Ok I had plans today to get the other part of a wall-o-canvas I have had half way completed.  Well, it didn’t go so well.  I pained the bases of them last night before my card class.  So today I started inking my papers and such only to find that one of the papers I had was the wrong one.  So, due to the cost of gas, and the lack of desire to haul three children through the scrapbook store, I ordered what I needed online.  Yes, I only needed three sheets of paper, and yes I paid to ship it.  I did order other things to justify my shipping.  That being said, I ordered from a store in Michigan (www.lifetimemoments.com) so the shipping wouldn’t be crazy and I should get it pretty darn quick.  And really when you think about the cost of gas around here, well, it makes paying for the shipping not all the crazy.  I mean a gallon of gas here is around $3.50 here or a little more.  So I equate shipping dollars in gallons of gas.  So it took me two gallons of gas to ship my paper and other stuff I ended up getting.  The store I would have driven to for just the three sheets of paper is 15 miles from me, so I’m ok with paying the shipping if you figure my gas at $3.50 a gallon-ish and my time.  It is a sad sad day when people limit their activity all because of gas prices!

Got my hair cut today, and I needed it bad!  Some of the gals in card class last night had their photo taken with me.  Yikes, I don’t even want to know how wild and crazy my hairdo was in that photo.  Dilly says to me, “Mommy, you have big hair today.”  Too funny.  I wear my hair kinda messy/spiked all over.  It is a little wild, but I like it that way.  It shows the inner me, without showing too much inner me if you know what I mean.

Today I picked Ethan up at school in the street rod.  The timing could not have been any closer to perfect.  I got there, parked right in front where I usually do.  The moment I shut the car off the school held a firedrill.  So all the kids, including Ethan passed by the car.  I think Ethan about died from excitement.  The smile on his face was HUGE.  I don’t know that I have seen him that excited since he got his Corvette for his 5th birthday.  All the kids were impressed and full of questions for Ethan.  The kid was just glowing.

Ok I’m missing the lost “catch up” episode, so I had better get moving.  I hardly ever watch it as it is on opposite another show I like a little better, so this is my chance to get caught up I guess.

Later!
