I'm Worn the Heck Out

I knew this weekend was gonna be crazy, but DAAAMN....it took a lot outta me! I think I'm not meant to have too many people in my house at one time unless there is mass drinkin' involved. I'm just too much of a control freak. I like things to be a certain way and when those things are pretty much opposite of the way I think they should be, I just wanna poke out my eyeball. Now, it's Monday and I'm still totally zonked and i still have a killer headache. I wish I was at home cleaning some and gettin' ready for Christmas Eve. I hate doin' extra stuff on top of all the everyday stuff when I get home from work.

Amazingly, I managed to get everything (mostly) marked off my to-do list that I needed to get done this weekend. We took the girls to see the Lights of Life and that place was CRAZY this year! I think more people are lookin' for free or really cheap stuff to do now since the economy blows. Me, I'm ALWAYS about cheap or free. I wanted to take the kids to the Stone Mountain Christmas thing, but it's like $22 for adults and $17 for kids.....just to walk around in a Christmas decorated town and see Santa and a Snow Angel. That's absofreackinlutely RIDICULOUS! I'll totally pay that much to take the kids to the King Tut Exhibit in a few weeks, but to see a fat man dressed up in a Santa suit sayin' HO HO HO? No.
This weekend I also got tattooed, actually did my first tattoo (Hello Kitty on Jay's butt...pictures soon to come!), and got a Christmas gift that J couldn't wait to give me. It's the baddest assest ring like EVER, but again, you gotta wait for the picture. No pictures today. Usually I get them uploaded and resized and purdy right after they're taken, but like I said, I'm worn the heck out.
My dogs got out again this weekend (dumb damn dogs) and I received the last of my Christmas stuff I had ordered in the mail. I even got this DVD signed by Elton John. I'm assuming I won it through a sweepstakes or somethin' since I do those every now and again......anybody want it? I ain't got no use fer it. AND ontop of all this awesomeness, I dropped my cell phone in the toilet. Again. Atleast I hadn't actually used the toilet yet this time. BUT, my phone's a bit wonky now. The first time all was good. There was no water damage, but this time the little dot turned red indicating water damage (there's actually a little dot behind your phone battery that turns red if there is any water damage...did you know that? Sneaky little bastards!). I just can't afford another phone right now and I'm a year from an upgrade. Anybody got an AT&T phone they wanna donate???

Now, here it is two days away from Christmas Eve. I'm in the home stretch. Almost there. I'll clean up some tonight after dinner and the fun and crazy will start tomorrow when I start the cooking. Mmm...I can't wait. It's gonna be awesome! Ill also hopefully get some pictures ready to add to tomorrow's blog.
Until then.......

Oops! I Did It Again!

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. ...

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

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...

East Atlanta Strut 2010

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...
