MANual labor.

the no doggie door thing in the new house was not cool with orion.
and surprisingly they don't keep doors pre-installed with the doggie door on hand.
so we decided to take on the task of installing a kit our self.
when we started we assumed the door was wood.
it was metal.
a bit more difficult.
here's how it went:
using this tool, caused a lot of sparks and scared me.
i wanted hubs to keep his fingers.
finished product.

i put up a screen "door" while lance did the hard work
i love a man who works hard.
and takes baths.
actually a man taking a bath is a silly thought for me.

10 more facts about me

1) my fear of lightning is like unto a three year olds fear of lightning.

2) if i'm sitting in a chair 95% of the time, my legs will be folded underneath me. that other 5% of the time is either at church or if my legs can't fit in chair with me. or if it'd be seen as socially unacceptable. i know the boundaries.

3) i'd rather sit for an hour than stand for 20 minutes. know that excuse people say after being offered a seat? "oh i've been sitting all day, i'll just stand" will never come out of my mouth.

4) every time i am on an elevator i worry that it'll fall to the bottom and so i wont stand with my knees locked in case i need to brace for impact.

5) orion's paws smell like fritos and i probably give them a smell once a day.

6) i could eat a whole bag of fritos with no problem. or regrets.

7) i can develop a very impressive food baby. we're talking like 5 months along impressive.

8) when i was little i caught a tiny snake and kept it a few days until it bit me than i decided it was time to let it go.

9) i can't pronounce the word statistics.

10) i was once in a local commercial with my best friend from high school. did i mention that the store was only open for a few months? hopefully my acting skills, or lack of acting skills, had nothing to do with that. i was told by a few people that my commercial debuted before SNL. prime time television right there.

you dont always get whatcha wanted...

we've all seen this picture floatin' around pinterest a time or two.
chevron is so hot right now
and the idea looked so easy in my head.
get a canvas, use a little tape, spray paint that baby and you're good to go.
here's my attempt.
um yeah, maybe it's not so easy.
(unless you're freya, whom i'm sure would have mastered this)
i'm open to all suggestions of how to fix this.
maybe i'll just shove it in a closet and act like it never happened.

So now i think i'm going to give this a go.
i mean, where can you go wrong?
also,
i would really like to have this above our bed,
but i haven't been able to find an "&" anywhere.
not michael's and not hobby lobby.
so if you're out and about and happen see one, hit me up.
