Yesterday, my internet kept going in and out not allowing me to get any work done so I had not choice but to craft! It is amazing how dependable we think the internet is but when it is gone or not working properly we find ourselves doing things we would have never thought of doing before.
Anyway, I was extremely bored so I decided to recover our outdoor furniture cushions because I have been wanting to do this for a while now. The original seat covers were extremely shabby and needed to be recovered desperately!
The cushions came out beautifully. I am so glad I took the time to recover the cushions. Hubby was even impressed at how good they looked. He had never seen me sew before because I typically do all of my sewing projects while he is working.
He was commenting and saying good things about my sewing skills the whole time I was crafting. It really made me feel good.
I hope to get some crafting done today. I will be making an apron and freezer paper stenciling a few items. I will be sure to show you then end results whenever I am finished.
So the other day I actually got to get out in my garden and do some work for a little while before it started to rain. Pnut and I played with bubbles for a little while and then I went “dead-heading” my flowers so that new growth could come out. I also put up the rest of our little white fencing that will border all of our gardens.
Some people may be wondering…”How do you garden with two kids?” Well we have a “baby jail” as my husband would call it, or a playpen to the common folk. We use that outside and outside only to keep beany entertained and not eating rocks or grass. Pnut pretty much just runs around playing or he will help me in the garden.
Another alternative is using a Mei Tai with the Bean. I place him low on my back due to all the bending I due in the garden. He isn’t much of a fan of being worn but if he doesn’t want to be in the “baby jail” then we have no other choice if I want to attempt to get some work done. Or, I will wait until the bean takes his nap to do some gardening.
So it is possible to get things done with two kids, you just have to think creatively how you have to do it.
What are you kid tricks? How do you get things done with kids in the home?
So I have been working on a new theme for my husband’s blog because he has been begging me for one and well, it just isn’t working out right. My head hurts so much from all the coding, uploading, and changing graphics that I think I am going to scream!
I will try again tomorrow, but if yahoo doesn’t let me do it then I’m just going to say fudge it and tell hubs to get over this whole new theme idea. I can’t keep living under this stress….LOL.
Oh how I wish I had a memory foam mattress. Me and my husband have been eyeballing these beauties for a while now but alas can not afford one. We are still on the same mattress bought at a yardsale when we were first married. I often times wake up with a cramped neck or back pain. It just isn’t good, people. I hope to be able to buy one with my blogging money one of these days which of course requires me to save it…ha ha. We shall see when and if that day ever comes.

I’ve mentioned several times before how much bathroom faucets can really make your bathroom look grand! Just by updating the faucets in your bathroom or kitchen can really add a new surprising element to the room without having to redo the whole entire room itself. Maybe you should think about it for the next time you are trying to think of what to do with that old drab bathroom of yours.
It is very important to have Term Life Insurance just as much as it is to have a self defense product on hand at all times. Term Life Insurance will help you and your family in the long run when you are no longer here. Remember that the best thing you can do for your family is get a term life insurance quote today!
I am an avid fan of self defense products. As a woman I think it is important and my duty to keep me and my family safe. Self defense products are a good way of doing that. I can rest a little easier and enjoy life when I have a can of pepper spray in my purse or beside my bed. Women please learn ways of protecting yourself. You never know when a crisis might strike that is why it is important to educate yourself now before the incident occurs.
OK, ladies if you go to your husband ask him if he wants a festool he will probably grin and nod with excitement. If you have a husband that is into tools, a festool is something that all men practically want in their garages. Remember tools are good ladies because that means that your husband might actually get up and do something for once like build that cabinet for you that you have always wanted.
