AND SHE CAN'T BE STOPPED!

I can't be stopped at this point, an all out zombie apocalypse would only slow me down, I have the need to make ornaments  Every year I go through this like an addiction. I find something that looks cool and make them until someone in the house says "enough crazy lady".  They haven't said it yet so I currently can't be stopped.

there are still more minions coming and another Boba Fett cause I think he just turned out super cool, and an Iron Man (why not right?)

LIFE CHANGES JUST ROLL WITH IT

  how goes the job search you ask? not good..not good at all...I was in a remarkable specialized field especially for this area , which I love and don't want to move from..I found myself applying to McDonald's last week just so I feel some control over the situation, I found myself willing to take a huge pay difference just to see a paycheck coming in.  The practical person in me said "take whatever and keep looking" and I am a practical, need to support the family kind of gal. The big guy is a "sign from God, change of life, do what makes you happy" kind of guy, I love that about him, which got me thinking of what I would like to do ?
   Oddly enough, growing up I only ever wanted to be a lawyer, that didn't happen.  I switched it up to paralegal...that didn't happen..babies happened and art happened.  Life happened and went by fast, but I digress, I would love to be a social worker.  why you ask? I have watched what happens to children when the social workers that should have helped just didn't, for whatever reason, the child gets left where they shouldn't be and it is a fight to the death to get them help..I know first hand how this works and I want to help that out.  I also thought, court reporter/stenographer cause that just seems cool and would satisfy my nosey tendencies.
   So today is the day the decision will be made, I will talk it through with the appropriate people (the big guy) and make a decision ...ugh!

IT IS BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE STARWARSMAS

Thanksgiving came and went, time to put up the trees..TREES? plural? are you mad woman?!
As I clearly state this is a nerd house, however some of the children are not practicing so...one tree for them where the grand parents come and gifts are placed for a present opening of epic proportions..the other tree displayed in the front room for the whole world to see is the Star Wars tree.  (when it is at its full glory this year pics will be posted) The Star Wars tree had been a dream of mine for years, how I longed for a total nerd tree..but to my great sadness it was always out of reach but no longer ! not as of last year when we lucked in to a second tree and discovered that me and the big guy shared the same nerd dream..off to crafting I went since Star Wars ornaments are like insane expensive.  I spent last xmas season making red x-wing orgami ornaments, miniature box ornaments...felt ornaments, you name it I was doing it to fill a tree that apparently used to be a tardis. (threw in a Dr. Who reference what ?what?)
   okay so this year as we were digging through boxes I found the bin of Christmas crafts yet to be completed that I thought got lost in the move , well rejoice cause I found the C3P0 and R2D2 ornaments I had started and then lost focus and never finished until....that's right now...

I finished the C3PO's first, not super thrilled with them but you can totally tell who they are so can't really complain, the others are in mid-production in this picture ..you will have to wait for pics of the tree to see them in full completion cause I just had to get them on the tree as soon as they were done and could not possibly wait the 3 additional seconds to take a picture.

Around here it is beginning to look a lot like Starwarsmas and I LOVE IT!
