Ten on Tuesday

1| Check out my "Bionic" Leg. I can't bend my knee, at all. It's pretty rad. (or not) 

2| Let me tell you just how much fun it is to ride the metro bus and not be able to bend your leg at all to get it out of the way of people getting on and off. Crap.

3| Aquaman's been awesome. He pretty much lays by me from the time I get home till I go to bed, and I feel like he's just trying to soak up any pain I have.
4| Best. Dog. Ever.

5| Eric's been awesome too, he waits on me hand and foot (no puns intended).

6| Oh and since I haven't "said" it yet. I actually tore my ACL just a little, and damnaged some goodies inside my knee. Yay for Derby!

7| I plan on reading my 7 this week (and weekend) a lot. Since you know, I can't move much.

8| Maybe some of my crafty bits will get done too.

9| I really don't have much to report as this has absorbed my life now.

10| I did watch the Roast of Charlie Sheen last night - funnnny.....

What the What?
Oh Abbs, I'm so sorry. Aquaman does seem to be helping some though. I guess I'll stop crying around about my broken toes.

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

Thoughts of the American Pride Persuasion

I sat, mesmerized as I watched the “Breaking News” of the past 24 hours – Osama Bin Laden, Dead. What? I can’t really deny my mixed feelings about posting today. I don’t normally jump into the political rings but I can’t deny the HUGE news that swept our nation yesterday. So, this post has been thought out, a lot, typed really slowly, every word, intentional. Which is a huge leap from my normal ramblings of a Monday morning. We were sitting on the couch watching a movie, the movie ended and Eric turned on the news, and we watched, in awe. Just like September 11 th , I’ll always remember where I was when I heard the news. I can’t say I was ready to strap on a flag superhero cape style, and run up and down the street chanting “USA… USA… USA” like hundreds and thousands of other Americans in DC and New York, but then again, I wasn’t near ground zero, in Pennsylvania or at the pentagon the day that Osama Bin Laden became a household name. The American in me wants to be happy and
