Yes…what you are doing is PRICELESS!!! You are raising and loving the next generation that we will need and depend on! Enjoy these busy years…they are over with before you know it!!! Trust me…I learned the hard way! I thought everyone was lying to me! LOL Now I'm watching my grandchildren grow like weeds~ ♥♥♥
Oh I love posts like this about real life things. The fabric stack looks yummy too! And boy your kids are cute! My husband and I are thinking of having a 3rd soon and I love to hear how other people handle 3 or more kids and what works for them. Hugs and sleep to you! I always like to look at my two monkeys after they're asleep, it helps me put things in perspective when they're quiet and still!
Beautiful children. This time will pass and you can look back with fond memories. I remember nursing an infant and the other children getting into something, mostly everything while I felt tied to the chair/bed. Before you know it, they will be asking if they can use the car to run to the mall…at least at this point you know where they are (most of the time)
Beautiful pic of your beautiful babies! My mantra is something like: This isn't meant to be a museum – real people live here and occasionally it will look like it. I'd rather play with the kids and have things be un-tidy than have it perfect and have neurotic kids who freak about stepping on the vacuum lines in the carpet!

Hang in there! I was in the same place last year, and there is definitely light at the end of the tunnel. Enjoy every moment, because it seems like each kid's first year goes by so stinkin' fast! btw, those are some precious moments you captured!
Oh! This picture (both of them!) is priceless! Love the big brother holding his baby sister – so sweet! And the little guy checking out your stash – tooo cute! Hang in there mom! I remember those days – they are exhausting and they go wayyyyyy tooo fast! Enjoy! And hope you get some rest!

It looks like you are doing a brilliant job of raising your children in a happy, caring and productive environment. Good for you!
Having 3 under 3 myself, i am sooo there with you. My house is a mess, my yard is a mess, my car is a mess, my hair is a mess, what is makeup? I live in trackies and have even dared to venture out of the house in them these days. But i too have gorgeous boys that i would not swap for the world. If only i could get a whole night's sleep !!

Just remember when it is nap time, it is also nap time for mom too. SO you are energized and ready to tackle the world after wards. When the dishes get done, they get done. Who cares. Same with the laundry, as long as you have something to wear today. You will eventually find a rhythm and then it will be all ok again.

Wonderful pictures! Hang in there – things will settle down again after a bit. New babies shake things up in such wonderful and chaotic ways :)

Your blog shows your priorities are great and that your children are adorable. 30 years from now you will forget toys in vents, cold cereal and fabric on the floor, but the love will remain.
randi--i have to say March 29, 2012 at 12:01 pm #
This is such a sweet time in your kid's lives, and I am glad that you are doing your best to enjoy these days.
I know it seems really overwhelming, but hang in there. Time for yourself and quilting is in your future. I promise! :)
PS-pretty pile of fabric!
themissymom March 29, 2012 at 12:26 pm #
It's worth it. I promise! Hang in there!
Besides, cereal is fortified.
I feel your pain, we have four little ones and it's a miracle I get anything done! I posted this on my blog back when we had three and I had to share it. I think it will make you laugh and you'll appreciate the comic.
Haha!! I could have written that first part myself! I remember when my 3 year old tweebs would reap havoc while I nursed their baby sister. Their favorite things to do was pour chocolate soy milk and hotwheels down the vents!! I finally started strapping them into their high chairs with snacks and a book while I nursed her.
Such a sweet picture of the littlest one and her brother. So precious. They get big waaay to fast! Enjoy these crazy times, though it is overwhelming. Soon they are big and gone. You will get to sew again and even have a clean house. :-) But what stories you have to tell. Toys in the heater vents! Maybe he wanted to rearrange your fabric to his own organization scheme. :-) Keep smiling and laughing. K-
You are so right! You have beautiful children, you are home with, raising them, feeding, nuturing them, loving them! I'm amazed that you can blog about it! I remember raising mine (they are now adults, hard to believe but we all made it :D) and I didn't even blog about it) And that probably is a good thing. I love your blog, you are amazing! Thank you for sharing and keep up the amazing job! What a blessing our families are!

Soooo Cute!!!
yup, I can totally relate. My baby is 4 wks old today, and my other two girls are now sick…one with a cold, the other with vomiting/diarrhea. lets just say we're tired parents! I did manage to get a mini quilt top near done during nap time yesterday and it felt soooo good to do something fun for me =)
JulesHollis March 29, 2012 at 3:24 pm #
That last picture is adorable. Love those little baby cheeks.
I remember when my 3rd was a newborn (I'm about to have my 4th any day now, so I need to remind myself of these things, too), and the Health Nurse came for her one week check in visit. I told her, "My house is a mess, the floors are all sticky, and aside from supper – which has been brought by other people – we have been subsisting on peanut butter and jam sandwiches and cold cereal". And she said, "That's just the way it should be right now. Keep sitting and nursing and loving that baby. That's what's important."
Why exactly are those shelves full of fabric sooo enticing? Mine are always knocked onto the floor, too, or else they are full of lego. And apparently the best substance for lego mini-figures to use to repel off of those fabric cliffs is the thread in my thread drawer . . .

I feel you! My baby is almost 8 months old, and now I'm homeschooling the 8 and 5 year old, and I'm living between 2 houses in 2 states! I'm ready to tear my hair out. Good thing a little sewing therapy goes a long way.
SUCH cute kids. I love it when you catch them loving their siblings. It makes your heart sing! I am amazed that you get any sewing done at all! I had my 4th a little over a year ago and have completed so little since them. Like you said the kids take ALL your energy! Glad to see you have your priorities straight. Like has been already said you won't ever regret it! Keep up the good work and hang in there!

Believe me…you are among friends who understand. Don't give up. There is a light at the end of that long, messy, sleepless tunnel.

Oh bless your heart. It is the hardest job in the universe – but your children are beautiful, and a precious blessing. Best Mommy advice: Sleep, don't worry, it will all work out okay.
Cheryl Arkison March 29, 2012 at 5:55 pm #
I know EXACTLY how you feel right now. And when I do have the moments I'm so overwhelmed by all the to-dos that I freeze.

Oh so sweet! Congratulations on your new baby. My mom sent me this link. I think it reminds her of our life right now. I am living with my Mom (a professional quilter) right now while my husband and I (plus our three kids and dog) are selling our house in one state and moving to another. My son is 2 years old and gets into everything….especially while I am feeding my 5 month old daughter. His favorite thing to do is get some fabric remnants and run around the house with them fluttering in the breeze like a cape. ;)
That kissing picture is priceless… and so is a mother's job.
I try to measure my accomplishments in hugs and cleanliness, and disregard the messes and clutter. The fact that you have a (great) blog you're keeping up on top of taking care of your kids and hobbies… you are the WOMAN!
Live a Colorful Life March 29, 2012 at 8:48 pm #
So one of the links at the bottom of this post was "kids for sale." I clicked on it and you were writing about the baby crying–who must now be the middle child, right? And again, "Good thing they're cute." I so agree! And they are absolutely adorable!
Michelle B. March 29, 2012 at 9:37 pm #
I know exactly how you feel and I only have ONE kid…last night I'm trying to sew a baby shower gift and my sewing area is in our master bedroom (which is really huge so there is plenty of space to play) and my son absolutely needs to be directly under my feet. The last pic of your oldest holding his baby sister and giving her a kiss…that is an abosolutely precious picture. When she gets older and wants to hang out with him and his friends, just show him this picture…
Chris {frecklemama} March 30, 2012 at 2:04 am #
Look at that sweet picture! Doesn't it help you get through the rough days? Having your third really throws you over the edge into CRAZY. But, as always, this too shall pass. Let go of those unimportant things and enjoy those little people. So sweet!
I just have to share with you :) I put a photo on my blog today and I was actually think of blogs like yours when I wrote that I wondered how all these talented women find time to sew while they have kids around. I had to get some sewing done and so I let my youngest (19 months) play with facepaint at my feet while I finished off some Easter Bunnies. Even when they're being cheeky, they're gorgeous :) The photo is here, much messier than your little one amusing himself :) http://prettybobbins.blogspot.com/2012/03/easter-sewing-or-how-easter-bunny-took.html I hope you don't mind me putting the link in, I just had to share :) I was very nervous having facepaint so close to my fabrics, but I HAD to sew LOL
sleepycathollow March 30, 2012 at 2:26 pm #
What a beautiful photograph of your son and daughter!
Your kids are loved and it is more important than a clean home no ?
I want to make quilt patterns and I was wondering if you knew of a "tutorial" on how to make it ? I have EQ7 so I guess it will help me but I have no clue on how to make this.. I don't know if you can help..
how wonderfully priceless. you are doing the most important job anyone could do, being there, quiding and molding these beautiful God given gifts. keep up the good work. it does pay off. i found that keeping God, laughter as well as rules in the house was the key to our sucess
Dayna at Precut Paradise March 30, 2012 at 3:05 pm #
Oh my!! Those are the cutest pics ever! Take it all in, it will go by so fast!
Judy Blinkenberg March 30, 2012 at 4:36 pm #
I have been watching my young grandchildren ages 3 & 7. At 63 I find it is hard work but I love it. The comments above say it very well. These years are priceless and they pass so quickly. Someone once told me that children will not remember the house clean but how much love.
you can always clean house and cook, but a day spent like that, is missing something precious you can never get back. enjoy the babies while you can, they really do grow up, and out the door. faster than you can imagine. my oldest grandchild turned 13 and i still feel 21 in my brain. not so much the body tho.
Keep it up. Hard but the right job! At least you're fishing things out of the vents. I am fishing things out of the toilet – from a currently potty training kid who has to have access to the potty. Neat! And I have a friend who had to fish poop out of a vent! So be thankful it's just toys. :-)
CynthiaT59 March 30, 2012 at 11:40 pm #
I have a smile that goes all the way through to my heart. Being on "the other side" with both my children in college- your post made me laugh! I loved reading the encouragement from the other young mothers and the grandmothers. I do give you all credit in how you have babies but are keeping the creative side in your life also. I loved what RaeLyn said about expectations. Enjoy the little moments in each day…laugh much!

Mine are 9,8,5 yrs old…I promise they get easier and your energy will return!
The house still gets messy but it's fun ;)
When your baby girl starts walking and your 2 hands are more free, (you still have to chase) but I felt it was much easier being outnumbered when I didn't have to carry a baby!
My mei tei carrier saved me lots of sanity w my 3rd, I made it and she loved it! Hang in there!! Love your blog :)

Oh so cute!!! Rest and enjoy!
Halliday's April 2, 2012 at 6:29 am #
Thank you for sharing the humor behind being a mom of young kids. It makes me want to see that (the humor) more often and enjoy the cute stage my kids are in even if I'm having sleep and crafting deprivation… : )
Halliday's April 2, 2012 at 6:36 am #
Oh, one more thing… I just bought a layer cake of the same "Reunion" line from Moda. I don't know what I'll do with it, but it is so cute!
miamihoney April 2, 2012 at 6:27 pm #
And I thought my day was loco with one, I can't even imagine. I think the cute factor outweighs any of their antics :)
Donna Becker April 3, 2012 at 10:21 am #
Your little guy in the stash is demonstrating a skill that's pretty neat for his age. He's learned that he can pull an item out of stack more easily if he uses his left hand to hold the stack in place above his right hand. That's a smart little guy!
I'm impressed that you've gotten anything fabric-related done at all! It's been two weeks since my little one arrived, and the only thing I've done in my sewing room is make the bed for a guest. So, pat yourself on the back, realize that cereal is a balanced meal (as long as it's served with milk), and try to take a nap!
able mabel April 5, 2012 at 3:57 pm #
As I bounce my 8 week old on my knee and stare at my stack of fabric waiting for me, I can completely relate! Hang in there!
JusticeBlog April 7, 2012 at 5:42 pm #
Hang in there! I hear you. And seriously, what is with those kids throwing stuff down the vents!? My son dropped a tennis ball one time and I could hear it rolling down throughout the house! Someday when my kids are a bit older, I'm going to get my vents cleaned out and I will probably find enough toys for a yard sale!
I'm just nervous one of them will throw something dangerous, like a bottle of milk, down the vent and then the house will stink!
The Pretty Pinhead April 14, 2012 at 4:52 am #
How do you do it? I have an eleven month old and have a hard time keeping up with just him :) I love all the pretty fabric. I'm a new follower. I'd love for you to follow me back!

So many ways to start the day but my favourite, when I am home, is to take a walk along the beach, watch the sun rise and the people enjoying the start of another day.
At the moment I am on the tropical hinterland and enjoying its own unique beauty. In another 4 to 5 weeks I will be back home and the beach will still be waiting.
There will be so many ways people around the world say "Good Morning" Go to the "Weekly Photo Challenge" to see more morning greetings.

I feel I am able to express myself through my body modifications. I do not regret anything I have done to my body.

I just order my first tattoo kit along with a lot more supplies! This is something I have been wanting to do for a long time now. I will be starting off using practice skins of course and drawing different designs up and start tattooing them! I will be eventually doing some on me most likely as well :) I already know how to do piercings and knowing how to tattoo as well will be great!

I had to do downsize both my helix back to 0ga. They did seem to be doing just fine but they just could not handle the stretch to 00ga at once. After they heal completely I will just stretch them slower.

I stretched my septum to 2ga and also stretched both of my helix to 00ga! New pictures will be uploaded soon to my piercing album.

Baptist Memorial Health Care Corp. has hired Dr. Mark Swanson to serve as chief quality officer.
Swanson's duties in this new role include working with leadership in hospital administration, Baptist Medical Group, Select Health Alliance, medical staff, nursing and risk management to implement and monitor quality initiatives, design quality measurement systems, enhance employee safety efforts and oversee regulatory compliance.
Swanson comes to Baptist from Orlando Health, an eight-hospital, not-for-profit health care system where he has spent the past 28 years. His most recent position was chief quality officer of the organization's physician group and physician clinical integration initiative.
Before going to Orlando Health, he served in the U.S. Navy, spending five years working in naval hospitals. He has been actively engaged in academic medicine, serving 11 years as a clinical assistant professor of pediatrics at the Florida State University College of Medicine while on staff at Orlando Health.
Start Co. has added Memphis businessman Scott Vogel to its operation as vice president of civic entrepreneurship, and the organization has promoted current mentorship leader Al Pickett to vice president of diversity.
In addition, Vogel will be responsible for managing Start Co.'s newest accelerator, SkyHigh, which will be geared around social innovation. Along with that, Vogel will help Start Co. build public-private partnerships to scale the group's effort. He'll also help facilitate relationships with local and national universities and social groups, and will focus on business development.
The SkyHigh accelerator program is accepting applications through April 15. Applications to the rest of Start Co.'s accelerators are open through March 15.
Meanwhile, Pickett in his new role will help grow and lead Start Co.'s minority and women inclusion efforts, conduct community outreach and operate Launch University, a weekly founder development program. He'll also continue to lead Start Co.'s mentoring platform.
Valero Energy Corp. has moved maintenance work on its Memphis plant to April from March after a key parts supplier went out of business, according to a report from Bloomberg News.
The six weeks of work will begin April 7, according to Bloomberg, which cited a source with knowledge of the situation.
Bloomberg said the maintenance work will require about half of the refinery to be idled.
Valero announced in October that it would start eight weeks of work at the refinery in March.
The 195,000-barrel-a-day Memphis plant runs primarily light and sweet crude oil delivered by the Capline pipeline, which runs from St. James, La., to Patoka, Ill.
Indie Memphis helps celebrate Memphis Fashion Week this month by screening three fashion-industry-related films over three Tuesday evenings.
The films, all of which will be shown at 7 p.m. at Malco's Studio on the Square, are "Girl Model" on March 11, "Ultrasuede in Search of Halston" March 18 and "Bill Cunningham New York" on March 25.
Memphis Fashion Week runs from March 24 to March 29.
Legislation that would let voters decide whether their cities or counties allow wine to be sold in supermarkets and convenience stores has been sent to the governor, who is expected to sign the measure into law.
The Senate, which passed its version of the bill 23-8 in January, on Monday approved minor changes made by the House when the lower chamber passed its version of the bill 71-15 last month.
"This bill has been around a long time," said Senate sponsor Bill Ketron, R-Murfreesboro. "I think the members of this body and members in the House actually listened to the people who are going to have that opportunity to purchase wine in grocery stores."
The proposal would grant authority to cities and counties that have package stores or liquor-by-the-drink sales to hold referendums on whether to allow wine to be sold in supermarkets and convenience stores.
It also allows local votes to take place as early as this fall but would not allow supermarket wine sales until July 2016 at the earliest.
Under current law, supermarkets and convenience stores can sell beer containing up to 6.5 percent alcohol by volume. Anything stronger can be sold only in package stores, which can't sell anything beyond booze and lottery tickets.
In working out their differences, lawmakers agreed to require convenience stores to have at least 1,200 square feet to qualify for a wine sales license, and for the licensing fee to be $1,250.
Shelby County Schools leaders have extended the open-enrollment period through March 21 for students under the general choice transfer program.
Schools superintendent Dorsey Hopson said last month the deadline for the applications would probably be pushed back so parents could consider their choices with attendance zone changes the school board is considering.
The transfers are on a space-available basis for schools that will be in the Shelby County Schools system in the 2014-2015 school year, after the separation of school districts in the county's six suburbs.
Because of the demerger, Shelby County Schools cannot renew general choice transfers for students who live outside the suburbs' borders and currently attend schools in the new suburban school systems.
Each of the suburban school systems has its own open-enrollment policies for such instances.
SCS students already on a general choice transfer at a school that remains part of Shelby County Schools next year are automatically renewed to attend that school.
Memphis-based discount retailer Fred's Inc. said Thursday that February sales at stores open at least a year fell 2.2 percent, hindered by severe winter weather.
The performance surprised analysts polled by Thomson Reuters, who were expecting a 0.2 percent increase in the metric.
This figure is a key gauge of a retailer's health. It excludes results from stores recently opened or closed.
CEO Bruce Efird said in a statement that cold temperatures, ice and snow in the southeast in February were "major factors" in its same-store sales decline. The executive said that the weather conditions led to store closings and fewer operating hours at a significant number of its shops.
Still, Efird said that Fred's did see better February same-store sales in the pet, pharmacy and hometown auto and hardware departments.
Total sales for the four weeks ended March 1 dipped 1 percent to $157.5 million from $159 million.
Memphis-based GTx reported a net loss of $7.8 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31 and an annual net loss of $42.1 million for 2013.
That compares to net losses of $10.7 million for the last quarter of 2012 and a net loss of $27.1 million for all of 2012.
However, a recent stock sale will improve GTx's cash position by about $21 million.
The company's Capesaris drug, in development for prostate cancer treatment, is entering phase 2 of a clinical study.
GTx also has learned that Enobosarm, a drug being developed to treat muscle wasting, did not produce the necessary data in current trials that would enable the company to file a new drug application.
Dr. Mitchell Steiner, CEO of GTx, said in a conference call that while Enobosarm did not meet the statistical criteria required by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration, data from the studies "clearly showed that Enobosarm had a consistent positive effect on maintaining or improving lean body mass compared to placebo in both studies."
The company is expected to continue development efforts.
Shelby County Trustee David Lenoir has announced the next Shelby County Real Estate Road Show to promote Shelby County's tax sale and Land Bank will be March 18.
The event will be held at the Germantown Great Hall, 1900 S. Germantown Parkway. Check-in will begin at 1:30 p.m. with the two-hour program starting at 2 p.m.
Real estate information company Chandler Reports is sponsoring the Real Estate Road Show and providing refreshments. Chandler Reports is a division of The Daily News Publishing Co. Inc.
Attendance is free, however advanced registration is encouraged because space is limited.
Representatives from the Chancery Court Clerk and Master's office and a title attorney from the Trustee's office will be available to answer questions.
The county conducts four tax sales a year. The next is scheduled for April 9 at Memphis City Hall, 125 N. Main St.
To register, visit shelbycountytrustee.com and click on the Real Estate Road Show item under Events.
Planners from the Memphis and Shelby County Office of Sustainability are inviting members of the public to review the vision plan and concept map for connecting local green space that's a result of the Mid-South Regional Greenprint and Sustainability Plan.
The first major milestone of that three-year planning project was completed in late October with the development of the regional vision plan. The public is being asked to weigh in on that vision and share their priorities and ideas at a series of meetings from March through June, with the first held March 11 at the Bert Ferguson Community Center in Cordova.
Meetings in March will also be held in Raleigh and West Memphis. The full schedule of meetings can be found by visiting midsouthgreenprint.org/meetings.
The Mid-South Regional Greenprint and Sustainability Plan is expected to be completed in December.
With lots of questions, the Memphis City Council approved Tuesday, March 4, a "mid-year clean-up" budget resolution that includes shifting $48 million in city funds.
While many of the transfers are revenue-neutral transactions for accounting purposes, the shift also includes moving $1 million to pay for continued testing of the Memphis Police Department's rape kit backlog.
The money would come from the Midtown corridor fund, a $1.3 million pool of federal dollars that was originally to be used for the construction of Interstate 40 through Overton Park.
Last year, the city considered using the fund to settle money owed for Handy Park improvements that were a part of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court proceedings over control of the Beale Street entertainment district. Other city funding was used to resolve the matter.
Construction-period rent from The Pyramid totaling $2.5 million was also transferred to Housing and Community Development under the general heading of "Pyramid redevelopment."
The Supreme Court says a bankruptcy court may not go after property or funds that are legally exempt from creditors.
The justices in a unanimous opinion ruled Tuesday in favor of a California man who declared Chapter 7 bankruptcy. The man claimed $75,000 of the value of his home was covered by California's homestead exemption and was therefore exempt from the bankruptcy estate.
The man was later found to have fraudulently shielded some of his assets from creditors. A federal bankruptcy court said the exempt funds could be used to defray the attorney fees associated with uncovering the fraud, and a federal appeals court agreed.
But the Supreme Court reversed. It ruled that a bankruptcy court may not tap into exempt money to punish debtor misconduct.
FedEx Freight, a less-than-truckload subsidiary of FedEx Corp., will increase shipping rates by an average of 3.9 percent effective March 31, 2014.
FedEx Freight said its "fuel surcharge will remain unchanged and is one of the lowest in the LTL industry."
The rate increase is for FedEx freight shipments within the United States, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Canada and Mexico
The new rate hike comes after FedEx Freight raised prices by an average 4.5 percent July 1. Rate increases for FedEx Express and FedEx Ground shipments went into effect Jan. 6.
Memphis City Council members approved an urban renewal plan Tuesday, March 4, for the Raleigh Springs Mall that will start the process of locating city government offices at the mall, starting with the Memphis Police Department traffic precinct. The resolution, sponsored by council member Bill Morrison and approved without debate, also sets the stage for a public hearing on the larger plan.
Mayor A C Wharton Jr.'s administration has also talked of building a new Raleigh branch public library at the mall site and moving the Old Allen Station police precinct, the oldest police precinct building still in use in Memphis, to the mall.
A plan to set a new fee structure for streetlights went back to square one as the council couldn't find a second to approve a resolution setting the new rates proposed by the Memphis Light, Gas and Water Division board.
Several council members said they will likely try to bring the issue back to life in committee meetings later this month.
The council outright rejected the resolution by council member Bill Boyd to exempt approximately 1,700 newly annexed residents of South Cordova from paying the fee. That part of Cordova does not have street lights.
Boyd cast the only yes vote in favor of the resolution.
The council approved a long-delayed resolution to spend $300,000 from the city solid waste fund to build six community trash compactor pads in the Downtown area as part of a plan to eliminate Dumpsters in public alleys. Sustainable Solutions Group of Atlanta will run the compactors for the city, including collecting fees from those who use them, and would get a percentage of the fees under terms that are still being negotiated, said city Public Works Director Dwan Gilliom.

The number of Americans who signed contracts to buy homes was essentially flat in January, a possible sign of a softening real estate market.
The National Association of Realtors said Friday that its seasonally adjusted pending home sales index inched up 0.1 last month to 95. The index has fallen 9 percent over the past 12 months as sales momentum has faded.
Pending sales are a barometer of future purchases: A one- to two-month lag usually exists between a signed contract and a completed sale.
Higher mortgage rates, rising prices and a tight supply of homes have restricted sales in recent months. Snowstorms across much of the country also delayed purchases. The Realtors project that sales will total 5 million this year, down from 5.1 million in 2013.
Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Marcoeconomics, thinks home buying could slow further through March.
"The bad news is that existing-home sales need to fall a bit further to move fully into line with the pending-sales index," he said in a client note.
The rising costs of buying a home have contributed to a slowdown in signed contracts over the past seven months. Sales of existing homes plummeted in January to the weakest pace in 18 months, the trade group said last week.
Some of the price pressures will be eased if more homes come onto the market in the months ahead. One way to increase the supply is through the construction of new homes, a sector not measured by the Realtors' indicator on sales.
U.S. construction spending showed a tiny increase in January as strength in housing helped to offset declines in nonresidential building and government projects.
Construction spending edged up 0.1 percent in January, significantly slower than an upwardly revised 1.5 percent gain in December, the Commerce Department reported Monday.
Home building was up 1.1 percent in January with single-family construction rising 2.3 percent and apartment building up 1 percent.
However, there was widespread weakness outside of housing. Non-residential construction fell 0.2 percent and office building was flat, with bad weather likely a factor in the weakness.
Total government construction was down 0.8 percent in January compared with December.
Construction spending totaled $943.1 billion in January at a seasonally adjusted annual rate.
The 1.1 percent rise in housing construction was just half of the 2.5 percent gain in December.
Economists had expected the January weakness, believing that construction, like other parts of the economy, would be slowed by the unusually cold weather. However, the expectation is that builders will see better gains once spring and warmer weather arrive.
Most economists are looking for sales of new and existing homes to show further gains in 2014, bolstered by an improving economy and steady job growth.
A rising stock market and a more optimistic outlook among younger Americans pushed up a measure of U.S. consumer sentiment in February.
The University of Michigan says its index of consumer sentiment rose to 81.6 from 81.2 in January. It's still slightly below December's figure.
The harsh winter weather had only a modest impact. The survey found Americans are more upbeat about their prospects than at any time in the past six months. And those under age 35 were the most optimistic in six years about their future incomes.
At the same time, the cost of home heating caused some older Americans to take a dimmer view of their finances.
Survey director Richard Curtin says that consumers' resilience in the face of cold weather bodes well for future spending.
Americans spent more in January, but the increase came from a surge in spending on heating bills during the harsh winter. Spending in areas such as autos and clothing declined.
Spending rose 0.4 percent in January after a 0.1 percent gain in December the Commerce Department said Monday. The December figure was revised down from a 0.4 percent increase.
Income grew 0.3 percent in January after no increase in December.
The overall spending increase in January reflected a 0.8 percent jump in spending on services, the effect of higher heating bills. It was the biggest increase in spending on services since October 2001.
Spending on durable goods such as autos fell 0.3 percent. And spending on nondurable goods, covering things like clothing and food, dropped 0.7 percent.
"Spending looks great but is not," said Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics. Without an 11.3 percent surge in spending on utility bills, Shepherdson said consumer spending would have been close to flat.
Consumer spending is closely watched because it drives about 70 percent of economic activity. On Friday, the government said the economy grew at a 2.4 percent annual rate in the October-December quarter, down sharply from an initial estimate of a 3.2 percent rate.
The Shelby County Election Commission isn't taking a stand on the Shelby County Commission's plan to convert the Shelby County Schools board to a nine-member body.
But the commission will file a brief urging U.S. District Judge Samuel "Hardy" Mays to rule soon on the plan.
Candidates in the August nonpartisan Shelby County Schools board and judicial races have until April 3 at noon to file their qualifying petitions for the ballot.
Election Commission attorney John Ryder said the commission is filing a brief in Memphis federal court that will urge Mays to act quickly in his review of the new districts.
Mays has to rule on the redistricting plan under terms of the court consent decree governing the reformation of public education in Shelby County.
Election commissioners have said they need word from Mays on the plan at least a month from the filing deadline to be able to adjust the ballot. Candidates have been pulling petitions since January for a 13-district school board that covers all of Shelby County, including the six suburban cities and towns that are excluded from the nine-district school board plan.
Mays has not indicated when he might rule.
Dunavant Transportation Group continues to add to its ranks.
Patrick Ellrich recently joined Dunavant Transportation as the terminal manager of its Charlotte, N.C., location.
Ellrich will be responsible for overseeing all aspects of the terminal's operations, including supervision of intermodal dispatchers, driver management, recruitment and retention, customer service and increasing profitability through greater efficiency.
Ellrich joins Dunavant Transportation from the Atlanta offices of Comtrak, where he oversaw load planning, customer service, and dispatch for more than 150 trucks in the Atlanta and Charlotte markets.
Dunavant also recently hired a new terminal manager in Nashville and driver recruitment and relations manager for its Dunavant Sea Lane Express subsidiary.
This winter's record snowfalls haven't been widespread enough to create anything more than typical high water farther south on the Mississippi River, National Weather Service hydrologist Jeff Graschel said.
The river was expected to be at or near flood stage Sunday in Cairo, Ohio, where the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers meet, but that's likely to be brief, and effects farther south are unlikely so far, said Graschel, at the weather service office in Slidell, La.
Although rain in the next three to five days in parts of the Ohio River Valley might change the prediction, he said, "Right now we're looking at about a day right at flood stage levels."
That would cause minor flooding typical of the season in that area, affecting mostly farmland, he said.

Picasso often made collages during his cubist period. A collage is made when images, coloured shapes or lettering are cut from items such as newspapers or magazines or labels and glued to another surface to make a new picture. In his collages, Picasso particularly liked using newspapers and sometimes he made drawings over the images and lettering he had cut out.
To make your own collage first of all think of an idea. Perhaps you would like to make a still life collage or a collage of people or perhaps a landscape.
Then look through old magazines or newspapers for pictures of fruit, bottles, faces, trees or other images to link in with your idea. There are lots of colours in these magazines – if the exact image of what you are looking for isn't there why not cut out the shape yourself.
You could also add 3D objects such as leaves, pieces of sponge or unwanted material from around the garden or house.
Take a piece of paper and arrange these cut out shapes and objects on your page. Mix and match different sizes and images. When you are happy with your composition glue your shapes and cut outs to the page. If you like, you could add other objects to your collage by drawing them in on your page.

Brine that bird this Thanksgiving
One of our most loyal readers, Clara Nething of Canton, Ohio, wants to try something new for Thanksgiving — a brined, roasted turkey.
Brining infuses flavor into the bird, but the main effect is tenderizing. This one is guaranteed to fall off the bones. After brining, roast your turkey as usual.
2 quarts vegetable stock
3/4 cup Kosher or sea salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon dried sage
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
2 quarts cold water
Combine vegetable stock, salt, sugar and herbs over medium heat. Simmer for 15 minutes until the salt is dissolved. Remove from heat, add cold water and cool to room temperature.
Place turkey in a large, non-metallic container. Pour brine over top, cover and refrigerate. Brine for 1 hour per pound.
Rinse all the brine off the turkey before roasting, using your favorite recipe.
Notes: Green beans make an excellent vegetable stock, and you'll have your vegetable ready in advance. The herbal flavoring will be slight and is optional.
TomM from Middlesex County, Mass., emails: "My family is weary of the mushroom soup-green bean casserole. Is there any option here?"
There is. Forget the soup, and make your own fresh mushroom sauce:
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons onion, finely minced
1 tablespoon flour
Half and half
1/2 teaspoon tarragon, dried
1/2 teaspoon white vinegar
Salt and white pepper
Melt butter, add mushrooms and onions and sauté until tender. Remove them and whisk in flour to form a ball. Cook on medium for 1 minute — do not brown. Slowly add half and half, whisking until sauce reaches the consistency of soup. Return mushrooms and onions and simmer 5 minutes. Taste to adjust seasonings. Do not boil.
Pour over 11/2 pound fresh green beans in casserole. Bake 30 minutes at 350 degrees, uncovered, or until bubbly. Garnish with bread croutons fried in 2 tablespoons butter and 2 cloves garlic, finely minced.
For a richer sauce, add a quarter cup of dry, white wine before the half and half.

Rayon is a broad category of semi-synthetic viscose fibers. There are different types of rayon and they depend on the type of plant it is made from.
RAYON - made from wood pulp.
MODAL - made from beech tree fibers.
BAMBOO - made from bamboo plants.
Modal and bamboo have a "silky" quality to them. They do not pill as easily with wash and wear.
Rayon Spandex is very light and airy, making it great for warmer weather sewing. With fabric care, be sure to wash without abrasives like zippers and velcro as it may pill faster.
These have gorgeous drape, great stretch, but recovery depends on the type- normal rayon spandex doesn't have great recovery, modal and bamboo have good recovery but are not suitable for fitted clothing like leggings. These are all going to be a lighter weight knit.
Idea's of what you can make: Flowy tops, skirts, dresses, pjs.

I've been reading R. A. Scotti's historical true-crime book Vanished Smile: The Mysterious Theft of Mona Lisa (Knopf, April 2009), which I mentioned yesterday. And it's been a pleasure after trudging through the finalists for the 2009 Delete Key Awards for bad writing in books, the winners of which will be announced Monday. Another quote from Scotti's fascinating tale, this one about Picasso's Rose period:
"In those happy days, Picasso would sell his art by the armful – a hundred francs (then worth about twenty dollars) for a stack of drawings; two thousand francs for thirty canvases. A few dealers – notably, Ambrose Vollard, astute and fair, and Clovis Sagot, an unscrupulous ex-clown who sold art out of an old apothecary – were scooping up Picasso's harlequins and saltimbanques for the price of a meal … money was a luxury, and freeloading was a way of life. 'You could owe money for years for your paints and canvases and rent and restaurant and practically everything except coal and luxuries,' Picasso remembered."

Seniors win ReachOut 56 grants for public service
Princeton seniors Anne Armstrong and Adrienne Simpson have been awarded 2008 ReachOut 56 Fellowships, which provide the winners with a $30,000 grant to undertake a yearlong public service project after graduation.
Armstrong, who is from Weston, Conn., will work at a summer camp for children with special health needs, such as HIV, cancer and diabetes. Simpson, who is from Philadelphia, plans to use music as a means of creating a college readiness program for at-risk youths.
ReachOut 56 is an effort by Princeton's class of 1956 to help nonprofit organizations perform valuable public service. More than 125 members of the class have contributed funds to the program, which is involved with a number of other public service activities in addition to granting the fellowships. The first fellowships were awarded in 2002.
Candidates for the ReachOut 56 Fellowships find a public service organization that will create a position for them and work with that organization to devise a service project.
Daniel Gardiner, a 1956 alumnus who chairs the ReachOut 56 program, said: "The two fellows we have selected, Anne Armstrong and Adrienne Simpson, are outstanding seniors with fine records of achievement and public interest activity. They have devised significant projects for worthwhile organizations -- projects that could not be undertaken without our funding."
Armstrong, a chemistry major, will work as program director for Camp Holiday Trails, a summer camp for children with special health needs in Charlottesville, Va. She has worked at Camp Holiday Trails every summer since her freshman year at Princeton.
In addition to organizing and overseeing the current camp programs, Armstrong plans to implement new programming to provide yearlong support for the children and to help the families of the campers.
"Camp Holiday Trails is a place that I keep going back to because it never fails to inspire, amaze and enlighten me. The children there challenged me to be better in my own life, and they've made me see my own power to make a difference in small but meaningful ways," Armstrong said. "The ReachOut 56 Fellowship has provided an opportunity to spend a year in service to a place that I am incredibly passionate about."
Armstrong won the Shapiro Prize for Academic Excellence in 2004. Her extracurricular activities include serving as committee chair for the Princeton Model Congress and as a peer academic adviser for Wilson College. She also is undergraduate secretary for the Princeton Tower Club. She plans to attend medical school after her ReachOut 56 Fellowship is completed.
For her ReachOut 56 project, Simpson has developed a program titled "Lift Every Voice," in which she plans to create a choir for Philadelphia students in grades 6 to 8. Simpson intends to integrate college preparation skills with her work leading the choir, including organizing college tours, offering guidance on how to apply to college, teaching vocabulary words and bringing in guest speakers to inspire the students -- giving them an overall stronger foundation to prepare for college.
The "Lift Every Voice" program will be sponsored by the Neighborhood Interfaith Movement in Philadelphia, a nonsectarian alliance of Christian, Jewish, Unitarian and Muslim congregations and faith institutions that collaborate on human welfare and social justice programs. Simpson's project is part of the movement's efforts to expand its programming to include mentorship of inner city youth.
"Some people might initially question how a choir could be used as a college preparation program, but the ReachOut 56 Fellowship gives me the opportunity and resources to take what began as an idea and turn it into a program that I believe is going to make real changes in a community," Simpson said. "As someone who grew up in Philadelphia, I know that children need a program like 'Lift Every Voice.' They need to know that they too can succeed in life and, most importantly, they need to know how to go about achieving their goals."
Simpson is majoring in sociology and pursuing certificates in African American studies and Spanish. She has served as a Community House project coordinator for the English as a Second Language tutoring program and the Princeton Young Achievers program. She also has been active as musical director and president of the University Gospel Ensemble, as a mentor for the Black Student Union Leadership and Mentoring Program and as a member of the Black Student Union. She plans to attend law school after completing her ReachOut 56 Fellowship.

Police & Fire: January 31, 2013
Fatal accident
Michigan State Police from the St. Ignace Post report responding to an accident that claimed the life of a Marquette man on Wednesday.
According to reports, Eric Mason, 39, was traveling on M-28 shortly before 4 p.m. when he lost control of his vehicle and spun into the path of an oncoming semi-truck approximately three miles west of Seney.
Mason reportedly succumbed to injuries sustained in the crash.
The driver of the semi-truck, an Ohio man, escaped without injury.
Michigan State Police were assisted at the scene of the accident by Seney Fire and First Response, Luce County EMS and Portage Township EMS.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
Four arrested
Acting on tips from U.S. Border Patrol and Sault Tribal Police, Chippewa County Sheriff Deputies conducted a Wednesday evening traffic stop on northbound I-75. A subsequent investigation resulted in the arrest of the driver, Kenneth E. Major, 39, of Kincheloe for operating while intoxicated, operating under the influence of drugs and open intoxicants in a motor vehicle.
All three passengers were also taken into custody. Samantha L. Major, 33, of Hersey was taken into custody for possession of synthetic narcotics, while Donald Crawford II, 42, of Goetzville and Hailey L. Major, 21, of Iron Mountain were both arrested for open intoxicants in a motor vehicle and on the force of outstanding warrants.
All four individuals were booked into the Chippewa County Jail.
Warrant arrest
Chippewa County Sheriff Deputies also report the arrest of Corey J. Shipman, 40, of the Sault on a pair of misdemeanor warrants out of the 91st District Court. Shipman was picked up in the 1500 block of W. 4th Avenue Tuesday evening and booked into the Chippewa County Jail.
Vehicles damaged
Sault Police report a 2:30 p.m. Wednesday traffic accident at the intersection of Three Mile and Seymour that left two vehicles with substantial damage.
According to reports, an eastbound vehicle on Three Mile had stopped, and was waiting for traffic to clear before turning north onto Seymour when a second vehicle slid through the intersection — causing a westbound vehicle to take evasive action. The westbound vehicle avoided the crash with the second vehicle, crossed the centerline and struck the eastbound vehicle, resulting in heavy damage.
None of the involved parties required medical treatment at the scene.
The driver who caused the accident by sliding through the stop sign left the crash site prior to the arrival of police. The investigation presumably continues to determine who was behind the wheel of that vehicle.
Chippewa County Sheriff Deputies and Pickford Township Firefighters converged on a burning residence on Weston Road shortly before 6 a.m. Wednesday.
The sheriff's office reports the structure was a total loss before emergency personnel were called to the scene. The fire destroyed the home, all of the contents and claiming the lives of two dogs and a cat.
Firefighters were able to save a garage and some other nearby outbuildings.
There was no one home at the time of the fire.

Yesterday at the markets was pretty full on, when I got up it was really crazy and almost surreal. The ground was wet, however it was dry in the air and it wasn't raining and there was just a thick layer of fog everywhere. It was difficult to get to the station (packed with 3 back-packs full of stock) when you can barely see cars moving around you. Pretty scary actually.
I got to the markets (a touch late, but not overly) and noticed that there were very few people there... all the store holders were scared of the potential (and foretasted) rain... I didn't even check, and I'm glad I didn't because it was an awesome day with the exception of 5 minutes of light sprinkle showers. My friend John (or is it Jon.. ?) who owns a food stall there and I had a great talk in the afternoon and he stayed in bed until the every last minute that he decided to get up and get his shit together for the markets. He didn't have much pasta/salads, so I continued to embrace my new found vegetarianism and had a really delicious bean nachos! I fucking love nachos... now if I could only find a way to be able to eat them without running out of sour cream. They put an ungodly dollop of the stuff on there, I'm talking a tower... and it vanished. I think the sour cream thieves are out again... lock your fridges ppl.
I took Jon's 'lil Canon A200 with me too, and took a bunch of (mostly random) photos - most were pretty fucked, but some turned out decent. I have decided that I'm going to make a gallery just of random shit from the markets just to plop them all somewhere. I got some kinda cool shots of my stand too, its lookin a bit dodgey this week as I didn't take them until about midday and a lot of people messed up my lil displays and arrangements. Oh well, at least now people can stop asking me to take photos of my stall! ^_^
For those of you who didn't notice my latest addition - check out the Play Piering gallery to your right. It's all new, and kinda freaky. Nothing too extreme (yet), its really my first decent play and was an excuse to put some sorta freaky shit up on deviant art. (http://joeltron.deviantart.com).
I'm very excited about tomorrow, its me and Juzzies 3 year anniversary... no shit, three fucking years. It seams only yesterday she was staggering over to me, drunk as hell, murmuring "shovveee love" and collapsing next to me.. oh, what lovely memories. lol. I can't wait to give her all of her cool pressies, I sorta went pretty out this year (and no, I'm still broke as hell... I just wanna make her happy!). I will post pics AFTER tomorrow, so I don't ruin the surprise ('sif she reads my blog anyway, but I'mma be paranoid all the same).
Anyhow, to fill you guys in on the last couple days - I haven't been on the irc://#IAM chat much lately, due to me feeling like total fucking crap and having so much work on I could fucking explode. So sorry if you've missed me. I got my bike pre-learners certificate deelie... Crazy shit. I was so fucking petrified on that damn bike, I think I went okay however. The other two guys had both been riding bikes for many years, and had their full car licenses - I felt pretty n00b had not even driver a car/bike before.
Why the hell not, here's some photos I took of the place I was at during our break. I'm not gonna put up any pics of the trainer or other guys (I don't think they would care, but I didn't ask all the same). So check it out, enjoy and please post comments/ideas/anything about my play piercing or soon to go up 'Random Market Shit' gallery.
Oh yeah, I had some fun with new jewellery! WIldcat currently have a crazy special on a bunch of blackline tombstone navel rings. Heres the stock photo:
http://www.wildcataustralia.com.au/images/products/kts03.jpg. You are meant to wear it so that the slave ball is on the top of the navel, and sort of covers the bar and belly button area. They are pretty cool, especially in blackline.
You can see in some of the following pictures what I did, but basically I stole the dangely bit of it and attached it to my central labret. I think it looked pretty cool, and I got quite a few comments on it yesterday - mostly "wow, you got a new piercing?!!" even though I had it done since year 11 in high school. Still, I think its cute.

It's my friend Ben's bday today! w007! .. well.. yesterday, we are just back from teepan-yakie! w007! It was really cool and it was great to catch up with Ben and Kristy (his crazy wife). Its sorta scary sometimes, we have known each other for quite some time now and he is only 3 months older than me, but married with a lovely child. What totally different paths in life we choose.
It was really great food tho, I'm going to post some pictures we took tonight... lets just say, jez throwing food object bad reaction times = funny ass fucking photos. I can't talk tho, I coped some rice up my fucking nose (seriously)... I think I got a little cocky after catching the twe eggs that he pegged @ me. lol. Fun times were had by all, I can't wait till we all go out as a group again! (perhaps... this time... nakah?)
On a bit of a sadder note, during the past couple days of trying out helmets and the like.... i have aggravated the shit outta' my poop eyebrow piercing. Hes like ~9months old, but still weeps lymph and flares up regularly. Its such a fucking shame, because I really loved each and every one of my eyebrow piercings (I've had in total of 8, the most at one time being 3). I have been thinking more about my flesh-coil eyebrow idea lately, it basically consists of three parallel eyebrow piercings with a sort of |_|''| design going on. Naturally, it would be mans second best friend (next to large guage labia piercings) - Teflon! and would have a ball affixed either end. Everyone seems to state that my mouth is too 'busy' now, and I need to draw attention upwards. I agree, but how! Do I risk six times my current eyebrow hell, am I missing something that everyone else out there knows? Do I smell like a llama in heat? TELL ME PPL!
Well, It is now 7:00am, I've been up a while now.. (me and sleep lately have not been on par) and I am off to brave the lovely cold Penrith air and march over (seriously, I need to walk) to do my up-right course (they teach you how to sit on a bike, and ctrl the gears and such... kinda boring, but a requirement for my license none the less).
Fuck.. I'm late.. and uploading photos.... lol. Heres a picture of the prezze we got for ben, entilted 'Memories' (yes, if your geeky - youll get the pun) and also some cool shots of last night. Also please look in my main gallery so you all can laugh and snicker (or perhaps gimmie suggestions to bring attention 'upwards' - yes, thats the most fuck up thing I've ever been suggested... but hey)

I was tinkering with my septum piercing for quite some time now, in fact well before my lip project really began. I never really took it too serious, until about a month ago I decided that I would try it out for a bit.
I had a captive and CBB *sitting* in there for a couple weeks... just playing with the idea, as you can note in some photos (mostly Winter Magic, I was sporting a cute blackline captive). I actually got some comments by very observant friends about how nice it looked in the photos, and the thought grew and grew.
I purchased a pair of septum forceps about 3 months ago, mostly just to play with (they are very pretty) - but with the intention of piercing my own and/or Jez's septum. At one point I even sterilized a blackline CBB, clamps and all - and then clamped up, however backed out soon after opening the cannula. No idea why, I just wasn't mentally on the ball that day. I hate any negative association with my modifications, it had to be done in the right mind state. And that brought us to today.
I have had a fucking crazy past couple weeks, running on ~3hrs sleep a night until last night where I actually felt very over-rested after a whopping 9.5hrs. After a couple coffees to clear the old noodle, I was good to go and feeling very caught up on my much needed rest. Mix that in with a pretty slow relaxing (and broke) day @ the markets (god damn it, come buy stuffs ppl!) and a nice afternoon filled with ET and casual programming (mencoder dvd ripping front end, screen shots/code coming soon!) - I was pretty damn relaxed and in a positive mood. I decided last night, on the train back from glebe actually, that I want to finally (again) quit smoking.
I fucking hate smoking, and its been pissing me off for quite some time now... I have tried many times before (stress always gets to me hard), but I am just fed up with it. I'm hoping on all my friends and my lovely Juzzie's support on helping me overcome this.... anyway, back on track - the septum is my first step and a constant reminder to keep my head up and keep trying to improve my self. I have been gradually eating better/getting fit over the past few months, mostly for my own health but also in preparation for my September (21st birthday) suspension. I am also working on my mental health, most noticeably my recent decline in anxiety and "ups and downs". Oh yeah, I'm also thinking about going vegetarian again... don't know if I can wave good bye to my cabanosi (cool sausage thingies), but I have very fond (healthier) memories of when I was for quite a number of years when I was younger. I guess I'll just have to see how it goes,
Yah! My vertical labret pics recently went online, didn't get the email (server transfer, I assume they will all be sent out soon). Most of them got cut, but they handful up are wonderful. Now I need to get off my ass and finish my experience on it and get that up too!
On a side note, I am really looking forward to tomorrow afternoon... all day I am visiting clients and such and then I'm going to go see juzzie. I lent her my 6g (4mm) tapering rod and gave her 4x 4mm purple titanium canisters a number of weeks ago, word on the playground is that she finally (and gradually) stretched from 8guage to them - so I can't wait to see how they look! I always have troubles sleeping @ juzzies house, with the fun of her playing loud games, with lights on, while im trying to sleep and all, with her seaming lack of pillows... no idea why, maybe my head is just too fucking huge (seriously) - but I need sufficient pillows or I get very sore necks. The good news is, she just got some nice ones for me when I stay around (w007!).
Well, Its now 1am and I need to be visiting clients @ 8am, so I must get my beauty sleep (eheheh, imma need a lot!). Oh yeah, please check out the new septum pics and in my main gallery too! I like added like ~25 new pics round the place, and I'm a fair bit happier with it all now. I need to take some nice pics of my power-implant now, as I don't have any recent ones.
Well, im off to noozie land! TTFN!

It started at 5:50, when my alarm went off. I crawled outta bed, excited at the day to come. I had to very carefully take my steps as I lurked across my room (as remnants of notebooks were scattered loving on my floor), as mounds of body jewellery lured me to accidentally tip them over in a raging sleepy stumble. I then made it to the shower and woke the fuck up.
The next hour was a bit of a blur, from drying my self to hoping on the 'puta - however somewhere along they journey I managed to clean up the majority of my desk and surrounding floor space for some potential buyers of my leased apartment to have a walk-through (basically anywhere that I didn't have to get out of my chair, was spotless). Jez was up (hoorarh!) and I got dressed and we cleaned the rest of the place up. It wasn't that bad (compared) as we had a client around the night before, however my room was the official "this doesn't belong in the living room" dumping ground... and showed it.
I got all my shit together before the horde of business-type clones came around and headed into the cold (lovely) morning air, my new Twiztid charm bouncing around my neck and likewise in my ears. I got to my local mod-shop (Wicked Ink) come 9:30 and waited (with two pies.. muhuahhaah) for Lugh (I dunoo wtf.. but you say it Luke... ^_^) to open the door and began my day of much the learnage!
I basically got the ropes of the shop today, and a fuck load of really cool ideas how to fix it up/make it run nicer/sell more jewellery. I think I can put most of my ideas credit to the many hours I spend pondering my 'dream studio' (If I ever get enough money) as well as kick-titty jewellery selling ventures. Very exciting shit, seriously.
Hung out with the crew, helping out where I could... I think I got in the way a bit to start, but I hope I got the gist of it by the end. Tomorrow at 12:00 I am going to meet the lovely Kellie (co-owner) at the shop and we are heading to Paramatta to a fucking cheap computer seller to pick up three 17"-19" TFT monitors for the shop! w007! new digital booking system (thank you, most likely Sunbird.. rock on mozilla!) and a cool linux-out-the-front-slut-box machine for customers to use to look up piercings/browse their soon to come new spanking website (oh yes, its the sex). The idea, is when the site is not in use - it (along with the other screen, facing out the main glass entrance) will be showing a random assortment of images gathered from the new site's gallery database (pretty shweeeet, eh?). Very exciting shit, can't wait!
So yeah, just home from today.. Went to a mad fruity restaurant for lunch with Kellie, and met some mad crazy lady called Kylie (I didn't catch it all, but Kellie was meant to be doing some spray-tanning thing with her that fell through). No shit, all the walls had REALLY crazy crap like balsa wood crafted airplanes, and fruity giant teddy bears and shit. It looked awesome, imagine going into a gift shop (yes, they have one attached!) and zooming in on a bookcase of shit... then put life size tables in there and nice food. I felt a little claustrophobic, but in general it was really lovely.
I still feel very sad every time I look upon where Jamie's red lovely bowl used to sit.... if I think too hard about it, I nearly start to cry again. He had a good life, and I loved him. It just fucking breaks my heart even thinking about him. In comparison to the life my neighbors fighting fish had (and I'm sure compared to many others), his was fucking paradise. I try to remember that, but it still doesn't quite stop hurting.
Anyway, as its now 9pm and I'm feeling pretty drained.. I might do some Technetium work and head to the bedness that I call shleepah town.
TTFN! Heres a lovely (and the only) pic of my missed Jamie too. Thnx to Jon for taking it like over a week ago, I tried many times before.. but none came out well. You can't really make him out, but hey. RIP Jamie.

Well. The past few days have been both very cool and at the same time very fucking hard for me to deal with. I'm flooded with mixed emotions from head to toe.
Ill start with Saturday (Winter Magic festival). It started pretty cool, 4am starts for some reason I always enjoy. I was really excited about it actually, It was a fantastic change to get my jewelery business out there and meet a bunch of weirdos. Always fun. We ended up getting there a bit late, and I started to just totally stress out. I haven't been that stressed in an umber of years, I literally felt as if my blood was on fire rushing through my body. Mix that in with anxiety, a HUGE crowd (I'm talking packed... like a moving mass of people) and some not so pleasant information I found about the night before. Nothing too serious, just friendship politics and such, the crap I usually try and steer away from - but this time it smashed me fucking hard in the face.
The day wold have been totally shit, if it wasn't for the all the people that came to visit me and naturally Jon's unexpected help was by the main reason why the day actually worked out. He spent the entire day by my side, from getting there to selling and packing up. It was a FUCKING long day, by the way. We didn't get home until ~9pm. Much love for that man, this week has been quite an eye opener to who my real friends are. I'm glad that you are truly one of them.
Thanks to all those who came to visit me from Wicked Ink, Industrial Strength and all my friends from high school! It's been a long time I know, and I appreciated it greatly. My stand looked like shit after only a couple hours... everyone in Kattoomba are very touchy-feely. I'm really happy with the turn out and turn over. I ended up setting ~$1700 on the one day, which is quite substantial considering our prices (about 3-4x what I would normally do at Glebe). I did spend about that on new stock, so I didn't really gain anything financially - but I now have a shit load more stock and met a lot of really lovely people.
I think the cold got the better of me, however. As the past two days I have been bed ridden with a fucking nasty cold... I'm talking green urine, orange snot.... you name it, its not looking healthy. I've been taking extra care of my piercings however (especially my vertical labrets) as I lost two piercings last time I got sick and my immune system went to shit.
Yesterday, juzzie came to visit me and make me feel better. When I am sick, I'm always a lil cranky and need special attention given or I get upset even easier. I don't think juzzie has been around enough when I'm sick to know what to do... but a little bit of sympathy and kind heartiness's can go a long way when you are in need. Was nice to have someone
My fishy Jamie died today. :( I got up this afternoon to check on him, as he wasn't looking too great the past couple days. I made sure his water was nice and clean about a week ago, and he is always fed daily.... but he just wasn't his normal colorful self lately. He is an imported fighting fish, you know.. the really sexy ones with mad colorful fins that flare out. I found him belly-side up this afternoon, and I instantly knew. I was really upset about it, I haven't lost a pet in many years. He lived quite a long life, and even after his two attempted escapes/suicides was going pretty strong.
One time, we found him behind a desk on the carpet... covered in 'throth', hair and fluff... it was really scary, and then he made a lil flop and we quickly put him back in his bowl. After like an hour of trying to clean him (really carefully moving the water around near him, to try and get some of the crap off) he began to move a little bit. By move, I mean he kinda bounced around the bowl and I thought he was dead. It took him a while, and me pushing food around for him to finally bounce open mouthed into some food. He ate it, and started to move around to find more. I was so happy to know that he was alive. It only took him a few days to be back to his normal self, but we still have no idea how long he was on the ground for - just very lucky that I happened to check up on him before going out. RIP Jamie, I'mma miss you.
I just dont' think I'm fucking equipped for any of this. From loosing pets, to this fucking friendship political crap. Sometimes I wish I wasn't so fucking sensitive.

Heckler subdued with stun gun at gun control rally in New Hampshire
Event attracts passionate Second Amendment supporters
Police used an electronic stun gun to subdue a Brentwood man Tuesday night at a gun control rally in Concord.
Officers took 52-year-old Daniel Musso to the ground shortly after he interrupted a speech in favor of expanded background checks for people purchasing guns. Reporter Adam Sexton watched the altercation unfold.
Sexton said the rally attracted a passionate pro-Second Amendment crowd, including Musso, who now faces multiple charges, including simple assault of a police officer. The confrontation started at the podium when Musso interrupted a speech by John Cantin of Manchester.
Cantin, who was wounded and lost his daughter in a 2009 shooting, was speaking in favor of expanded background checks on gun sales.
"Why are you shaking talking about this? You're not the truth!" Musso said.
After numerous interjections, Musso decided to walk away, but Concord police had been called. When officers began talking to him, Musso initiated physical contact with police, Sexton said.
Officers struggled to subdue Musso for about a minute and a half, Sexton said, before they had to use a stun gun on him.
Many involved in the counter protest thought Musso did nothing wrong.
The rally was part of a bus tour sponsored by Mayors Against Illegal Guns, which has made New Hampshire a battleground on the gun control issue by targeting Sen. Kelly Ayotte, who voted expanding background checks.
Some in the gun rights crowd are calling for the escalation of the counter protest and the altercation with police unfortunate.
"I don't condone what happened," said Jack Kimball of the Granite State Patriots PAC. "But at the same time, I still would encourage people to come out peacefully and have their say."
"People just need to be more respectful -- don't get so emotional about this," said Cantin, who said he will not be intimidated. "Everybody has a right to their opinion."
Ayotte's office released a statement on Tuesday night regarding her vote on the issue saying, "Sen. Ayotte voted for legislation that had bipartisan support to fix the current broken background check system, increase the prosecution of those who illegally seek to obtain firearms and provide additional resources for school safety, while protecting the Second Amendment rights of all law-abiding citizens."

Joaquin Phoenix
Personality Number 4
" You see so many earnest characters in movies all the time, everyone has a purpose."
Joaquin Phoenix is an American actor, producer, music video director, musician and activist who has received a Grammy Award, a Golden Globe Award and three Academy Award nominations for his work.
He was born on Monday October 28th 1974, in Río Piedras, Puerto Rico.
Joaquin Phoenix radiates reliability and consistency. People trust Joaquin and feel secure with his judgment. Phoenix is seen as a cornerstone of a business and is relied upon to do his work efficiently and expertly. He has strength and respectability.
Phoenix tends to dress in a utilitarian manner, concerned mostly with convention, practicality, durability, and price. He presents himself as someone who values correctness, control, and precision. All of this stems from the fact that Joaquin's most prized characteristic is his work. Joaquin wants to be judged on the basis of his performance, rather than his appearance.
Joaquin Phoenix is frugal and has learned to respect a dollar. He is concerned about the security of his future and those he loves. However, this may appear to others as a bit too austere. Phoenix tends to wear earth colors and conventional attire. He could benefit by putting a little flair in his dress, wear more uplifting colors, and loosen his dress with less severe lines. If Joaquin wears a brown suit, he better include a bright tie or some jewelry.
Joaquin Phoenix is a family person. He loves the intimacy, consistency, and the security a family provides. Joaquin is a good provider and protector. But family members may take his efforts for granted. Phoenix is a true patriot. He loves his country and is an integral part of his community. Joaquin Phoenix's consistency and adherence to his well-laid plans usually pays off in a comfortable and secure future.
You and Joaquin
About Joaquin's Personality number
Phoenix's Personality number often serves as a censoring device, both in terms of what Joaquin sends out, as well as what he allows to approach.
