This is a place where "the Mommy" can blog about "the Boys"... they outnumber her 3-to-1, so she needs to be able to vent about them somewhere. 

And there is a plan to have more kids in the future, so maybe in 2012 the numbers will even out a little more, looking like a full count (them being the 3 balls lol), or with Mommy's luck it'll just put her further behind.

Oh and expect some scrappy stuff too.

Happy Humpday!!

Well, I realize I may be a little late on the Humpday-wishes... There's only 2 1/2 more hours left of Wednesday. But this is the first time today that I can actually sit and do... well, nothing :)

I got some vases today from Ross'. I <3 Ross' for home stuff. 5 beautiful vases in 4 different colors, and the best part was that they were all on clearance :) So now I have larger homes for ribbons and buttons. Still debating on whether I want to just dump all the buttons from the same color family on in there or sort them in little baggies. I think my craftily-anal self will sort them. Funny how I only get crazy like that with craft stuff. If I could be like that with the rest of the house, hey, I'd run a pretty nice household!!

So, to update the list that I posted what, 2 weeks ago, here's what we accomplished:

- Set up the curtain-rods and curtains in our bedroom.
- Set up the compooper speakers for J's compooper.
- Fully vacuum our bedroom. (as opposed to in parts like we've been doing)
- Wet vac/shampoo our carpet.
- Get the craft room back in order.

4 1/2 outta 6 ain't too bad in my head.

And well, the craft room is in better shape, not so much in order. But I'll take what I can get. I just realized that the reason that it's so messy down there is because there's just too much CRAP. But I'm doing well with using it up... My mom thinks swaps are a waste of time and don't make sense, but luckily, J gets me. =o) He sees my stash being pared down little by little, and he knows that I'm having a blast doing what I do so that's alright with him. And plus, he says that a lot of the stuff that comes back is so nice, I need to CASE it to give to friends or sell at craft shows. I think it would fall under the category of RESEARCH.

Next Rubberstamp and Scrapbooking Expo is Saturday, 02-09!! Hope to see you there with TONS of THICKERS, a selection of American Crafts Modern (they only come in D-Ring) and Linen (both Post-Bound and D-Ring), FOUR new Pebbles Inc. Scrapbookits, and more!!!

=o) kel
