I want this shirt!


Mike and I saw this lady walking down the street in downtown Lawrence today. I thought it was very funny and appropriate of her wearing this shirt since it was "National Alpaca Weekend".

Blogstalking...Assignment 2-Purse Guts!


This is my purse...maybe a little "childish"? Hey, I like it! I like the "bowling-bag" kind of style it has and I also like Happy Bunny.



Contents of my purse:

  • Tons of receipts and pay stubs from work.
  • Two containers of breath mints...can never have enough of those!
  • One of my favorite perfumes "L" that my boyfriend Mike got me last year for my birthday.
  • About 60 cents in change.
  • Mary Kay lipstick and two Chapsticks.
  • Hello Kitty lotion that April gave me.
  • Two bobby pins.
  • Two paper clips.
  • One earring that I lost the other one and the back of.
  • BeautiControl compact.
  • A container of "Good Head" flavored lube that April gave me as a joke Christmas present about two years ago. It's a conversation starter...lol
  • My Hello Kitty checkbook.
  • Neosporin
  • Shout Wipes
  • My Weight Watchers Calculator...no i'm not going to WW right now, I should though!
  • Two prescriptions to my migraine meds...
  • An extra car key
  • Two "It's My Birthday" free drink passes from Denin & Diamonds that I won Wednesday night for my birthday.
  • A pink ribbon pin that I got for Breast Cancer Awareness Week this year.
  • Tylenol Sinus pills...my somewhat pre-prescription migraine helpers.
  • My eyeglass cleaner cloth...which i'm addicted to and would be lost without it!
  • My coin purse that contains my credit cards, gift cards and punch cards to various places.
  • Pens!

Blogstalking...Assignment 1-Who am I?

  • Amanda
  • Recently turned 31...Sept 26th
  • From Lenexa, KS
  • Enjoy knitting and learning new things...just finished another sock. Yes, I said "sock"...haven't gotten through a pair of socks yet. Wanting to start a new project but haven't quite figured out what yet?
  • Enjoy decorating cakes. In the past couple of months I took Wilton classes with my boss from work to learn "Cake Decorating". Finished Courses I-III and the Fondant/Gumpaste classes. Haven't went back for the final two classes because I'm waiting for my boss to find free time so we can go together.
  • A mom...to my doggy Libby Louise, even though she lives with her daddy.
  • A sister...to Nicole and Stephanie.
  • A daughter...to parents Tommy & Deborah. Dad lives in California, mom lives in Missouri.
  • A aunt...to the cutest niece Miakah LeAn who turns 2 on Oct 1st.
  • A girlfriend...to my totally understanding boyfriend Mike.
  • In Accounting. I do Accounts Receivables for a major truck dealership. I like my job some days...the days when people leave me the hell alone :)
  • A friend...at least I think so. I don't know what I would do without my friend "Sassy Smokey Chewy Pants" aka "April" :)
  • A 31 year old woman that loves Hello Kitty! Although, I don't think i'm as "obsessed" as some people I've seen!

31 tomorrow!

OK...so today is my last day of being 30. 30 wasn't a bad year. Had it's ups & downs... Hopefully more ups this next year! Had one birthday party this last Friday...had a good time. It was me, Mike, Steph and her friend Matt, April & Matt, Michelle, Dan & his fiance. We all had a good time and had an even better time watching Michelle :) Tomorrow night i'm having dinner with Mike, mom, Steph and Baby Fuzz! Then we are off to D&D's to celebrate and take advantage of the lovely 25 cent drinks for Ladies Night!

Hello Kitty Tats...

OK...I'm still on a mission to find my next tattoo. Still haven't found the "right" one yet...but this one is ok...

The free yarn sock is done!


Yes, as of about 11pm last night I got the sock done from the yarn that April gave me. Finally! I think I get tired of looking at the same yarn and knit and knit till the project is finally done so I don't have to look at that yarn. So, I probably should continue on and make the other sock, but I'm thinking....no. I think i'm going to look into making something else and go back to the other sock later.

2 days till my birthday!

About time I start a blog...I guess?

Well it seems to be the "in" thing... As soon as I can figure out my new digital camera I can start adding pics and showing the things I have knitted and can share with people.
