I haven't blogged on here forever. I was laughing reading the blogs about my sons concert and the "shake" incident because after THIS year's concert (which was great by the way) we went to where? YOU GOT IT! Steak N Shake, LOL. We decided we didn't want to cook and since we had such great memories from it last year (not, lol) we should eat there.

Because I was checking out the blog of my new Etsy friend Marisa, I thought I'd blog on my blog. So thank you Marisa! You can check out Marisa's Etsy shop right here: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6953211

I have a new shop on Etsy and have been having a lot of fun with it. It is a bead and jewelry shop. Here is the link: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6950951

Well, I guess that's it for now. I need to go visit the Bead Hive and then to bed for me so I can be up bright and early to pack packages!

Great comment on Gay Marriage

About my boy.....

I was looking back at the "strawberry shake" incident and had to laugh. Cristian is doing really well and reads like crazy. He is also playing the violin now. His sister (my Amity) is very sick with a cold/flu and he was patting her on the back earlier. He is such a SWEET 11 year old:).

Lazy Fridays:)

I love the fact that Chris and I are both off on Fridays:). It's our "relax and rest up" time. We did go out and do some grocery shopping today. Haven't blogged in a while. I usually blog on Myspace. If you ever want to check my blog out there, here is the link: http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog&Mytoken=0C8D2D11-6847-45EA-8965A208AA00898951996953 or if that link doesn't work and you are on myspace, request me as a friend and I'll add you. My "space" is http://myspace.com/cherienoel. I blog about recovery, beading, other blogs I like and many other things.

My friend Cindy and I had a Jewelry and Bead open house and had a lot of fun! We are having another open house before Christmas. I'll let you know the details when we figure it out! Have a great evening!

Today's a much better day:)...........

If you read my last few blogs, you'll know that I had a rough night Thursday night because I sat on two large strawberry shakes from Steak N Shake. But that's all past us now. I really did enjoy my sons musical that evening BEFORE the strawberry shake incident. It was based on a "Music Machine" and they sang lots of groovy songs based on peace, love, patience, all that cool stuff. It was kind of funky too, like the 60's and 70's kind of groove and they even danced around a bit. It was very cute! Cristian is in fourth grade. He is eating lucky charms. Soon after he is done eating he will get on his computer and space out for a while on a game. That is his favorite thing to do and it is like pulling teeth getting him off the computer. Lately, I've had to give him limits on that computer or else he would be on there 24 hours a day. He is currently doing this reading thing for school, where you read a certain amount every day. At the end, he will get to go to a movie with his school friends. So, he will be doing some reading today.
Today's a MUCH better day. I woke up and read a bit in the current book I'm reading "The Eye of the Needle" by Ken Follett. Really, really good reading. Now I'm up drinking Java and watching "Flavor of Love", although I don't usually watch it. I'm flicking through the channels wishing a new episode of "The Hills" was on. I love reality TV. I really like "Big Brother". I love that show! So useless and meaningless. It's great entertainment after a day at the treatment center where I work. Just some clean, mindless entertainment for when I don't want to think anymore. I think I would do good on that show. Maybe I'll go to a casting for Big Brother, lol......
I really want to be productive today, though, and get some cleaning done, some jewelry making done (have recently purchased a TON of beautiful new beads and am itching to make some jewelry, and maybe take a nice walk. My DH (darling husband) Chris has been begging me to take a walk for the past few weeks, but I have been so lazy. I really do need a brand new pair of tennies for walking. But in the meantime, I suppose I could take a stroll around the block............

That kid of mine...

is LUCKY that I care about whether or not he has expensive therapy bills when he gets older! That is why he is still alive this evening...

I'm looking forward to cleaning the shake out of the car tomorrow...

OH...one more thing...maybe two

Keep in mind that I NEVER indulge in a strawberry shake from Steak N Shake! And I am on my period and have cramps that have me bending over...
