Stupid Stupid people drive me NUTS!!!

Well yesterday I was going to post about how incompatant these workers are infront of my house. But as soon as I finished the post......They did it again!!!! Let me explain. See there are these workers and they are putting in a new sewage drain line that runs along with main road. Well thursday they cut my cable line. I called the cable co. just to find out when they came out the other company had actually cut they three other houses in the row also but they had coved the cut wire back up so TWC couldnt find the line. So I have 3 houses jumped off of my house. Well the fixed the wire on thurs night. Friday at 8am no sooner than they started the tractors they cut it agian! TWC came out and fixed it......At 12 they did it again! TWC came out to fix it when they were out here the other company actually cut the main wire that supplies cable to the Ct. I live on. So they fixed that. then at 6pm on Fri the stupid Co. actually cut the MAIN TWC wire...by main i mean the wire that suppies the entire area. Like 300 houses lost their cable and the other company called it quiting time and packed up and went home like they did nothing at all. These ppl are riddicualus! Well i went all weekend with cable then started typing my blog and ......You guessed it.......They cut my wire AGAIN!!!! this is #4 for anyone keeping count. And thats just my wire to my house not to mention everyone elses. Not to mention that on Friday when they went under my road. They didnt even leave a driving space. No one in and no out from my court. this also means NO mail NO access to emergency vehicals NOTHING from 9am- 5pm!!!

When ppl where coming in off work they were actuall driving through the neighbors driveway just to go through another neighbors front yard just to get in.Not to mention they cut like 4 feet into my yard! my nice lovely yard that was given to us as a welcome home gift for DH. Everyday I think this cant possiable be this bad...they just cant be this stupid...then 9am....they cut my wire! So it is 7:30 now so keep fingers crossed I can actually have my Cable today.

Loki & Shadow

My cat likes to play a game called "you cant get me" with my dog Loki. It is so funny cause they will do this for hours. If you open the door....Shadow will disapear with the blink of an eye.

Ever since I started Sewing you have always wanted me to make you a blanket. I made this on the begining of the summer for you, then mailed it to mom who just finished quilting today! So your gonna have to wait to get it in the mail. But that is a picture of it right before i mailed so i'm not sure what it looks like finished but im sure it looks great.

I was gonna be mean and post "the" picture. You know the one with Big hair and blue eye shadow. But i cant find it. So i Stole you pic off your site.

So I want you to know that 30 shouldnt be scary for you because you have acomplished so much and there is only more great things to come! Have a great Birthday!

My newest Creation

Please dont mind the Model's crazy hair. LOL we just took braids down. And before My sis jumps and says i cheated....I will admit....I CHEATED. When i got to looking around at all the sweaters and blankets that i had that i could recycle the yarn for new projects i came across this.

My best friend's mom made this for sis when she was born. And she used it everyday for about two years then like most baby blankets it ended up on the top of the closet for 3 years. But I didnt want to take it apart because it was made just for her and my second mom had put so much time into it. When i was looking for my next project Sis saw a girl in a poncho and said she wanted one then i got an idea. But again felt way to guilty to chop such a beautiful baby blanket. So i called the maker of it ans she laughed and asked if i felt guilty when it was on the top of the closet. She agreed that it would make a great poncho and loved the idea that Sissy could get a couple more years out of the blanket she made. So i cut out the center square and made a hem. Ta-Da its done! And Sis loves it. Best of all ..... Its not sitting in the closet.

Try to catch up

Yeah i know! Everyone is really lucky lots of posts in the same day! Well DD has had a week off work so i havent blogged :( So just trying to play a little catch up. ... I was going to post my last finished project. I saw how to make scruncii's so I thought it would be fun to try one.

I made a strip and then sewn the edges together.

I folded in half around the hair tie sewing as i went. And this was my finished scuncii.

Twists and flips

This is Abby's hair today i think it looked cute and she loved it. I put it in piggies, then divided each piggie in 1/2. and made two twists out of each piggy. I only twisted them half way down. Then i tied both of them up to the base of the piggy and fliped what was left. And i know .... I wasnt going to be a mom that but bows in her hair everyday...But...It just looked to bare so i added two peices of ribbon and made her some bows.











after i took the picture i realized how weird the long strands looked so i took some bobbie pins and tucked them under and amazingly enough this do stayed up all day with little spray.

My first Finished Knitting project!

Well there it is...My scarf. And a lovely model showing it :) Im so glad its done....Sorta now the bummer is i have to wait till payday for more yarn :(. But its all good i have a little left that im playing with to learn new stitches. And found this. I think it is called a cable stitch.
You cant see what i did very well cause i couldnt get a good picture. So i laied it on the book i got it from so you can see that one. In real life mine looked alot like it but just hard to tell cause the yarn.

FRIDAY!!!!!!

Wow where did this week go? Abby told me since its friday all she wanted was a ponytail. Well ponies just seem way to simple anymore and when i gave her a ponytail she went and looked in the mirror and asked why it wasnt puffy and where was the ribbon LOL. So aparently they are getting to simple for her too. So I made it a messy bun and added a ribbon, she was happy. And me too cause it took like a min to do instead of 30.

here is the back. like i said simple simple. We normally do something crazier on fridays and do simple monday's but we'll just flip it around this week :) Have a great weekend everyone!

My Lovely kids!

My kids are great! Its so cute when i do Sissy's hair I have her stand to take a picture and Bub always wants to stand next to her.So this morning I got the pic of her hair then ended up with this one

They are going to be so happy to have each other when they are older they love each other so much! And are always looking out for each other. When Sis gets in trouble Bub will take her time out with just because she is sad. And when Bub doesnt get something he wants Sis will give him her favorite toy to cheer him up. I think im blessed with the GREATEST kids ever! Oh not to mention all my sisters have given me some wonderful Neices and Nephews (like 12 i think) everytime i get a picture of them it cheers me just like it does when i see my own kids they are all so great!

New Hobby

Well this is what i started with it was going to make a large scaf but then i realized it was to large and no matter how hard i worked it seemed like i wasnt getting anywhere. so i started again.

So here i tried again. Made it thinner so when i worked on it i could actually see what i was getting done. Im doing a forward stitch and then a backwards one. (i dont know the whole Knitting language yet) and then about every 20 lines i do one backwards from what it should be giving it these cool looking lines for a pattern. So this is my new project. It seems so much cheaper than when i quilt. So im sure me and knitting are going to be a great match! :)

Simple monday hair

I parted her hair in three sections and french braided each one and tied them off right at the end of the braid. then i braided all three ponies. realy simple took about 5 mins. She was happy cause that meant a little more Spongebob time before school. :)

Halloween costumes

Well since this blog is mostly about sissy's hair we will start with her. i undid her twists from that morning and messed up her hair a little more and it gave her hair a real cute ratted look for a witch.

Add here is my ninja! He is in his "10 sizes to big-modifide costume" but he loves it. He went treating last year but I think this is the first year he got the whole idea of it. After about 3 houses he was a pro. Dragging me and sis to everyhouse he saw with a light on LOL. It was cute everytime sis would start complaining about something (she is such a drama queen) he would SHHH her, and keep on going. They had alot fun this year i hope everyone else did to.
