Hmmm….

That’s it, I’ve got it.
I want to open a vegetarian sushi place called Nemo’s. We’ll even serve on little fish plates that have lucky fins.
mmm, sushi.

Friday, whew!

Jim and I just had a full conversation about the difficulties humans would face if they had to poop upright. Ahh, reason #1128633 why I married him: you don’t get this type of conversation with just anyone.
I was able to squeeze a visit to our favorite thrift store last Tuesday. I’m building quite the [...]

Sleepy Nessa

Don’t have too much time, got to rush off to class, but here are a few things that made starting classes again bearable.
Etsy finds:
Toothy Pincushion – hah, I’d love to show up to my Basic Pattern Making with this!
Luva Hoot Owl Tote – perfect for carrying around school books
Chocolate Cherry Pecan Bark – isn’t [...]

September? Already?

It’s that time again…I’m starting classes on Monday and while one part of me is excited, the other side is anxious because it’s just one more ball to add to my already somewhat unstable juggle. The little motivational speaker that sits right behind my left ear, sure has his job cut out for him [...]

The Switchboards Are Down

Just in case anyone is wondering, The Switchboards are down due to us transferring the domain from one server to another. Thanks to everyone’s generous donations, we were able to get a lovely hosting plan that gave us plenty of bandwidth to grow into!
We should be back within 48 hours, better than ever!

Good Day Sunshine!

First of all, good news…Zefram is now home where he belongs. Unfortunately for him, his “manhood” didn’t survive the safe journey home. Don’t worry Pati, you’ll always be his girlfriend, even if he doesn’t hump your leg.
Now I’ve just got to make sure he doesn’t lick open the sutures. Eww.
Second bit of good news, [...]

Poor Zefram

Our poor little puppy is getting neutered today. It’s so lonely around the house right now. Good thing we can pick him up at 4 today because I want my little puppy (not so little) back!
Some happy things:
- Intuition razor (2 steps in one! I love it!)
- Bowman (caution: very addictive!)
- Funny Kid (dancing [...]

Vacation’s Over!

Last Wednesday I flew to Houston, where I met up with my brother in law and my sisters. I had never been to Houston but I really liked what I saw; cute artsy areas, fabulous food and beautiful green grass everywhere! Coming from El Paso, you’re really stunned at how green Houston is.
We all [...]

With the exception of our International friends, all the promo packs have been sent out! And while, Leah and I never expect to gain anything in return (except some promos for our own shops!), it’s such a nice surprise when some shops include cute little gifts just because!
Check out this great headband from Dishy [...]

The Switchboards
I will be sending out everyone’s Promo Swap packages today. It’s getting harder and harder to fit all the promos in the little Flat Rate envelopes, especially those shops that wanted more than 100 back. Not quite sure what to do about it but September’s swap is Leah’s turn so we’ll see if [...]
