Stained Glass

I wish I could get back into stained glass. I made the below for a co-worker when she has her first child. I vowed at the time to never make another stained glass gift. I stressed myself out and it negatively influenced my creativity and product quality. I hope she liked it..... Then I realized I gave the person a white elephant - classic!

I'm not fond of the trunk :(

I have so many projects just gathering dust - it's horrible! A birthday gift (pannel), Xmas gift (fairy), two wall lamps (for my Mum). Umm, I was supposed to have the first two done in '08 and the latter done in '09. I am currently blaming my laziness on my pregnancy where I was sick 80% of the time and of course I'd never handle all those chemicals and lead while preggo. Though, my husband wanted to step in and finish, but he never did. I live in the land of lame.

I thought I was going to go to bed. Apparently not.

I lost my post....

I just typed up a witty post about my back yard and I lost it. I clicked on a link within my post on the preview pant and I thought it would open in a new window.... alas it didn't. *sniffle*

I'm too lazy to re-type or remember.

SIGH.

Failing all around!

Okay this is ridiculous. I attempt to start a blog and fail after my first post.

Oh well. Well the one good thing is I've lost 10 lbs. I started Nutrisystem (yeah yeah, I know) in May and I've done alright, but lately I've fallen of the ball. I would have been down 5 more lbs if I had not done.

The food came by UPS and it was in a large, surprisingly light, box. I guess that just shows I eat too much; then I forgot that I had to go out shopping for greens and dairy. DOH. Silly me. Still must be the baby brains. From reading the contents, I thought I'd enjoy lunch the most. Wrong. Lunch was gross. I was addicted to the mashed potatoes, but anything to do with pasta in little microwavable bowls was disgusting. For example, Cheese Tortellini. The sauce was disturbing. Breakfasts have been fun and I'm addicted to the burgers for dinner.

I wish I started this system before I was preggo!!!

I don't plan on failing this expensive venture though. I'm not one for following 'diet plans'. I believe in exercising and eating healthy. E.g Cdn Health Guide type of thing. But sometimes trying something can be fun. As fun one can have limiting their food intake.

Every time I try to watch what I eat, without a main stream system, I get overwhelmed. I used to be so physically active and ate a lot of veggies and fruit, not a lot of bad carbs. Now that way of life comes with great difficulty. I think it's because I'm married. Yes, blame everything on the husband.

Oh my goodness. It's almost 1:30 am and I have to be up at 6.

RooBean tries to become. . .

Interesting... I am trying to become interesting as I take care of my first child while on maternity leave. In the past I've started up blogs and never continued them past a post or two and hopefully I won't repeat history. I think this time I won't dedicate myself to one topic, but just go on about things I am trying... whether it be new or to get in touch with my younger self. Now the quality (grammar, topic, etc) and length will all decide on how well my daughter sleeps or plays, lol. Currently she is napping and I'm sure that will end soon. The purpose of this blog is more for me, but it would be cool if someone happened to read this and comment.

Hmmm... now how to become more interesting?
