Updates
So I haven’t posted a real update in a little over a week. I’ve been busy pulling out holiday decorations and working. Best advice I can give for long term Christmas decor? Buy led light strings. They last way way waaay longer and look cooler (in my opinion.) They also cost about the same as normal light strings.
I have had Deep Blue Something’s “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” stuck in my head for most of the day… Was that based a movie? Was it any good?
Christmas is the busiest season for us candlemakers you know? We are working hard to save up money for the baby. All those baby items add up! Meh, damn car seats why can’t I just go Britney and sit ‘em on my lap. (Joking! I am joking!) I don’t like asking for stuff, but when in need… I am just starting to put together a baby registry on Amazon (which can be found here.)It is mostly neuter stuff since we probably won’t be announcing the baby’s sex, I may not even find out. There are so few real surprises left in the world. Christmas gifts are lovely and I adore them so much but please, if you want to get Michael and I something this year, choose an item off the registry. I would also adore any gently used baby item, I am so cool with used.
We had a first snow last night they said we would have accumulation but it hardly stuck, grrr! Still, snow! I loved snow. We are expecting 1 to 3 inches tonight, hopefully that will be accurate. It just doesn’t feel like the holiday season without some white stuff, ya know?
Ack! I am already talking holidays, we aren’t even to Thanksgiving here yet. No more of such talk till Friday then. No Saturday, I will be dead Friday. More on that later. We are spending Thanksgiving at Michael’s parents, I am bringing basil tomato polenta (so they will either love or hate me for that?) I love spending Thanksgiving up there, awesome company and awesome food. Pregnancy, the only time I can eat 2600 calories a day and not feel as guilty as everyone else, hehe!
But then comes Friday and I can do the overdose of caffeen anymore. Friday is Black Friday here in the USA, the busiest shopping day of the year when all the stores open super early with super sales. It is madness and I am working it. I have to be in the parking lot an hour earlier then usual opening managing parking in the downtown shopping district. Noooo! The extra money will be good though.
So maybe don’t expect too much Christmas cheer on Friday.
And maybe expect a Feline Friday on Saturday?
I’ll survive, I’m sure.
I think…
I just tried to use the tv remote to turn up YouTube on my laptop…
My uterus is absorbing my brain!

Good luck on not finding out the sex of the baby, youre pretty intuitive….with Lennon, I just KNEW he was going to be a boy, almost from the beginning.
And good luck on wrestling your brain back! Hugs, Eala

I knew there was another use for my remote.
Yes, ‘Breakfast At Tiffany’s’ was a famous movie
starring Audrey Hepburn. Big hit in it’s day and a pretty good film actually.
Have fun Thanksgiving!

Jasp!! I’ve got TONS of baby stuff!! If you’re have a girl, let me know and I’ll send you tons of girly/adorable/practically new clothes!!!! I’ve got so much stuff I need to get rid of that my little Kallie has grown out of. Wait…crap…my mom took all the good newborn clothes. I’ve still got the clothes she’s able to wear right now, though. By the time you have your baby, Kallie would have grown out of these clothes!! Anyways, I’m working on a blanket to send you for the baby. Love ya, sis!!
