I want a home where maintainence people can't just unlock your door and peek around your living room whenever they want. I want a home where I can paint my walls hot pink if I so choose...
I started reading this book sunday and finished it yesterday(monday), She's Come Undone by Wally Lamb. It's twisted my whole brain around and has me thinking all these weird thoughts and having weird dreams. I don't want to eat and I don't want to sleep and I don't want to speak at all. I just want to sit and listen ...and I don't know why. I don't know why this book had such an effect on me, for God's sake, it's an Oprah book club book. I thought I was above such nonsense.
Tonight I indulged in The Real World and The Osbournes. I swear, the Osbournes is simply the best show on television. Sharon Osbourne reminds me of my mother, only richer and more free spirited. Oh, and British.
I don't want to go through life always wanting wanting wanting. That's no way to live. I'd like to start living, and enjoying myself, and not always worrying about tomorrow. I don't know what this is supposed to mean, and my life will probably not change at all even though I have said it and published it on the internet. Oh well.
This is me and devie earlier tonight. Devan fell out of her crib today at around 5pm. She's fine but boy did she scream when it happened. And then after consoling her for awhile, I said "do you feel better, Devie?" and she started clapping her hands. That's my tough girl.
I still haven't chosen a proof. This is so much harder than I ever thought it would be. I figured that since I am the mother I would be able to be the most objective. I think that's the opposite of what it really is.
this(click it) is how you dress your daughter when you've been listening to Ja Rule all day.
I just got back from Jon's moms house and i'm so mad. I had this peice of bubblegum in my pocket that i wanted to chew while I did some stuff on the internet tonight and I guess it fell out of my pocket, so stella was chewing it instead. I haven't been keeping up on this journal because I have been writing in my real journal. You know, the kind no one else sees. I thought I already said that today, but I guess not.
I applied for sccc and who knows when they'll get back to me. Who really knows anything anyways!!!
Look at my little girl. So cute. Jon and I just got back from the diner. We had breakfast for dinner and it was so good. I am probably going to spend 2 months in ohio pretty soon. Jon has to study for his MCSE stuff and I want to give him the time and space he needs to get all this junk done. FOR ONCE AND FOR ALLLLLL. Maybe I can work while I'm out there? My stepdad has said he'd watch Devan for me until I get home MOndays and Tuesdays, but I'm not sure what's going on, so who knows.
I was re reading some previous posts and, looking at devan's easter dress pictures, I realized :: her tongue is out in all of them. What's with that!!?? She's such a cutie pie, I wish I looked like her. I gave her a bath today and she smells so nice. I want to hold her and smell her hair, but she's taking a nap, and she needs it. Lately, she's going down for a nap, but not staying asleep very long.
Iam surrounded by candlelight. It's very nice. I've got my pretty colored glass lanterns on the hutch, a sugar cookie scented candle next to me on the desk, and two others on the bookshelf.
I guess there's a drought in NJ? That stinks. They're going to ration water, I heard. And in other news:: Stella has figured out how to get into the recliner, so now she curls up with Marmalade all day, instead of with me!
Jon should be home soon. He's running late. He called from Jefferson. I am making spaghetti.. It smells gooooooooood.
i would really like to know what the hell is wrong with me.I am going crazy. It's happening like every day now. and it lasts all day. Everything smells the same. Nothing smells the way it is supposed to. I mean, I can smell a little of whatever, but there's this weird smell--and it's like a smell you can taste and it's weird, and not a good weird, a bad weird. and it's really making me crazy.
Not only this, but I have also, twice in the last month woken up with my left eye all swollen and the lid drooping, causing blurred vision. And my hands keep swelling. mostly my thumbs but sometimes my whole hand will swell up and turn red and itchy. I have no idea what causes all of this but It's driving me crazy. Okay, now that I've gotten that out of my system.. Goodnight!!
hi, I am not going to my gr. grandmothers funeral. I cannot afford to go out there this time.
My brother and his girlfriend had a baby yesterday!! The baby's name is Zachary Russell Wuebker. I don't know much more than that right now, so I'll say more when I know more.
I have heartburn. It's Jim's birthday so we're going to eat cake tonight.

I am unable to sleep, so I took time to make the blog archives work. of course, images that were on old yahoo server do not work anymore (read: anything before April 2005) so you'll have to use your imagination. Check the sidebar for a link if you're interested.

(Nov 22)
There. I finally did it. Now go buy me stuff:)
.......................
(Nov 7)Take note of the changes along the right sidebar. I've been reading blogs, and that, of course, means joining knitalongs!
However my next task (which will be my next announcement)
is to create a holiday wishlist, as there have been several people asking for one.

(Aug 6) Hi guys, How cute is this: I have a new little niece!! Bryan and Mandie's little girl was born last Sunday (I think)
and in the spirit of utter ridiculousness, I give you, Madelyn dancing.

(May
23) Sup dudes? I was kinda bored last night, so I made a picture.
again. only tell me if you like it. I have a fragile ego.
.......................
(May
14) Going through a wave of depression. Don't feel like
doing anything except artwork. Here are a couple
pictures I made. You may have seen them, since they're
meant for my websites. If you've seen them as background
images, excuse the tiling, I'm fixing it when I feel
like it.
if you like them, let me know. if you don't, keep it to
yourself.
.......................
(April 28) Ok... I've been on hiatus. Bear with me and
my broken links and pictures while I move all my junk
around.
Life is good and I'm glad my site is working again.
.......................
(Jan 11) Due to real life
pals/family complaining about how little real life
content there is in this journal, I'm going to make a
real effort to include that stuff, and not just knitting
stuff. I hope this pleases you guys.

(Jan 10) Today is the
anniversary of my Grampa's death. We still miss you so
much.

(Jan 4) Congratulations
Michael & Tiffany!!
Welcome to the family,
Tif!

(Dec 30) Just two quick
notes today:
1. We've got another
completed Casey's Coat.
click to see Vito!
2. I'll be out of town
for about 3 weeks. My brother, Mike, is getting married!
After that I'm going to be house sitting for my mom
while she is out of town. This will not have an affect
on you or my blogging, I just felt like sharing.
.......................
(Dec 2) My brother has
been making me some pretty cool knitting charts. I think
they're mighty awesome and I'm trying to figure out a
project I can use them for. They're pdf files, except
the first one (which is actually not his design, it's
the work of someone on myspace.com) so go ahead and have
at them. If he makes many more charts, I'll disable the
links and offer the chart patterns for a small fee via
paypal, because, after all, it is his art work and he
deserves compensation!

(Nov 28)My little sister is a knittin' fool. We shopped
all over for some good needles for her. She's been using
these kids plastic-y needles that I find to be really
uncomfortable and annoying. We tried some aluminum
needles but they were too slick and long. We finally
settled on some Clover Bamboo needles and from what I
have heard, she likes them the best. She's working on a
lavender scarf. I'll have my mom take a pic so I can
post it here.

(Nov 28) I'm back! Christmas Knitting and yarn stash
enhancement is in full effect in this house. There's a
new(?) Knitting/Fabric store in the town my mom lives
in. It's called Sew Krazy. image is property of sew-krazy.com
They are currently squeezed in a tiny location just
chock full of amazing stuff! They have a whole shelf of
Kaffe Fasset fabrics, which you know I loved. They
had lots of yarn by Rowan and Brown Sheep. They didn't
have any Debbie Bliss. The shop is working on expanding
in a new location, equipped with a beautiful fireplace
(My mom and I peeked through a hole in the door) and
it's HUGE. This place was great and there's a cafe
called Muddy Waters next door. So this place will be
perfect to sit down, relax, drink coffee, and knit by
the fireplace when I go out to visit for 3 weeks in
January. The building is also really beautiful and
contains many other interesting shops. Check it out if
you're ever nearby.

(Nov 18)Last year for Christmas, Mr. Handsome gave me an
EZ Stir. If you haven't got a clue what an easy-stir
is, (consider yourself lucky) it's a device that
attaches to your pots and pans and stirs your sauces for
you! Ingenious! I have still not taken the EZ Stir out
of its package. This year, I thought I'd make it easy on
my husband and anyone else who wishes to shower me with
gifts.
