I love everything about that second photo. I totally want to rock that look. A bit overkill just to go to the post office in Seattle though, heh heh.

A peek of what's to come.
I have been hard at work, for some time now, getting my site ready to launch. I expect to launch creativecoquette.com early 2010. If all goes well, January 2010 specifically.I was asked to donate a piece to my niece's school auction, which will be held this February. I said of course and then began to fret. No pressure. It's just the first time my designs will be 'out there'. The first time my Creative Coquette line, still fun but definitely...

My new favorite Alice.
New items are slowly being listed in the Wonderland Dreams shop. There's more to come but here is my latest favorite:Comes on a rich black velvet cord with black diamond Swarovski crystals.I didn't get a chance to show off my previous favorite as it sold almost immediately, love when that happens :)This next one isn't listed yet. I must have been very tired when I attempted to photograph it as this is the only decent photo. I'll have...

Seriously, I think the Universe is sending me a message.
Yesterday, I survive the hydroplane dance the Mini did.Today, on the way to pick up Y tonight, I just missed getting rear-ended by a shuttle bus only because we were all stopped in traffic and just as I hit the gas to move forward with traffic I heard a loud crunch as the shuttle bus behind me was rear-ended and lurched forward just missing me as I pulled away! Just to see in my rear view mirror the shuttle bus lurch forward again as I...

Wednesday Cravings: It's been a rough morning, yo.
I am OK.The car is OK.I am safe at home.Long story short: I was on the freeway going back to Seattle when the car hydroplaned in the fast lane. Lots of swerving, dodging cars and median walls to spin and end up facing sideways instead of forward in traffic. Miracles happen. No cars hit anything and we all lived.I have now calmed downed, counted my blessings and my appetite has returned.I'm going to Five Guys for lunch, dang it all to...

Trying to get all of Christmas in order, Y's Bday surprises and stocking up the house in case we get snowed in again this year.

Back from beautiful NC & Y is a sneak!
We are just back from an extended Thanksgiving holiday with Y's mom C in Winston Salem. I'll post more about that this weekend. Before we left it was my birthday. Seriously, these numbers are getting harder for me to comprehend as they indicate serious adulthood and everywhere I go I feel like one of the kids. It helps that people think I am 10-20 years younger than my actual age, depending on outfit and how giggly I am, thanks to...
