random busi-ness

Wow. It's been more than two weeks since I've blogged. Ouch. I'm pretty sure that's a record since I began this lovely life script. Here's a quick description (and a few correlating photos) of my last few weeks. Hold tight. It's a slight whirlwind of randomness.

• I found cute chairs for my living room (pictures to come when I finish my living room...or at least get closer.)

• Graham fell down and bonked his head.

• I sewed a few pillows to brighten up my living room.

• Parker hit his head on the train table inducing a lump and bruise that would have everyone in Kanawha county wondering if I beat my child. No, really, you should see the looks I've gotten. Thanks Parker. (He's holding a football ice pack on his injury.)

• I reupholstered a bench in my living room...and managed to staple my hand. And yes, it hurts as bad as it sounds like it would, especially when you are using an industrial stapler. I had to pull the staple out of my hand muscle. Super fun. At least I like the outcome...of the bench, that is. (This wretched i-phone picture makes me crave a nice camera...one day.)

• Graham fell. 

• I made a few valentine shirts for friends and family.

• Graham slipped and fell.

• Our Family joined the YMCA in hopes of...well, I don't have super high hopes. Health is number one, right?

• I organized and hosted a Valentine party for my 3 year old's preschool class. All the teachers of preschool children deserve gold medals.

• Graham fell yet again.

• I made a few necklaces using material and gumballs. What? I saw it on a blog. I liked the necklaces but feel they lacked just a little something. I'll figure it out.

• David got sick.

• Parker got sick

• Graham got sick, really sick...and then fell. He got to sleep with me for 2 nights. He was struggling to breathe and I felt more comfortable with him close to me.

• I got a tooth excavated and packed with metal. I'm sorry if it's a bit dramatic, but it sounds more accurate than "got a filling."

• I went blonder, and am really enjoying something different for a change.

• Graham fell.

• I had a wonderful Valentine dinner with the best husband in the world.

• I enjoyed a birthday lunch with David and my wonderful WV family. Happy birthday, Babe, you truly are the best!

• Graham fell.

Ok, so there you have it. A lot of sewing, decorating, falling, and celebrating going on in my life. It's a complicated good life.
