New Toys and Old Nightmares


Yesterday I got a new cell phone. It's the Samsung m510, colour, purple. It's cute and there is a way to make my own ringtones. *shh! don't tell the phone company!* Just yesterday I was telling my friend that games on cell phones are pointless. When the heck would I ever play it? Well, guess what I spent my morning doing...heh heh I was browsing the availible downloads on the phone company's website, and they have a phone version of my favorite PC game, The Sims2. I caved, paid the 7 dollars, and have been playing all morning.

A HUGE Happy Birthday to my beautiful niece, JK. She is one year old yesterday!
This next picture is Jewel, Raven, and JK. (left to right...or is that back to front? heh heh )

I need to get back to work. I have a pile of housework waiting for me. I have been largly avoiding housework the past few days. Once my house work is done, I have to tackle....THE THING. This is the stuff that nighmares are made of. It started small, and just got bigger, and bigger... It's getting harder to contain, and it's taking over my crafting space! It's ALIVE!!! AHHHHHHHHH!!!!

This is AFTER I detangled about 6 balls of yarn.



I even tried offereing to pay Jewel a dollar for each ball of yarn she untangled. She demanded more. So it gets contains, I add no new yarn, but somehow it finds more. I think I will offer her 50 bux to help me detangle...payment upon completion. LOL


When we went shopping in chilliwack we bought some books. Jewel got 2 graphic novels. Warriors, and Peach Fuzz. Warriors is about cats who are warriors, and Peach fuzz is well, I don;t know what it is about, but it's very girly, and rated good for all ages. heh heh













For Raven I got Go Dog Go, and Ten Apples Up On Top. I Loved them as a kid. Remember those Jo? Do you remember the one with the animal that has spots? He could change them and take them off to play with and everything...I want to buy that one too, but I don;'t remember the name. Also, I Wish That I Had Duck Feet. lol

Aw, I love that picture of the three beauties in bed with their puppies. JK loves puppies now. But she doesn't like when the live ones lick her face. Mama's girl I guess.

What a cute cell phone! I just get KD's hand-me-downs, but I don't mind. I don't really care what my phone looks like, since I don't use it much.

Wow, that thing is scary! To be fair, it got some help in growing from mom's stash when you got it, right? While you're detangling, just think of all the stuff you can do with all that precious yarn!

JK has that Ten Apples book...but I think it's a shortened baby version! I swear I remember the three cocky animals dropping all the apples, but the book we have ends once they all have 10. So not fun! It's like her book saying "this little piggy had cookies, this little piggy had fun"...It's "roast beef" and "none"! You can't mess with the classics I say.

That book about the polka-dot guy is about him wanting to go live at the zoo...the word zoo is in the title I think. Good luck finding it!

THe Ten apples book DOES wind up with a crash...All the angry bears they pissed off with thier apple shinagans start chasing them with brooms and tire irons untill they all crash into a LARGE cart full of apples, then on the last page they are ALL sitting around, each with 10 apples up on top. lol

Put Me In The Zoo is the name of the book about the thing with the spots.
