The last time I scrapped was yesterday- didnt get much done on the page but its a start. Want to get back there today and finish it up.
congratulations roberta. :)
i promised chocolate chip cookies for my grumpy kids this morning.
they are all so grumpy.
cookies cheer people up right?
i won't be having any cookies but i can still choose to be cheerful.
but if i could just find a gold headband…red boots…star covered leotard…
it would be EASY!
Diana Graham - Hi there, I am trying to have an Africa ad and cannot pull up your email from my computer.

Thanks

gabrielle - Oh I have a Wonder Woman costume you can borrow…complete with Star panty leotard. Can’t wait to see what’s in the shop…you have been a busy bee….
Rachel Ridd - I can’t wait to see what’s going to be in the shop! I feel like everything will sell so quickly though!

Tammy - Heyyyyyyy…where’s the link to your scrapbooking? I’m more than ready for some inspiration tonight.
Emily - Hi Meg. Congrats on your trip – mission work is exciting! If you are still taking advertisements I’d love to help you get to Africa!
s.t. - You go girRRRrRl! More power to you! Can’t wait for your etsy shop to open!
Londen - I am ready to shop! Im newish to your blog so I have not seen your pretty things in your etsy shop until recently. I will keep checking back.
gina - i used to love that woman!
Are those pillows for sale- I mean going to be?! I am giddy with anticipation- i’m loving the pom trimmed ones! Good Luck and bless all your new sponsers- how giving!!
Adrianne - You might be able to find wonder woman underoos on ebay… Not than any grown woman could fit in underoos…(But I sure loved mine as a kid.)
Susan - I just found your blog and it’s a keeper. I’m in shock and awe over your home, ideas and just plain cuteness. I see plenty of great ideas that I will be shamelessly stealing from you. Please remember…..”Imitation is the best form of flatery”. Is that how that saying goes???? Oh well, you know what I mean
Jessie - I LOVE reading your blog…so inspiring. Will you be able to blog while in Africa, or will your kids be taking over your crafting/blogging affairs (he he, the thought!)?
Traci - can’t wait. i am wanting another pillow or 2!!
Messy@Bungalow'56 - Is it just me? But I’m thinking nothing would be easy in a gold headband, red boots, and star covered leotard. Maybe it’s just me…
Rachel - Oh my lands alive, those pillows will be to die for! What budget?! I need me one of those pillows!
Roberta - Thanks to you and Courtney for the wonderful giveaway! I’m thrilled and can’t wait to receive the books!
Kelly - oh meg, i love how you so honestly admit you’re not wonder woman. I walk around thinking I can be if I try hard enough and then it is so hard to admit (usually amidst tears) that I am not when I get to the end of my rope. Looking forward to seeing the shop when it opens. Kelly
Jill J - I am gonna get me one of those pillows this time! Can’t wait for the grand re-opening! Congrats on all of the ads, I’ll go check them out now.

Michele with 1 L - Meg, I think you ARE Wonder Woman!! I get overwhelmed cleaning up after just 1 child!! I just recently discovered your blog through the Homie Awards (congrats!) and I now check in everyday. Your home, family, photos and blog are just beautiful. I’ve been stalking your Etsy shop all day too! Can’t wait to get my hands on a pillow and a shirt for my daughter! Since we have snow day #2 tomorrow (11″ cripples us here in Richmond, VA) I’ll be checking out all your awesome sponsors. May God continue to bless you and your family!
meaghan - girl…you could totally rock a leotard.
Misty, Southern Belle Mama - I’m swooning over those pillows! I’ll be stalking your store waiting for it to open! 🙂
Jessica - Thats great news about the sponsors! I agree, you’re a wonder woman! You have FIVE kids and a nutty dog and I whine about my TWO kids and lazy dog lol!
I havent scrapped in years–way before my kids were even born! I think it may be time to get back at it!
Foy (Garden Cook Write Repeat) - Wow, I am very impressed with the number of ads you got. Good for you!
Catherine McGuinness - Hello!
I stumbled across your blog a couple months ago, and I think that you just might be Wonder Woman. Your beautiful photos of smiling people, your positivity and creativity, the clean and colorful layout always brighten my day. Good luck with Africa! I am praying for you, and those that you are going to help.
Good luck!
pambuller - the ads look awesome!! i scrolled down through them all and they are beautiful! i plan to come back and look through all the links when i have a few more minutes. you are AFRICA BOUND!!! 🙂
Alaina - So excited to see all those ads!! All that support! God is faithful! Makes me so happy!
the wild raspberry - you must have a little bit of superwoman in you if you can make chocolate chip cookies and resist eating one…
go go superwoman!!
🙂
chocolate cookies = my kryptonite
chasity
Michelle - love love LOVE the pillows. . . i want them all but my hubby said only one. can’t wait for your shop to open!
Leah in FL - Hmmmm… I don’t know. I see a resemblance between you and Wonder Woman. :o)
Diana - Congratulations to Roberta!!
*waits IMpatiently for Meg’s shop to open*
*taps fingers repeatedly on desk*
*sigh*
LOL!
Wish I had my etsy stuff ready… I would grab a spot over there —>>>
Joel Rodell - Congrats on your ads Meg. Truly inspiring!
Becky @ Farmgirl Paints - I just love your cheerful spirit at making cooking when you are doing a no sugar thing. You rock girlie!!
Kacey - Can’t WAIT for your shop to open! Loving those bright and happy pillows.
You are doing amazing with your willpower. I have a hard time just giving up sugar for a few days!
Angela - One of the girls at a youth camp I used to volunteer at MADE HER OWN WONDER WOMAN SWIMSUIT. Complete with headband and those bullet-repelling wristlets. No kidding. It was awesome.
Laura Phelps - I have a super suit for you, but it is size 5T.
Carrie - Meg – Do you sleep? 🙂
I don’t know how you do it all with a house to run and 5 kids.
You are a rock star.
barbara - I think gold boots probably cure a world of ills 🙂
susan - how funny! i used to love watching that show. somedays i feel like wonder woman others not so much. hope those cookies help 🙂
Lillian - Cookies definitely cheer people up:) And cheering others up is always a surefire way to cheer myself up in a heartbeat! People on the Internet can wait – your grumpy kids need you and those cookies so much more;)
Dina - Wow! I just spent time wandering through everyone’s shops. I’m not only excited to help you with your mission trip, I’m honored to be amoung such amazing artists! What talent!
julia - I got a Wonder Woman notebook from Target…maybe that would help. I have the rainy-day-Monday-blues and I decided that I would keep telling myself the line from My Cousin Vinny “A grit? What’s a Grit?”…it seems to be helping.
I can’t wait to check out all of the ads! So much fun!
Jenna - I cannot wait for you to open your Etsy shop. I want a polka dot pillow so badly! 🙂
Julie - meg this spoke to me in my bible study [“frazzled female”]this morning, and i wanted to share. “when i am involved in a a task that causes me to be irritated, “praise focus” becomes a delightful challenge. i often paraphrase colossians 3:17 to myself. the verse reads ‘and whatever you do, in word or in deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.’ challenge yourself b/c you can be really creative with this one. like saying Lord, i praise You for my family who made this mess at mealtime and for a physical body that can still clean!! as you focus on the Lord and scripture instead of the “event”, you are empowered to glorify Him in everything you do!!” blesssings to you today!! the ads look great…go get’em wonder woman!!
your cool friend Cheryl - That picture of all your pillows makes me VERY happy.
kat - Holy Moly!!! I can’t believe that huge list of sponsors, it’s awesome! I have had your Etsy site on my computer all day long, I keep hitting the refresh button to see if it is stocked yet… it’s like waiting for Christmas to arrive. I can’t wait for it to open. I just know it’s going to be amazing. I just hope I am home when it does so I don’t miss out on anything!!! Good luck with everything.
Brianna - Thanks for the update! I have been checking on the hour since I woke up this morning, haha! Looking forward to it opening
Marie Tere - Ummmm….don’t think you can get away with it so easy….you are WONDER WOMAN, who’s running a little late. We’ll still be here when you are ready. No worries. And the ads are a great distraction….oh, so pretty! Now, off to say some prayers to the Random Number Generator Gods.
Janine - Oh my goodness. So many sponsors on the side! I can’t wait to spend some time looking at all of them!
donna - sorry Meg – but YOU ARE wonder woman!!! i wish i had 1/4 of your energy! I am waiting for the doors of the shop to open!!
