Funny Twilight Video

My husband showed me this video after dinner tonight. I love how this was edited!! After I watched it, my husband and I had this conversation:

Husband: He looks good there.
Me: Huh?
Husband: Robert. He looks good.
Me: Uh...
Husband: You know? All pale and stuff? He looks really good.
Me: Okaaaaaaaaaay...

LOL. I have no idea what that was about. Except my husband knows how much I love Robert, so maybe he can finally see why I dig Robert so much, and he agrees with me on the hotness? Maybe...

I don't know about the rest of you ladies, but my husband really does support me and my crushes. I tend to go through phases, and he never fails to encourage me - in a healthy way, of course.

Drive Like Cullens Podcast

I've been listening to Drive Like Cullens podcast thanks to Lee Ann. It's a lot better than some of the other Twilight podcasts I've attempted to listen to. It's pretty easy to listen to and follow.

I must take this time to announce that I'm not fond of IPods. Maybe I should say that I don't care about them, or care if you have one, because they just don't impress me. I have a Sansa Fuze that I just love. My daughter has a Sansa Clip. My son has an older model Sansa. And my husband has a Zune (that we can't seem to fill up!!). To me, IPod is just a name brand, and I've never heard anything about it that impresses me all that much. Which is why I have my Fuze.

So I made something yesterday to fit an MP3 player in. It even has a little pocket for your headphones!! And a velcro closure so your stuff doesn't fall out. And it's Robert Pattinson. What more could you ask for????

Great book, not so great book, and 2 great movies...



I read reviews about 'Suzanne's Diary For Nicholas' and it was described as an emotional tear-jerker. That much is true - I was crying FOR IT TO END!!! The book itself was interesting, but I grew so tired of reading 'My dear sweet wonderful beautiful baby boy' and 'Darling Schmoopy Poopy' blah blah blah on and on with the endearments every other sentence. I get it. No need to beat me over the head with it. The diary is written to your son, whom you love very much. It just seems like half the book was spent describing "How much do I love thee? Let me count the ways..." The book was a quick read, a little over 2 hours, so maybe I didn't like it because of the love overload.

BUT, to regain my love of books, I picked up my copy of Romeo and Juliet. Can't go wrong with that one!! This is my second copy of this version of the book. I originally had this when I was much (much) younger. I think it was 'lost' during one of our moves by my husband who doesn't understand why anyone would read a book, much less why anyone would read a book more than once. I liked this version when I was younger because it has notes in the back of the book to explain words and phrases that are difficult to understand.



I recently watched 'Jane Eyre' and 'Sense and Sensibility'. These are the latest versions made by the BBC and released in late 2007 I believe. Both wonderful and highly recommended!!! You won't be disappointed.

To Wholesale!!!



I completed another custom wholesale order. And now I have begun working on another custom wholesale order. Mini pouches this time. Then I have to duplicate the order that is pictured here. Whew!!

The kids are home with me for summer, and I want to spend time with them doing fun things, but they would rather hang out and play with their friends. At least until they deem themselves 'bored' and the only cure is to take them out and spend money on them. They don't want to DO anything, they just want me to spend money on them. Can't we do something fun that doesn't require spending tons of money?????

Look How Pretty He Is...



My handsome boy. Okay, wait a second. That's what I call my son. I'll just call him handsome and stop there. If you want him, you can find him HERE in my Etsy shop.

I'll try to keep making and listing things a little at a time. I am busy working on a semi large custom order, a smaller custom order, and waiting on confirmation for another semi large custom order. So now you know how I am spending my summer vacation.
