Yay!!!!!

Yes, that means that i got a new job!! it's for a school district up north...i haven't heard back from the art institute, but this seems better since its closer to david and a small office and i like that a lot! We're going house shopping this weekend and will hopefully find something we LOVE because we need to find something relatively soon since closing generally takes 30 days or more...yuck! So we're going to look at 6 houses this weekend and they seem like really awesome prospects!! i'm really excited!!!

OK, i haven't knitted that much or done so much crafting since this past weekend was mothers day, it was hard to actually do something....ooh and my bday is coming up so i'm hoping for a knit picks options needle set :)

I have done my necklace for the wedding...here's a few pics:





The girl's dresses are halters but they're that wide halter and i'm unsure if a necklace would work or if i should just do bracelets. Also, the pink beads i was going to add into the girls. Do you think that the spacers are too gold?? i may get some metal paint and spray them a settler gold...we'll see though...any suggestions? I'm also going to bend them to fit the pearls better. And there's rhinestone rondelles in there too...i love it though...

ok let me know!

i'm kinda an idiot!

Ok, so i was at work scoping out to see if new positions had been listed on a couple of college's websites...and i totally messed up and thought that it was a different location than the actual one it was...so i'm a big idiot and well i guess that i suck at life and won't be getting that job! HA! The interview i think went really well, but i have to hope that this is what's meant to be, because otherwise i don't know what i'm going to do!! I just wish that i would know before 3 weeks from now....i wish that i would know in about 2 weeks, i can handle 2 weeks...it's that extra one that killlls me...

craft time!

the beads came in!!! i'm super excited and may do some designing tonite on some spare wire so when i get the rest of my findings, it'll be easy and no problem...and let's face it, i'm excited!!

and i changed the bridesmaid dresses because the fabric wasn't too forgiving for the girls and i want them to look good!! so here's the new ones:

i suck at inserting pics and such...anywho, i'm going to go play with beads and maybe put some clothes away because my apartment turned into a disaster over night it seems...i just want to find out what i'll be doing next year so we can get a place to live!!!! ah!!!
