Today is my oldest son’s 21st birthday. I had planned on giving him cash for his gift, but didn’t want to just put some $$ in a card. So with him thinking I am still his money tree I wanted to make one, but had trouble finding one of those fake wire trees. I had to get creative, so I used some poinsetta flowers and removed the flowers from the stems and added the dollar bills. I can’t wait to see his face! 
Ever have one of those days, weeks or months where the kids drive you crazy!? This must be the mouthiest month ever with my two! I am going to make a box and name it my Lipovox, and every time they get mouthy or lippy they will have to put in a dollar! It won't take long for either 1)I have a small sum of money to go shopping with or 2) they catch on fast and shape up! As much as I would love to be able to go shopping, I would much rather have two boys who are well behaved!
I have noticed more and more digital signage along the highways lately. It was only a matter of time, what with the TV's going digital, the billboards had to get in on it as well. There is one along the highway I drive the most, that at night time it is actually a little to bright. I think this may cause many distractions for drivers, and we have too many other things that distract us, so we don't really need this one to add to it.
When I first started working out I liked the treadmill, but this last six weeks I found out I really like using the elliptical. I have not only lost some weight, but I have lost inches in all the right places! I am down a pant size, and down two sizes in my shirts! This has NEVER happened! I need to stay on top of the maintaining this progress I made, I want to look great in a swim suit this summer! I will be getting some of my shake stuff to help with this, and it will be a great cool drink for the hot summer weather.
I am hoping to save up enough money this year to purchase an LCD TV. I have made some knitting items that have started off my savings. I would like to whip out more things to have enough for a craft show this fall. Right now I am working on some baby items for a friend at church, and if the sweater turns out like I want, I will be making more of them. I am still wanting to make candles, but I can't get the formula down right for this.
