Today
I spent the whole day in my pj’s, hung out with my love, baked a shit ton of cookies, watched #mlg, and crocheted this bad boy.
PAPOW! ACTION SHOT!
Anyways, working on the other one right now :)
Totally in love with the pic below and was my inspiration into trying to crochet arm warmers.
Should I do my own tree or something else?

Second crochet bag completed
I had plans of selling my first one online, but as my mom has made it very clear that bag is hers, I had to make a new one in order to keep up with the bet I have going on with my husband. As soon as I get home I will have it pictures posted.

Just a thought - talking people down from the...
So I’ve devised a new plan for companies. Companies should introduce a “nice” test. People calling in would have to answer a series of questions like; how upset are you, is this an ongoing issue, and the most important, do you feel it’s ok to scream at the reps answering the call (with/without obscenities)?

Say what you will about the death of print and the space hogging nature of physical books, cause I know this much: I’d rather live in this bookshelf house and thumb through pages than a house with Kindle-lined walls. The homeowner wanted his house, located in Osaka, Japan, to be able to store and…
