Blog Award Tags... I'm So Sorry!!!

I have received a couple of wonderful blog award tags that went UNRECOGNIZED!!! I am so sorry! This month has been a hectic month and I managed to allow the award notifications to get buried in the comments! I'm such a dork! So my sincere "thank you's" to Pam over at TheBugBytes.com and DanussasNails.blogspot.com for honoring me with these wonderful blog awards. Both sites have WONDERFUL content. Pam has the most incredible crafts (you know how I love those crafts) and I happen to know Pam and she's every bit as wonderful as the crafts she creates! And I'm new to DanussasNails, but the site is incredible and I'm thrilled that someone like her is giving ME an award! I'm thrilled to say the least. Now for the fun.... Here are the award rules:
1. Post the prize on my blog.
2. Mention the blogger who tagged me.
3. Give the prize to 5 friends.
4. Post on my blog the link to their blogs.
5. Announce everyone on their blog.
6. Make a list with 10 things that I like.

So my five blog awards go to:
http://summerthymestudio.blogspot.com/ - With my new Copic obsession... this amazing artist Vicki feeds the new addiction!!! ENABLER!!! hahahahaha!
http://www.cricutinspiration.blogspot.com/ - Another crafter whose blog rocks my socks... Like Pam, I know Mya and her work is out of this world!!!
http://canadiannickelscrapn.blogspot.com/ - Has the greatest scrappin videos! She's funny, fun to watch and just recently got picked for her first design team, so this blog is about to get CRAZY!!! :) Plus, she's a Halloween freak just like me... what's not to love?!?
http://scandalouslypolished.blogspot.com/ - part of a polish (as in nail polish) club called Wicked Vixens. From what I gather, they are like the biker chicks of the nail polish blogger world. Either way, this blogger cracks me up! I look forward to reading her posts every day!
http://blacknailpolishandlipgloss.blogspot.com/ - another Wicked Vixen alum with the rockinest nails ANYWHERE!!! Her blog's got that "darkness" that I love so much... I just gravitate there. Wait till you see her nails... you will too!!! Yah... wicked!!!

And the 10 things I like are:
1. God... You'll see quite a few Bible studies on this blog. I try to devote "connection" time every week to the one who makes EVERYTHING in my life possible.
2. My family... the greatest gift God has ever given me!
3. Sunglasses... designer sunglasses to specific. <--- what?!? I can be shallow if I want!

4. Arts and crafts... I think there may be some hidden "inner child" issues that my subconscious is trying to work through there, IDK! LOL!

5. Music... life would not be worth living without it!

6. Exercise... I've discovered how very important it is just to function every day. Was I really ever a couch potato???

7. Comedy... one of the things that keeps me sane... well, saner anyway. I would not have made it THIS far without it.

8. Quiet Time... usually with a hot bath, meditation music, incense and a hot cup of tea. Soothes my soul!

9. Reading... again, something to fill quiet times when I'm not in the tub! hahahaha!

10. This blog... it is my baby!!! I have been blessed with SOOOO many friends through this blog. The most talented and wonderful people actually read MY blog and tell me how great they think I AM!?!?! I'm thrilled EVERY day I get to log in!

Inking Pink Blog Hop

Hi Hoppers! Danielle, a.k.a. FitterTwit here.... so glad you made it!!! If you're mid-hop, you should be arriving here from Chelsea's blog . Was that a great project or what!?! If you're just joining us and need to start the hop from the beginning, you're gonna want to head over to our lovely Hop Hostess Patricia's blog to start the fun here on our VERY IMPORTANT Inking Pink Blog Hop! Here's to Breast Cancer Awareness!!! My project for this hop is a reminder card..."Remember your checkups!" What a wonderful way to say "I love you" to a dear friend or family member. Now you may not be able to see it in the pic above, but I altered The Greeting Farm's Ebony so that her tee shirt reads, "Say YES to Mammograms!" So, today I wanted to share HOW I added the words to her tee. First I printed the words as small as I could and still be able to read the message using my laser printer onto the paper that I would be using to color in my im...

Another Oldie But A Goody

Oh how I missed you!  This is a mani I haven't done in quite some time and I JUST realized that it NEVER got posted on my blog the first time I did it.  I can't believe it!  It's one of my favorites... and NOT just because it's a Halloween mani (mostly, but not entirely).  I like it because of all the Konad image plates I get to use to create this wonderful Halloween collage on my nails!  So here it is for the first time here on FunandmentalChanges.com!!!  And check out my thumb.... My thumb is sort of an exception to the rest of the manicure because the scary jack-o-lantern is off of a "fauxnad" plate, but the rest of the Konad images plates are M3, M17, M18, C01, C04 and C05.  Wow.... that really IS a lot of plates!!! So my base coat is Nail Aid's Pink Growth Therapy, then one coat of Orly's Mirror Mirror and then the various images stamped in Konad's special black and white polishes.  I LOVE THIS ONE!!!  The inspiration for this ...

Great Things Come In Small Packages

A couple of nights ago I had the pleasure of going to a Joel Osteen event. His wife and kids were there, his brother Paul was there along with local ministers. I did not pay for my ticket and believe it or not, I was picked up in a white hummer with black tinted windows... "my limo", I called it. This event was literally given to me. I got to spend the evening with two of the most amazing women and we had a BLAST. With all of that to be so grateful for, I find that my sights are set on the greatest gift given to me that night.... Philemon 1:6 . I really hate admitting this, but I have never read Philemon and I don't know why (it's 1.5 pages for crying out loud!!!). I want to say that it's so small and easily missed, but that isn't a reason.... made even less of a reason since I have tabs that extend from my Bible that don't know 50 pages from 1.... no excuses. Honestly, BECAUSE it's so small, it really should not have gone unread. Could ANY book of the...
