Christmas Eve

It's Dec. 24, 2010. My favorite time of the year. I have today off from work and I am enjoying my relaxing time with Jeremiah's mom and my dog. Jeremiah was supposed to have today off but got called into work :( oh well. He get's off in 2.5 hours so I'll get to see him today.

With the year almost being over I've realized some things:

1. A year of being with someone really isn't that long.
2. NEVER GIVE UP.

As I have mentioned in a video, I suffer from major depression. Well, I think it's seasonal, but who knows? Without going into details, I am very thankful to still have life. It is amazing. Just sayin...


xoxo,
Bre

GOD BLESS!

Mama

I just wanted to mention how much I love my mom. She is the best lady I've ever known. Sometimes I wish I hadn't moved out but I honestly think that if I hadn't that I wouldn't, I guess, 'love' her as much as I do now.

Mommy. I love you and I can't wait to see you Saturday!


*my twin, mommy, and me on graduation day!*

Good day for me :]

Today has been a great day. Well, actually it's been good since I got home from work which was two hours ago; I've had a great two hours! ;) I came home and finished season two of Friends and painted my nails this beautiful color. It's by Sally Hansen; Complete Salon Manicure collection. It's called Gray by Gray. It's gorgeous. In the bottle it looks like a muted blue grey but in person it's wayy prettier.

The color comes out the same but it's a lot more attention getting than the other blue's I've had. I love it! Also, it has the amazing brush that formes to fit finger nails. Yeah. Amazing!

This picture shows the color as being a LOT more grey than it really is. But then again it is 9:00PM and I don't have access to natural lighting after 5PM thanks to day light savings. :/



This is the best I could get :)

One other thing that made me have a great past 2 hours was what I got in the mail. Any guesses?


Aw yeeeeah!

I'm gonna be better than Mrs. Weasley herself pretty soon :] oooh haha just kidding. That's not possible.

Another Knitting Post

I'm embarrassed to say that I haven't had much of anything to talk about. Honestly. I've been working and knitting. That's it. Literally. Oh and watching Friends :]. I went to Wal-Mart one day and bought knitting needles for about $2 and went to youtube and got to work. Let me tell you, it was not easy for me to grasp the consept of 'casting on'. Good lord that had me frustrated. But now I know the Knit Stitch and how to Pearl! I feel so accomplished. For inspiration, I checked out some knitting blogs and got my heart stolen by this book:



Having just seen Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1, I was in need of a HP fix and I found it. The website I found it on said that it was origianlly $14.99 not including shipping. Well, good thing I have my trusty friend Amazon.com. I found a 'Like New' condition of this beauty for $4.95 + $3.99 shipping. So my total was around $8.00 :) YEYY!

MRS WEASLY SWEATERS HERE I COME! :)
