I have missed my membership for SO LONG! I now can have an updated journal with my favorite journal skin

I have officially been married for 5 months and 6 days to my lovely husband ~Ichi-go His photography work is totally amazing, he uploads often, unlike me
Reason being...I started to like uploading my photos to Facebook instead...just something about uploading 25 works in a couple minutes with quick editing is very addicting and I feel spoiled when I come back to dA and I can upload all of what I want...but I have to do each separately   Stupid I know. I also bought me a camera last year that is small and fit in my pocket, so because of the photos I get with that one, my D5000 hasn't really seen the light in a while But I plan to play more with my photography instead of taking it so seriously and complaining about the lighting and more.
We went on our honeymoon to Gatlinburg, TN and mainly to Ripley's Aquarium. I have so many photos, I don't know where to start. And we went to the moonshine factory. Needless to say the smell would make you tipsy when walking by, lol!
I'm writing Childrens' Books on my cat Zoe. I have 2 books done so far, I just need to get them published
My sister is moving back to Florida, but when I go see her, I get to go to Disney and Sea World. I haven't been back there in AGES and I can see other family who has been avoiding me.
I'm looking to go to college for Hospitality Management. There are always jobs in hotels and restaurants, I enjoy getting a paycheck and this will help me get a job so I'm thinking of my future now before I become a starving artist/photographer like my husband and I are now
I've been into my family tree for a while now. My cousin has been helping me with it alot. I've found out alot of interesting stuff! But the only information I don't have is my Grandmother's, my dad's mother. She thinks I'm using census records as leverage and she won't be manipulated for my personal gain. Whatever. I just can't find any records of her and her family anywhere and she tells me her family weren't criminals-plainly put. I just want names to put in my family tree so I can show my kids in the future, I've also found some health concerns I should look out for in myself.

Also if anyone out there knows who Foamy the Squirrel is *look him up on youtube* I used to hate bagels and cream cheese, now I'm in love with them and want to eat them all the time. Anyways...I find myself acting like Foamy with bagels and cream cheese now...this is the video [link] WATCH IT and that is ME IN THE MORNING

Anyways....I have been REALLY ADDICTED to CASTLEVILLE on FACEBOOK Like seriously, I play it everyday and it's all I want to play.

I'm going to go play Castleville now...[link] <---that's my facebook profile, you can friend me and see alot of my recent works on there.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day and an awesome 2012 year!!!
I'd like to thank my watchers and friends on dA who have been with me for so long and faved my works. Everything is appreciated!!!!

I want to feature those who have my friends for a while!

Mary is my number one best friend who I can tell anything to and has been friends with me since I was 10. I love her works and she got me into drawing and anime and manga and much more. Anime and drawing has defined my life in so many ways, I thank her the most.


Besides being my husband and my best friend since I was 14, I thank him for being there for me when no one else was and putting up with my BS and making me laugh when times got tough.


I have never made a friend online that I've kept up with for so long, even given my mobile number to text her messages and photos. I have enjoyed talking to her on dA and skype and being friends on facebook. I love watching her little O-bug grow up!


I really just wanted to feature her works! I love every single one of them and I wish I could do the same. I found her work from the group :groupdisneybabes: and after that I was hooked, I have to share with you my favorites!
