Thumbs

Okay, so if you know me well enough, you know that my thumbs are bit a weird...short and stubby. Also if you know my thumbs, you'd know that I have a terrible time finding gloves that actually fit my thumbs correctly. Usually, I have about a 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch remaining in the end of each thumb hole of every pair of gloves I own. Today must have been my lucky day. I bought a pair of gardening gloves, and when I got home, I tried them on. Guess what?!?! Thumbs fit!! Woohoo! No extra room at the end! I was super excited. :)

Sad face :(

I have to go back to work tomorrow :( ...10 days just wasn't long enough

Jason has taught me well

Laurin and I went to Peoria today to pick up a few things, and luckily we both had coupons that we obviously had to put to good use. So we went in to Lowe's because I wanted one more ceiling fan to replace the gold one in the kitchen. Laurin had a $10 off of $50 coupon, and she said I could have it. Unfortunately the fan was only $49.97. I knew that the silly people at the registers wouldn't give it to us because we've tried it before. Laurin suggested that we look for a pack of gum or something like that. Well, I didn't want to have to spend 2 or 3 bucks in order to get $10 off because that just seemes like a waste. I was like surely they sell individual nuts, bolts, or screws around here...and what do you know...they do! We found something for 33 cents, but I knew we could do better. I then spotted some nuts for like 6 cents, but that was the contractor price, so we kept looking. Ends up that lock washers are only 16 cents a piece (in case you need to know)...so I bought a single lock washer and spent over $50 (barely) and was able to use the coupon. Hooray! Jason was so proud. :)

It's egg-cellent!

Since we won't be around for Easter weekend, we decided to get together with Laurin and Lucas last night to color some Easter eggs. Fun times!

The one on the left is Jason's handiwork...can you tell what it's supposed to be??
