Its Over!

Finally!!!!!!!!! The Christmas season is behind us. I can't tell you how much I have been looking forward to being done with giving and BUYING gifts, just seems to get more and more expensive as the years go buy. I got some very nice stuff though, including a ball winder and swift that I asked for! I will have pictures up as soon as I charge my camera. They are beautious if I do say so myself.

So now I have to figure out what I am going to be doing with myself if I don't have to worry about everyone else.....I really want to knit something for myself.....and watch supernatural....with a cup of green tea....yummmmmm

And then of course there are my new years resolutions.....which are...you guessed it! Losing weight and spending less money! Will I be able to do it? Only time will tell I suppose. The money one is the one I really want to succeed with, I can't believe how much money I have spent on going out to eat alone! I mean thousands of dollars this year and that just isn't right, I need to be smarter about where my money goes especially if I want to live on my own...with one Robert Gerard of course =)

Hermitization

In the words of one of my favorite blog writers (Crazy Aunt Purl) I would like to hermitize myself until after the holidays are over and done with. I have no desire to be merry or to tell other people to be merry. I have no desire to see people, talk to people, or even stand near people. I have absolutely no Christmas spirit this year, just bitterness because I have not finished my shopping because there is not enough time to breath deeply let alone buy gifts.

It will certainly be a small Christmas this year. My nana died a few weeks ago and my mom and I just don't want to deal with all the hooblah this year. We have a small (table size) Christmas tree as our only decoration and only a handful of presents under it. If I have to go to one more store I will be forced to scream and no one will want to be around me anyways.

Hermitization seems to be the only option this year. I want to find a nice cozy little shack where I can knit whatever I want without having to worry about holiday deadlines....maybe something for myself? That would be something new! =).....I would have a little fireplace and a cup of green tea (I have actually started to like the stuff!) and Mickey's Christmas Carol to watch while I knit something soft and squishy for myself. If it was a perfect world Robert Gerard would be there for a cuddle after. (I know hermitization means to be by yourself, but come on! He is adorable and snuggly!) Yes, that is what I want for Christmas Santa! Let me know when you find me such a place!

I Am Still Alive!!

Yes I am still alive and man it has been forever since I posted something! Since before Halloween! Shame on me....but I have tons of stuff to share =)

First of all Rob was in a body building competition because he is a nutter. Preparing for it made him grumpy, irritable, hungry, skinny and incredibly HOT! I mean it is incredible what a diet, some iron weights and some self tanner can do to a person, he looked completely different. I helped him get ready for it the night before and it took 4 coats of tanner to get him as dark as he got (my pastey little baby that he is!). We were there for about 14 hours and he got 12th out of 18, which isn't to shabby considering he had never done one and gained 10 pounds the month before when we pigged out in Vegas hehe. Here is a little eye candy for your enjoyment (yes he is in spandex underwear). I know they are pixlated....I was kinda far in the audience when I took them.....

I was so proud of him! And happy that he got to eat more the egg whites because man was that boy grouchy when he couldnt eat more then a rabbit does. Oh well, he is doing another one in May and I am sure he will be just as grouchy haha.

Then of course we have Halloween. We when to his friend house who lives in Rebecca Churches old place (one of the Salem witches, cool huh?) He went as the Ultimate Warrior (snicker) and I went as Selene from Underworld......

His costumes are always the best =). Well I think that is it for now since I am at work, I will post more tomorrow hopefully if this mountain on my desk doesn't get any bigger ::sigh:: =(
