Monday Lowdown

Happy Monday friends! As you can tell, I’m trying the “fake it till I make it” theory to pep up my Monday. I’m not sure it’s working. Today is all about the lowdown in life, or that part of the week where I get everything off my chest.

There was some sort of ballgame on television last night. I was too busy watching the commercials and tweeting about them for the #adbowl #brandbowl to notice. Well, except the last part when they forgot they were professional football players and decided to become professional hockey players. Yes, the Seattle Seahawks Legion of Boom turned into the Philadelphia Flyers Legion of Doom.

Let’s just say “Thanks for setting such a good example for kids everywhere.” Of course, the NFL is going to levy HUGE fines to all of the players involved in the scuffle. It is my personal opinion they should donate the fines to a domestic violence organization seeing as how the league has a huge problem in that area.

Time to cause whiplash from the spin and talk about the house. We’ve started moving stuff in and it doesn’t matter how much you’ve already gotten rid of, you’re going to get rid of more while in the middle of this process. My entire body aches, mainly below the knees. I have banged enough boxes against my lower legs to cause massive bruises. The movers are coming on the 12th, but in order to maintain sanity and not live amongst the boxes (or a massive moving bill) we’re taking as many trips in our cars as possible now. (We are moving 5 miles away.)

To finish things off, Handmade NC is growing. We’ve had such a great demand for coverage, Ilina and I will be launching a website for this project in the coming weeks. It’s a something that is definitely close to our hearts and a special project we will be pouring serious love into.
