I should probably update a bit more often, especially when my last entry has me huddled in a corner, trying not to cry.
I finally did cry...it didn't help. Though Sam snuggled me nearly the whole time. That was sweet.
I'm not completely sure what's going on with me, but I'm getting used to the roller coaster. Or at least, that's what I'm telling meself.:)
We had a good weekend...didn't get fuck-all done, but made lots of plans. We were going to take Sam to see Monsters Inc. on Sunday (Jeff was paintball boi on Saturday...which kind of wiped him out for the day...but he had just the *best* time, so it was ok.:) , but she hadn't had a nap and was in cranky mode...it didn't seem fair to take her into a completely new experience that involved the dark (she's not so big on dark) when she was already cranky.
Maybe we'll go for my birthday next week. Whenever we go, we'll have the baby earplugs we bought on Sunday before Sam went cranky.:) I figure, if she wants to fuck up her hearing when she's older, that's her right, but I'm not going to do it for her.
So, we drove around for a while, to let her have a long sleep...it was *nice*...we talked and looked at stuff and it wasn't stressful at all. We found a "new" Goodwill store as well...we got a *big* suitcase for eight bucks, a reversible baby entertainment table for three and a bunch of kitchen stuff. Since we're having Jeff's 'rents over next Saturday for an early T`giving thing (this is known as "Invite them over, feed them and you won't be obliged to see them till sometime in late December".), the casserole dishes and big platter I found will come in *very* handy.
We got some very pretty cobalt blue goblets(Second from the right) a month or so ago, from Pier One...and I've been toying with the idea of etching them, the way Mum and Nan etched the wine glasses they gave Jeff and I when we got married.

We got some very pretty <a href="http://www.pier1.com/images/products/G2366D.jpg">cobalt blue goblets</a>(Second from the right) a month or so ago, from <a href="http://pierone.com/">Pier One</a>...and I've been toying with the idea of <a href="http://michaels.com/art/online/DisplayProduct?prrfnbr=405997">etching them</a>, the way Mum and Nan etched the wine glasses they gave Jeff and I when we got married.
We were in <a href=""http://michaels.com/>Michael's</a> on Sunday, looking for barrette flowers (99 cents a bunch? I don't *think* so.) I really must find a wholesale outlet for them...'cause I really *like* the barrettes, but I need almost a whole bunch for each barrette. I know I bought a big bag of them at <a href="http://www.walmart.com/">Wallmart</a> a number of years ago, but since I've been boycotting Wallmart for...nearly two years now, I can't check. But, if they've got bags, that means that *someone* else must.
*Anyway*, the point of this was, I found a set of etching stencils there...moon and stars, *very* pretty. But, they didn't have the etching goop nearby. There was a kit sort of nearby...but that wasn't what we needed. It was all kind of confusing...and it bummed me out, 'cause they were exactly what I wanted for the goblets. But, no worries...I need to go to <a href="http://www.acmoore.com/">AC Moore</a> to find tips for my squeeze-paint bottles (these should make doing the "leading" on the "stained glass" frames simpler.) and I'm pretty sure they'll have both stencils and goop there.
I did find a screw-on brush tip for two-ounce paint bottles...will make painting the sides/back of the frames *far* easier. At least, it *seems* like it will...I'm still working on my current batch...but I should be getting to the fresh frames later today.:)
I'm trying to keep myself busy...not to keep my mind off anything, but because I want to feel accomplished at the end of the day. And being able to go "Ok, did that, that, that and finally got started on thing I've been putting off for too long." is, in a word, invaluable.
I just got spam telling me to "Turn off my television and turn on my computer." How the fuck am I *reading* the spam if I haven't turned my computer on? Oh well, at least this one wasn't promising to make my penis longer.
Train of thought de-railed. I should get back to the frames anyway. More later.
Hope y'all are doing well and are in good spirits.
