is it a new year already?

man. i feel like i’m in one of those “life comes at you fast” commercials…

so, christmas was good. there was some of this:

and lots of this:

and i got one of these:

with some of this:

so my household will be producing some of this:

look! we made that!! yay us!

…there’s something else Tom can imagine me sitting in a corner doing, hee!i hope everyone’s holidays were wonderful. :)

always SOMEONE getting their hair cut over here…

only MOSTLY is it me.

fun, right? i like it. i really like how the gal styled it, i may need to go back every morning…although all she did was put some goop in it and mess it up. i’m pretty sure i’ll mess it up wrong.

anyway, sometimes it’s Feefee that gets the haircut.

note the pretty purple bow.

she likes it…can’t you tell? HAH! and you know who liked it more?? Bella.

I think maybe she didn’t recognize her with all her fur gone. But now, Bella enjoys chasing the pouf on the end of her tail. Poor Feef.

She’s back to her old, crotchety self now though – don’t you worry.

Leave A Tender Moment Alone

oops…

here she is attacking the crocheted bunny i gave her to cuddle with when we first got her. she prefers to gnaw on it and kick the crap out of it.

hellooooo, what’s this??

shot of boy so you don’t think i ignore him…you know, not completely anyway! ;-)

and the newest items to be crafted:
another dish “sponge” (i don’t know why the top picture came out so pink…the bottom one is more true to color). and yes, it IS time to cut the nails. i can barely type anything anymore!
AAAAAAAAAND…a reusable swiffer duster cover!
it wasn’t until i was finished that i realized the resemblance to Ronald McDonald. which actually is pretty horrifying…yet another reason not to dust. but anyway, the PATTERN is a success, even if the yarn choice is a little creepy.

and um….speaking of creepy.

THIS IS WHY I DO NOT EMPTY OUT THE SKIMMER BASKETS!!!
ETA: That is a QUARTER, people!

ohmygah-ohmygah-ohmygah-ohmygah-ohmygah-ohmygah-ohmygah.

EW!!!!!!

what the HELL is that thing?! seriously.

seriously.

seriously.

that is just sick and foul and wrong and those should not exist. are you SEEING how big that thing is?? it’s like four inches long!! BUGS SHOULD NOT BE FOUR INCHES LONG! especially ones that in any way resemble cockroaches. and are in my pool.

ack! bleah! geck! argh! spit! gag! wretch!

*shudder*

I’m shameless

when it comes to loving you…

(i bet a lot of you didn’t know that was his song, not his song)

more kitten pics:

here she is getting into brad’s briefcase
and another one of boy and kitten asleep on the couch…awwwwww.
and here’s one of Feefee tolerating her – can’t you see the love in her eyes?
and so you don’t think i take more pictures of my cats than my kid, here’s a couple shots of the boy:

i went to Atlanta this month and saw my mom, my aunt, my cousins, my grandma, and JAMIE! i was there over mother’s day, so i made bracelets for my cousin, mom, and aunt. I also made some cute, cute little pink cotton slippers for my grandma, but i forgot to take pictures of them, what?? i know. i even made them non-stick by putting puff paint dots on the soles of them! (here’s where Tom is thoroughly impressed with me, hee.)

my cousin’s:
my mom’s:my aunt’s (this one is different than others i’ve done; it is a twisted, triple-strand):
sorry i haven’t had much to say around here lately. i’ve been busy with bday celebrations and trips and more bday celebrations. we’ve got the annual Mark celebration coming up this weekend…so i’m sure there will be much posting about food in the near future. stay tuned.
