PMS bullhocky and swap goodies!
I have DMS (during menstral syndrome) and I'm a crabby bitch and wish I was dying. And wishing EVERYONE else on the planet would just SHUT UP, so you can see I'm clearly not fit for company.
On a happier note, Viv got my swap I sent her so I can post pics of it. i think I got everything!
paper mache box, I painted and glittered
A frame to match. All those little pics are vintage halloween inchies. I loved this when it was finished

Bewitched
Viv loves kitties
a wee witchy pin
bunches of treats
vintage hanging
I forgot to take picks on the cards and the martini set. You can see them here. And hear what she thinks of it all.

Fall Festival
It's baaaaaack! I'm less than thrilled, but I always am. And it's on a personal level. It's just to...much? Too loud. Too long. Too greasy. Too crowded. Too EVERYTHING! My girls and T love it, and Tristyn is over the moon! So I'm happy for them!

The illusion of sleep
How tired does your body have to get to require sleep??? I'm on day 3 with no real sleep to speak of and am avidly watching the sun rise. In fact I'm slipping out the front door to go swimming as soon as I close this laptop. Maybe I'll be so tired I'll FUCKING SLEEP when I get home!
God. I miss my 20's!

Giving
Today is October1 and it's the day that we renew our " Giving Fund". Now mind you, in our new, post grandson life, this is not a huge amount. We don't use a percentage formula or a budget plan, T just figures up what we can do our big donations with and gives me the money to distribute. We have 3 we always give to and I try to pick 2 other different ones each year, and then the remainder I pick randomly online and spread it thin!!! By tomorrow it'll all be gone. Anyway here are some great places you might be interested in spreading it thin at!

Craftalicious!!!!!!
I'm kinda in a crafting frenzy around here right now. For instance I spent 9 hours today AFTER swimming in my room working or on my couch doing this!
A little project for Jo. Actually turning out quite lovely! Dad brought me a HUGE bin of yarn from a yard sale the other day. He paid 20 dollars for it and I'm guessing it's got a minimum of 200 dollars of mohair in it! YAY!!!
I know!!! Are you jealous yet! And here's some little dishcloths I just finished!
My other big score from Dad this month was 11 sets of Stamping Up stamps (including 3 alphabets!) for 10 bucks!!!!
But the real exciting thing that happened today was I got my SWEET and SINISTER SWAP!!! OMG my partner VIV ( check out her blog!!!) is a genius!!! I loved EVERY single thing! EVERY one!!! Just look!
Look at all the Sweetness!!!
Out of the box!
Handsome man!!!
Candy Corn! BTW VIV, Tammys Fav!!!
All these little sweeties!!! LOVE!
This beautiful bunting says Halloween!!! I can not wait to hang it!!!
Pin cushion!!!
LOVE THIS!!!
And this! Which Tristyn is already trying to steal!! I love it all Viv. Thank you for being such an awesome partner. BTW:: I'm hurrying!

Angies newest update!
A message from Tracy:
WELL, ANGIE HAS HAD RADIATION FOR 6 DAYS NOW. YESTERDAY THEY DISCOVERED HER SPACER (IMPLANT) FOR THE BREAST RECONSTRUCTION SURGERY IS LEAKING THE SALINE. THEY WOULDN'T HAVE PUT IT IN IF THEY KNEW SHE'D NEED RADIATION.( BUT RADIATION DOES DAMAGE THE IMPLANT) SO TOMORROW SHE HAS TO HAVE IT REMOVED. AND THEN ON THURSDAY, SHE STARTS HER NEXT ROUND OF CHEMO, 10 ROUNDS, ONCE EVERY 3 WEEKS. I'M GOING WITH HER BOTH DAYS THIS WEEK. SHE SEEMS TO BE FEELING BETTER AND WEANING HERSELF OFF MOST OF HER PAIN MEDS. WELL THATS ALL FOR NOW. IT IS FREEZING UP HERE. ABOUT 11 DEGREES IN THE MORNING, 24 IN THE DAY. LOVE, TRA

Dad's Ok and yarn coma
Dad's angiothingy went well yesterday. No overt occlusion, just some thickening(less than 50%) Other than his weight, his big problem is the emphysema,which is fairly well advanced, so we'll be trying some new drugs for this. But overall, the news is good!
I'm still crocheting. A scarf and hat set start to finish most days. I'm starting to feel like I'm coated in fiber(I wish!). I'm crocheting so much, I feel like I could do it in my sleep. Erin and Tristyn are still moving in(I mean in the process) so we're working on that. So, fo us, it's been almost coma like here!
Here's my current wish list!
Can't you just think of all the yumminess you could make with this!

Dear Tristyn,
Dear Tristyn,
I'm sitting here in my living room, on the couch. But if you really thought about it, you'd already know that. It's November 4, 2008, a day I hope will be a date for us all to remember. Our country just elected our first African American President. Barack Obama.
I am thrilled about this development, for so many different reasons that I'm not sure where to start. I'm happy for us as a nation, because he really is the best man for the job. I' m happy for our military, because there is light at the end of the tunnel. I'm thrilled for the African Americans who might see this as the final step out of the nightmare of prejudice. I'm thrilled for the gay and lesbian people, who might see some real strides for equality in this nation. I'm thrilled for the rest of the world, who I hope will see this as a giant step out of our black hole of political hell, that Americans have been in for the last 8 years. I'm thrilled for all you children that will benefit from the knowledge that you CAN do anything.
But, for myself, I'm thrilled because your world just got a little safer. And bigger. And brighter. You, my sweet boy may never have to feel or in any way experience the injustices of racism. You may NEVER have to walk with fear in your heart because the color of your skin, or because of your beliefs. I sit here with real hope in my heart for the first time in so long, it hurts to think about it. I sit here in full awe of The Audacity of Hope. And my personal hope, is for you,my sweet boy.

Tracy says...
well angie is home and feeling pretty good. sore at her incision site and under her arm. the lymph node results are in and there were 2 sentinal nodes and 3 regular nodes that were cancerous. so she will be having to go through radiation. it has to start 2 to 5 weeks after surgery, depending on how fast she is heeling. the doctor removed one of her drain tubes today and said she is heeling wonderfully. even though she did have her reconstructive surgery started it is now on hold for 9-12 months. they will pretty much have to start over. this was an emotionally hard day again for angie, but shes keeping her head up and says 'it's got to be done' . next week she should have the other drain tube removed and her doctors should know more details on the radiation schedule. typically it is 5 days a week for 5 weeks. keep angie in your prayers. (i've got my guardian angel helping hers out) i'll keep everyone posted. thanks, tracy

Catching up...LOLOLOLOLOLOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL ( yes, that's hysteria!)
Here's a few things I have'nt blogged about, which I'll try and catch up on now!
Tristyns Christmas Program
Yes, he did have one and it was on December 3 and yes I did take a really hideous bunch of pics but I'll try and show you anyway. He was so bad. He jumped around and wiggled and pushed until we were in pain from laughter. I do want to say that his music teacher,Mrs. Batts was phenomenal!!! The program was enjoyable and she was engaged with the kids,it was great!
Also, as some of you may know, Janice and Patrick have split up. That leaves Jannie in Indy by herself. I'm not thrilled with that at all, I mean she is a hickerbilly!!! So here's her Christmas present from me and T
Who is living here until Christmas! Yipee. She's very sweet natured and pretty well behaved now if we could just get that potty training thing down...
And this sweet gift came from Vanessa after I won her on her blog giveaway. Go over and check out Miss Vanessa's art, it's amazing! And thank you again Vanessa, I love her! BTW, she told me a BIG secret today!
Miss Dilly Crumpet Spoonface!
And did I tell you there is nothing in this world that I Love more than this BOY!
Yes that is my PAINT shirt, or rather one of many

Want to know what Tristyn did today??
He wrecked his Mother's car. And by car I mean her convertible! And he HIT another car! LOLOLOL Seriously, he did. He put his mom's car in reverse and backed it out of the driveway and into the neighbors SUV which was turning into the drive. Everyones OK and the only damage was to Erin's car and Tristyns psyche!

New "mydeals"
Tristyn has just exploded in the last three weeks!!! It's like his little mind has just woke up and is screaming "look,look,look" . I have to confess I'm enjoying it alot. I love watching him make all thse new connections, like his leapster, that he's had for a year and refused to touch! and books!!! His new favorite thig is reading!!! (be still my heart!) As well as being read to!!! It might all be too much for my heart.
He cracks us up!!! "Nana, I got a great mydea!!!" we all just fall out laughing.
Even T is getting in on the cold weather activities!

The Cooking Guy!
All of the sudden, at the great ,late, age of 5 Tristyn wants to play "cooking". We're all a little flummoxed by this, as he NEVER wanted to before. This game usually entails putting a white klennex on his shirt,and him taking orders. He then goes to the TV(his order window) where he tells the "chep" his order, which is always,no matter what you order,chicken nuggets and fries! Soooo we decided he should really cook...
yes, my kitchen is a mess, but really, I have more important things to do!

The Return of the Daughter
I am a 46, almost 47 year old Nana,who has lived without children for some time now! I often have my grandson,even for days at a time, but we've been without girls for awhile now. But this week, Erin and Tristyn moved home.
And we're thrilled! We really are, it's nice having them safely at home. And, of course Tristyn thinks he already lives here. So that's nice and everyone's comfy here.
We're used to little boy messes anyway, and have lots of measures to keep them in check. But OMG, I forgot about girl messes!!!!

If you know me at all you've probably guessed that this lack of posting is more than just my usual laziness. It is. In fact I'm feeling a bit( you may translate that to mean, ALOT) depressed. Enough that I've had to start taking paxil again. Because you know that with me,everything is a fubar, it seems I've also had a big dose of Seasonal Affective Disorder rear it's ugliness! Yay, me!!! I really have suffered with this as long as I can remember, but each fall, I fool myself into thinking that it's really gone for good, but 46 years and still no go. Ahhhh wellllll, there's always next year. The really great news is that you know this will pass. It will pass and just leave the regular old depression and then I can fool myself into thinking that, once again I don't need anti-depressants. Gives you something to work for.
Anyway on to BETTER things. OMG you need to read this book. I know I've been slow getting to it, but you know it's an Oprah book, and i HATE being told what I need to read. But shit this was great!! I gave up the midnight showing of Twilight because I could'nt bear to stop reading. It's that great!!! I HATE it when Oprah's right! The wee bonus? It's set in Wisconsin, right about where Tra lives. Really READ IT!
I'm off to crochet, cause y'all know how that lifts your spirits, right?

Catching up...LOLOLOLOLOLOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL ( yes, that's hysteria!)
Here's a few things I have'nt blogged about, which I'll try and catch up on now!
Tristyns Christmas Program
Yes, he did have one and it was on December 3 and yes I did take a really hideous bunch of pics but I'll try and show you anyway. He was so bad. He jumped around and wiggled and pushed until we were in pain from laughter. I do want to say that his music teacher,Mrs. Batts was phenomenal!!! The program was enjoyable and she was engaged with the kids,it was great!
Also, as some of you may know, Janice and Patrick have split up. That leaves Jannie in Indy by herself. I'm not thrilled with that at all, I mean she is a hickerbilly!!! So here's her Christmas present from me and T
Who is living here until Christmas! Yipee. She's very sweet natured and pretty well behaved now if we could just get that potty training thing down...
And this sweet gift came from Vanessa after I won her on her blog giveaway. Go over and check out Miss Vanessa's art, it's amazing! And thank you again Vanessa, I love her! BTW, she told me a BIG secret today!
Miss Dilly Crumpet Spoonface!
And did I tell you there is nothing in this world that I Love more than this BOY!
Yes that is my PAINT shirt, or rather one of many

Want to know what Tristyn did today??
He wrecked his Mother's car. And by car I mean her convertible! And he HIT another car! LOLOLOL Seriously, he did. He put his mom's car in reverse and backed it out of the driveway and into the neighbors SUV which was turning into the drive.

New "mydeals"
Tristyn has just exploded in the last three weeks!!! It's like his little mind has just woke up and is screaming "look,look,look" . I have to confess I'm enjoying it alot. I love watching him make all thse new connections, like his leapster, that he's had for a year and refused to touch! and books!!! His new favorite thig is reading!!! (be still my heart!) As well as being read to!!! It might all be too much for my heart.
He cracks us up!!! "Nana, I got a great mydea!!!" we all just fall out laughing.
Even T is getting in on the cold weather activities!

The Cooking Guy!
All of the sudden, at the great ,late, age of 5 Tristyn wants to play "cooking". We're all a little flummoxed by this, as he NEVER wanted to before. This game usually entails putting a white klennex on his shirt,and him taking orders. He then goes to the TV(his order window) where he tells the "chep" his order, which is always,no matter what you order,chicken nuggets and fries!
yes, my kitchen is a mess, but really, I have more important things to do!

The Return of the Daughter
I am a 46, almost 47 year old Nana,who has lived without children for some time now! I often have my grandson,even for days at a time, but we've been without girls for awhile now. But this week, Erin and Tristyn moved home.
And we're thrilled! We really are, it's nice having them safely at home. And, of course Tristyn thinks he already lives here. So that's nice and everyone's comfy here.
We're used to little boy messes anyway, and have lots of measures to keep them in check. But OMG, I forgot about girl messes!!!!
