clearing out

so, I'm trying to clear up some space in this incredibly cluttered room. I came across things I had put up for sale long ago, but forgot about. I have some cross-stitch fabric, some thread, an embroidery pattern, and a pair of Keen mary janes. Please check out my blog to see the stuff and get prices. http://goodknits.com/blog/for-sale/

I'll probably add more later!

also!

I just finished uploading some photos to my flickr account. I'd post more, but I can hear Andrew getting tired of Nathan's shenanigans already. click this link to get to my flickr page.

love it.

i don't usually post music videos, but i can't get this out of my head...



i woke up today in a very simple way
in the morning all that i could do was sing
i was thinking of things the blue ocean brings
the way it glows, the way it always knows
that when you lose something like a golden diamond ring
you will know that it will show the way the ocean always knows

yes i understand that i cannot live on this land
but does that truly mean that i have seen all that can be seen
as for now i will stay in the oven i will bake
as you sit down to pray into the river i will wade
i woke up today in a very simple way
i woke up today in a very simple way
i woke up today in a very simple way

be a match

from june 8 - 22 the fee to tissue type and join the bone marrow registry is being covered (or until they reach 46,000 new donors). I just signed up for the kit which is some swabs to swab your cheek. it even comes with a prepaid package to send back. you're not obligated to donate, but if you're a match...I don't see why you wouldn't.

there are now 2 ways to donate. the traditional way entails being put under anesthesia or epidural and marrow being extracted from the pelvic bone. you may feel some soreness for a few days or more after. HOWEVER, a patient's doctor most commonly requests a peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) donation, which is an outpatient procedure. you can read all about it at the website: http://www.marrow.org

go...join.

I finished the cupcakes for my boys' birthday party (in 3 days!!!). I made 14 and am thinking of making one or two more, in case we get any surprise guests.

assembling cuppy cakes

I finally finished attaching all the little cherries to the cupcake tops last night, while finishing up last season of Dexter. A few minutes ago, I started assembly. I stopped after just one because I thought it was so cute and had to share.

despite the fact that I pretty much despise glue, this wasn't too hard to put together. I guess using a gun to apply glue is easier than a tube. plus, burning your finger tips = FUN! it keeps you alert.


party this weekend! eeeee!

I began working on these yesterday afternoon, crocheting whenever I had a little break. they’re surprisingly quick to make. I’ll be using some yogurt cups to make little containers [for candy, i think] as party favors for the boys’ birthday party next month. I'm undecided on the base. my first thought was to crochet them with some brown (chocolate cupcakes, anyone?) yarn, but my aunt said i should just use some decorative paper. that would be easiest, but I like the cushy feeling of yarn cupcakes!

saturday at the park

a few photos! my amigos on flickr probably saw these already, but I wanted to post them here. I didn't get any nice pictures of Andrew on his birthday, so these will be his omg1year! photos. On the anniversary of one of the most amazing days of my life, I was rather mopey. I just can't believe it's been a year already. I'm constantly wishing this kid will just GROW UP and stop being such a clingy baby, but then night time comes and i find myself just staring at him sleeping, or rubbing his belly, or kissing his cheeks, or *gasp* wanting him to reach out for me to give him one last hug before he goes down for a few hours. I don't want him to grow into a cuddle-hating toddler.:(

he's still not walking, though he can stand fairly well.

yesterday- 365.110: my baby turned 11 months old! he cawls and stands and makes a mess and all that fun stuff!
365.110: 11 months


day before yesterday- 365.109: blanket, completed! It looks like this when it's unfolded. Its recipient is yet to be determined. I had been wanting to make a giant-granny square afghan for a while (like this one @ the purl bee), but then I decided I didn't really like it with the colors I had, so I switched patterns at the last moment.

you can see my project 365 photos for day 85 & 86 on Flickr.

365.87: garage sale
365.87: garage sale: saturday, we spent a few hours at a garage sale at grandma's workplace. after saying goodbye, we went to dinner and then to a nearby park that had some really sweet trees. nathan likes this park only because of the slide. he must have gone down 50 times! mostly head first and most of those times i winced because i kept thinking he would kick the kid behind him.


+ a lot. it's late and bbs are sleepin' )

I'm a little late to the game, but I'm now reading Twilight. I saw the movie and thoroughly disliked it and didn't see the big deal, so my [little] sister lent me her copy. it's redeemed itself, I suppose; I'm about 75% done after only one night of reading, so that's gotta mean something, huh?

after a lot of elevation and ice packs (frozen veggies and then some weird gel thing), my toes are a little bit better. i can walk, but i have to keep my foot crooked, or else it feels like my toe is going to explode. i don't believe anything's broken though. i didn't go to a doctor because funds are low and i have no health insurance. i'll think about it, if i still can't walk right in a few days.

i snapped this after dinner. notice we took out our bed frame! we gave it to my sister. mattress on floor prevents baby nose dives to the ground when i turn my back for .4 seconds.

365.79: toddler thrift store finds
grandpa gave him $5 to use at the thrift store. usually that means a lot of random toys in bags, but this time he found this sweet motorcycle and couldn't bear to part with it. he didn't have enough for the hat, so the lady GAVE it to him! he was so jazzed! he kept saying he was a cowboy now, even though it clearly isn't a cowboy hat.

i asked him to smile.:/
