Kinda of a rant

First off, just to let ya know, I love to play the Sims3 game. Well, recently I found some mods that I thought were pretty cool. Well, these mods allow same sex interaction. I don't mind, but obviously some people found it offensive. I took 2 pictures of my lesbian sims and posted them in a album. Yes I edited the genitalia with black marks. Oh that wasn't good enough. Both photo's were reported. So I just deleted the album. I won't be posting the photo's here to show what I did. 

About 9 people sent me a PM expressing the distaste that I produced, but yet when I went to their pages, there were posts ALL over the place promoting same sex relationships. Double edge sword they are playing. Geesh, it is just a freaking game that thousands of people play. Some people are just way to sensitive to see that. Oh well, to keep the peace, I deleted the album. And won't be uploading anymore photo's from my game. That includes any houses I build.

Severe Weather...

Severe weather is upon us. Yea, I have been watching the weather channel as well as local channels for any and all updates. So far, we haven't had any tornado's. South Texas(Midland - Lubbock - Dallas etc) have been getting them. Oklahoma got hammered with them. Over 50 or so. I don't think Oklahoma has ever had a year without tornado's. Norman got hit last week with a high end EF2. Yup lots of destruction. One elderly lady did loose her life. She drowned in her cellar due to the flooding that was going on. R.I.P to the un-named. Horrid way to die, but I guess it was her time to go home. 

Living in an RV when there are storms around does put me into my nervous state. I have seen the pictures of RV's being thrown around like feathers in the wind. It gets even more scarier when the local sheriff decides that it is best to stay in the park just in case there is a tornado so he can warn everyone to get to shelter. The cellar here is NOT cleaned out and has some weird animals living there. The owner refuses to clean it out. So if we do get a threat here, we are pretty much screwed.

Plus there was a big debate on one of the Oklahoma News channels about the schools there not having a cellar. I personally believe that every school in Tornado alley must have a cellar. Wither it is used or not, It should be mandatory to have one. When I posted my thoughts on the subject, Lots of people liked my comment and even replied that they agree. Our kids need safety from these fierce beasts of nature and some of the schools don't have it. I guess the government don't give a damn about the safety. If it was up to me, yes there would be a cellar at EVERY school in tornado alley. It don't matter if they only get 1 tornado in a 10 year span, it only takes 1 to take a school out and kill innocent children and teachers.

Some people.....................Never ends

For the past week or so, I have been watching a model horse transaction group on Facebook. Seeing who is good to deal with etc. Well, another red light went up for Scarlett Wilde. Oh man that started a whole bunch of comments. 2 people in particular are Scarlett's cronies. Every time someone places a red on Scarlett, they jump in saying what a wonderful and sweet person she is. These 2 girls are completely blinded to her. So now everytime someone posts a red, they post a bunch of greens. Ashley Foulk told me that I was under 21 and acting like a 2 year old. Uhmmmm, I'm not 21. She has a foul mouth and claimed that it was everyone else who was cursing. I did look at her FB page and thought to myself "I wonder if she uses those words in front of her 3 kids?"

I have told Kollean who it was that was reporting back to Scarlett when someone said anything bad in pm. I hope she takes my warning to heart and remove those 2 from her friends list. 

Oh here is something else I found while I was "Surfing the web"

IMO this is a direct threat

" Lastly, after being singled out myself and had serious cyber attacks,
as well as a virus sent to my computer caught by my anti virus software
and my facebook and paypal being hacked.  I take trouble makers seriously."



If my memory serves me right, I found this in a model horse forum. 
If it is directed towards me about the virus crap, I can tell you right now, I don't have her email and I don't want it. As for her FB and PayPal being hacked, that is her own damn fault. Not mine
I really don't appreciate being accused of something I have no clue to what happened.



The problem with Scarlett is that for every wrong doing that she does, she blames the other person. It don't matter if the model was broken in transit to her house or broken AT her house. It is ALWAYS the other persons fault. She hides behind the block button and talks smack about everyone. Sometimes I wish FB would just do away with that option. Oh well.

New models with performance photos

Good evening. Well I finally got around to getting some photo's of our new models. Plus I finally got my TWH named and pedigreed. I had fun finding his parents. Since he is a blue roan, His sire is one as well. Oh well, here are the new photos
 
 Pictured above is Winter Blues R Gone, 2015 DAH in a luscious dappled buckskin. Rider is by Anne Field. Yes I know the reins look un-crossed, but they are crossed
 Here is TH Dexter, Stone Perf horse by PDX Studios to a wild splash overo Paint. Rider by Anne Field.
 Here is the same horse performing the lope.
 Here we have our newest gaited boy. I purchased him from Nikki Byler. His name is: Dancin' Blue Moon
There is one problem with this photo though. Look closely at the bit on the off side. The headstall for this tack set is just a bit to small for him. So now I have to either make a bridle to fit, or have another tack maker make me one. Yes he is entered in his first photo show. It is a month long judging/voting show. I will be uploading his photo's to other online shows later this week.

2015 = NO live shows

Good morning everyone. I was recently looking on the NAMSHA website for any live model horse shows that was close to me. Well, where I live, Live shows are hours away - I have yet to see one in Amarillo. Anyway, The closest shows here in Texas was in Magnolia. A small town just North West of Houston. For me to go there, I would be driving for 8 hours and when I mentioned that to Daniel, I seen the look on his face. Last year when I traveled to Colorado for a show, it took me 8 hours to get there. Well the reason is cause the speed limit was 55 and me being a law abiding person, yea I went that speed. Daniel don't understand that either. So he got mad about it and set the rule that from now on, I am only to go to shows that are 4 hours away. So that means, no going to shows in Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma and New Mexico(when and if there is any held there). I asked him about any shows that might be held in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area............BIG MISTAKE!!! He went ballistic over that. He don't want me anywhere near there cause of the (as he puts it)"High accident rate". Uhmmm I am a damn good driver and watch all around me. The answer is and will always be "NO". So my only venue for any live shows would be: Amarillo, Lubbock and Wichita Falls. 
Jessica Geer normally holds one in September in Wichita Falls, but she has been going through financial problems, so I came to terms with that quite easily. But for Amarillo and Lubbock? Yea, right. Heck, when NAN was held here in Texas a few years back, I couldn't go. Why? Cause it was located on the east side of Dallas. Thus meaning I would have to drive THROUGH Dallas to get there. I personally feel that Daniel is smothering me so much, that it hurts him to even think of me driving to the store. And that is only 8 miles away. He is constantly telling me to "Watch out for the other drivers" Like no duh, I do. Plus he is afraid that something will happen to me(accident wise). I am a better driver than that, but he don't see it that way. 
Plus he says that my hobby takes to much of my time. Like what am I going to do for 8 to 12 hours of the day while he is at work? Sit on my thumbs and act dumb? He is wanting me to be just like his mother(no disrespect to her), but I am NOT the type that will stay at home 365 days and do NOTHING. I like to go to shows, mingle with friends and talk about horses. Is there a problem there? I don't see one, but he does. 
I know a lot of people have told me to leave him and stuff like that, but I can't. I love him to much for that. I just want some freedom to go to model horse shows at least 3 x's a year.(2 shows. NAN)
Plus I was asking around about having a fellow hobbiest who is going to NAN this year if they could proxy about 4 of my horses.........................nope, no one is willing. But yet, when another person asks, they are like "Sure, I will proxy for ya" 

I guess it is time to just step back from the hobby and seek other venues for a hobby. 
Another note, I know for a proven fact that Scarlett Wilde is still up to her tricks. I lost 3 customers in 1 week about a month ago. They wanted one of my presentation sets then about 5 or 6 hours later, they back out cause they "Heard" that my work was shitty. They wouldn't tell me who told them lies, but I knew right off who it was. Karma is going to be a bitch on her when this is all done with.

2 hobbies vs husband

Yea, you read right.. 2 hobbies vs the husband. Lately he has been on a rampage about BOTH of my hobbies. Model horses AND my crocheting. They seem to irritate him so much that he now bitches about them both. 

It started Saturday when I was sitting in my chair working on my latest graphgan. He seen my box of yarn and asked "Is that the only box of yarn you have?" I had replied "Yes, but will be ordering more to finish off the other 3 afghans that I have".....oops wrong thing to say. He went into anger mode in less then a second. Ranting and raving on how I am "Blowing HIS money" on yarn and models. Uhm...........I have only bought like 4 models this year and maybe 2 balls of yarn, which we know is way much cheaper than a model. But dayum, why go into rage when I mention that I need yarn to FINISH 3 other afghans? I wanted to rage on with him, but I have to keep my temper down. Why I want to keep it down cause I have been known to do things that would put me in jail. When I get that mad, I black out and don't remember any part of the arguing. It is only after I have calmed down that I realize where or what I am doing. So yea, keeping that from happening, I normally walk away. That I know makes him that much more angered and thus causing him to leave in his pickup. Yesterday though, he did apologize for his out burst and told me that I can buy more yarn. We were able to calmly talk about the finances and what we are able to spend. I told him that when it comes to my models, I only buy models that I like, and IF I can't afford them(even though I like them), don't mean that I am going to buy them. Don't get me wrong, there are thousands of models I would love to purchase, but normally they are out of my price range. So I make the decision to not buy them. Sometimes after a few months(or even years), the price goes down to where I can afford them, thus I will then buy them. I know that some models the price don't go down, it keeps going up. So I just download a photo of them and put them in my "Wish I could afford" folder. Yes, it does consist of a lot of HTG models that I know I won't ever to afford. Does it bother me? Sometimes it does, but I have learned to live with it and think that the lucky owner paid a pretty price for the model. 

I also told the hubby that I do make sure that the bills are paid BEFORE I buy any yarn and or models. I check our checking account on a regular basis to make sure I can afford something before blindly buying it. Yea, that checking account is the master to wither I buy model/yarn. It speaks, I obey. I just wish the hubby would do that. LOL like that is going to happen anytime soon.

March and this crazy weather

Happy March everyone. Weather here is nuts. One day of 60 degree temps and then BOOM!! an arctic blast of air the next day. I know many people are having to put up with way more than what we are and I know they are so waiting for the day they can say "LOOK NO MORE SNOW!!" We say that here a few days after it has snowed. Yes it melts that fast. Plus I wish there was some way the state of Maryland could haul all that snow they got this year to California and Nevada. Those two states are in dire need for water in any form. Mother Nature must be really pissed off at those two states for a reason. 

Ok On with other news. We are currently working on the next "Guess the size" costume. Date of announcement will be in April. We are currently working on the details of the rules. Kollean still hasn't said anything about the one she won. I will just have to mail it to her and go from there. Unless she wants me to show it for her. LOL 
We are also getting caught up on the back orders that we slacked on. That is my bad though and thankfully the person said she wasn't worried. Artistic work takes time to perfect.............I love that quote. Well, enough for now.
