One more quick post.

So once Chloe woke up she totally freaked on me. See the reason she woke up was because she was sleeping right under a window that had yet to be cut out of the wallpaper. Yeah that didn't go over so well. She she pulled the wand out on me.I guess she hasn't recovered from last nights late night escapade with her Shop shelving unit. 


So after she calmed down a bit. I found her in her room working on her Book of Shadows. I don't like what I see. It reads.

Make Sara Obey

One Frog eye.
Two Cat toenails.
Rhino Blood
Bat wing

Mix together and inject into fingernail bed.
What the heck she is losing it. Or maybe I am.

Decisions, Decisions....

Yesterday was exhausting. We floored and wallpapered Chloe's bed room. Infact I think Chloe is still asleep. I don't dare wake her up for fear of having a book thrown at me. Maybe if I carefully take everything away. So anyway we had a dilemma. We could not figure out which way looked the best with the wallpaper. No stripes, stripes on top, stripes on bottom, just stripes? Ugh I was so annoyed with Chloe. We decided on stripes on top with a darker slate molding. But we won't worry about the molding until other things are done. I have no idea how I am going to do the doors. Well I kind of do. I just have to do it. I think that that is all the problems I am having. I have to actually do it. OYE! That's the hard part. I have it all in my head it just doesn't work out like I want some times. I just hope this doesn't look like a complete slop job. I only have until May 8 to complete this.

Chloe has been getting on me about it. She keeps saying, "If you don't get this finished we can't take it to the Craft show. Which means my Blue Cat Mercantile will not get recognition." Gee wiz Chloe, do you not think I don't know this? There is so much stress going on right now. Trying to find an income, deadlines, and sick people in the house. I am feeling a little overwhelmed I guess.

Chloe got dressed!

Chloe was getting very perturbed that she has been awake for almost a week and she has not yet had an actual dress. She has been moping around in her unders all this time. So I decided to make her a jumper that goes along with her mercantile. We will be finding flooring and wall paper for her bed room after I complete this post.

We have been busy trying to complete the cleaning project we took on. Mom said that the one condition of her buying the Orchid was cleaning the entire downstairs. EEK! So today I cleared the kitchen table of Half way, and swept the floor. I will do dishes after supper and then move more of my craft things to the new designated area. I am really enjoying this new place I have to finally call my own, until we move that is.

UGH.. Yesterday was a day.



This is the after shot of the project in the video.  Man, that was such a mess. I like it much better this way. And since I cleaned it and made it all pretty. My mom bought me The Orchid. So once this project is complete I will be starting on that one.


I am super excited because I already have a story line figured out in my head. So dorky I know right. 

Today was a good day. Orion behaved very well in Sacrament meeting. Normally he is kicking and screaming to get away. He was still, the only bad part was that he was lying on the floor. But I guess that is better than being disruptive to the rest of the members of the branch. I really enjoyed both talks today.  Even though I didn't get to hear the second part of Sydney's. I liked where it was going. Orion went to Nursery again today. He just doesn't like to stay for Primary. I don't know what to do. I hope I can figure out a way to transition him over to Sunbeams that will let him know that it is just as fun as nursery. So if anyone has any ideas please let me know. Just remember that we are dealing with a child who does not listen to his parents. It is like we are invisible. And he is only 3. What is it going to be like when he is actually a teenager. Scary! Anywho there is a plus. Orion has been reading scriptures every day. I point to the words as we read along. At the rate we are going I am going to need a magnifying glass before we finish the old testament. However he did read 3 this afternoon. So I think every once and a while we will add another verse.
