migraine nation
It’s that time of the year… the time when the weather can’t make up it’s mind and leaves me in a migraine/sinus headache hell for weeks on end. I’ve had an off and on migraine since last weekend. A lot of it has been in my neck which makes me wonder if it’s also stress. Or the way I’m sleeping…

so long 2019
and good riddance! This year has been a doozy. I’m ready to start 2020 on a good note. I did post last week but it was just my year in review, so I gotta dig back and see where I left off. Let’s separate this one into chunks instead of going day by day. 1. SEWING! I’m starting with sewing…

my brain doesn’t work
I swear my brain has just ceased all function since starting to work from home. My days are all mixed up. My weeks are all mixed up. How is Christmas in 2 weeks? WTF. I haven’t bought any presents at all. I haven’t hardly thought about it. What is happening?!?! I am in a constant bubble of confusion. And work…

Merry Chrimas
What a morning it has been! Craziness at work! And what a week it has been! So much to talk about. I’m going to save my Disney trip report (wait, what?!) for another post. This post will be alllllll Christmas. Sunday was kind of a lazy day. We sat around, I recovered from my marathon of an Orlando trip and…

Happy New Year!
GUESS WHAT! My blog is 20 years old now. It’s in college. My earliest blog posts were late 97/early 98 and the oldest post I was able to track down to reupload was from January 8, 1998. I think next week I will do a big post about it for its birthday! So anyway, this weekend was rather lazy. Mostly…

I have gazillion things to post
Wow I didn’t realize it had been so long since I last posted. Almost 2 weeks ago! So where to start… We saw TLJ again on 12/17 with Ash and Gabe. I wore my Hoth Leia vest and boots and wore my hair braided up. I was sitting on a bench in the lobby waiting on Chase and this little…

Christmas time is here again
I had a very nice Christmas break! Though I had planned to get a lot of sewing done and the sewing was very minimal… but sometimes you need a day of laying on the couch doing absolutely nothing, right? I had Friday and Monday both off, and Chase got off early friday and we went up to Jackson to spend…

Christmas tree!
So Thursday night Chase had a meeting but I really wanted to decorate the house for Christmas, so I attempted to do it on my own. Everything kinda went ok, I managed to get the tree up by myself and got all the lights on. And then I decided I hated all the lights so, so much. The problem with…

Christmas pics!
Yay Christmas! Thursday was Christmas Eve day in Jackson. Lunch with present openings! Got Disney gift cards, cute shirts and jacket, a calendar, etc. One of my fav things was this lightsaber (picture over the cool Marvel shirt I got) Ok so it’s not really a lightsaber, it’s a flashlight with an emergency window-breaking hammer on the end for your…

Christmas
So yeah…. with that, Christmas was kind of an unhappy blur. She did get to spend Christmas with us – she got to go everywhere and see everybody and get lots of kisses from the whole family, so that was a blessing in the midst of everything. But, to attempt to focus on more happy stuff…. I got some really…

Christmas, again
Christmas day was fun but exhausting! Woke up at 6:30 because poor Indy had wet her bed. Clean-up and a quick bath ensued – she was ticked off about having to have a bath. We watched the Disney parade and then headed over to my parent’s house for breakfast and gifts, before going to my aunt and uncle’s for a…

Christmas!
Got to leave work an hour and a half early yesterday, so spent a nice night just finishing up presents. Indy was being snoopy as usual: The tree last night… And Chase made these pan smores last night and they were GOOD: Then spent today at my Mema’s house for Christmas! My little American Girl doll-sized dresses thankfully fit. Here’s…

Christmas Cards
More art stuff! Wow! Well a few weeks ago I was trolling around on ebay looking for Disney-themed Christmas Cards to buy. I came across an auction for a 1962 Walt Disney staff Christmas card (which is still on ebay right now if anyone has $55 to spare). I thought it was really cute and sent it to Chase saying,…

Happy Thanksgiving
I had a very nice Thanksgiving break. Chase and I cooked ourselves a mini Thanksgiving dinner for just the two of us that night (after family lunch earlier in the day). It was really good and we still have leftovers after eating on them all weekend. The rest of the weekend was cleaning, errands, and our “Friends-giving” yesterday night which…

Christmas 2012
(edit: this is a guess at what picture was posted here. When I moved from flickr to smugmug in 2015 a lot of my photo data was lost, so I’m only guessing this is our tree photo from 2012. looks about right…?) We did things differently this year! Chase and I opened each others’ presents tonight, instead of Christmas morning.…

christmas 2011 part 2
Christmas is all over. It never really felt like Christmas to start with, it was weird. But, I thought I’d share a few things I got. First I forgot to mention that we got a new bench/trunk for the end of our bed, and a sofa table for the living from my aunt. Both much needed! Here’s my pic of…

Christmas 2011 gifts!
I made a couple of presents this year! First, for my youngest cousin, I made a little reversible dress-up cape. Purple is her favourite colour so I went with a lavender velvet for one side, and sparkley purple for the other. It was a fun little project. Next, I made an ornament out of felt for my aunt, of her…

Christmas 2011 Tree!
Made the decision to go ahead and decorate on Thursday: We haven’t finished painting the living room or finished the new mantle – but I couldn’t wait; if I’d waited on all that to be done we’d probably wouldn’t have put the tree up til February. Ha. So excuse the unfinished mantle, but it’s nice to have the tree next…

Merry Christmas 2010, a week later
Sorry I haven’t posted since last week! Obviously Christmas kept me busy, and then it was back to work. I have the next two days, the weekend, and Monday off. I’m super excited about that. I’m staying home, chilling, doing some artwork, some puzzles and some sewing. So here’s the recap. Friday was Christmas with the bigger side of my…

Christmas time is here again.. artwork!
I’m at my grandmothers 🙂 spent the day reading, napping, and shopping. Did some drawing, too. Here’s some crappy pics from my cellphone. Black Canary and Huntress, i need to clean this one up a little proportion wise, but Id liked to finish it. The classic trio, been reading harry potter all day so felt the urge to doodle them…
