I had such a great Mothers Day... Joey surprised me with a new little charm on my Mothers Day necklace that he and the kids gave me a couple years ago...a little bird for my Rita Pita...
The kids sang to me at churchwithoutcrying!!! Woohoo!! I also got a long cozy nap with Rita and a last but not least a little gift card to a littlestore....can't wait to buy two whole things there!! lol, but those two things sure will be pretty!

I was blog hopping around 2 months ago and came across a blog. She had her youngest son who was 10 weeks old pass away in January. The words she writes about him and how she feels are amazing! She is a spiritual GIANT. I just visited her blog and she had the most beautiful post about Easter... I had to share it HERE.
You will not have a dry eye watching the film...cuddle your babies after watching.
My hair needs to be done soooo bad... The girl that usually does my hair had a baby about a month ago (it already needed to be done back then) so I have been waiting patiently for her to get back in the swing of things... and then I found out she's moving back to Utah... on Wednesday... as in this Wednesday.
I spentA LOT of time pinning and then as I was sewing I realized the chenille hasA TON of give! So when I finished sewing one side I had all this extra chenille on the bottom!!!! WHAT DO I DO???? Any suggestions?....
Meanwhile I feel like if I shut the door to Rita's room one of these times I'm going to open it and the blanket will *magically* be done..... Where is myElder Wand with the unicorn hair in it when I need it???... I would even settle for Mrs. Weasley to help my out...
I NEED to finish Rita's room! Today I'm working on making this a blanket (to which you're saying, "No you're not! You're blogging!", to which I say, "Layoff!"). I've already made a crib skirt out of some of it(See! I do get stuff done eventually!)..... Her room will be cute one day...
...and now Megan Fox can pout her little ( and by little I mean huge) lips and go back from whence she came! Next time she wears a pony it's her copying me! So there! :p
I went to a new nail salon to get a pedi this past Wednesday. I usually LOVE a good pedi, but this one was different.
The girl giving it spoke perfect American English.
weird.
I didn't even know how to react or what to say. She did a good job, but I missed hearing their language and wondering what they were saying. I missed the usual tap on the leg when it's time to put back in the water and bring the other leg up. Getting a pedi has now become totally associated with an asian girl giving me one...and I think next time I'll go to my old place.
When I went away to college I discovered that I am HORRIBLE at time management. I have never resolved this issue...and I don't plan on it now. So hears to blogging...which will waste yet even more TIME. Something I clearly need more of and that I'm really good at wasting what I do have. Yay!
