This is the shirt I just made, the speckles in the SA in Sailor, are gems, like stars on a flag. The speckles in the gold anchor are gems as well, my camera just sucks:)
The front wasn't dry so i havent done the back yet. I just thought it turned out pretty well:)
P.S iris- as dona said, she really hopes it doesn't happen again, as do i...but if the boy hasn't learned the first time looks like everyone is catching the first flight to hawaii, cause we're gonna kick his a**.........but you didn't hear it from me:)
hahah.
Aj - yes Fred cheated on Haley a while back. He claimed so drunk didn't know what was going on. We all know better. Biology say's if he was that drunk, the equipment wouldn't of worked. But Haley is "in love" and even though she knows she's being stupid, wants to continue seeing him. Sigh! So now I am having difficulty being sincere with this guy cause I know what a load of crap that was. But Haley wants me to like him so much, so I'm trying. Really need to work on my acting for her. I'm skyping with him Tuesday in hopes that I can find something to focus on other than him being a big ole cheater. I'll keep you posted.
Okay - so what have you all heard from your sailors? Donna - How's your daughter? She get past the equator yet? I think that is such a cool thing. 120 of cranking, ugh! Glad it's not all on ship. From AJ's description that is got to be the worst job on ship. Can't wait to hear when she's scheduling her leave. Love the fact that she's planning it so she can spend a good amount of time with you guys. Hope it's soon. =)
Well, not much is happening here. Practice tonight, Yahooo!! I'm trying out Rolla Billie (like Rockabilly) for a name. There is also Frankie Stein (all my surgeries and scars kind of make this appropriate), but someone else has it. Only it appears there team doesn't exist anymore. I have to ask how you go about contacting someone. So the name game goes on. Lol... who knows if I'll ever find something I like enough to stick with. Keep sending me your ideas. =)
Better get at it. Hugs to you all. Hope you are enjoying your summer so far. RSL!!!
FRIDAY. FRIDAY. FRIDAY. FRIDAY. FRIDAY. WAAHOOOOOOOO. IT'S FRIDAY, IT'S FRIDAY, WAHOOOOOOOO! :) ...no, i'm defintely not excited(;

Morning Ladies...
Mary - Nailed it! I'm penis free and those who sports those bad boy appendages don't seem to hear me either. You have to ask them for EVERY little detail. They do not volunteer information. To them it's unimportant and not worth mentioning even when it's just basic "where you going, who will you be with, how long will you be?" stuff. So Nicole, Kristy - just start asking everything you want to know and realize you aren't really prying or being nosy, it's just that they won't tell you unless you ask.Oh and they don't take hints either. Just tell them what you want. More subtle but not always effective ways are to make list of the things you like/want and leave them around so they can find them.
So Mary - "get that chap stick ready" took me down a whole different road than what you intended. Oh that dirty derby mind of mine. Lol....
AJ - I need to go over to the other site and get caught up with all you have been up to. I kind of like here better just due to the conversation stays in order. On FB it stays with the original and we change topic so much I think idea's and conversations sort of overlap. Anyhow, I need to do that soon. Today is kind of an overcast day so we will see how motivated I get. Lawn needs mowing something fierce and I need to figure out if I'm going to turn sprinklers on or let the whole thing dry up this year.
Nicole - Holy Crap Batman, it's this week!? Ahhhhhh.... eeeeeekkkkkk.....squeeeeelllllllll...... Happy dance. You are going to have so much fun. Get those great pics so we can share in this great time with you. Hugs and safe travels.
Okay... must hit enter and go back and read. So that's the stinky thing about this site is it doesn't hold you conversation when you change pages. Oh well....
