Randomness

I think Elle's getting her molars. It's not fun in this house right now.

I got "accepted" to participate in Chicago's biggest Street fair and I am so excited. I thought we were rejected, well we were at first but then they just told us today that they had some spaces open up and we got in. "We" are me plus 3 other Chicago crafters that I've met this year who make some cool shit. The problem is that it's on September 13-14th so I only have a month. I've been so busy with trying to baby proof my house for my newly turned one year old baby turned stunt woman, that I haven't been able to organize my craft room which I shoved into my back spare room. But I guess this is the time.

My mom is finally coming back tomorrow from her vacation and am I glad. She's my employee, ha ha. She helps me out at my store and does most of the alterations which I've been having to do so it's been a long 2 week for this mama. And I'm excited to see her again. I might regret that come Friday.

I have to mail out my Thank you card for Elle's birthday party, ummmm from June 29th!! I know, I've always sucked at Thank you Cards. I still haven't sent any for my wedding and that was 4 years ago. It's eating at me everyday but I just don't have the motivation. and is it bad that I've forgotten who half the gifts were from. Yes, I suck.

I'm so proud of A-man, he's been up until the weeeeeeee hours of the morning trying to work from home. He wants to start his own machine shop but until we can afford to rent a place for him, he has all his machines in the garage and he got a "job" order from his "internship" and he's been working really hard to get it done and do it well. He's doing this WHILE teaching himself this crazy CNC 3-phase mill thingy which basically needs to be programed to cut metal. and it's all numbers and decimals and axes (plural of axis, I know it looks wrong but it isn't, weird). Anyways, I'm proud of him and hopeful now that he's got his first potentially paying job. This is my only hope to be a stay at home mom so I'm keeping my fingers crossed and helping him out by giving him time and space, and nap time:)
