK ON MARLOW seems to be growing by leaps and bounds.
