InstaLOVE February 26, 2012

Instagram = my latest stalker site.  

Seriously, I have this iPHone and know it has endless capabilities (almost) and yet I use it for looking up pointless GOOGLE images, email, texting and my latest, Instagram.  

 I recently ventured out of my PRIVATE BUBBLE and started to FOLLOW strangers!  One stranger is from France (oh la la nice pixxx), one is from Istanbul, one posts fashion pix, one is from I DON’T KNOW, but writes in arabic, one posts nice clean crisp photos of furniture (mid century mod = my fave), one has twin girls and dresses them all cutesy vintagey;;(damn cat just typed that punctuation) shabby chic, one posts ALL PUGS!!!!  and one lives & posts where I left my heart; HAWAII.  

These strangers/artists provide my daily entertainment.  I don’t really care to keep up on current events.  Everyone running this country & others, are greedy idiots and I don’t really want to know what’s coming… costs are rising.  DUH.  If a bomb is headed this way, not like I can escape it.  I’ll just keep looking @ my IG (instagram) and live my stupid life.

************************************************************

the following are NOT from my list of people I follow.  Just the RANDOMS i’ve come across.

I like this girl's ring.

I turned this pugsofinstagram pic into this comic for my husband, upon paying for his grocery request.

Catching Up… February 18, 2012

I never got to catch up on what we did for Christmas… we made gift card bags here:

http://lostinthereflection.wordpress.com/2011/11/12/look-what-i-did-today/

and here we made birdseed ornaments:

freeze for a few hours. thaw & they'll pop right out. Then go hang them in a tree. Outside. For the birds. Or squirrels.

taaaaa daaaa (still thawing. haven't removed from the metal cookie cutter yet)

thanks to this chic for getting us through:

salt dough ornaments. Years ago, my Uncle Jay (my mother's beloved brother) made salt dough ornaments. Plain Janes, no paint, no color, just some fancy glitter and shellac. They are my mother's most coveted ornaments... those and her mother's bulbs. Soooo this year, I decided to use my grandmother's cookie cutters and Uncle Jay's knack for simplicity and voila. Salt dough ornaments. They sat on the table in this plain state for a while, until we could balance our schedules to apply paint. A household convo one night: my nephew says to my mom, "Mommom. These cookie are hard and I think you messed something up, cuz they taste like salt!" Dumbass ate an ornament!

All painted ! I think we ended up with 37 or 42 ornaments & 12 BIG santas

PLEASE! Locate these in Target & feel them. Must be 2" worth of padding there. My husband said, "damn. if you got that home after a night of drinking, that'd be disappointing."

NO MO' COLD SEAT@!!! I'll take the cold seat over this terry cloth toilet seat cover ANYDAY.

Acceptable Barbie. She's okay in my book.

Last time I buy Wal Mart skibbies. I didnt feel like going to Vikki's Secret and just settled on wally world. GOOD FREAKING LAWRD! LOOK HOW BIG THEY ARE!!!!!!!!

 

I would like to extend my thanks to handpecked, for allowing me to die happy. I didn't do the tape method. THis is straight up hand drawn @ the crack o'dawn. It's the correct medium that allowed me to get this effect. Without your vid, I wouldve been still yearning in the dark =) P.S. I didnt purchase the $$$sephora. I found $3 make-ups. same stuff. blam.

Who’s that?  You>> (pointing to photos)

she counts when we climb stairs.  I can be @  a red traffic light and when it turns green she says, “GO” and when it’s red she says, “Stop!”

She says, “Isaac, where are you?” and “I’m gonna get you” and “BYES.  SEE YA LATER” and “I LOVE YOU”, though YOU wouldn’t understand what she’s saying exactly.  

OH!  and the biggest kick to my gut?  She mocks me to a T.  She says, “I KNOWWWWWWW” in my voice and all.  INSANE.  It’s like having a parrot.

She’s telling us when she’s pee peed, which covers both #1 & #2.  Potty training is right around the corner!  Or so I hope =)

My mom told her to smile. This is her best effort.
