23 day of the dead skull

I really like this but it doesn't really go with anything or any particular room.  I will gift it to someone else!  I feel bad because this is actually pretty cool and a recent gift.

19-20-21-22 tanks and tops and a frame

 Well, these didn't photograph well but they are boring anyway.  black shirt thats too tight in the arms...tiny little tank tops that look dumb....more importantly is the frame below.  It was randomly gifted to Scott as a wedding gift.  It is clear glass and flowery.  It's pretty, and nice, just not our style.  Plus i still don't have any framed wedding photos.  It is too hard to decide what to frame and i don't want to be the crazy lady with 24 framed pics of herself.

17-18 Jammies and cushions

 Once upon a time i made sock monkeys as gifts and as a little money maker when i got laid off right before Thanksgiving.  It was a lot of work but made me some cash until the unemployment really kicked in.  Luckily i got another job after the new year.  anyway, for some reason, everyone automatically started buying me sock monkey shit.  one item was cute.  Then there was another and another and another...finally i told everyone, "I don't really care about them, i just made them for money".  Harsh, but it got the point across. so these jammies are now in the thrift store bin.

Below are 2 really gross cushions.  Really icky.  The whole couch is icky.  I hate it!  I can hide it under sheets and stuff but i may freak out soon if we dont get a new one.  Anyway, i threw these in the trash.  We now have a couch with only 2 back cushions.  Ridiculous.

14 15 16- slip and slide and 2 hoodies

 Ah, to be youthful again.  The last thing my body needs these days is to be flung onto the hard ground and some wet plastic.  No.Thank.You.  sorry hillery, but it went to a good home.

Also, my favorite black hoodie...it is time for us to part.  This thing is like 8 years old.  I should look through some photo albums to see when it first appeared but it isn't really worth it.  The red one is more of a junior cut.  I am not allowed to wear junior clothes anymore.  Oliva sets the laws in that regards.  Well, she WILL let me try them on so she can laugh at me, but that's it.

13-lil kim bra

One year in like 2003 i was Lil Kim.  I looked good.  It was right after she had her boob out at the VMAs.  Well, I used this bra and sewed a pastie to it.  I also had an amazing dress from the thrift store and a fur coat.  My necklace was mat board and gold spray paint.  It was awesome.  I also learned all the lyrics to her songs.  Well, not all, but enough.  anyway, this bra has seen better days and needs to be retired.  It never fit right anyway.


12- table from 2005?

I got this table at a yard sale.  I am really into tables.  I have no idea.  i also really like boxes and drawers.  and change.  Anyway, I got this for 10 bucks.  My intent was to refinish it and put a  lamp through it somehow.  Well, many many years later and it is in the same spot in the basement, rotting, being sad.  So it went to the curb and was picked up in no time!

11-crack cream

Good lord this must be like 10 years old.  I opened it and it is stinky.  Not rotten stinky, but nothing Iwant to rub on my skin. 

7-10 jacket and shirts

 Ah puffy jacket.  you were good to me but you are just too short.  I gave all of these items to a coworker to bring to the consignment store.  She may as well make 10 bucks, right? and man, i loved all these button downs.  But they have been with me for years and years and someone else can enjoy there.  they are a touch too tight and the gathered arm is a stupid invention.

5-6 my fave jeans and my fave shirt

 Its hard to let these 2 go.  The shirt was an anthropology score.  Their stuff is SPENSIVE but i found this on clearance and maybe had to fix a button or something.  The jeans were my fave for about 5 years.  I don't like jeans with holes so i am letting these go.  They are paper thin anyway so its just a matter of time before they become an embarrassing situation.  Scott saw them and thought they were bobo's and then bobo put them back and then scott looked at the tag. Scott laughed and saaid "bobo's been wearing fat girl clothes".  Then i happily pointed out that a) those were mine and b)THEY ARE NOT FAT GIRL CLOTHES!!!!!!.  loft is for hip biz casual women!

1-2-3-4 lets get it started! Dog clothes and Christmas outfit!

 Awwwww, Lanie's last outfit.  She had a wound on her side so she had to wear a shirt or something for a while.  This was her 80s new years eve outfit. The green is from my friend Jessica's dog Lulu.  Miyagi rocked his vest for quite a while! He's got his man body so it doesnt fit anymore.
 The cookie cutters were a Christmas stocking item (sorry Kathy).  I just dont have space and i never make cutout cookies.  EVER.  The sweater is HIDEOUS!  The worst is that people thought it was for real and not for a joke.  Yeah, all of a sudden i felt 50. And not funny.

Let's finish out 2013!

13 books.  AND an art print!  Yep, this rounds out the last year.  I threw all these into the goodwill box.  i had them listed on amazon but whatever, get them out.  I will start fresh now.  Next year i will just number my items so i can do them in clusters and not feel a month behind.
