So I woke up Thursday feeling like I had been sucking on razor blades while I was sleeping.... Not good... Took a few swings of "The good stuff" (Day Quill) and went on my way. Late as always. I arrive and there was a few peeps I already knew and plenty I've never met. It was fun. I wasn't feeling too well so I wasn't too talkative but it was good to get with fellow crafters. The only part I didn't like.... I was sitting next to the cheese platter... and it smelled like a fucking stinky ass shoe!! Gross! I'm not too fond of stinky cheese... hahaha other then that it was great. I liked seeing what everyone was making. Some wonderful things were going on! The llama mobile had to be my favorite!
I was embroidering but started to get super bored with it. See how I look when I don't feel to great... Pretty pissed off HAHAHAHA( but I wasn't ) I also wore one of my new creations in my hair! I will soon show you the whole " collection" once I get them all finished. I am really excited about them. I think they really reflect me as a person... Vintage sass!
Everyone was doing completely different things and it was GREAT! I loved seeing everything!
People shared some of their crafty secrets, their favorite glue, materials etc. It was really nice to talk to people who enjoy talking about things such as glue... hahahaha! (I was thinking of making a hot glue gun shrine... To ward off all extreme burns that it causes!! hahahaha)
Its nice to feel part of something. Especially something that is so important to me and is such a huge part of my life. Its a connection I think women are losing as time goes on. I am just glad that more and more people I am meeting sees this as well!
Other then that I am in another treasury!! Local etsy artist Elsiee is the one who made it! Its dedicated to Etsians with blogs... And boy do we know I have a blog!
Other then that... Other things to be happy about:
Joann is having $1.99 on all MCalls patterns next Friday-Sunday!
My G-Ma Judy from Michigan is down
I've been making fun baby things for Juans sister (pics soon)
My face doesn't have any major zits
All bills are paid off
Leopard satin ballet flats from target
Roasting marshmallows
What are some things that make you happy... Other then reading my wonderfulness?

The craft group sounds awesome! I wish I had one...or spare time for one. With a FT job and commuting 15 hours a week- yes, 15 hrs, once I get home I'm lucky to put daughter to bed and eata bowl of cereal before my head falls into it! It even looked like a nice gathering....nice post!
