i don't know.

this post is one of those, "i need to blog but where do i start?" type deals. wow, i mean, where do i start? i didn't do much blogging last week because it was so busy, and i had something planned for friday and today, but i think my brain just got jumbled. i guess the biggest thing was my little car accident on friday. luckily it wasn't my fault, and luckily i was in my company car which didn't fare so well, and not my own, and luckily no one was injured aside from whiplash. so i've been complaining to chris like a little old lady, and my house is a mess because my back hurts and i don't feel like vacuuming. but what i did do was hunt for bottles! chris and i met up on friday before the accident and i found a few, then i had a delicious lunch with auntie amy (and the hummus was so good i'd sell chris for more). then on saturday pop and i went on the hunt for more bottles for me to crochet cover.

i'm so happy with the bottles i found! i have to admit though, my hoarder tendencies could take over if i let them and i could decide to just add more and more bottles to my collection, but i have to keep that beast under control. i also got two books (they're new, and they were only $2 each! hardbacks, people!) and this stereoview of a crystal garden. i love the soft colors, and of course i love crystals and all that natural stuff. there was a big basket with probably 200 stereoview cards of all different places and scenes. to be honest, i could have gone crazy with those, too, but i stopped at one!

oh, and chris and i also made mint oreo blizzards on saturday evening. i only like oreos for about 4 days a month if you catch my drift, and that blizzard was absolutely delicious. if chris hadn't eaten all of the loot, i'd make another one for dinner tonight!

i hope you guys had a good weekend! what did you do?

  3. I so happy you're okay. Accidents are scary! I wish I could eat blizzards, that sounds amazing! Maybe a "ricedream" blizzard is in order in this house...Get some rest and I hope you're back feels better. Oh, and also, i am the same way, I can't have just one of anything, I go crazy and hoard everything.

  6. oh no i hope you're okay!! so scary. i love the part about "4 days a month". i rarely eat fried food because I hate the feeling I get after eating it, but for 4 or 5 days every month all I want are a big thing of french fries or potato chips!

  7. My favourite Oreos are the ones that come out at Christmas: mint middle with white chocolate on the outside. I love those a little too much. Also, I can't wait to see what you make with those bottles AND I love the looks of that crystal garden photo. I like the mystical nature stuff, too!

  14. That is so scary about your accident...I hope you heal up fine. That can be so scary. I wrecked a truck in late 2006 and it was horrible. My head went through the driver side window..so it was a bad one. I am so thankful that you are okay...take care...and hope all the soreness goes away soon! Hearts, Janna Lynn

  15. beautiful collection -- and though they stand pretty on their own, your crochet skills will make them perfect :) i can't wait to see the finished project!

    i'm so sorry to hear about your fender bender and am so glad you are okay. i've had a shit week with car woes that made for a sucky weekend lol

    i did sneak in some starbucks cake pops and like the mint oreo blizzard did for you-- bliss!!! oh! and since i was stuck at home without a car, i might have had time to do a little birthday girl shopping... wonder who that could be? ;)

    xoxoxo to my girl fiance

  16. those bottles are really pretty! and sorry to hear about your accident :( glad it wasn't too serious but be careful with those back pains... the bengay heat wraps (both disposable and reusable) are really nice and work great. i used them all the time when i did kickboxing. epson salt bath with some mint oil (not too much tho!!) is really nice too.
