...and continues...

Yesterday was Cyber Monday:



I bought more stuff online.

AYFKM?!

My mother had no blue and silver Christmas stockings for her beautiful Christmas party.... so I accomodated her.




Then today....

(I feel as if I need to wear the cone of shame at this point)




I bought more.




My husband said do not buy me anything for Christmas.


He's currently up to about 9 packages under the tree and another on tis way... but DUDE.

Seriously.



62$ Shoes... for 18 bucks with free shipping.

How can I pass that up? Seriously?



So now I shall don the cone of shame and have a dove chocolate to console myself...




I really need to stop the madness.

The Saga Continues...

So my mother has lost sleep.

I don't say this lightly.

She woke up in a cold sweat, 2:30 a.m. worrying about her party.

I can't help but giggle.

I'm so sorry she's so stressed over it.

I thrive at parties.

I love parties.

I love to host parties.

I love to cater parties.

I keep thinking I get that from my mom.

I will find out after December 14th.

I ordered her silver table clothes from Kohls.

I ordered her suprise center pieces from Kohls.

I really hope she loves all I ordered her from Kohls.

I love Kohls.

I am done now.

I'll post about something else now. :D

Hmmm...

tap tap tap is this thing on?



Oops...




August....



August was hot.



August was a long time ago.




August was insane.




Did I mention August brought Headlice?




We won't talk about it...


August melted into a similarly insane September.

As well as a pretty crazy October.

My birfday was in October.




I got to go paintballing.



and just for the record that picture is completely unrealistic... this is more like it.




in fact one of my friends got nailed on his bald head... twice. :D

Now we're into November.




I'm stoked.

It's almost Thanksgiving.




Which also means it's almost Black Friday.




And almost time for me to decorate my house for Christmas.



I love this season.

I'm going to try to post a few ramblings here and there more often. Especially now that my introvert mother is hosting a Christmas Party.

She's not an introvert. Not really.

She's obsessive compulsive and "matchy matchy"



She has a "theme" every year for Christmas.





I'm not kidding.




Everything matches.





I'm laughing at this becuase a friend of hers (for the past 26 years) voulenteered her home to host the annual Home Extension Holiday Party. Where a bunch of women from the country celebrate the holidays the only way they know how, with homeade, E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G.




Man I miss the country.

I'm done for now.

I'll post more about Mom's Holiday party later. :D

And some of the fun things I've gotten for her for it. :D

It's that Time AGAIN!

TIME FOR SCHOOL!!!


After being irritated that my curriculum for my homeschool was delayed and I wouldn't be able to start by when I wanted, (August 23rd) I resigned myself the fact that I'd be starting later.



I hate being late.



It really makes me angry.





I have a specific schedule and I like sticking to it.



Now if I make myself late I can deal with that and be mad at myself

But when somebody else makes me late.




this is me seething....




However... I found out that it'll be shipped here today.




And all was well in the world.

You know... I think if I could have order in my life for just one thing it'd be sitting on my arse in front of the computer typing random things to fill the void which I have deamed my spot in the blog universe.



Like for instance why are the funny cat pictures the best ones I can find to convey what I want to express in an expression?




Yeah that works. :D

Progress

If I could stay away from the stupid computer I'd be much much further. But as it is, I'm working on top number 3.



I feel accomplished.

I feel empowered.




I feel bored out of my mind and I want to get out and pick up the few groceries I didn't pick up yesterday.



I think I'm going to do some laundry now.

It's Called Procrastination

I work better under pressure.



Last year I had this HUGE project done three weeks ahead of schedule. I felt empowered.



This year, Not so much...

It's all still sitting here mocking me.

What project you ask?

7 matching 4th of July outfits for girls ranging from ages 12-6.




Yeah, it's gonna be fun. I should get busy now... but hmm, what else could I do?

I made it further today than yesterday. I plugged in my Iron. :D

The Saga Continues...

Okay so here's an odd story for you. Feel free to weigh in *no pun intended*.

Back in January, I began to feel the burn.


I worked out very steadily for 3-4 days a week.



I lost no weight.



None.

Zip, Zero, Zilch.



I went home to Oregon for 2 weeks, went on a couple hikes, got some exercize bands did my thang okay?



I came home and have not been to the gym since. May 1st was my last day in the gym.




Sad yes I know. We're going on two weeks.

I've lost 12 pounds. Now I don't look like I've lost it and I've checked out my scale and everything, and sure enough it's accurate.



WTF?




I've lost the faith in working out.
