These Chucks were Made for Walkin

Wow. So it is Sunday night and I am pooped. Yesterday was a craft store marathon in T-Town. We went to two non-craft stores at the mall, Jo-Ann's, Babies R Us, Hancock Fabrics, a quilt store and Barnes and Noble. My heels are really sore now for some reason. Maybe I have grown accustomed to sitting in a cubicle all day. I try to get up and walk a lot but there aren't too many places I can go. I finished the camo family of hats--one for A-dolly and her mom, one for her dad and a baby girl and a baby boy one since we don't know if A-dolly is going to have a little sister or a little brother yet because her parents want to be surprised. My aunt D and my mom had two sewing machines constantly going when we weren't shopping. They were making clothes for all the babies that we know that have been recently born or will be born soon. They were also making lots of doll clothes for A-dolly. She is going to be Cindy-relly for Halloween and she looks beautiful in her costume. I still prefer my role as the fairy godmother. I have also made two other hats for charity, since it is that time of year again. I am getting closer on the rainbow dish cloth. I also got almost two yards of Hello Kitty pink Rock and Roll polar fleece that is soooo warm and soft. Like I really needed a new blankie but it was 40% off!!! That stuff can be between $10 and $14 a yard depending on what is printed on it and the grade of fleece used.

It rained a lot this weekend so my allergies are screwed up again. And my car is in the shop. Through a sick twist of fate, somehow a rock flew up in the undercarriage of my beloved 03 Subaru Forrester and ruined the air conditioner, radiator and something else related that is expensive. So it is at the dealership, awaiting parts and a $2000.00 repair bill. I am now officially indebted to my father for all eternity now for bailing me out on this one. did i mention the rental car is in his name so i can't technically drive it? He took the car to the dealership in Tulsa on Friday while I was at work. Lets hope the parts get here super fast. it really sucks having to bum rides off of people and driving unfamiliar cars. Did I mention I left my good cds and my sunglass clips in since I didn't know it was going to have to have a shitload of repair work done? we just thought the air conditioner was having problems and needed more juice or something...Sniff sniff....Some random mechanic gets to listen to my Justin Timberlake and the new Killers cds!!! I miss my car!!!

Work and school are insane as usual.My goal is to make it until Nov. That is when things should calm down except for the school part maybe. Honestly, though, I thrive on insanity. I like challenges and having things to do. I get bored very easily.

I think those are all the stories that I can tell on the internets.
