Exciting News re: small business

So I started making some felted clips and earrings and wooden pendants with my friends Doni and David, with much input from my amazing and wonderful husband, and here we are two months later, and our stuff is in stores!! You can find "Mr. Other One" stuff at leo hand made gallery and some at collective clothing. We are doing a craft fare this weekend for Hamilton County teachers, and I just applied to be at the Chattanooga Market!!

Anyway, I'll post some pics of the stuff soon....i'm so tired from pushing so hard to get this stuff out there.

I feel much better now

Several people had commented on how my last blog was depressing. Well, here's one that's not. I've been making bows and hair clips, and I cut my hair. I love it. I'm also trying to make jewelry which you should be able to purchase at collective clothing and/or Leo Handmade Gallery. Both awesome stores...here go some pics....

It's been a while

No blog in a long time...but I found myself with not much to do this day (Saturday). This is the first block of multiple hours that I've had completely to myself in a long long time. While I have certainly been less than productive, I think that it has been good. I have been having a hard time finding value in things that aren't directly related to survival (ie. work, food prep., etc.)

depressing

my job rules!

Things. I am a nanny. It is totally awesome. Please hang out with me as my schedule is now really flexible and I can go anywhere...reasonably speaking.

I got a new job

Hello everyone! I haven't posted in a long while, but I'm back. I mostly haven't posted because I've been really busy with my job, but because of that- I quit, and I've got a new and exciting career as a nanny! I'm pretty excited about the prospect of being responsible for just one child instead of 15. I'll be working on not complicating my life too much, taking some time to sit back and chill, and then applying to grad school. Anyway, I'm happy about the transition- just wanted to give everyone a little update on myself. So there.

We're moving-

We are moving- Reeve moved a lot of stuff today while I was at work at Mtn. View Nissan, and then we packed some more stuff tonight. All the big stuff is going to the new house tomorrow with a little help from my friends. Anyway, I thought it proper to have one last photo upload from the couch at the Birdhouse. So here goes....
Also- here are some pics of a reeve hair cut:

What's new...

My job was good last week- and so far this week. I got a new student, so I now have 14 children enrolled in my class, but they don't all come on the same day. My Tuesdays and Thursdays are pretty crazy though b/c I have 10 on those days. Anyway, I took a video of me playing one of my favorite songs. It's by The Mountain Goats, and it's called Alpha Rats Nest. It's good- I mean the original. Anyway...
