Listing some new stuff.....

Listing some new items for the new year! Wishing you all a happy and healthy 2010!

Hello, It's me again....

Hello All...

Gosh its been a l-o-n-g time. We moved a couple months ago. Saying it has been hectic is an understatement. Moving with twins...well...that is a whole other story.

Here are my top 10 pieces of advice if you are planning on moving:

1) Don't
2) Nothing can be fixed "easily" or "quickly"
3) "A little paint" does not fix anything at all
4) Carpet + untrained dogs of previous owners = DISASTER
5) Do NOT move right at the beginning of the holidays
6) Do NOT move until your children are old enough to move out of the house themselves
7) Spy on the neighbors before buying (I am convinced my neighbor is a serial
killer: more on that later)
8) No, you can't fix problems with the flooring by just "Putting a rug over it"
9) No, it is not easy to remove a yard full of half dead plants. Just because they
are dead does not mean they come out of the ground any easier!
10) No, you will not be able to "squeeze" that piece of furniture in the spot that is a good 10 inches too small. Even if you REALLY want to put it there.

Trust me...I have learned the hard way ;)

But I am back!

Twilight

Living out my Twilight obsession in my new jewelry ;)

New Cabochons Just In!

Brand new cabochons! Just listed in my shop. I love Hello Kitty!

How can this be?

I cleaned the house from top to bottom. I mean it was CLEAN. Everything put away, vacuumed, dusted, laundry done...the whole deal. In the span of two short evening hours my twins managed to do this. I have nothing left to say. I will now let the pictures speak for themselves. Enjoy....

The Snail Whisperer

My little guy loves snails. He is your typical little boy..all dirt, bugs, and snails. I fondly refer to him as "The Snail Whisperer". I think that is hysterical. He, of course, has no idea what I am talking about.

Anyhow...we have a NO SNAIL rule in the house. And I thought this was actually one rule that was followed. Unfortunately today I found out that is certainly not the case.

After deciding to do a bit of deep cleaning in the kids rooms...I pulled out a bin from under my little boys bed. Amid what must be 400 lego pieces were literally 30 snails. Some dried up. Some not. Some wishing they were. After fighting an urge to run screaming from the room I gathered the bin, closed my eyes, and practically fell down the stairs trying to get this snail death box out of my house.

After a firm discussion with my little culprit we went back upstairs where he showed me two more hiding spots for his "pets". Luckily, these looked a little better and we released them to "go find their mommies".

Ahhh...little boys. Never a dull moment.
