New keyboard just arrived. Thank you Fed Ex! Now I can finally upload my pics to flickr, blog, and answer emails. But, I’m running out the door to go to the park with Candice and kids. So my love affair with the internets will have to wait just a few hours longer.
Bless Your Heart

I just got home from my first Bunco game party night. It was a lot of fun and I won $12.50! Not too shabby baby! We all take $5 in ones for the kitty. There were 12 of us and we rotate who hosts. I’ll be hosting in October. You know I had to pick a month where I could do a fun theme! -
I was at a Pampered Chef party tonight when the girl sitting next to me just handed me primo blog material.
Sabrina, our consultant was showing us the batter bowls
and mentioned how you can make a Barbie cake with them. The girl next to me, let’s call her Jill, leaned over to me and askedBut won’t her hair catch on fire?
Me: Well, you’d put the candles down at the base of the cake, not near her head.
(Jill: huffs, and looks at me like I’m the stupid one)
I mean in the oven.

OK, this is it. Last call to get on the Christmas card list! Leave a comment or email me at heyshanny at gmail dot com to get on the list.

We’ve got the tree up and it will be decorated by the end of the week. Once that’s done it will be time for the pugs’ Christmas photo shoot. I have to be organized here people. I’ve got a bajillion growth charts to paint, Irish people coming to stay with me, and a house to decorate for Christmas. CSP and I have been productive though. We finally hung all the curtains for the downstairs, and the ones for our bedroom. We’ve still got the ghetto paper shades up in the guest rooms (sorry Nanny & Irish people) and the bonus room. But I just recently decided on the paint colors for those rooms so I don’t have curtains yet.
Our UPS guy is starting to deliver Christmas presents! Now I need to start wrapping. He also delivered an order from Method. I absolutely LOVE their peppermint vanilla scent.
So when I saw that they are giving away a cool bag with a $20 purchase I was all over it. I love a bonus!CSP knows I do all our Christmas shopping online, yet he still squeaks and squawks when he comes home to a pile of boxes on the front porch. Plus, it’s gotta be better for the environment for me to shop online right? I’m not using gas, we recycle all the packaging the presents come in, and I’m not standing in a checkout line huffing and puffing under mounds of presents thereby emitting extra CO2. You’re welcome, Earth.
I’m trying to come up with something cute for this year’s pug photo. Stay tuned and watch yer mailboxes!

Did y’all know that you can save money for your future children via Upromise? I’ve been saving for Ling Ling for over a year now. And you can save for multiple kids. And you don’t have to be related. This is a great time to sign up if you haven’t already. You can thank me later when you’ve got millions in your Upromise account! :)

I can’t believe it’s already just about December. I haven’t written the first Christmas card or decorated or put up the tree or even taken the pugs’ Christmas photo. But I have finished my Christmas shopping! I’m soooo not finished with my Christmas crafting of presents, but I have time. Next weekend my Nanny & this couple from Ireland are coming to stay for the weekend. Lots to do between now and then. Luckily CSP is off tomorrow, so we’ll hopefully get the tree up then. I hope all of you are getting your houses decorated so you can participate in Christmas BPOH!
