Clutter

My life is cluttered and it is time to clear away the excess. Unfortunately the first to go will be this blog. Don't cry my friends, there are many other ways to stay in touch with me. If you do not have a Facebook account, then get one as I frequent there. Also I will continue with my illustration blog. Another great way is to call me or send a letter in the mail or even send an email. But alas I am done for now with Tannie Outnumbered as the things in my life have also outnumbered me.

Good Clean Fun.

Logan got very, very quiet and we knew it was time to find him. At least we know he practices good hygiene. :-)

Something silly

Thought this might be fun.

Post your name and I will do each of the following:
1. I'll respond with something random about you.
2. I'll tell you which song or movie you remind me of.
3. I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me.
4. I'll tell you my first memory of you.
5. I'll tell you what animal you remind me of.
6. I'll ask you something I've always wondered about you.
7. I'll tell you my favorite thing about you.
8. I'll tell you my least favorite thing about you.
9. If you play, you MUST post this on yours.

Life no longer sucks, now it is awesome

okay so Dan got a job! Yay! It was also about a month ago, so, my bad for not posting earlier. He loves his new job and finds it interesting each day. I love having money and find that interesting each day. :-) Any who, It is nice to be gainfully employed and fun to say "remember that time you didn't have a job?" to each other. On top of that my life is super busy right now, thus all the non-posting. The thing I am most updating is my illustration blog. If you haven't checked it out in a while, then I am sure you will see some new things. Be sure to post something so that I know you are a real person and it will also make me feel special. I will try to throw some pictures up here soon but life...actually I think I have some halloween ones ready right now!



why yes, that is He-Man and don't forget his wonderful sidekick Orko. If you do not recognize those characters than you failed the 80's. FAIL! I wish I had better pictures, like of how much Logan hates his costume...oh wait...I do...







and here is He-Man in all his glory.


I will admit to cheating. These are actually the same costumes from last year. But lucky me, the kids still fit them. Now the real trick is which pictures are from which year?

Sometimes life just sucks...

Well if anyone remembers my previous post about an evil man named Phong whom Dan worked with, Phong finally got his way and Dan was "allowed" to resign last Friday. On that same day we found out that Dans father had a heart attack and needs triple by-pass surgery. Hooray for Trials! So if any of you are in need of a good looking, hard working accountant that would be awesome. If any of you know of someone who needs some freelance design work that would be awesome. If any of you want to trade lives that would be awesome also.

Actually sarcasm aside. We feel pretty good about things. The great thing about Dan is that I know that if we ended up homeless in the wild (I refuse to live on the streets, so wild it is) he would be the first to hunt down some sort of animal to eat. He would dig up grubs, build a fire and carve a pot from the trunk of a tree. So I know that no matter what, we will be taken care of as a family. I also know that no matter what you are thrown in life, there is always a valuable lesson to be learned. So I actually am excited to go through this trial with my family and come out a better person on the other side. Hopefully the other side will involve a job and housing, preferably food, but either way we will have grown!

Memories...

Okay you have all probably seen this. The deal is to post a comment and leave a memory you have of me. Something we did together or you remember about me or whatever. At least I think that is how it works. I didn't read the instructions very carefully. Anyway I hope I get at least three posts on it, and Dan you better be one of them. *glare*

Hooray memories!!

Kinetic Typography makes me drool

I love this video enough that I have posted it on both of my blogs. Many of you wonder at my obsession with typography and why some make me cringe and throw up a little (papyrus, comic sans) and why others are so simple and beautiful I just want to cry (Gills Sans, Futura, Garamond...the list can go on). Anyway watch this video and tell me if maybe perhaps you too could come to love typography.
