First off, I shall show of my spaghetti. I know. It's sad. I'm 25 years old and this is the first time I've made spaghetti. And it came out good, too. Ooh yeah.

On to my wonderful crafties. Remember how I made the shadow box of my loverly sister the other week? Well, now I've made one with my puppers! No photos of the sides. It's basically the same as the top. It is Clover sleeping on Thistle with the title of "Stay".

And the most fantasmic things I've made? They were easy, sure, but I love them. A month or two ago I said how I got Clover and Gibbs' paw prints in plaster. Well, I have put them in shadow boxes now. And now they're awesome. I've got Thistle's and Winnie's drying in the kitchen. I wish theirs was done sooner cause they can't dry fast enough! I'm sorry. The only photo editing program I have is paint. I'll get a better photo later. Anywho, the plaster casts are hanging from a pin and the names (which is their names then 2009 under it) are pinned on like specimens. Simple and perfect.

Finally, I painted a simple wood photo frame to fit the photo of Dad and Jeremy Roenick from the Sharks. Awesome, ain't it? Dawn printed it to be wallet sized, which is why it does not fit the entire frame. I have not printed photos in a long time, so I have a limited supply to choose from.

So these last few days I have been busy, but not much to post about. I have been doing some house cleaning. I cleaned the living room, helped Mom clean off the dining room table, cleaned atop the cutting board, and scrubbed the outside of the fridge clean (inside to come later). So there has not been anything to take photos of and post. Oh, and I've been doing a really bad job at getting my laundry finished (I don't know why I have been so horrible at it...I am never this bad).
I'm running out of battery so I shall be off.
Cheers.
Edited:
It has been almost two hours since I logged off and my notebook is now plugged in and charging. I wanted to add one more thing, too (yes, I've done one last thing in the last two hours).
My mom read an article to help people declutter and it stated that if you do something fifty times, it becomes a habit. So when decluttering, get rid of fifty things. And by golly, I have done it! I even got rid of a few pairs of shoes (I know, that was hard, but I never wear them, so I'm at least glad for that bit of room in my closet for the pairs I do wear). I stacked them in the living room, near the rest of the stuff to donate. I am not sure where they are going to. I think Class N Trash. But I hold we should donate our stuff to the Salvation Army so we don't rebuy what we just donated.
Anywho, like I said, I got rid of a few pairs of shoes. Mostly boots from Hot Topic. My calves are too fat and they kind of push the heel off my foot, so I don't wear them much. And I counted each pair, not each individually. And I had a basket of smaller things that I counted as one, instead of each individually as well. Not to mention I did not count the things I threw away. Yay me! Here is a photo. Again, sideways. Sorry. Now I'm off to sleep.
I think it's great you've gotten so much done! You're such a busy little bee. I feel like I'm a lazy slug. At least I emptied the dishwasher! And although we added to our piles, I'm glad we got rid of a few as well.
