I just realized I need to get on the ball with christmas party plans. I'm still thinking that I'm going to have a sweet tooth party so it'd be in the afternoon or at night after dinner. I can't quite decide if I want to do a New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, or before Christmas party. New Year's Eve would be tough with Autumn. She's not old enough to ( Read more... )

The name of the store is going to be "Sew and Scribble!" Hahaha. Not one of the ones I put up yesterday but your responses were totally helpful! Special thanks to everyone who brainstormed with me on instant messenger. :P

I also have been working out some of the bugs on how to run it with two people and think I've found the best way to go about it ( Read more... )

My friend and I are getting ready to start our etsy shop. We each came up with a name and don't really know which is better. One is Christy Rose Designs and one is Craze Designs. Both are pairings of our names Christy Lee and Sharaze Rose. People are pretty split down the middle and the consensus is that craze is more modern and edgy and christy ( Read more... )

People are stupid. I hate it when I can see the proverbial train rolling down the tracks of doom. Mike and I can see this particular train wreck especially clearly. I mean, really. If one person is telling you that something you're about to do is stupid, I can see going whatever. But if a lot of people are telling you this? And almost all of them ( Read more... )

Mike and I have had some discussions about future children which has made me want to spend the next few months really getting the house and our lifestyle in order. Part of it is our actual home--we have a small house so I need to do some weeding out and reorganizing so that we can have another bebeh without Mike giving up his office and without me ( Read more... )

So. I have decided that I must be doing a good job with my crafts and sewing. I showed Mike a new pattern I am buying and he was all, "that's cool!" No questions of how much or why or anything. It's been like that for a couple of months but it's an impressive thing from the guy who asked me not to get him an anniversary gift because we're about to ( Read more... )

Family blog posts!What do you get a toddler who has a bzillion toys and books? Like, Autumn doesn't have a ton of stuff because I try to clearinghouse things every couple of months. Well...I'd rather her not have anymore stuffed animals unless it really means something (take the Madeleine from Michelle for example, that doll has been carried across ( Read more... )

I am a happy camper. Mike thinks he wants to give the church we'd been going to another try. I really thought the big reason we didn't really click with anyone was because he just didn't want to make any friends. So I'm hoping that now that we've visited around and not found anything in our neighborhood, we'll really be able to connect at our old ( Read more... )

I win non-grudge-holder of the year. I called and left a message for my sister asking if she wanted me to send my maternity clothes to her through my mom so she could go through them. Although I'm waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more, ah, let's call it "curvy" or "muscular" than my sister, she's probably the only person I know, except maybe Michelle, who ( Read more... )
