Today...

I pressed snooze for one hour.
I woke up to what looked like a crime scene.
  (Halley had a bloody nose in the night).


This little one gave me a panic attack.
I cried.
She's fine.
I'm not.  
The term "non-stress test" is really stinking stressful.
  I am at the point in my pregnancy where I get them twice a week.  
Two down, 18 to go.


I wistfully ate some of these fun, nostalgic cookies, knowing it might well be the last time.  
Mother's Cookies suddenly ceased production.  
Another casualty of our awesome economy.


I began painting a forest of wood.
So very sorry homeless animals.  I had good intentions, but I can no longer use reclaimed wood from construction sites, since construction sites don't exist thanks to the awesome economy.


I burned myself with the glue gun making this.
It was worth it though.

How was your day?

Off to take Dorothy and Nemo to the pumpkin patch.

    I'm so sad to hear that frosted animal cookies may become extinct. They're soooo good!

    i can remember once when i was 7 my mom coming in to wake me up and said "don't get up! stay right there!" she cleaned me up and took me out of my room. apparently i had a bloody nose and my bed was like a crime scene...good word picture. but she thought i would freak out really bad if i saw it. i never did see.

    and i WILL be buying those cookies tomorrow.
    thanks for the news.

    happy painting.
