What a Wednesday!

Today was a lazy (but productive... craft wise!) day. I woke up and immediately started making fabric roses. Why? Why not! I've got some wonderful ideas in mind for these little things! I made 15 of them today (and boy are my fingers hurting!) and I made 8 the other night. I also made some organza flowers, but they didnt turn out exactly as cool. I made a run to WalMart and then back to the crafting. So lame! haha

I received some penpal packages, too! I received an adorable card, and a package from Stacey.. the package was so great! So spot on! She really gets me :P It had a cute floral apron, an anchor pin, a sweet pink bow ring, sunflower mini-pot, a shark magnet (!!!!!), a cute little heart shaped chew toy for georgia, gorgeous colored nail polish, an adorable floral pattern make-up-ish bag and a sweet note! She's the best! Then I received a huge box from Caitlin! She sent me some adorable fabrics, a thirfted dress, and some of the cutest jewelry ever (and a sweet card!) You guys really spoil me and it means so so so SO much, especially knowing where your hearts are at with it. I've started to rebuild my fabric and craft collection since I was so devastated to lose it.

Seriously! Thank you so much, guys! I will have packages out to everyone by the end of the week I hope! (Including Stacey, Caitlin, Aoife, Hannah, Susannah, etc!) Sorry for the delay, but I got my sewing machine fixed so I wanted to send everyone something handmade!

I made vegan sloppy joes for dinner as Mike got home and we just settled in and watched tv for most of the night (I made more floral roses, too). Tomorrow I have to be in Franklin at 11am for the FEMA inspector to come by what used to be my house and determine what kind of federal aid I'll be receiving (Lord knows it'd be heavensent at this point!). Also, I have to lug Baby G with me as her hairloss as gotten even more severe and she spent the entire day throwing up and having diarrhea (gross, i know!) but she's my baby and I need to take care of her. We're really really starting to worry. Keep your fingers crossed everything goes well! I'm sure they'll run some tests on her tomorrow.

The clock is ticking for my move to NYC. Just two weeks! I need to acquire and pack so much! This weekend is my last weekend at work (huzzah!) and we have Toby (double huzzah!) so I'm excited.

Earlier this week (Monday) I was going to do a "A Day in My Life" style post but of course I left my Nikon battery at home. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow? Not that anything exciting really happens but it'll push me to actually get dressed and to DO something with myself. It'll be a lot of driving and such tomorrow anyhow, but still! We'll see!

I hope you're all having a glorious week thus far! Thanks for being awesome blog readers!
