pretty pretty princess? SOLD!!
| so, i sold my first ever skein of handspun and dyed on etsy for crafters united!! i wish i had a dollar to frame!! what a nice way to wake up, you know? i am going to spend the day spinning and dyeing, and plan to put some more up... so yesterday, beyond having the headache still, i got spraypaint and painted some baskets and my spinning chair and a kitchen chair thing that was all rusty and they look awesome. i will take photos, they are outside. awesome! i have my meeting with the boutique to-morrow to get paid and find out what new stuff they want, if any, so i plan to knit as much stuff as possible. i have used just about all of the 400 bucks of yarn they bought, and plan to pitch spinning my own yarn for the stuff i make for them so i can get ALL the money, cause i am GREEEEDY! i talked to my mom yesterday, and she has nothing but excuses about everything, and is soooo stressed out about moving. i mentioned that i have moved approximately 15-20 times since i was in college, and my family didn't help my any of those times, and she expects jake and i to move them. she tells me that it will be much harder on her. that they are so broke, they don't know how they will manage, oh yeah, readers, my dad, he is a doctor. anyway, after constantly saying how poor we are, she then said that we have no bills(we don't? we must have a drug problem? gambling?) and THEY are more broke than us, even though they make 7x more than us. my heart is breaking for you mom! i suggested that she cut back on the shopping, she has no budget, and i have a feeling that she has no clue what she spends. none. and she was pissed. everything i said, she had an answer for. not my problem. just like i am not her problem. she hates my gran and she is my gran. she has an excuse for everything. a justification for everything. that is fine, but i am not in a position to be manipulated. she wants us to drive their car to iowa, instead of having the movers do it, and fly us back, and jake will have to take time off, plus, with gas and tolls, it has gotta be costing a lotta dough. not to mention wasting our time. i know we seem like pleebs, but we do have stuff to do, which doesn't involve driving her lexus (the poor woman's car, right?) to iowa. i am done ranting. done. not my problem. does that sound cold? can i remind you that they didn't come to my wedding cause it was inconvenient, even though they knew 3 or 4 months in advance? ok, i am gonna go do stuff...art stuff! yarn stuff! thanks for listening. smoooooooch! n. |

Parents are maddening. My dad is still not talking to me b/c of the whole move to Costa Rica thing. Did I mention he believed it was my job to live near him and care for him? As if my husband and I were to plan our lives around him. Good grief. Stand your ground!!!!
You know, your momma should chill.
