Bead 298 R.I.P. bush

gross-ish weird day.
we lost 2 bushes......our neighbors mother-in-law completely butchered them down.
seriously they were at least 5 feet tall and beginning to thrive.
mowed over and cut down in their prime. even though they are clearly on our property line.
the one we are really sad about is a butterfly bush that we had gotten mama for mothers day a few years back. no apologies and to add insult to injury she grazed our other bushes too.
life I guess.
I'm going to try to buy her a new one tomorrow.
bush bead in honor of the lost souls today.

have a good memorial day

Bead 290

Today began kind of......well to be perfectly honest with you horribly.
I had to get up super early to go to the dumb ceremony, I slept  through the two hour ride and disgruntley got through it, but as soon as I got my award I left. seriously almost running to the car. Afterwards as bribed we had THE BEST FREAKING CHINESE FOOD OF MY LIFE! it was a buffet, super clean, and super yummy!!!!
Luckily the remainder of the day was a total adventure. Including trips to a fabric store and craft store. I was able to purchase three different really cool fabrics, two types of clay, black teeny canvases, a large white natural wool skein of yarn, and some paint in anticipation for a project I am backing on kickstarter .
On the way back home we also went to the super big farmers market where I got herbs, dyeing supplies, pork rinds,  and fresh veggies. The last part of the journey ended with us going to an estate sale where I found some amazing stuff (I'll show you soon on Dinosaurs and Bunny's rawr!!!!).
tofu cube in honor of the most awesomist Chinese food of my life!

hope your weekend is going super well, I will be sharing some cool stuff on my other blogs.

Bead 288 hedgy

madwomen.
that should be like my middle name.

made a cake today, it was from a box.
so it feels like a cheater cake.....
made my go-to buttercream, it was from scratch.
so it feels like sugar, chocolate syrup, and marshmellows had a frosting baby....
so in total I have mixed emotions about this cake. damn.

Today I have still been knitting my bee keeper quilt, it is being stored in a pickle jar.

I have also been making things for the awesome dude that has been helping on every one of my school papers this year. well I'm making stuff for his daughter, thus far I have crocheted a panda and am working on a hedgy coin purse.
I love all animals but hedgehogs are soooooo cool!

Bead 284 & Bead 285

I hope y'all had a beautiful mothers day. mine was alright~~
I made my mom a chocolate souffle for brunch, my sister and big bro visited. and mama and I started to work on the garden.
LOVE AND APPRECIATE YOU A TON MAMA!
EVEN THOUGH YOU FRUSTRATE ME SOMETIMES , I BET YOU FEEL THE SAME WAY ABOUT ME TOO...
a heart flower for yesterday's bead

today I felt ultra crummy.
It was super dark and rainy all day long.
the bunnies weren't in the mood to play.
storming off and on all the time, and I believe one of my incisions is becoming infected. no one is validating my point, and just listing to what I know for a fact am feeling.
different-reds bead today.
I'm trying so hard not to be angry or upset but it isn't working too well....
I know me. How can they know when they aren't feeling my pain??

I don't know....
hopefully tomorrow will be better

Bead 283- 120 decisions

mama and dad went to yard sales the other day they bought tons of cool stuff and got me a little charlie brown statue thingy on the bottom the slogan of my life is written "I made 120 decisions today...all of them wrong."
so 120 bead that day
-m

Bead 282

since I got the surgery I have lived in nothing but ovesized shirts and workout stretch shorts. my insisions still bother me and  I feel like a balloon combined with one of those poor little tortises on nat-geo that are flipped up side down and can't flip themselves right side up. It is cool for now but this could end badly like for the real tortoises... Hope the birds don't get me? The air or whatever junk they put in my belly is still there and shifts around often making me look lumpy. So as of right now I'm a lumpy tortoise. booo....
stretchy shorts bead today

little suckish break

I'm still recovering from surgery that I just had yesterday, I have  made beads for both days but probably won't post them here till I feel better and can sit up for more then a few minutes.
rest assured that beads will be done during these days.
I feel gross.....
3, one inch incisions , two on either side of my tummy and one ruining my epicly awesome bellybutton.....I haven't slept well and this is the first time I've been on my laptop in like 3 days......gross and drugged.....drrrruggggeedddddddd.....
hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Bead 279 Ignorance is never bliss...

Disappointed right now...
"Amendment one" was passed today in my state, approving the constitutional amendment defining marriage as union between man and a woman......It effected so much more then just Gay marriage. Luckily, this bigotry has caught the eyes of national news stations and has now been brought to the attention of the world.
Disappointed...... today I got sick and wasn't able to get out and vote. I had a chance to vote earlier and should have taken it.
Disappointed in myself, and Disappointed in this state.
What is really "wrong" with people is their inability to love and accept their fellow man for who they are. I love God and I love and believe there is good in others. But we cannot change the past, I pray that tomorrow will be better for everyone.
I hope that this will not continue. That people will practice what they preach and we will be able to accept one another regardless of whom they chose to love.
On another note  tomorrow by lunchtime I will be cyst-less. I'm a bit nervous, I've felt gross all day long and haven't had the feeling to do anything today.
today's bead says love will win.....
because ultimately it will.


hope your tomorrow is lovely

Bead 278

I am loved!
today a girl in my mothers class brought cupcakes coated in glitter for me as a feel better soon gift and a good luck for my upcoming surgery, THEY WERE AMAZING!

so of course as a thank you I had to make something in return so I decided to knit up this little papa for her backpack

today I also color coordinated my stash


I'm not sure what to do with myself till my surgery so this is about as good as it gets. I still haven't gone food shopping for the things I would like to make and it is to freakishly warm in the house to even think about turning on the oven or stove top all day. The bunnies both are doing very well and are loving having a personal fan for each of them during the day, and were lumps all day long. Similarly to me.
a glittery cupcake bead today.


On a separate note I'm not sure how beading will get done once I get my surgery and am still hopped up on pain-killers, but If you bare with me I'm sure we will find a way to cross that bridge once we get there. ^_^

Have a happy tomorrow lovies

just the cruds bead today!
mustard colored-ish creature...
he might be a crud but atleast he is a cute one.

My bead is using some of the yarn purchased today enclosed in the chunky gray yarn used in the center of the photo oh, and its all cut in half to see the prettiness inside

Bead 274

Tired right now. Today, today, today was so nice, yet so long. First morning doctors appointment went well and didn't take too long. Afterwards Mama and I went to Earth Fare where I got granola, half-and-half, a small mortar and pestle, and assorted bulk nuts. We also went to the salvation Army Store where I got some nice shiny beads, which helped me continue on to my second doctors appointment. The office is being renovated and now looks as if it were decorated by jack the ripper! ha ha dusty cement floors, and plastic cover about 80% of the place and the office space has been cut in half, so there are prego people everywhere! And also quite an amount of loud construction workers, Mama and I tried to joke with the doctor how I loved the renovations done to the place, it was so "cereal killer chic". Unfortunately he has no sense of humor.....so that did put a damper on things.......
But whateves, I continued on my happy way , it was freakishly hot today but Mama being my knight in shimmering armor went out and got ice cream pops for everyone a few hours ago
so pretty nice day today.
partially shimmering bead using some of the shiny beads I bought today.

have a bitching Friday !

Bead 273

Hello rhombuses and circles,
I hope you are doing oh so very well on this fine Wednesday, today went allot better then yesterday. Less harassing phone calls from various medical professionals and government-hopeful "professionals" (and their equally annoying constituents). The one bad thing that happened today is that it was freakishly hot, humid, and sticky in my house. I sware a portal to hell opened up smack-dab in the middle of my castia. The bunnies were almost complete blobs today, melting* and sleeping all over the place then occasionally catching short burst of energy. Of which krackers decided to channel into breaking into people rooms and not leaving until I skooched her out physically, she proceeded to do this about 5 times , the last time remaining under my bed until I dragged out every single box and bag to take her out by hand and put her in her house. Peanutbutter is perking up thank goodness, and thank you for your good vibes and prayers they were greatly appreciated. I didn't do much today, mainly knitted.But I feel better today.
Mama found a slug, I LOVE HIM. So he shall be my bead today.

well sort-of, its how I see him in my head anyways

Two doctors appointments tomorrow... boo. But I believe I shall survive!!
Have a happy tomorrow

*The bunnies always have adequate water, food, and air conditioning. even if we "people" don't; the bunnies are always taken care of and won't overheat*
