TEN FOR TUESDAY BLOG JOURNAL
1. I was VERY upset yesterday after losing this beautiful faux bamboo Pagoda light fixture on Ebay!!! I wasn't even paying attention to the bidding time, and I barely lost the stupid win by $1.50! I shouldn't still be lamenting over it, but I really wanted it!!! I was going to fix it up into something like the picture of the yellow one (piecesinc.com) In fact the person who won it was probably the place who is selling the yellow one for nearly $1800!!! What a joke!! Now I will never find another one!
2. Okay, now that I am getting over that... Matt is still out of town till tomorrow, then we have to got Christmas shopping for some people. We do a gift exchange between siblings in Matt's family. Now tell me what do you get for your brother-in-law? I was thinking of sewing him something?...like a decor pillow? jk
3. My brother just had his first child born this last week on Dec. 9th. He is soo cute! How great for them!
4. I am super overwhelmed by what I am going to do for my own house, my head has been spining! I want a really simple, modern, vintage, eclectic feel. Too bad a lot of the money that we have saved is going to the electrical work!!! Wee that's fun for a designer to spend money on!? (But don't get me wrong I am very glad we are having it done!) Seriously,
there were no outlets in the bathrooms!! I have already suffered through one house without outlets in the bathroom, please not again!!
5. I always have a better day when I sale something on Etsy! Yay for a sale today!!
6. I do not like cold weather. But I thought today, I probably wouldn't appreciate the sweet times of spring, summer and fall if I didn't hate the winter so much! I am very insightful. ;)
7. I get so cranky when my cute little Jimmy wakes up at 3:00 in the morning with his fire siren cry! Oh man can I just sleep please!!
8. Fun in the snow, this was the first time Jimmy has really been able to actually walk in the snow! These are his new snow boots that Matt bought for him in Vegas! They are huge, but he loves them! This morning he walked right over to them and said, "bout" and he has had them on the whole day today!
9. Wow, Christmas is very close by. I am kind of a grinch, even my mom says that I look like the Grinch...thanks mom! Anyway, I read an article in the Ensign last night by President Monson saying how the Christmas spirit is the Christ spirit. I like how he said that we become more interested in people than in things. Thats something I want to always keep in mind. I tend to get caught up too much on things...you know kind of like that pagoda chandelier I talked about on no.1
10. We had a Christmas get together with my dad's side of the family. It was great to see everyone all at the same time, because we don't get together as often as we did when we were younger, and everyone wasn't married with kids of their own. But, it's nice to see everyone once in a while!!

Dang! That Pagoda light fixture is pretty cool. Too bad you didn't get it.
BTW, if your brother-in-law's name is Reed, I'm pretty sure he would LOVE a decor pillow!
I was just dicussing with him last night how much I hate winter and how we need to seriously consider moving to Hawaii. Maybe if the whole family moved together he would be game. Are you up for it?
Hey nice blog post! Sorry about your pagoda thing...and seeing in Jimmy in his boots made my day. I wish we had snow. I would for sure set little mason in it to take a picture.
Tiff, I am the brother-in-law refered to in item #2. A decor pillow is a wonderful idea, but just in case you don't have time to get to it a home depot gift card is always acceptable.
