procrastinator

i am so behind on my 365. and i confess, i haven't taken a picture everyday. there are a lot of reasons why, but i shouldn't make excuses. but i will. ha! my mother-in-law is in town and she is running a tight ship around here;) we've been painting and cleaning like madmen. oh, and i think i have strep. yikes. the baybee is sick (but feeling a lot better), johnny is sick, my m-in-l is sick and so am i. the only one that has lucked out (haha) is brendan because he's been at his dad's house. so it hasn't been easy for me to keep up. there. that's my sob story. don't be mad at me. thanks.

- we went to the jewelers to get me a wedding band (8 months after we married;) and walked out with a beautiful 3 diamond ring and a wedding band. i absolutely love it.

- my husband picked me flowers this morning. the first flowers to bloom this year. i am so lucky:)

day 18

day 18 of project 365.

- it started snowing today! (and i kind of want it to stick:)
- johnny got my battery and alternator tested. it seems the alternator went out. ack!
- a new alternator is $150+!!! we went hunting around a pull-a-part place with no luck:(
- the steelers won! super bowl baby!

day 13

day 13 of project 365.

- worked. (did i mention i love basic grey's bittersweet line?)
- got up way too early to take john to work. i wish his truck was fixed!

day 10

day 10 of project 365.

- today johnny and i have been married for 6 months. i love that man:)
- we went to the flea market. not very interesting today. what a shame.
- johnny is making great progress on the fireplace. soon we can seal the brick and add the mantle and it will be done! yay!
- i almost lost all of my mom's photos after formatting her memory card... i burned a cd of the photos, but the files wouldn't open!! and i formatted the card before checking the cd!! ack! BUT i did some research and found a program called art plus digital photo recovery that can retrieve photos lost after formatting/deleting. technology saves the day! it's a free program, so i recommend having it in case something like this happens to you!

day 9

day 9 of project 365.

- did a LOT of running around today, but still managed to get nothing done.
- lily is finally warming up to her daddy. she is a momma's girl. whodathunkit?

day 2

day 2 of project 365.

- we are going to grout the tile in front of the fireplace tonight. i am so excited for this to be done!
- johnny, the baybee and i went to the big flea market at the fair and expo center. this is where he bought me the cameras shown to the right. they are miniature cameras that once actually took real photographs. if i had the means (i.e. that darkroom i've always wanted) i would modify some film for them to work again. but the darkroom must wait. bleh. i love miniatures and i love cameras (i have a BUNCH), so here is a happy marriage of the two;)
- i saw a man with a prosthetic nose. interesting.
- lily slept the entire time we were at the flea market. very odd.
- john and i were looking at a bakelite set of drawers at the flea market and decided to open one. what was in the drawers, you ask? teeth. seriously. to make molds for dentures i guess. and i think they were real. eek (this is going to give me nightmares).

and as an added bonus, i would like to share a second photo of another great find from the flea market...

aren't they the cutest glasses you've ever seen? the lady i got these from said they are from the 1950s. and at $20, i couldn't pass these up. going on display in the baybee's room:)

day 1

day one of project 365.

- i worked (hence, the picture of archiver's). well, for about 3 hours. whoopteedo.
- johnny started on tiling the floor in front of the fireplace. it may soon be on the finished project list!
- lily is getting progressively better at using her hands. she has realized they do more than just smack her in the face.
- brendan is still not home from his dad's. i miss him. a lot.

i'm tired! goodnight!
