At last....

We are mostly settled in our little rental in Boise Idaho. Dan is busy trying to be busy at work (little does he know that this is the only time during 'the season' when it's like this and come mid March he will be begging for the relaxed nature of pre-season advertising). I'm still trying to find a job...Dan may disagree but I think over 50 resumes in a month, not to mention the hundreds of posts my mother forwarded me from craigslist that without fail are gone once I get to them. In any event, I keep pretty busy keeping the house in organized chaos, trying to find lamp shades on clearance, large mirrors at the DI or on craigslist, picking up after Pixie (our cute, but foot fettished ferret..I'll post pics later) and playing with Jackson. Not to mention the crafts that have exploded since I now have my own little corner/room (though not well insulated) in the house. I think I have over 6 car seat covers cut out waiting to be sewn, and 3 sets of the cutest pillowcases ready for the serger. So if any of you faithful readers are interested in the perfect baby shower gift or just want to revamp your (or your kids) bedroom...send me a little note with fabric preferences and I'll see what I can do. We'll talk prices later...
In any event...I had best be off to fix dinner, let Pixie out to scamper about the house and be always vigilant in my pursuit of ferret poop in the corner! Happy Days!

Cha-cha-cha-Changes!

Gotta love a little Bowie.

So, it's been almost 3 months since Dan and I got married...and what a ride it's been. We survived our 2nd reception, first Thanksgiving and Christmas without too much grief and/or pain. Dan made out like a bandit at Christmas (see the pictures) and I didn't do too badly myself.

Unfortunately, this living with a guy has some pretty serious side effects...I now know way more then any girl should about the WWE (Raw, Smack Down, TNA)...and have found myself cheering when idiots and jerks get fired. What has my life come to?

At Dan's urging I chopped off my hair...and my sassier side emerged!

We are now down to 1 1/2 short weeks before we pack up our little trailer and hit the road...hopefully we'll be pulling into our cute little rental by the 3rd of February...

Dan's excited to be somewhere that allows pets (ferrets and dogs...and he wants them both) and I'm excited to have a craft room.

Cross your fingers that the snow holds off until we get across Nebraska, Wyoming and Utah...it can dump all it wants once we cross each border...

Hello....

Since Dan and I have been married for just over 2 weeks, we thought it would be a good idea to start a family blog...no promises that posts will be regularly made, or updated...but we're sure going to try. (for those that don't know how we met, etc...check out crazyoldladies.blogspot.com for details)

Latest breaking news....

We've decided to pack up our little one bedroom apartment and move 1800 miles west-to the great state of IDAHO. Don't get too excited, we still have a couple of months before we actually pack up and leave Nebraska, but the decision has been made. And apparently is final. Dan will be working for Jeremiah. As for me...well, I'm not sure where I'll be working, hopefully someplace that pays well until little additions come along. (any thoughts or job suggestions would be appreciated).

Our second reception is this Saturday...we're trying to keep things simple-for those of you attending, please let us know how well we did.

I think that's it for now...we're about to watch an episode of Cold Case and then we're headed to bed---okay sickos to sleep...we're going to bed to SLEEP!
