b-l-o-double G

I can't say much for the video, but this version of this song just cracks me up....

creations...

A friend has commissioned me to make some tea towels for her to give as wedding gifts. I just wanted to share...

Today is the last day of 9 days off work. boo. It was a productive week. I was a little sidetracked by Logan's cat getting injured. The Vet thinks he must've caught his paw in a chain link fence. He tore a tendon in his leg allowing the ankle joint to dislocate and also fractured a bone. Poor thing. My mom was so worried about him, it broke my heart. So I spent a large chunk of my time helping out with administering meds. transporting to the vet and comforting my mom. Aside from that, I worked on some projects around the house. It was 1 year ago that my grandfather passed away. And it was 1 year ago that I aquired Maggie. This also means that it was 1 year ago that I started the remodel on this house and started moving in. The biggest task hanging over my head was getting the wood moulding finished. I couldn't decide what to use around the windows, so it sat unfinished all this time. Well....it's finished!! Wahoo!!!

leave Britney ALONE! PLEEEZZZ!

new wheels

So I picked up my new car today. A Jeep Grand Cherokee. It's not new-new, but it's new to me, and newer than the other Jeep. It's super sweet. Power locks, power windows, power seats, heated seats, car alarm, those little knobby things on the steering wheel to adjust the radio whilst you drive..... ahhhhhh

Ruybalid Chili Roast...

It was that time of year. The Ruybalid Family Chili Roast. This tradition (which always takes place on Labor Day Weekend) has turned into more of a party than a weekend of work. That's not such a bad thing, there was work done, but it also felt like things are changing as the younger generation of Ruybalid's are taking over. There were boyfriends, girlfriends and friends working hard. It used to be family and only family..... I kinda like how we are including those who are important to us in this event. Next Reno Roast is at my house. I'm already freaking out!!! P.S. Thanks, Brad, for all your hard roasting work. There are rellenos in your future as payment!
