No Drama




My friend Angie's favorite phrase is Bitch Please. So I made this tag using a tutorial inspired by her. There are two different types of each tag due to Rick wanting to do something with the sign. I think Tink should be gothy or bitchy though she looks too innocent

James Odom Myspace for Pam

Someone I used to be real close with and have known for years brother committed suicide and she wants a myspace layout to honor him. This is what I came up with what do you think of it?

Tag... Hmm maybe could use a nice black border/frame?
I didn't have the energy to tube the ribbon either.

Extended Network Box

contact Box
It also could use the ribbon?

The Background

The Ribbon


Lyrics on Layout
Sunny days seem to hurt the most
Wear the pain like a heavy coat
I feel you everywhere I go
See your smile,
I see your face
I hear you
laughing in the rain
Still cant believe your gone

About the Army Knight and His Lady Book

I am going to create either a book about how we came to be along with all the emails and such and include in it the wedding things or make seperate books. In the Simple Scrapbooks May/June 2007 Issue. They have tips on creating a Wedding Album So I thought I would answer if I can some of the Questions here so I have them on file...
"The Proposal"
*How did you Meet? We met through Yahoo 360 Late 2006. Then Myspace... Then IM and Email. He would read my blogs and I would read his. He was stationed in Korea and I was here in the states. Specifically Georgia. In January we decided to go ahead and meet. He had gotten PCS'd to Alabama and was just 4 hours away. He met me at my sisters house. Not under the best circumstances but when in my life did I have opportune cirumstances. Its all in the way you look at it.
*What did you think of each other at First? He will have to answer his but I think we already knew but were thinking "safe" and avoiding anything that would make us do irrational things. Even though we coresponded through the net for over a year I still had thoughts typical of a first blind date.
*When did you first talk about getting married? Seriously or half jokingly. I don't think I know to this day if he was joking when he first asked me or why he would be crazy enough. I think it was the late end of the Month of January toward Early Feburary 2007.

After my first marriage ended so horribly I promised myself I would know for sure that I was marrying a soul mate, That I had no doubts in my mind other than the Definate feeling this is what I wanted.
