They must be pretty prouod of themselves. ive been watching some making of stuff and apparently they have #3 in the works an possibly a new show. Thatll be cool. Well, i have been doing some scraping. Im still scraping our trip to Winslow farms.

NZ Dare Again



So another week and another challenge from my Fav NZ girls...okay the only NZ People I know of except for melanie Lynsky lol...This challenge was to scrap boy/man pages with flowers. I wasnt going to do this one because I am single and Childless. I do enough of my brother and my dad so I didnt want to do that again. Then as I finished the Jackass Box set in a day (Im crazy) I was thinking how cool all those guys are...Even the skanky ones lol. Then I got the idea why not scrap a page about two of my fav members. One from each troop....and the hottest ones. I chose Johnny Knoxville from the LA gang and of course Bam Margera from the PA Gang. I knew the flower part wouldnt be hard. I chose some brown and pink flowery paper and put 15 additional flowers scattered around the page, Mostly Jolee's by you./ The title reads "I love it when a man acts like a JACKASS" I inked it with gold and black ink. The picture is kind of blurry. i tried photgraphng it 10 times and couldnt capture the page for what its worth. i think this is my fav layout I've ever done in my 5 years of scrapping.

Jackass 2


I saw Jackass 2 last night and it was fucking hillarious. Everyone needs to go see it. just dont have a full stomach when you go see it.
I literally almost vomitted. When Steve-O and Bam vomit I want to lso lol I might take maritza to go see it. I want to see it again. I cannot wait for it to come out on DVD lol. After work I went to Salem and bought some fucking kick ass earrings. They are off Skulls, handcuffs, and saftey pins. You cansee the saftey pins in that pic. I also got that cool headband you see. I was in a CKY type of mood. I went to bullmoose and bought the jackass box set for $30 brand new. Im watching it right now and its fucking hillarious. Daddy and baby skits are great.

Boston is weird






Man, I need to tell y'all about the adventure Andrea and I had today lol. We almost got the shit kicked out of us twice, but it was hillarious. Well we went into Boston, mainly China Town and Fanuel Hall. We were walking down the street when this teenager flung open the DMV door right into us. Here's the dialog:
Girl: Watch where youre fucking going, bitch.
Andrea: Are you serious?
G: Open your eyes, Bitch.
A: Are you serious?
I was cracking up, not defending her. The girls friends were telling her to come on. They were clearly embaressed. We crossed the street and into CVS. It was awesome. The girl looked like she was 12. Well, we walk around for like 3 hours, shopping and taking pictures. We were near Macys and you know how all those people have their carts of merchandise? Well, this one guy picked his open and came an inch (literally) from seriously running me over. Dialog.
Me: Stop fucking running people over.
Guy: Im going to follow you home, D-Block.
Me: Shut the fuck up, Douche Bag.
He said something else, but Andrea and I were laughing too hard and too far away to hear what he was saying. We have no idea what D-block means. Pretty stupid comeback.We're a bunch of bitches. Anyway, we got incredibly lost because we parked in China Town and I only know my aroun don the trains. We finally Found the car and drove home. Well, on 93 near Cambridge it was wall to wall traffic so andrea and I were scream singing out the windows entertaining people. I was playing the Air violin and making people laugh. Then this dude in a green truck (See pic) came up aside us and held up a sign that read "WOW", we began cracking up and he held up another sign that said "Yes, you are sexy" which made us laugh harder. Then he wanted us to flash him. It made us laugh even more (we didnt of course). We finally was able to drive away. Then we turned on 495 (30 minutes later) and the dude pulled up aside us again, We refused to look at him, bu were cracking up. then another 20 minutes later, we take the haverhill exit and the dude drives by and waved. How frigging weird we were going almst the same way. It was interesting. Anyway, to the pics. Those first two, white buildings, were taking while we were driving. thank god for the motion setting on my camera. then that Glass building near the old towne hall looked cool so i took it. then we stopped in the paramount and it was so gorgeous and took pictures. I amvery tired after our fun day.

Before work today Andrea and I did a small photoshoot. She is in a photography class so She had to do it, but it was really cool. We went to this small garden like that is 5 minutes away, There were tons of bees that were freaking us out, but it was still fun. I cant wait to see what Andrea did. Tomorrow we're going out again.
The first picture is of this creepy assed fountain that was there. It was scary. The second is of a lime. The 4th is the top of trees that looked like boobs to me lol

Another NZ Dare Layout


Well they posed another challenge. This time we had to use metal, A lot of metal or a little metal. it didnt matter. I had a hard time with this one because I dont like using metal on layouts if I can help it, so I used a lot of brads. When I finished, I found a tiny metal jar in ne of my drawers. So I used the metal lid for a frame of a tiny picture I had of Stacey and I. the I remembered I just bought some sticky thank yous from staples and since We were at Chili's I put metal "gracis" on the bottom. And for once I found a use for he bunch of birthday ribbon I have. The Layout came out better than I thought, but still not one of my favs. i won a lot of pretty designer paper on ebay last week so soon i'll have some nice variety in my patterned paper. Oh, the last picture f of the metal lid on my layout, so you can see the dimensions. I think I'm the only American that does their challenges, well at least one who submit. I like the NZ gals beause all the other challenges I do have to do with themes like "Time" or "When I was young..." or "Moms are...." but they use product and it is a good excuse for me to use some of the stuff I have laying around.

On the Parachutes are questions that will be answered in Season 3 such has what is the dharma initiative, will Michael and Walt make it to main land. the title which is on a cotton ball reads, Summer Hiatus Sucks. its all done on cloud paper. 28 days until LOST starts :) I'm going to buy the DVDs tomorrow and I might take Kiara with me.

Winslow Farms







We went to Winslow farms which is basically an animal rehibilitation place. They had a lot of animals like Sheep, goats, Birds, Horses, Donkies, and about 60 cats. It was so big and gorgeous there. The scenery was awesome. makes me want to move there. I took tons of pics but i obviously I cant post them all. Iing to be great scrapping this day but I have a whole months of photos to scrap before these. I still havent done the Speshal Challange...Im hoping to go to Michaels Thursday. its going ro have to be since its due friday. Family Guy Starts September 10ths! Woo-Hoo. LOST starts october 4th. This season should be the best one yet. The writers have talked a lot about it and they admit they kind of strayed last season because there were things they had to do but this season they said they are going to focus on developing relationships, more indiana Jones adventures, and we learn why John couldn't walk. So it'll be very different than last season. The DVDa for season 2 comes on tomorrow. im going to try to get them on thursday. there is 8 hours of bonus materials in cluding a montage of Sawyers nicknames, never before seen flashbacks, and stuff like that. Tyler and I are so excited. we're going to get junk food and watch them.

Broken back Layout


I scrapped a page of when i threw my back out. why not scrap the misery also? My great-Grandkids will probably like to look at my joys and sorrows too haha. I chose a more playful layout. I usualy dont work with ribbon because I have no ideas how to use it, but i used it as a page seperater on this layout. And the title is homage to Fantasy Island lol. It looks like a nice and cheery layout until you read the journaling.The Speshal ladies have posted a new challenge and thats scrap with the title "How hard can it be?" I have the perfect idea....

Random Pics





just some pics i took yesterday

Make-Up Layout



Well, i did a new layout tonight after work. Its about my playing with make-up. I wanted a stressed look. I sanded the photos and shredded the ribbon. I just wanted kind of a work in progress look. the picture dosent really capture it though the real thing is much better lol. I couldnt find
Daisy tonight and then I looked in her cage and she was sound asleep. She loves it in there. In the pic you can see a bird feather. thats a toy she found when she was exploring outside. She wouldnt
put it down the entire day so I put it in her cage so she would have something to play with when I was still aseep. Maritza said I could babysit Kiara Friday after work. She wants to go to the movies and I want to Play with Kiara. Kiara is 8 mnths and utterly gorgeous. I really hope the plans pan out. I enjoy spending time with her.

New Layout


Here is one of my latest layouts. Its of the flamingo tank at the Stone Zoo. It's rather simple, only two
different papers. I just cut the dark pink one to look like feathers. I kind of like it. I dont like the title but its easy enough to change once i get sizzlit alphabets int he future. I didnt really do much today. Just surfed, watched 4 episodes of LOST, well I did go to AC Moore and bought some Ink pads. We ordered some pizza. mmmmm....Sal's makes good pizza. We got green pepper and onion. As I'm typing this I could eat more. Well the emmies were on last night. Sandra Oh and Chandra Wilson didnt win :( nor did Christopher Meloni BUT Mariska Hargitey won. I will admit. i teared up when she won. She mentioned her new baby which was cute. Did anyone see Julia Louis-Dryfus win? If you didnt ry to see if youtube has it. Everyone was utterly shocked when they announced her name. even the nominees. pretty funny. She got on stage and was like in shock. She couldnt even talk and she thanks a couple of people and she was like "i know im forgetting someone..." She was like silent for like 30 seconds, the crowd was laughing and Debra Messing yelled "Your husband!!" It was funny and Juia looked great. The Aaron Spelling thing was sweet. Did anyone see Dick Clark? Now THAT was hard to watch. I did tear up seeing him struggle. It was very surreal. I have work tomorrow but not till 3, so i might be able to get some scrapping in. I have listed some new stuff on ebay. Check it out, my name is daisyjoyhowlett.

NZ Dare


Well, I have never participated ub the NZ Dare Blog but i did this weeks challenge which was use 7 patterned papers. It was actually hard. I don't much like patterned paper but i still did it. Tonight is the Primetime emmies. Im actually looking forward to it. greys anatomy is nominated 11 time. LOST is nominated. I dont think ER is but im not sure. I dont work tomorrow so I can watch it. There will be a tribute to Aaron Spelling. It's going to be a tear jerker because thinking about it...those of us that are 23+ pretty much grew up with Aaron Spelling. How many of our fav shows was a Spelliing Production and such? I was thinking about it this morning....pratty much all my fav shows back in the day, MNy Dad bought me two pairs of sneakers at Payless because it was bogo. I got these green ones and brown ones. theyre pretty comfy. Woo-Hoo! Im gonna wear the green ones to work. I may be doing some layout when i get home but i have tomorrow off so maybe tomorrow. you'll just have to wait and see. mu ha ha ha.

Congrats, Jeanette


My co-worker, jeanette, is getting married tomorrow. It's a buddist wedding so its actually a two day celebration. Today was like a blessing (or something like that) Mike M. (co-worker) and I went for a little bit. Everyone looked so gorgeous. I absouty love Asian wedding styes. Jeanette looked so stressed but soo pretty. Here is a picture of Mike, Jeanette, and myself. We couldnt stay for too long because Mike is going away to college in the morning and he still had to pack. Both Jeanette and Mike are starting a nice new chapter in their lives. Good luck, guys! I may be doing some scrapping tonight. I'm so tired and i need to get up early. The last picture is of how much of a loser i am. The is a reality lost "game" going on right now. Rachel Blake is trying to expose The Hanso Foundation and what they do and how theyre real and how the show is glorifying them. It's actualy really interesting and to the point how Hanso members going onto talk shows writing artices for the times etc etc. I may be starting to believe
it shortly. Anyway, The people who are doing this need to print out signs and post them as many paces as they can and here is a pic of my contribution. The whole Hanso Foundation is actually getting more disturbing. Where is Alvar Hanso? he needs to come out of hiding the little pussy. go to exposehanso.com or rachelblake.com or intheexperiance.com for more info. If youre easily obsessed like I am, you'll like it.

Salem. NH

Well We took Tyler school shopping. I think he spent like 100 bucks and still hasnt gotten everything. I only bought one thing and that was a gift for someones birthday coming up. I went to three different shoe stores to try to find shoes and they didnt carry my size or they were 45 bucks plus. Whatever happened to $16 pair of sneakers. Right now I have no sneakers to wear to work. I am so pissed off. I'm gonna haffa take some pics of my shoes to show you how holey they are lol. I COULD go to payless because its bogo, but the paycheck i got this week was for the week I hurt my back so it's crap and i still need to pay rent. Anyway, done complaining. Mom took us to friendlys which smelled like ass, but the food was good. Im so uncomfortable right now. I got what I usually get, the chicken strip basket and a reese peices sundae (Eat your heart out,, Georgine) Im going to sleep good tonight, too bad, i have to go to work tomorrow, but Jeanette is having her wedding reception thingy so Mike is gonna pic me up at work and we're going to go. There might be some Thai food there :)
