We had a good morning, the kids and I.<br />Bread co for pastries, Trader Joes for groceries, Red Box for movies, and Build a Bear for new dresses. Are you guys familiar with <a style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" href="http://www.buildabear.com/">Build a Bear</a>? It's a company that started in St. Louis, but I think they have gone national. Well they sent a coupon, and i'm a sucker for a coupon. $10 off $30. Lila got her bear 'Berry' and an outfit in september for her birthday. Since then Berry has become her one of her prized possessions. She sleeps with her and Berry is always the guest of honor at frequent tea parties. So it was time to expand her wardrobe. Let me tell you, if you haven't been, this store is fun. Dresses, shoes, accessories, all really creative and well made. Most importantly, Lila can easily dress and undress her bear. Really fun, really cute.sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02204814160648826241noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13228454.post-34783789794848191792011-01-20T21:28:00.003-06:002011-01-20T21:43:04.416-06:00day 20<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b101/sew333/coiledblog.jpg"><img style="float: left;

Paul ran his car in four races and he placed second in all four. his overall times had him finishing 5th out of the 12 tiger scouts. a respectable showing if i say so myself. obviously i was never in scouts and my husband never was either so we were truly first timers. <br /><br />also!<br /><br />i sent my slides over to an art fair i'm interested in. i find out if i was accepted on feb. 20.<br /><br />so my two deadlines are met and now i can busy myself with other things, like MORE PAINTING :)sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02204814160648826241noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13228454.post-63237495450144502402011-01-14T20:43:00.003-06:002011-01-14T20:46:03.736-06:00Day 14<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b101/sew333/unbrokenblog.jpg"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 476px; height: 691px;" src="http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b101/sew333/unbrokenblog.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />'Unbroken' the finished piecesarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02204814160648826241noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13228454.post-90767546597371174452011-01-13T21:33:00.002-06:002011-01-13T21:51:55.627-06:00day 13<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b101/sew333/wip13.jpg"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 373px; height: 799px;" src="http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b101/sew333/wip13.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />i think this will be slide number two for the fair. there is a couple more things I may do to it, but haven't decided yet.<br /><br />today was a strange day. i felt kind of tense, on edge.<br />i'm sure it's the two deadlines i have approaching. <br /><br />I need to get the art fair slides emailed tomorrow, and Saturday is the pine wood derby.<br /><br />i'm surprised how anxious that event is making me. There is so many components to doing the car and we've never done it it. We had to polish axles and balance wheels and carve and add weights and use graphite powder to reduce friction. Can't say I really enjoyed it much. <br />HOWEVER, i do believe that once we make it through this year, next year should be better.sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02204814160648826241noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13228454.post-18220319387644138392011-01-12T20:27:00.004-06:002011-01-12T22:36:40.260-06:00day 12<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b101/sew333/letitsnowblog.jpg"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 450px; height: 556px;" src="http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b101/sew333/letitsnowblog.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />on ebay now... click <a style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200564888258&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT">HERE</a><br /><br />I guess I've got snow on the brain. It looks like we're going to have snow on the ground for a while now. <br /><br />I've had a good attitude this winter, until my sister reminded me it's only been officially winter for a few weeks. Talk to me at the end of February, she said.<br /><br />Hmph.<br /><br />I was awfully cold this afternoon. I have a hard time functioning if I'm cold. I start slowing down, and seeking out heat through hot baths or my electric blanket. I also have been known to bake potatoes just so I can have the oven on for an hour and afterwords I will leave the door open to let the warmth circulate out.<br /><br />I did turn up the thermostat, twice, so it was running at 75.<br />Finally I was comfortable.<br /><br />Tomorrow I think I'll layer more clothes on, and not be so reluctant to turn up the heat a degree or two. If it's the difference from being productive, or being uncomfortable and unmotivated, I choose productive.sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02204814160648826241noreply@blogger.com1
