Valentine's Day ATART Feb 10-14

[Donnacr]

for those who would like to know - there is just over 35.5hrs till we can start.

[CynthiaSillitoe]

I cleared out room in my inbox and also my gallery, so these are good first steps.

[Donnacr]

CynthiaSillitoe - that is a very good start and reminds me to do the same (so I don't get caught like during the Postage Stamp ATART with a full Inbox)

CastleQueen5: You know, it is important for everybody to have clean teeth for this athon. I hope everybody else is brushing and flossing!

[CastleQueen5]

1. I love the countdowns to the art a thon

2. I even bought a water pik recently. Well yesterday. I did buy one recently and didnt like that the reservoir didnt have a lid by design. UGH, all the things that could land in that open area. My hair, for one. Anyway I took it back unused and got another. See you all with sparking teeth, on the 9th.

I'm even brushing and flossing my cat's teeth for the athon. (She has recently contacted PETA so I may get a cease and desist order....)

Thanks for the invite, I hope I can find the time (and energy) to make some art!

[theweavershand]

thanks for the invite! hoping to pop in for a bit.

[Lorna]

Thank you for the invite! I have a big mess here and maybe I can dig out a little and get some art made.

[dsign49]

I am going to play. Putting all my other crafting on the side. Thanks for the invite.

[CastleQueen5]

I need to think about how to make a fun dental hygiene card, for this swap. I love a challenge, but I do think the flossing and bright teeth should make an appearance. Off to scour quotes and magazines for teeth. Maybe, I can find one for a cat. Cheshire cat?

I was googling love quotes early. It kind of made me sad. I dont have a love of the kinds in the quotes. Pretty profound.

13 hours till we can start (just for you CastleQueen5 )

1. “People who smoke cigarettes, they say “You don’t know how hard it is to quit smoking.” Yes, I do. It’s as hard as it is to start flossing.” — Mitch Hedberg

[CastleQueen5]

I had to share this because it made me laugh. Stupid as it is

I’m always amazed to hear of air crash victims so badly mutilated that they have to be identified by their dental records. What I can’t understand is, if they don’t know who you are, how do they know who your dentist is?” — Paul Merton

Quote for you:
Lying through your teeth does not count as flossing.

I hope I'll be able to join in, but... WE FINALLY BOUGHT A HOUSE! Very long story; suffice it to say that we'll be moving on Mar. 14, but have to have our rental packed up and ready to move by Mar. 3. Driving to Los Angeles to celebrate my mom's 90th birthday Mar. 4 and will be home just in time for the movers to pack up and move us to Bremerton, WA. Oh, and did I mention we need to get our taxes done before going to LA, too? I think in the midst of the chaos and stress, I'm going to need to make some ATCs just to calm down.

Oh, and CQ5, this isn't exactly funny, but we did a Road Scholar week in Vegas called The Real CSI where we were taught by detectives, forensics people, and the coroner (Clark Co. Coroner is hilarious, btw). A forensic dentist told us that if we only took one thing away from the course, let it be to make sure your family knows who your dentist is, just in case... The only other thing I took away is that the only body farm in the U.S. is in Tennessee (or maybe it was Mississippi).

[Donnacr]

Ancient Planter - that is fantastic news that you finally bought a house!! You are certainly going to be busy before you move though, WOW!! Congratulations on your Mum reaching 90

I am loving all the teeth talk

under 9 hours till we start

I'm sorry but I kind of like that someone else is living a chaos too! Thank God I'm not moving now but many other extra things to do and take care + my job and daughter of course.

[Evalila]

Sorry you both have so much on your plates right now!

Gladly I only have chaos in my craft room. I´m currently trying to get rid of it...

[Nanni]

This sounds like it's a lot of fun. But my little girl doesn't give me a lot of space at the moment, as she prefers sleeping on my chest. So I guess I'll be mostly lurking and not much time for being creative. XD
