Fluff & Stuff

May 10, 2006 |

I am in a VERY sleepy fog today. I’m sure it’s just a combination of staying up too late and the dark, ominous looking sky in the distance this morning.

The View Out My Front Door

I knew I was in trouble when I spent much longer than usual reading the entertainment news. See every morning after Jeff leaves for work, I fire up my laptop so I can get a post written. It’s the best time of day for me as the writing will be uninterrupted. But I’m usually so groggy at first that I start up my IM programs and read the little celebrity news blurbs until I can feel the fluff warming my brain. Then things start to clarify and ideas and words are generated. Not today though people. I know way more about Brittany Spears than I care to - ugh!

So today I’ll just share a little fluff of my own. With pictures! Aren’t you glad you stopped in? The most important thing in our house right now is the cute little baby kitten. He found his purr motor last night and every time you touch him know he starts going. And going. The coolest observation Jeff made about getting Olivia a kitten? “She really feels special since we got her that kitten.” Worth it. Totally. And see the picture below? I wouldn’t trade that for anything in the world.

I think she’s pretty happy with us too. Yesterday she brought us home the paper below. Makes me feel like we are so doing things right. Forgive me while I break my arm patting myself on the back. lol

Olivia's School Paper

It reads “I love you Mom and Dad xoxoxoxoxox and I will owes (always) love you. and you love me forevre and ever.” I think we done good. No?

The last little bit I will share today happened when I had to run out to the store last night. I had on a necklace and earrings I had made for myself a few weeks back. The clerk that rang up my sale complimented me on them and went on and on about how much she liked them. When I told her I made them she asked if I sold jewelry and I told her I didn’t but I had been thinking of it. She said if I decided to I should come back and see her and show her what I have - she would totally buy stuff from me. Woot!! So I opened an account at www.etsy.com last night and I think I’m going to list some jewelry there today. Nothing to lose right? Here’s what I was wearing last night

Frog Necklace and Earrings

Nothing special - just a casual set. With running a daycare I am in jeans and t-shirts most of the time so I wanted some jewelry I could wear regularly that wouldn’t look too dressy for what I was wearing. I made a necklace like mine for my stepdaughter too that has a butterfly charm and red stones. She wears it every time I see her in casual clothes. She wears the Blue & Silver Set when she’s going out.

That’s it for me. I need to get off my butt and get going anyway before my house implodes from neglect. Have a great day!

    Aww, yes, getting the kitty was totally worth it! And you should be very proud of her. What a sweetie! Did she give her a name?

    And don’t feel bad, I get US Weekly and I am always up on all the latest celebrity stuff too. LOL

    If it wouldn’t turn into a big fat lazy cat, that tore the stuffins out of our furniture I’d get another kitten in a heart beat. lol They are so cute.

    Loved all the pics! Thanks for sharing and yes I do think you’re doing something right!
