Runaway October

Hey! Thanks for stopping by. If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Aren’t these peachy? I could totally dig one of these nestled in the nice green garden with little rock pathways.

The 7 inch thick walls would make perfect sense in Arizona as they are highly energy efficient. They would make a great "upstairs" for an mostly underground home too.

The Pink Tentacle article states that they can be connected and covered walkways between rooms would be cute, yeah?

They can also be used a freestanding structures, such as a bar or toolshed.

At roughly $30,00 it seems like a reasonable consideration to me. They can even be made into ’shrooms and oh how I love cute little deathcaps.

Lo and behold folks, I CAN do it. I have completed a project in one day! Yes, you are hearing me correctly. I’m still fighting with the new (to me) old machine though. Oh well.

Maybe someday some of this pink stuff can stay in our house

Hopefully it’ll go in the mail in the next couple days.

Oops, that’s not a very square corner is it?

Drum Roll Please!

Yep. This means no more complaining about how I’m not married. We’ll be having a "reception" soon so that everyone can celebrate with us, since there were barely enough adults present to cover the required witnesses. I’m still fiddling around with these announcements but they’ll go in the mail soon!

Yay me! Now I have to learn to sign a new name.

I can’t even draw this on paper, let alone on a cupcake!

Feast!

July 24, 2008 | Filed in: Life, Pictures

Today is, as I am sure you are all aware, Saint Declan’s Day. If you would all kindly stop your feasting and merry-making to read my post, that would be great.

The ruins of St. Declan’s Church, seen over the flowers.

Anyone who’s ever met by blossoming two year old terror, Declan, knows that he is no saint. But he was unintentionnally named after one - Saint Declan of County Waterford. Although we had no intention of celebrating St Declan’s day before he was born, it’s not every day that you have a feast day named after you. On top of that, through coincidence, I happen to have a turkey defrosting in the refridgerator. So… TONIGHT WE DINE IN… sorry wrong movie.

Tonight we shall we feasting in Declan’s name. Yay!
