What "does it" for you?
Gets you going? Gives you a giggle? Makes you want to create?
I was thinking about this as I worked this morning and figured I would come on here and share some of those things that are making me happy, driving me to create, getting me going today:
- pink stuff from Target : those cute little moccasins with sparklies on top & a tank top
- string cheese : can't have it when Simon is here, but man I love it
- having a head set for my phone while being in on a meeting from home & being able to clean Simon's room at the same time while listening & contributing
-
Color Box Chalk Inks - seeing this dare
- getting this photo from my friend Jason of his daughter Ruby & Simon running
Love to hear what it is that is "doing it" for you today...
That dare for sure!! I already have a million ideas running through my head. Love those girls!

Ooh Ali glad you found the dares.. I'd love to see what you come up with. I love all the challenges and dares and that sort of thing.. and while I have little ideas floating about in my head I have yet to execute any of them.
I'm going out tonight.. having fun.. that's what does it for me.

It's been one of those "hard Kaden days" today, so I definitely needed something to do it for me. Dropped Kaden off at a friend's house for 30 minutes to hurry and do my grocery shopping, where I discovered, "TROPICANA TWISTER GRAPE SODA!!" That's doing it for me today. Mmmmm....DEEEEE-lish!

* Buying some new MM paint.
* Believing I might break out of my creative block.

What gets me going on a Friday afternoon?
-The knowledge that my weekend begins in 5 minutes.
-Having plans with friends and hoping they hold up.
-A big styrofoam cup of iced tea leftover from lunch... not so iced anymore, but still good.
-Reading blogs, connecting with other scrapbookers, taking the time to comment and not just lurk.
Here's to FRIDAYS!

What gets me going? A iced cold ginger beer! An Ali Edwards layout! The knowledge we are camping at Waldo Lake for 5 days (5 days is my limit w/o a shower). Cleaning out 3 bags of clutter from my basement today. Checking out the Pottery Barn catalog. My garden.
Taking the dare on Tuesday when I have more time. Leaving for the weekend.

Scrapping with a very good friend I haven't seen in a while tonight.
Creative juices being vigorously stirred by the fabulous effer dare.
New KI papers in my grubby little hands.
No more work in 10 minutes. Not that I'm really working anyway, I'm blogging, so I guess I shouldn't complain. :)

What gets my creative juices flowing?
-A great photo to scrap - usually of my daughter
-When I'm making something (a card or a scrapbook) for someone else
-When I've had a stressful/exhausting day and being creative seems to be the only thing to unwind!
