Cell phones & Washing machines DON'T MIX!!

Hard, hard, HARD lesson to learn. But I did. Last night. I want to cry. Guess it's not so bad. I'm due for an upgrade anyway. DH dropped his down an elevator shaft into a giant pool of hydrolic fluid a few months ago. He got a fancy, smancy new phone. At the time he saw a bunch of phones, one of which was pink!! If I can get that one, it's mine. :) Love my pink.

In other news, I'm 95% done my cards. Well, the cards are completed but I'm part way through addressing them. And of course I have to wait for the damn pics of E to come back (Saturday). I have the ornaments 95% done too...just need sparkles ("snow") for the insides. Unfortunately, I had 1 casualty. One of my glass balls bit the dust. It wasn't my night last night. :) So, this evening, DH & I are weighing in...I feel I've lost this week; DH doesn't think he did at all. Afterward we'll grab a bite and he's getting me to pick out one of my Christmas gifts. Yeah I know, there'll be no surprise but he would rather (and so would I) that I pick it out. I asked for a new outfit to wear to Curves. I'm really stoked about it. I think it's the best practical and indulgent gift I could choose.

So, the other side project I have in mind is a go. Well, if I can get all the stuff I need. I'll keep it a secret since some of my co-workers and friends read my blog. :) I drove all the way out to Costco on my 1/2 hour lunch only to find that I left my wallet on my desk at work. D!OH!!!! Anyway, I'm going to attempt it again today. Hopefully I'll have everything together over the weekend and have them ready for Monday. Monday is also my turn for "12 Days". Every year, our work has a sign up sheet to bring in goodies for everyone during the 12 business days before Christmas. I picked Monday so I'll have all weekend to prepare. But I decided not to bring the traditional sweets. Rather, I'll pick up grapes and cheese...give everyone a break from the sugar.

Well, I better get a move on. Hope you have a great day. Stay away from the evil washing machine. :(

LOL, while it sux, it is a rather funny story. How many things have gotten ruined by those darned washers. They oughta be outlawed! ;)

Good luck with the weigh in tonight. Boy, if I keep eating like I am (whole boxes of chocolates, cookies etc) I'm not going to be able to move! I need to get off my butt.

Interested to hear about the side project that you're managing to fit in...you're one busy woman!

12 Days sounds like a good idea...the folks here at work are not very into the festivites surrounding Xmas...too bad. I'm like a little kid :)

Yeah, yesterday just sucked. I would have just gone to bed and started over the next day!

I am dying to know what else you are working on and don't know where you are ever finding the time!

I got all my cards out and half of the decorations are done ... need more ribbon for the rest, and I am out of glitter :( Sorry!
