 | Its gonna be a great 2008 |
 Hello hello! I've missed you all! 
Things have been really busy the last couple months guys. We had a flood at work on November 30th and had to move into some portable offices, so all that has kept me busy. Plus I received a promotion at work around that time too. I'm still Office Manager but am now Regional Secretary (Asst to my Regional Director of Operations) as well. I TOTALLY love my new duties but they keep me pretty busy so I'm sorry I haven't been around lately as much as I'd like. Now that I'm getting the hang of everything, things are settling down, and my goal for 2008 is to visit the blogs on a more regular basis. PROMISE! Hope you all had a nice holiday season btw!
As I write this, my Chargers are playin the Colts in the playoffs!! Can I get a WHOOT WHOOT from you all? Yeah baby!!
Now before I get into toys I wanted to show you my new doggy, Baxter! He was given to me by a guy who was going to move to Hawaii and wasn't going to be able to take him with. I'm so lovin my Baxter... he's the best dog in the world!!
Ok, now you all know I love the beach right? My Angel B doesn't call me WaterBaby for nothin. :* So here's a pic of my favorite spot to kick back. I spent a nice relaxing Fall afternoon reading that day and made a little friend too!
Had a great Thanksgiving with my dad and family as well. Here's a couple pics of me with Rocky kickin back before dinner... and my boys bein their silly selves.
Okay, now to show you some of the cool SW stuff I've recently purchased and received from close friends....
First off... here's some recent gifts/ prizes I've received from Melinda. Back in November I had the pleasure of having breakfast with her. We ate at my local little beach cafe and had a blast. She of course, being the sweet person she is, brought me some gifts from her daughter's school!! I wear that shirt all the time Melinda! Thank you!!
Speaking of shirts, scored a couple cool ones... my pink letter girly one, and this super cool one that all the SW guys I know want REALLY bad.... I'm still on the look out guys! I also got this awesome birthday care package from another dear GHG bud, and I love my Hand Solo tee! Ha ha!
I've rearranged my collection recently and you'll see some of my newer things... Here's my movie shelf, along with my Master Replica mini sabers and my laser pointer sabers, my fellow GHG member and dear friend scored for me. Here's some close ups. Speaking of that special someone... I received this Christmas care package recently as well... look at all this killer stuff! Thank you so much! You so ROCK!
Now onto my ever growing action figure collection. I have some I've decided to leave in their package too.
I'm not sure if I showed you these yet. I'm hoping to get them signed at C5. I need me some autographs!!!
Here's another shelf of stuff. That Goofy Vader was a gift from my boss. Yeah the same boss who makes fun of me for my fandom. LOL 
I now have 3 Unleashed Figures! All three were gifts! JP77 actually got that Maul one for me from a friend of hers who was gonna sell it at his garage sale! SCORED! Thanks sweetie!
Here's a couple more shelves of stuff you've probably seen before... and one more for good measure.  I am the proud new owner of SHIPS! Yay!
I finally hung my FX sabers up, but am missing a piece to hang the double blade Maul one, so only one is up at the moment. Sure LOVE playin with them! 
Bedtime reading material.
Well, I gotta get back to this game guys! My Chargers are lookin GOOD!
Thanks for stoppin by and as always,
Lotsa Love!

Woo-Hoo for your Chargers! They made me think of you when I saw they were on TV....
What a great collection! When I get moved, I'll have to round up all my SW stuff into one spot and see what I actually have... it's not so much that I'm in danger of acquiring any duplicates... LOL
Great pics of the beach, and Baxter is SOOOOOOOOOOO adorable....

Amazing collection, Michelle!!!
Your boys are just so adorable - I remember them at CIV, and I just wanted to eat 'em up! Your beach pics are beautiful, and the puppers are so cuddly! And, of course YOU are one hot mama!!
I only have one question...do you actually dust all of those shelves! *cringe!*  !
OK, I have two questions - what was the Vader head that looked somewhat like stone? Very interesting piece!

Aww. No wonder you took in Baxter. Who could say no to a face like that?
You are getting all of your SW paraphenalia so nicely organized, it makes me think that maybe I should get around to doing it too... ah, some other time.
I love the Anakin & Padme Vanity Fair cover!!! I'm going to have to search back through my Mother's archives and see what I can find! Wish me luck!
Loved the pics!
Oh, Congrats on the promotion btw!

Again, congrats on your promotion - well deserved! I hope your new responsibilities don't keep you away from the really important stuff, like blogging & spewing!

LOVE the pics of everything SW but, especially your favourite beach spot.
This is usually the time of year that I start wishing for beach time and seeing your pics just put that longing in high gear (especially with the snow encrusted trees outside my office window)!
I too am a Steelers fan... Ami knows... Even though I am in NE Pats country, I couldn't be happier that they are playing your Chargers on Sunday. Going to be one heck of a game... can't wait!
LT is a phenomenal player - a force to be reckoned with!
