Oh goodness it's coming.

Alright. Last year I decided I was going to be ever so efficient and send out Christmas Cards, I got organized and wrote a bunch, sent half. And forgot about the rest. I am absolutely awful when it coms to my dear friend procrastination. I am trying to change that. I'm not entirely sure how it's going to happen, or if it even will. Baby steps is what I'm telling myself.

Laundry. Rather than just bringing the basket of clean clothes upstairs and leaving it at that I'm trying to just fold it and put it away then. No better time like the present right? I just need to realize that I truly have no other obligations other than feeding and keeping my daughter safe. Putting dishes directly into the dishwasher, putting thing away so our house doesn't turn into mass destruction so quickly. I'm so easily distracted that I'll just put something down and forget about it. That is the habit that must stop. Dishes, garbage, books, paper, anything.

Anyway, point of this, I'm working my ass off on them right now. I need to get them done. and I am determined to finish and mail them out before December 1. Why? To prove to no one but myself that it can be done. :) I think it'll happen. I have a lot of Christmas crafts to make between now and December 25. I better get cracking'!

I'm just so exciting!

I wish I had some super exciting things to post about so I could actually blog every day. I'd probably complain about my boredom a lot if I did that. So let's be honest, I probably won't ever post every day. I'd really like to though.

With that said, I got bored the other day and went on a google adventure and printed a few pictures of sugar skulls. And had a colouring party. Eventually Mya woke up from her nap and even helped me colour a couple pages. I'm not sure what it is, but I frigging LOVE colouring with my kid. I'll confess, I even have a colouring book stashed away that I won't let Mya even touch. All mine. Selfish, aren't I?
This past weekend was kind of a mess. Jake and I went for dinner at a friends, planned to play some board games and hang out. We had a babysitter for the night, so it was no big deal. Well I got a little carried away and didn't realize just how quickly and how much I had been drinking. By the end of the night I was having quite a bonding session with the porcelain god at home, yet I was still convinced we were at our friends. Jeez! I'll save the details, but all I can say is it's a Good thing my honey loves me!!

feeling crafty....

So since I discovered pinterest the other day, I admit it, I have become absolutely obsessed! I can't believe I never thought of checking online for gift tags or subway art to put on the walls at home. I've already found so many ways for my family to spend a little bit of money (on some craft supplies), and to actually decorate our house for Christmas! I seriously can't even wait! I think I want this frame in the picture idea on my door. I'm hung up on wreath ideas. LOVE ornament wreaths. But then again, I am dying to make this and this so bad. There are so many helpful websites and ideas out there that would look cute in my house! I can't wait. So likely this afternoon, I will go on an adventure to our local craft shop and get myself a few supplies so I can craft it up this week!
So, I'm also trying to come up with ideas for my little salon corner I call The Twisted Shear. Right now, it's just a corner in our kitchen. But considering we're renting our home, I think it's pretty rad. I just need to throw some excitement on the walls. I'm struggling between my new found love for what seems to be called subway art, and vintage inspired prints and knick knacks. I'm just stumped. I love all of it!!!

oh shoot.

okay so I have now discovered pinterest. I feel an addiction beginning. If you have it, check me out... pinterest.com/lynbot

I was so excited I had to write a quickie!

zing.

I'm starting this entry and don't even know what to title it. Maybe something will come to me as I type. It's a mystery!

It's Friday! I'm pretty happy. Although, every day is like a Friday to me. Except this one is special. Mya is going to Grandma's tonight and then likely Nana's tomorrow. It's going to be a very nice quiet weekend I hope.

I think my biggest and only plan this weekend is going to be to start and finish my Christmas cards! LOL I said it last year, and I'm going to follow through this year. Family and friends, if you want a Christmas card, email me your address!!!! <3 They're coming!

I haven't done too much hair recently, but I did do a colour the other night that I was pretty impressed with. I'm going to be working on Gift certificates for christmas time too. I know November 4th is pretty early to even think about it.. But I'm trying to be more organized and be better prepared. And in all reality, this can't be bad right?
