went to the yarn shop today for a couple of hours. i decided to give jennifer's suggestion of orange shadow for blue eyes a try. i had some sweet libertine in a bright-penny orange and used that on the upper lid up to the crease, then used bare escentuals vanilla... Continue reading

welcome!

I've been exploring the world of makeup and style in the past few months like a tween. But I'm a 47-year-old woman. I've worn makeup before but not much. But I've conquered some longtime chronic health problems in the past year (HOORAY) and am feeling better than I ever have... Continue reading

that's awesome!! does he play? banjo needs to wait until christmas at least, but a new uke, a regular soprano uke, might come sooner than that. apparently my banjo uke is great for strumming but not so much for plucking because the strings are so close together. anyway, it's fun :)

my flag arrived!

My U.S. flag arrived today! Now I get to move on with that first requirement for the Active Citizen badge. Probably not before the weekend, though, because this is the end of the fiscal year where I work and EVERYBODY WANTS EVERYTHING RIGHT NAO. It's just like being a fourth... Continue reading

Junior badge: Active Citizen

so weird. they show up fine on my mac but not on my ipad, either. anyway, the song was indeed "you oughta know." i discovered its rage-ness back in my first marriage when i was mad at him for something (no idea what now) and it happened to come on my walkman. the bad thing about this song (as opposed to "fuck you" by cee-lo green, which is the second video posted) is that it doesn't make you laugh off your anger. just ratchets it up.

lisa--the one dresser is, of course, from ikea, but the two bigger ones we got at a community yard sale (not our community, one called highland park nearby) a couple of years back for $40 or $50. those along with a twin bed that we've since deaccessioned, but the whole set for 40 or 50 bucks. they're so solid and work perfectly, though there are some stains and such on the finish. i love them!
