cute story time..

this one's a lil' extra for all u kid lovin' bloggers..

it's hailing here right now.. thundering, lightning, raining... AND hailing.

interesting.

sO, j-boy #3 comes to me and says, "Mommy, i FEEL the lightning in my window."

sO naturally i wanna know what lightning FEELS like.. so i asked him.

his answer, "it FEELS like nothing."

heh heh.. eh heh.

i LOVE the age when the senses are all discombobulated..

(and i LOVE the word discombobulated)

my favorite example of this **discombobulation** EVER is from this convo..

same kid.. different moment.

someone leaves the bathroom.. j-boy #3 responds when he goes into the same bathroom..

"it smells HOT in here."

i STILL don't know what he meant by that, but i probably shouldn't WANT to know either.. O_o

i hope your tomorrow FEELS wonderfully yummy. =)

GAP

wow.. this one is unbelievable.

i hafta admit, i would've never seen this one comin' in a million years. & i'm sure i'm not the only one to feel this way.

some things just feel right..

other things just give you the impression of someone trying a lil' too hard..

i'm honestly disappointed.. but, who am i?? these people have been through HOW MANY years of successful business venture?

nuff said.

sO, although almost 90 percent of people dislike the new logo, i'm sure GAP will survive..

unlike the lil' green alien girl.. lol

i need this!!!

THIS pillow is awesome.. i HAVE to wake up earlier..

look at me. it's 1:00 in the morning & i need to wake up in a few hours to homeschool my kids.

BUY me a pillow. it's for a good cause. LOL!!

RED sails to Capri..

a wonderfully told story of life on the island of Capri in Italy..

& what a delight to finish it today with my kids only to discover that at least in part it is a true place.. with some true stuff happenin' in there!

^_^

my heart is tickled.. lol

here's a pic of the *special* place in the book that got me googling..

the BLUE grotto!! :)

i'm blown away.. great story.. i recommend it. it's by Ann Weil.

new recipe book..

cute, huh?

i have lots of recipes that i'm attracted to.. that i'd like to make & haven't yet tried, cuz their on lil' scraps of paper tucked away in my cupboard.

BUT.. if i had this lil' recipe nook book, i'm sure i'd be alright.

;-)

dancing in the minefields..

new video... i tell my single friends that marriage is not all rosy, unless of course you include the thorns..

but the rosy parts can be VERY flowery indeed.. marriage is quite enjoyable.

sO, here's a sweet song.. to echo that thought. ;-)

enjoy.

=)

*stress*

yea.. i have two new stressful undertakings to add to my already sO busy life.

two NEW dresses for friends.. one is back for a second go-round! i'm happy about them, but realizing with my schedule that i'm craZy for saying yes.

i look forward to working on projects like these, though..

cutest lil' animillows! (i made that up..LOL)

a too cute floral purse!

a cute lil' giraffe friend who needs a new photo opp AND some added color.. (but still cute)

it definitely gives me sumthin to aim for. this year it's handmade Christmas gifts again..

i've done some VERY needful de-cluttering & still there's LOTS to be done, but i guess what i'm *trying* to say is that i hafta remember that STRESSED backwards is DESSERTS!!

yup. desserts.

sO, i'm *probably* gunna need a lot to make up for all of the stress goin' on in my life right now.

;-)

then i'll have to find out what FAT is backwards.. hee hee. eh heh.
