Yes, thank you, Angie, for the lovely cake. As you all may know by now................I LOVE CAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, and yes, Dan.......congrats on Onederland!!!!

Hey, do you guys think if I made toddler/baby dresses they might sell on ebay? I will try to find some pictures of some of the ones I have made in the past to see what you think. I really kind of want a job......but not a traditional one :)

DS went to DMV to replace his 90 day license and do you know they wouldn't give it to him?!? He has to have a parent with him and his birth certificate (again!)!!! Good grief! And of course, we just had his SS card and birth certificate out for his driving lessons and for DMV and low and behold.... now I can't find either of them! I know they were both in a legal envelope and I wrote his name and "Social Security Card/Birth Certificate" on the envelope.
I started looking for it this morning and it literally made me sick when I couldn't find it! Of course, he's off today and off with his friends having fun... since Mom is at home and can look for it! :flame:
Gotta go... I'm about to give up and just try and get replacements for both of them too! (GOOD GRIEF!)
Blessings,

Hey, guys (she sighed wearily as she crawled up to the computer and forced herself to type). We are mostly moved in and loving the new house. If you came over to visit, you would think that we had moved in miraculously fast, but that's because of our moving strategy. I had DH put all the boxes in the garage instead of in the house. That way, I just go get a box at a time and unload it whenever I'm in the mood. I just didn't want to be weaving in and out of boxes in every room.

I'm actually at school today, working on my classroom. My classroom is far from ready. I had intended to get it completely done before the move, but never got back up here in the midst of packing. Kids will be here on Monday!!

Nicole - YES, they would sell! Handmade clothes sell great on eBay! I'm such an eBay freak!!

Nicole -- I am an Ebay addict. I buy so many of DS's clothes on there. My friend makes pillowcase dresses and sells them on her website, they are super simple and cheap to make, but so so cute. You can google them to see what they look like. I'd love to see one that you've made.

Felicia -- Welcome back from boxland!

Pearl -- How about you tell DS that you found the envelope, but you've re-hidden it for him to find, so he doesn't miss out on any of the fun of looking?

ok, I put a photo of a dress I made for 11 yo DD when she was a baby in my profile. I LOVE making little dresses, and would love to make $$$ doing it. I like old fashioned type dresses..........so check it out and see what you think.

Felicia..........I know how tiring it is to move......I had to do it twice in a year a few years ago. the best part though.......your stuff is actually organized for a little while :)

Pearl......good luck with DS's ID stuff. I know what a pain it can be.

Oh, also......if any of you know of someone looking for a custom made miniature bride dress, or a flower girl dress (yes, there is a difference).......hook me up. I made ODS 5 miniature brides dresses in her first 5 years. They are super fun to make :)

Nicole....is there ANYTHING you don't do??? LOL Your dresses are adoreable. I think they'd sell on ebay. My mom has bought a few things from ebay for DFD....it's easy to find girls stuff..harder for cute boys stuff...in my opinion. So I'd say....Sew away!

POP so far today.......now I'm off into the sweltering heat!

Nicole - I think you could sell the dresses no problem! The one you pictured is adorable.

Felicia - Glad your back and great strategy for unpacking. I actually left boxes in my garage for a year! It was like all new stuff when I finally went through it:)

Pearl - so sorry the DS's wallet catastrophe is growing. I guess we mom's always have to find things. My DH or DD can be looking right at something and I have to go pick it up and hand it to them.

Heather - congrats on the POP!

Ended up going out to lunch today with my sis and had the WW Chicken Confetti at Applebee's. It was actually pretty good. I don't think it was a horrible choice. That scale has got to move this week. We've got a big family event on Saturday to celebrate my nephew's upcoming marriage. The menu is barbecue - YIKES I just want to make sure we have plenty of veggies and fruits so I can fill up on those. In addition to the pork bbq we are having chicken, I just hope I can pass up the pork for it:)

Oh well better run! Big hello to all of you out there!

Nicole-The dress is beautiful. I miss my DD being little, she just turned 18 ::sighing::

I read a quote in the paper earlier I had to share.....
"That's as useless as a woodpecker on a metal pole."

Kim you are probably more smoking hot than your 18 year old now!

Nicole..make me some dresses for my girls and I'll bake you cakes.

Okay it took me forever to catch up on all the sayings but a friend of mine with a sharp tongue always says:

She was all over that like a fat kid on a smartie or Pavarotti on a cheese log (this being the large opera singer)

I wish I could remember some of my scottish granny's sayings but I have to vote for Granny Pfieffer to take the cake.. Katie sounds like she was a HOOT!

Hello all! I am new here and new to lawl (12th day). I've enjoyed reading all of the posts. Just wanted to say hi!

Welcome Penelope23, glad you found this site.

Welcome Penelope--hang around--it's entertaining if nothing else.

Nicole--adorable dress--of course you could sell them--perfect for you!

Felicia--we go back the 20th and the kids start the 27th--everything in my room is still in boxes--guess I need to get motivated. Congrats again on the new house.

Pearl--I hope things start looking up for replacing everything--or the wallet turns up (BEFORE you go through all the trouble). I can't imagine. I did make a file of every card/acct. #/phone #/etc. from my wallet a while back but I sure hope I don't ever need it.

Hi to all--laziness hit hard after the house was finished--have KB class tonight so I don't want to shower and now I just feel blah.

Welcome Penelope - you will have fun here.

Nicole - dress is just darling. I love the old fashioned look as well.
I am sure that you could sell them. They could be the next big hit. Dresses by Mama N vs - Baby Gap or Carters.
