Death By Salad

On Thursday we ate a nice meal. It was the normal time around the table talking, trying to get the kids to eat something, you know normal. I was the only one that had a salad on there plate. On Friday about 5:30 am I got very ill and was praying all day to the porcelain god. Was not fun at all. I am well now but hurt everywhere. The only thing we could think of that caused it was the salad. I believe it was contaminated with something. So I will be makeing a nice phone call to the grocery store where i bought it. I am lucky it didnt become worse.

New species?

I normally don't read the yahoo news articles, but this morning one attracted my attention. I like to read about new discoveries either it be nature or from the ancient world. I enjoy watching the history channel a lot along with scifi.
But today this article really grabbed my attention I find it fascinating while others might find it disturbing or make them re think there world around them. So much has been lost over the years its refreshing to know so much has been found as well. Maybe together we can spread the word that it is up to us to make small changes on how we live our daily lives. We can do so much more if we sit down and think about it.

Wedding Anniversery

We celebrated our 8 year wedding anniversary on October 31st! We had a party on November 1st but no one showed up. We will have pics up on everything we did for the party. We did a Kitty Litter Cake, a Hunted House Cookie Castle, Hamburger, steaks, and dogs. We have Tons of Candy as no one stopped at our house on Halloween Night. This year was so sad and so disappointing. Not even sure I want to try next year. Although we started plans for the Cemetery we want to do and Maybe a huge sign that reads "Tick Or Treater's welcome" Maybe someone might stop! We have also plans for doing a Jack O lantern Patch. We plan to do at least 20 different pumpkins next year!
Pics will be available later this week!

Feeling icky

Whatever it is its going around, everyone in the house are runny nose, coughing, watery eyes. The weather has been changing drastically one day it would be in the 40's the next day on the 90's and at night in the 35's. I so not like the constant cold and hot feeling its like the south is going through menopause or something. Well hopefully soon i can move to my dream location.

Renuzit Tri Scents

Here recently i tried Renuzit TriScents. I placed them in my sewing/laundry room. I spend a lot of hours in there and a little fragrance never hurts anyone right? Well at first it was too over powering for me. It made me nauseous even when i placed it on a low warming release setting. With the three scents in circulation I had to open up a window for a few days. I even left the door open to help vent it through out the house. After 5 days it started to work right (i am guessing) and didn't become so strong. As the oils started to be used up the better I liked it. Their are a few things in my opinion that needs to be worked on is the heating element.
they are offering coupons from there website. Maybe it was just me about the strength of the first few days. I did like it once it had time to burn off the excess amount of fragrance and the rotation on the scents was and is cleaver. The scents I had had Lenin, fresh breeze and one other I cant remember. It was nice as time went on. I do recommend all who like Renuzit to go the there website and print out a coupon to try it for themselves!
Renuzit TriScents

Been so busy!

Have you ever been so busy that its hard to keep up with everything? I have been the last two weeks.
Its starting to ease off a little now. I can finally catch up on my e-mails and other things! Yay for calmer days :)

Corset Lovin!

Upcycled Black Corset

This corset was made from a satin Chinese style shirt.
In our excitement on making this corset we had forgotten to take pictures of the Original shirt.
This corset is lined with black cotton fabric.
We used twill fabric to reinforce the busk area.
This Corset is a size 10
It has black Grommets and 3 yards of black lacing cord.
The design is Chinese Dragons and peacocks.
We used Black Satin Bias Edging.
Flat Steel Boning
Fits these measurements the best (just a guideline):
Bust 32 1/2 inches
Waist 25 inches
Hip 34 1/2 inches

If you are wanting to tight lace and are bigger then these measurements please be advised that one should take special precautions on this. For safe tight lacing we recommend that the body be a size 12 (the fallowing measurements are a guideline for a size 12).
Bust: 34 inches
waist: 26 1/2 inches
hip: 36 inches

Victorian Corsets

This little beauty is what has been keeping me busy for nearly two weeks (still have another to finish).

511 Tactical Outdoors

5.11 Tactical Pants are a great pair for Police. They have many colors and styles to chose from. Plus who can resist free shipping? 5.11 tactical Pants have reinforced seams made of heavy duty fabrics and have many pockets and colors to chose from. They also have a place for your keys! how great is that? To be honest I don't see many Men going and getting a "bag" to put their wallets, keys and other things like their phones into. So these pants might be a great buy for any Guy! Oh did I mention Free shipping?!
