Some randomness

Random things and pictures I want blog about:

First, I've been taking Yoga again. I started originally in 2005, and it was "Hot Yoga." It really helped me lose weight, if you can keep from passing out from the heat and humidity. Just ask Erin...poor girl, I dragged her to a class three years ago and she about passed out. She was a trooper.

This Summer I started up again, but definitely not for hot yoga, just the regular old "Yoga for all levels." I loved my class this past summer and I signed up again for another two month session. But, my mat is old and the sticky stuff has come off, so when I'd try to do that stupid "downward dog,"

my hands and feet would slip, so with Steve's suggestion I went off to find a new mat. Here it is....

ummm, yeah so here I am looking very excited about my new mat.
Look how buff this dude is!

On to the next thing...
I know I'm biased but I really like this Mary Kay mineral foundation stuff...it isn't heavy and is super easy...I need to get more!

Next...A blog I really love to read...http://howaboutorange.blogspot.com
she has her own fabric, links to tutorials, and I actually really like orange too.

I am soooo going to make these.

another blog Steve and I like to read together...http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/
When professional cakes go very wrong...

This one is a wreck on purpose...Bond, James Bond
Very Cool!

Okay here is another:
Trying to get something for nothing...food that is. I have been trying to do coupons again. Today I got 5 bags of Chex Mix from Walgreen for $1.30. Not too bad...that should last for a week right? No, I'm so not with it in terms of getting great deals. But I will keep trying.
Random pictures taken 2 weeks ago before Erin came out...I was bored in the car.


Another favorite thing...think Christmas if you any of you need ideas...
are these wallets.
I got one in Breckenridge and they sell cheap on ebay. I just think they are too cute!

My project 8 months in the making...

my craft/guest bedroom is 99.9% done. Someday I want to put new carpet and baseboards.
And a new sleeper sofa, and ....

My favorite feature is the mirror, but I made the mistake of telling Erin I wasn't sure how sturdy it was so I think she was afraid it would fall on her while she slept. BUT...no fear Steve put that thing tight in the wall. I had been watching the price of it online for months and when it finally came in I was so happy.

Finally, I've saved the best for last...
do you see it? look closer...

closer...

Yep some kind of nest about the size of a football attached to our house...icky.

I bought two cans of this stuff. The house/car/family adventures never end!
Cue "Indiana Jones" music.
