im a loser

so its been hard as heck trying to get all the information about this craft fair. i can't even get a call or email back from the orginazer. and my friend some how can, and never gets all of the info or just isn't telling me. this whole thing is a little frustating . she told me that i might need a tent in case it rains, so i guess that it's going to be out in a parking lot. let hope it's not bad out that day.  its also the day of toby and I's anniversary so yea.

i've been crafting up a storm for this things look
i made record bowls , picture frame earring holders, and price cards.
the record bowls are made like this .
the picure frame are made with an old lace curtain. its cut to be just a little bigger then the back piece of the frame. then you can glue it on i just shoved the back on and let a little hang over. it's not pro looking put it gets the job done.
the price cards took the longest. its made with consturtion paper, glue decrotive cutters if you got em. the paper is 12*9 so you can get 3*3 squares yay. glue two colors together. add a little edge to the front piece if you like. I got a stamper from vista printing, so i put my That1girl on the back of all the cards. and the price on the front in the area where your  name is. you can sew beads/ buttons to it. if you have post earrings you can just poke them though and put on the backer. or use a hole punch in the corner and string it to things.

race you

hi a

toby and i are trying to see who can lose the most weight by summer.the winner gets to spend 50$ at the mall and make the loser watch them. so i'm trying to win,lol.

but we're not doing very good. we eat what ever we want.and exercise when ever we want. i went a full week with out working out. toby has been hogging the t.v so i forget to do my dvd's, yes there is a t.v in the work room, but its on the floor not very easy to go along with.

i've gotten into knitting podcast latly. i listen to Yknit and Diva Knitting. i will add more as soon as i get though the two years i missed on the first two podcast.

my hats are coming along slowly.but a two hats a week is great right.

i had to make a hat for my self yesterday, i've been wearing an earband but its getting to cold so i'm going to combine the two, yea.

I really need to get working on the stuff that i'm going to sell this summer. quick cute little projects.

toby and i have been working 4-10 together, i'm guessing until spring. so we are short on money. so i need to relearn how to live on less. there is a program at the library on it i'm hoping to go.

if you live in a glass city dont throw stones

So Toby got his name legal changed back in October. he is very happy about it. he has also been on T for a few weeks also. nothing has really changed to much for him yet.

me I've been doing the same old same old. I've finished a few project. i made Toby a crochet Yoshi doll from scratch. he loves it but i see all the problems with it.

I've got back into reading again. but there knitting books,lol. so that has cut my crafting time in half.

I've also been working on winter time gifts. for my friends and family. Martina wants me to make gifts for her friends. as long as she is really planing on paying me. then its ok, but i don't think she is going to pay because she still hasn't given me the money for the yarn.

i made somethings for this girl named amanda. like two or three months ago. but she isn't even trying to get them. i guess i can email her again to say that i'm selling them to someone else soon.

i need to find a cheap craft show that i can sell some of my items at. because i have two small boxes. i would only take me one day to sell them. i'll start looking next year. get my self up to four boxes .

I craft, I like making non useful items. And can't work on big projects without making ten items in between
