Crazy Crafter

Yep, that's me. I know you don't believe it. But, it's very true. I'm obsessed (I'm sure that's believable)! It started by looking around online for Christmas gifts. Looking for something specific. And then I realized I could make everything I kept seeing. I didn't know what I was doing. I thought I'd just experiment. And then the ideas came flooding into my head. And then I crafted my first Christmas gift and was so pleased I couldn't...can't...stop.

Last Saturday morning I was at Hobby Lobby right when the doors opened. Two hours later, P-Dub met me at Hobby Lobby so we could do other shopping. He took one look at me and started laughing. Apparently I was sweaty and covered in glitter. In fact...he thinks it's hilarious that I've been covered in glitter ever since. Everything is covered in glitter.

After a few mishaps, I've become really good at this. I don't think I will ever stop. Maybe I'll end up opening my own business. Who knows! If anything, it's the first thing I've enjoyed doing in a long time!

P-Dub told me I also talked about crafting in my sleep. I can't tell if he still thinks it's funny or if he's getting annoyed. Everything I see I think about using for my new "craft".

Pictures to come...

Am I Going To Die? I just got stung for the first time ever by a wasp . . . So far so good . . . I can still breathe, I haven't swelled up like a balloon, yet . . . But it hurts and itches like crazy!!! It's almost the end of the semester and I am completely swamped! Two projects, two papers, and three finals, all in the next 3 weeks . . . Somehow I'll handle it. I've actually all of sudden "woken up" where school is concerned. I've been in such a daze for like the last 7 or 8 months. The AOC has changed my life as I knew it . . . in good and bad ways!!! Bad because he takes up too much of my thoughts . . . and I need all the brain capacity that I can get!!! Somehow, after years of barely even talking to anyone at work, and only a couple of years of actually being a little more friendly with my co-workers, I seem to have been sucked up in "office politics" and I HATE it! I used to really like going to work . . . now I just want to quit!! It still...
Time to Share? I have a huge crush. I have a huge crush on a man I've never met in person. I have a huge crush on a man who does things that are very cool. Yesterday in the mail I got the book that he sent me...the book that he wrote...a book about all of his travels and adventures. The more I read this book, the less confident I start to feel about this being a possible "match". I have no idea what I can offer this older, more sophisticated, more worldly man. The biggest adventures in my life are grappling with 18-year old freshmen for a parking space at school, finishing a set of push-ups and pull-ups at the gym, or wrestling my daughter to the ground for a bath. Maybe I can teach him all about Sponge-Bob Square Pants? This is again one of those times where things seem too good to be true. The emails we send back and forth would suggest that there is a great interest and curiosity on both sides, and that something really good could possibly come from this!!! His ...
