=D

Momma and I are going to a slumber party together. Yay for more time with my best friend!

Oh... I took apart a(n ugly) sweater to make a hat. It's still in progress... I may have enough to make more than one. Who wants one?

Uncle Philip is watching Christopher while we party, so we'll be back some time tomorrow... huzzah!
Other than that, haven't done much today... if anything! Just the sweater... Then ate, showered, and got ready to go. So hopefully tomorrow will be a better post!

Not yet! I refuse!

I'm not going back to LSU until Monday...

I'm very tired, so this will be a short one.... And I had every intention to blog yesterday, but you know how that goes...

So today we went to an awards ceremony at Chris' school! He got all A's and a writing award. His teacher said she could tell his voice in his writing, which is uncommon in a second grader. Got many pics which I will post later.

After that, Momma and I went to Braum's for lunch and then see Not Easily Broken. It was a really good movie! Not your average story line! You should definitely go see it.

We came home so I could pick up the boys and so Momma could pick up Chris... We went to Golden Corral with the family to celebrate Chris' success. It was great! I got to eat a lot of different stuff which was excellent... Saw Miyah! Although she didn't like me... I love her anyway!

And then I had a (slight) breakdown about leaving... So Momma thought leaving Monday would be better, and I certainly agree! The longer I can stay home, the better!

So we're currently surfing the LSU course catalog, then off to bed, I suppose. =D

Oh! I hope you like the new layout! Made it myself, of course! Took forever....

Crochet Galore!

So I've decided to skip the whole "finishing the room" thing and start on my layout...
And then my plans were foiled when I couldn't find the brush I wanted... How odd!
So I guess I'll be finishing up my room... But I'm almost done anyway... =D

Today I did almost absolutely NOTHING! I took Chris school... Fought with him for 20 minutes! Oh man! Now I know how Momma feels!!!! When I got back, though, I went straight to sleep. I was SO exhausted... I've GOT to get to bed earlier... This is driving me INSANE! I've been sleeping my day away instead of doing my work... And I'd love to have a clean room to come back to...whenever that is.

Momma and I called the financial aid office today, talked to a few people, and we got work study!!! So that will help out some! Huzzah! Although I still don't want to go back... =\

Then I finished the frog I was crocheting and gave it to Momma for her Christmas... =] Finally got around to it! She loved it (she said), and I think it's precious. I also made a tennis ball for Chris and something else for a friend for Christmas... I'll post a picture of THAT after I give it to them... But until then, I'll putt up the pictures of the other 3 projects I made this month... That's right! FOUR crocheted projects this month. HAHA! I'm off the hook for now!
And... I wound another ball of yarn... =D Only... 1 or 2 more to go! =D

I did some laundry... About to do some more... And then I'll be done with my room!!!

I can't remember what else I did... Oh yeah... I spelled 'lottery' 'lautory'... But SHHHHHHHH! Don't tell! =D

What a day!

This morning I took Chris to school for Momma. I think I'll be doing that all week, much to my dismay! I was soooo sleepy when I got home! I stayed up for about 3 hours and went back to sleep. I woke up around 2 so I could get some more work done and pick up the neighbor's son and his friend. I'm just full of good deeds! =P I brought the boys here so they could play, and Christopher soon joined. They had a grand old time without me having to lift a finger!

But, while Chris was at school, Momma and I applied for a new loan to pay *****-SU... All we need is a credible cosigner and then we've got it! But it was sooo stressful! Or maybe it was because I was so exhuasted... The websites were running so slow I kept taking breaks to ball (more) yarn, because I knew if I laid down I wouldn't wake up for a while. =P But eventually, I took that blissful nap.

After the other boys left, I started up on my room again... I did the rest of my alundry and now I"m in the process of folding it and putting it away (ugh!)... I've just got one more load to dry and fold and put away and then I'll have been through everything in my wardrobe! I've given so much away already! I don't know how much more I could get rid of... But I'm finding a lot of my stuff is similar to other stuff, so I've been getting rid of those... And I have a lot of PJs, so I'm thinking I'll only keep the sets I have and donate the random big shirts and bottoms... And once that's all done I can decide what to take to LSU and what to leave... I'll definitely bring some nice (dressy) clothes this time, although I'm sure because I will, we'll have nothing to go to... =P

I had dinner with Bunnie today!!!!!!! We met up at Panera Bread and talked and exchanged gifts. It was a really light-hearted bonding session and I thuroughly enjoyed it! I love seeing her! And I've missed her like crazy!!! So after we ate, we got some hot drinks and went to our cars, and I start mine up and decided to wait until she leaves to go, since Rupert needs to warm up, and she says something like "I can't open my door!", and I was like 'ha...okay........' And she comes up to the window and says, "Yeah, I left my lights on!" =P So she went looking for someone to loan her some jumper cables (which no one had... what kind of men live in Mesquite?!!?), so I ended up taking her home, which was great! We got some extra bonding time.

On my way home from The Light House, I got a text from Bethany, my favorite Ivory Spoon! =P So I went over to her house and we talked mostly about her baby ('tis a boy! She will name him Kimberly whether she wants to or not... =P), but about school and her new (real... =P) job. And we had some ice cream and a ton of good laughs! I alway laugh really hard with her! It was sooo much fun! I wish we had more time, but we were both getting sleepy so I decided to head home!

When I got in the car, I noticed a helicopter searching for someone (something?) with its spotlight... So being as nosey as I am, I tried to follow it, and it was pointing into this pond-like lake-thing, and there were around 2 cop cars around it, but their light's weren't flashing... So I didn't know if someone had fell in or if they were looking for someone and just turned off the lights... Who knows... maybe it'll be on the new tomorrow!

Well I'm off to bed! I'm beat and hearing about Mallory's banjo adventures is...great....... =P
(love ya, Mal!)
