A Haunted Christmas

This what you get when you give the camera to one of the kids and do the driveby christmas lights thing :)

I like em!

Oh!! What to get the kids???? For Christmas? I mean they never really play with the toys they ask for or get. When they do it isn't as the toy is intended! It's always a joke to get the kids cardboard boxes and it's the truth! I went online to look for some cardboard houses, ya know? And it pisses me off that they want 80 some odd bucks for a cardborad house! Come on. It's cardboard, dammit. It's a plain cutout. I can see spending 25.oo on a cardboard house but this business about 80 bucks just makes me so mad! The nerve. Anyway, I had to let that out.

I was noticing in my Etsy shop that I do not have the variety of plush that I have had because of sales :)
I am feeling the need to bring in some different styles. I have a boatload of past doodles that I think I will work from.
We've had snow in Portland lately but no real pile up of it! I want a really white Christmas!! We shall see what the rest of the week brings.

I hope everyone is having an enjoyable December :)

Who's a dud?

Me. I need a swift kick in the behind. I'm such a poor blogger! Everyone else has Christmassy cheer happenin' .

Here are a few shots of our handmade christmas ornaments.

Now we gotta go to Blockbuster...we need some christmas shows and such. :)

BRRRRRRRR

It's 27 degrees here. That's damned cold for me. When the wind blows the chill factor is 7 degrees. That hurts. This is the coldest I ever remember Oregon.

I've got some new ones to sew shut later. I thought I would get them up today but we went out and just got back.

Christmas is in ten days, huh?

Posy blog

I'm going to try to find cute blogs to show everyone and also post a happy Christmassy photo a day. Something I make or do. Enough of this scrooge business!!!

This is a pic from Posy Blog. So dreamy. It looks like a house one of monster girls would live in!

New Girls

I think I make way more girl plush than boy ones :)
I gotta work on that.
ANywhoo, I am having a little problem right now uploading from Etsy but it's something I did, not Etsy. They will be up soon.
Spirits are better today :)

The season

One of the kids took this photo :)

When is bedtime??? This getting dark early is SO HARD for me! It feels like bedtime and I take a look at the clock and it's 5:00!!!! Man....I hardly have the energy to stay up after they go to bed. I have a book and a few movies to see later. That's all I may do.

I had a ton of Christmas spirit during Thanksgiving, lol, now I am struggling to get back that magic. What the hail?

I'm a scrooge today I'd better just leave :)

Night.
