I'm broke....Anybody Wanna Do Some Trading?

Image
By
Yep, I spent WAY too much on the kids this year. Not surprising. I always do. I want them to have everything they want that I can give them. They may get most their clothes from a thrift store and not a lot of stuff through the year, but dammit.....Christmas will rock their socks off if I have any damn say. I go way overboard. So what.

So what.....what happened is this year I end up having no money left for anyone else. That's so what. I'm a gift giver. I LOVE giving gifts that make people happy. I love the thought that goes into finding the perfect gift........I see the face of the person that's gonna get it and it makes me HAAAPPPYYY! It ain't like I get everybody and their mama's gifts, I CAN'T afford that, but I still got stuff to give yo and the people I got stuff to give to still have already gotten all kindsa weird hand made stuff from me (which they will still get this year), but I have ideas....things I wanna buy. Dammit.

SO, here's my proposition......anybody out there in handmade land wanting to do a little trading? I got aprons,
bears....
and stockings. I can also make felt monsters, creatures, animals, whatever....I can even make things from pictures your kids draw! All 100% PURE FREAKIN' AWESOMNESS if you're interested!

Here's what I'm lookin for:

Crazy awesome stuff for J. He's the tattooed, old car and motorcycle kinda guy.

Unique, pretty jewelry for my mom. Not beads and crystals though. or maybe some pottery kinda stuff.

Anything Naruto for B.

GA Tech something for my step dad....or something man like.

Some awesome computer geekery or funny something for my Bro.

I think that's about it. Anybody up for trades?

You always know I'll trade. Too bad there aren't any babies to buy for.

APB....Little Jimmy is Missing!!!

By
It's December 1st and Little Jimmy shoulda made his first appearance at the house this morning. Evidently, I hid Little Jimmy so good that last time last year that even I can't find him. This is no bueno. Little Jimmy is an Elf on the Shelf . We read the book, he shows up in a different spot every morning and watches and reports back to Santa every night. Seriously. The boy gets it. He knows. The elf ain't nothin' but a stuffed doll. The girl....she still believes. She was snoopin' around a week or so ago and found the book that Little Jimmy is SUPPOSED to be stuffed in after Christmas and said "Mom! Little Jimmy's not in his book! He's gone back to the North Pole to get all his instructions!" "Dammit. She STILL believes in Little Jimmy", I remember thinkin'. I mean really, you try comin' up with 30 different hidin' spots for a little elf that won't take your kids more than a few minutes to find every mornin...

Oops! I Did It Again!

By
I wrecked my car.....again. Just a fender bender this time. I was in that awesome after work bumper to bumper traffic on the highway. I sneezed....and I sneezed again and again and then a snot rocket flew outta my nose. As I go to wipe the hangin' snot outta my nose....BAM. I hit a car. What really sucked was when I hit the car my snot covered hand slid up and smeared on the lense of my glasses. Awesome. Just fuckin' awesome and to top it all off, I got another ticket. I get home and I'm all pissy and shit. Jeremy says "Why you so pissy?" Uh, HELLO? I just wrecked my stupid fuckin' car! He says, "you're not used to that by now?" Admittedly, I've had a few problems with bumpin' into cars and other things here and there, but dang....it ain't like it's ever my fault. Psht. Like this one time, the girl was in the backseat and needed a kleenex. I turned around to gave one to her. I hit a car. It was dead stopped at a red light. ...

East Atlanta Strut 2010

By
I've been sewin' my fingers off tryin' to get ready for the East Atlanta Strut . It was the first show I had ever done and it was a BLAST! Bein' used to your standard kinda craft shows, you know the ones.....wood cut into silly stuff, marsh mellow guns, lace and potpourri, you can imagine my excitement when I was accepted to do the Strut, which ain't your mama's craft show. After three years, I've decided to give it a go again. I've really focused on my bears since that's what I really enjoy makin' and it's what everyone seemed to like best. You definitely won't find anything else like 'em out there! They're all sad lookin' and junk.....and people wanna hug 'em when they see 'em. I started sewin' these guys three years ago and after readin' an article in a magazine about a man that went to war, was burned badly while there and came home to his finance, married her and made babies with her despite all his s...
