February Bead Journal project – I run into a hitch

Share

The Widget Corporate offices: There’s several things working this month. One is we’re totally swamped at work (the the picture of my “life” above). And two, is that I wasn’t “feeling” the second doll I made.

I think someone on the Bead Journal blog mentioned that it’s hard to do a “journal” of something that [...]

Our Valentines Story – Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!

Share

I hear that there is snow almost nationwide today – so I thought I would warm you up with our own Valentines Day story. Unique in that Roger and I are fairly pragmatic people – well not completely (as you’re about to hear). I just posted this photo to Facebook – everyone is posting [...]

Progress, but nothing to photograph

Share

So, I’ve washed out my Brazilian embroidery pieces and now have to quilt the inside of the pockets (wish me luck on that one).

Then, I’m in the home stretch on my crewel piece – and I haven’t picked up my February spirit doll at all.

So, then work, work, work. ugh.

Really.

Sharing every little minute detail of my life

Furthermore, if you “edit” like I tend to – are we just putting out an image that’s perfect and unattainable for most [...]

Don’t tell Matey Moo – Gumby’s dead.

Share

My son (7 years) owns the entire Gumby collection: Today Art Clokey, the creator of Gumbey, died. So, I said to my husband “should I tell Matey Moo”. “No” he said. So, why do I feel weird. It’s going to be really sad for him, but isn’t this part of life that people who create [...]

3 ways to repair kids pants

Share

I’m gaining fast knowledge of kids pants repair. My kids have a deep love (and ability) to rip holes in all their pants. On top of that, Missy C is SKINNY and so pants that are WAY too short, still fit around her waist. So, here’s 3 different repairs to some beloved pants:

First, I’ve [...]

Cool artsy video

Share

Sincy my husband and Matey Moo are working hard today on a “movie” with toys and such, I’m interested in stop motion – so here’s a cool one I found via Yahoo this morning:

Last look at Christmas

Share

Now this picture has a story: These are our 3 cats – “Harry”, “Frasier” and “Reggie” – I came up on this “reindeer costume” (there are feet too, but imagine getting them onto a cat!) at Target while shopping for last minute stocking stuffers.

The joke immediately became that there was no picture of a [...]
