I want a pillow pet!! I know you've seen these cute & fluffy little creations. I want the penguin, He's adorable! I've been so busy the past few weeks, by the time i get home i cant wait to go to bed. Ali ( our lead ) had a cortisone shot today because she has a herniated disc in her back. ( Get better soon Ali! ) I wanted to get in on the cupcake challenge ( hosted by Hoosier Homemade ) next tuesday ( who doesn't love cupcakes?! ) but i think i'll have to work 8-4 so by the time i get home it'll be 7pm before my cupcakes are done. :o( I might make them on Monday night & do the post Tuesday afternoon. Anyone else watch the cupcake wars? It comes on the food network every Tuesday night. You should get into it, if ya like cakes & challenges. They have all kinds of weird ( but delicious )ingredients on the fly. These people do have talent.

Im a little upset, I've had my ipod touch for about 6 months & the past few days ive taken it off the charger into my purse & to work. ( no good readio on in the morning & i hate commericals ) By the time i get off work & im ready to jam out...it's dead! Has anyone else had this problem? Could it be because we have wifi at work & it's trying to connect all day or is there something bigger?

Today is the only day i've had off work in a little over a week! I've been a little busy today though, but now it's time to slow down. For the next few ( 2 at least ) days i'll be working 8-4. I gave my giveaway packages to my mom to send off yesterday. She dropped by today & i found them in her car! Now the P.O is closed & i have to work & wont get to it tomrrow either. GAHH!

I was out today so i got some oil ( for the sewing machine ), fabric, zippers, & thread. I plan to calm down & relax. So i'll be doing some crafty sewing in the next few days. It's back to school so i'll be doing some pencil pouches. I'll also be adding a lot of unique & custom designs. It's time to get back into it. I love it & i miss it.

------Blog Spotlights of The Week-----

1.) Debbie from Lucas's Journey with Sensory Processing Disorder writes: "My name is Debbie, I am a SAHM and live in NJ with my husband and my two beautiful boys sent from heaven, Charlie and Lucas. I started my blog, Lucas's Journey w/SPD, in May because I felt a calling to write about our journey with Lucas. I was overwhelmed by the struggles that we went through getting a proper diagnosis and care for Lucas for the first 18 months of his life. I almost felt as if only one person in the world could read our blog and not have to go through the same thing we did, it would make it all worth it. I've met so many wonderful people since starting our blog and to meet so many different people that SPD has affected it has made my mission even stronger to bring awareness to SPD."

2.) Veronika from Fabulous Daily Deals writes: "Hello I am Veronika and my blog Fabulous Daily Deals was created when I was pregnant with my daughter who is 5 months old now. I knew there had to be a way to get all my baby stuff without paying the shelf price! Now I consider myself a pretty hard core couponer and deal finder! I often have people(especially cashiers) ask where I find coupons and deals and it's nice to have my own site to tell them about!"

Monday is here

I don't have to work today so Me & Roo are watching James & The Giant Peach. Everyone was talking about it on Thanksgiving & i wanted to watch it. So i got on the trusty netflix account and found it. Justin wont watch it with me because he doesn't like spider's so it*s just me & Roo while he is at work. We have also been watching Jericho. I didn't like it at first but after a few episodes i can't get enough. Once we finish one I*m like another one another one. Now that the characters are drawn & the plot is a little settled i like it. I went to my brother's house yesterday because he got me a SC Myrtle Beach sticker. Since i can't wait to give gifts i gave him his birthday stuff i got home. Other than that, its a pretty regular day. hehe i wont be surprised if i take a nap soon.

Christmas Is Coming...

Christmas is 25 days away, are you prepared? I*m holding a cyber sale through Monday. As are a lot of people. I*ve done most of my shopping. I*m meeting my brother tomorrow to get my sticker from Myrtle beach & to give him our birthday stuff. Our birthday isn't until Dec. 18th but i can never wait that long. I get so excited when i give gifts. I got him some Newcastle Beer soap. It is his favorite beer so why not right? I also made him an Avendge sevenfold key chain. Mom asked what he wanted & i told her i had no idea, i don't go off what he wants {because i could careless} so i go by whatever screams *KEVIN*. It hasn't steered me wrong yet. I*ve had one of those days where everything is catching up at once so I*ve been in a BLAH mood today. With us being twins naturally he called about 2pm from the beack asking me if everything was ok, i said it was alright & he said i needed to cheer up because i was bringing him down. haha, i hate when that happens. The last time he was in a bad mood i went from so hyper i dont know what to do with myself to boohoo in no time. So i had to call him & tell him the same. My mom thinks its cool but our friends think it's weird. I haven't noticed until the last few days how much i miss mom & dad's house. I feel so comfortable there - raiding the cabinets & falling asleep on the couch listing to the fireplace crackle. Maybe it's just me in my rough patch but i miss "home".

Helping Get To 50,000 Unique Views!

It dawned on me today that Christmas is only 69 days away! I was listening to Bob & The Showgram on G105 this morning on the way to moms house for work. They are trying to get 50,000 unique visits today - if they do they will be giving away 10 designer purses. They*ve been giving away purses for the past few weeks to the 105th caller 3 times a day. They are so funny & brighten my day in the morning. They are so crazy. If you*d like to check out the site you*ll count to help with the 50,000 views. IF they do not hit it today they will try again tomorrow. Since the Fair is here today through the 25th Bob {from the showgram} has posted his "top 10 things to do at the fair" list. It*s all in fun. Justin was talking of going to the fair Saturday or Sunday. There's going to be so many people there though! Last year John, Ashley, Justin & Myself went to the fair & Justin won me Artie. I love care bears so he is perfect!

Today was 87* but tomorrow is supposed to be in the low 60*s for the duration of next week. This weekend i intend to so some Christmas shopping & also i may try to make some new items. I*ve added an item a day everyday this week. I*ve felt so good the past few days because ive gotten more than 6 hours of sleep. I wake up & i want to get up not go back to bed & call it a day. I want to start taking a multivitem....only thing is.. i cant swollow pills. Does anyone know of any vitamins i could take that are chewable or dissolve? :P It's silly i know i just cant do it.

Justin & I are trying to go to Washington in a month or so. ALL the proceeds from this is going into our Washington fund. He asked me where I*d like to go for a little get away & how long I*d want to go for. I*m rather impatient & since i want to go ASAP I told him only for a day. That's a lot of driving but i think it*ll be fun. Usually I*d say the beach, but i can get a tan right here at the pool, plus i dont want to leave Roo ( the chinchilla ) for to long. He*s like my fur baby.

I have a headache so I*m going to hang out & watch cartoons with Roo. Thanks for taking the time to read this & please vote :P
