I had a DIY project blow up on me yesterday. Instead of turning it into kindling, I made and took pics of a recipe. I'm trying to salvage it but trust me, I'll blog about what some would call a pinterest fail but it's my own idea so it's my own fail. Beh.
But enough about my craptastic project gone awry, let's get to...

Read This Woman's Perfect Response After Being Fat-Shamed at the Gym (Here's what pisses me off the most. People say something because you're fat and then you try to change that by going to the gym and they say something because you're fat but obviously trying to do something about it. How about minding your own damn treadmill)

We're decorating for Christmas this weekend. I know, some may think it's jumping the gun but there is far too much going on every weekend after for me to do it with any kind of genuine holiday cheer.
What are you guys getting into this weekend?

You know it's not a fail if you recognize your mistake and fix it in time, which it appears you're doing, so you're good to go! I'm sure it will be great when done!
ReplyDeleteI think it's a perfect time to decorate. I fully believe doing it before Thanksgiving is the way to go because there's just not enough time once that weekend hits. I went to see my friend Judy this week and her tree is up in all it's glory in her living room. I loved looking at all the ornaments and it looked so festive and elegant. We went to a Chinese restaurant for lunch and it's the first time I'd heard Christmas music piped in a place this season.
ReplyDeleteWe are due to get quite a bit of snow, so I'm hunkering down. Now I won't have any excuses to not do laundry and clean the house (I totally bailed on it last weekend). When you're down to dress socks to wear, it's time to do some washin'. As I'm trying to run two households, it's my own home that has gotten the neglect. Mother Nature is telling me the jig is up and I need to put some clothes in this neat machine that spins a bunch of water and soap. You'd think I was sitting there with a washboard over some rocks the way I procrastinate about doing laundry. Two machines do all the work for me and yet I still battle it. I'm a weirdo.... Have a great time decorating!!!
I can't wait to hear about the DIY Fail...because seriously, it's always nice to know that I'm not the only person that totally screws up sometimes. HA!
