Post soul-ectomy

Hmmm.  I don't even know where to begin.  I'm still recovery from my soulectomy.

In November:
Threw hubby a surprise party:

Went to AZ:

To one of these:

Hung out with these crazy awesome people:


And then flew home and BAM it was December:

Partied with them:

Celebrated this (Not my house, but this one did have 27 inflatables):

Celebrated seven years of this:


And Shabam--January:

Been doing a lot of this (still don't look like that):

Hubby started new school.  Online for now.  (We love having him home, when we can actually see him.  Keeping the kids/myself out of his hair = not so fun).
  

Trying to redecorate cheaply with Christmas dough:

Sewing drop cloth pillows

 Potterybarn inspired pillow, I love how this one came out :)

 A ruffle pillow

 Painted this and hated it, repainted it multiple times

 Used freezer paper to make stencils for pillows

 Spray painted said pillows...

 Hubby showing me up on the sewing machine

I think my painting/pillows came out pretty good (FINALLY):

Caught up with old friends:

Spend 95% of my time hanging out with these Two Crazy Pigs:
 This has been the only snow store of the year... and the kiddo was pretty excited.  What? You can't see the snow?  Yeah that's cause it snowed half a teaspoon. She still went to play in it though.  :)




And making a plan to make some moola, and save what we've got--per the staying on a budget goal.  Considering entering the 7th level of hell and substitute teaching one day a week.  

Maybe someday I won't feel so crazy, and I'll actually start writing again (crossing my fingers I can make time tonight before I curl up into a ball and fall asleep).

so mad so mad

I'm really ticked.
I just hate people.
In general.  Yes you.  All of you.
And my messy house.
And the weather.
And my hair.
And that I'm slowly falling down the nano slope.
And every book, word, or sentence I've ever written.
And fake cheerful, because it sucks.
And attempting to do nice things for people.
Hate. Hate. Hate. Hate.

And do you  know what I hate the most.

The fact that I wouldn't hate everything in the entire world if I could just get a decent night's sleep round here.

I seriously can't buckle down...

Total word count for today:  0

Gah.  I still have all 1667 words to write.  I wrote better yesterday...even when there was an earthquake, flooding, and tornados going on in the area.  I just saw this on facebook (yeah, I know, I'm almost never on facebook--such is my procrastination this evening).



Totally made my day.

My nano face...

I JUST REALIZED I'M SUPPOSED TO BE UP TO 10000 WORDS MANANA... YIKES.

Oh crap.  

Waaaaah!

Okay, hee hoo*, back to work.

*That would be me breathing.

Captain non-committal and Nanowrimo


Okay so I hemmed and hawed about doing Nanowrimo...but I'm doing it.  And if tomorrow I decide not to... well I'm okay with that too.

I'm pretty much way excited about my idea and I'm totally fine with Parasites marinating another month.

So this may be a very spotty blogging month...but I'm okay with that too!

Good luck to all you nanoers...see ya when I see ya.

Pinkalicious Costume!!

Halloween hop... continued:

We had a Halloween party at church today, so, yay! I have pictures of my costume :) I'm not sure I'll have the energy to pull this off again...actually I'm about 99.9% sure this was it, but I might wear the tutu for the real day...and the pink shirt, because why not?

Pinkalicious, Pascal, Rapunzel.  
Pascal couldn't be bothered to look at the camera 
when there was a pink tutu to be eaten... 

One of my sisters looking pretty saucy.

Lets get these kids on home!  It's way past bedtime--8:30. Holy cow, I know! 

That's my other Sis as Flo, from Progressive :)

sooo pink


 Happy Trunk or Treat :)

Halloween Hop


Yay!  I LOVE Halloween.  Not all the creepster stuff, but dressing up, carving pumpkins, baking seeds, eating corn-dogs--because you HAVE to eat corn-dogs on Halloween, caramel apples, and candy--or really CHOCOLATE, because who has time for that fruity crap.

My favorite monster movie (okay confession, I HATE all things scary.  I don't do haunted houses or scary movies) so therefore, I'm going with:

La belle et la bete 



And here is some Halloween through the years...see if you can guess all of them. 







This year I'm going as... here's a hint:









I so want a cupcake right now.








PINKALICIOUS! 

You'll have to come back and see my costume of awesomeness... I'm sooo excited.
