yesterday, my parents gave me one of the most awesome & hilarious BuNnY MoNsTeRz gifts i have ever received...
they just got back from their bora bora trip this past weekend...and unbeknownst to me, they had taken dad's BuNnY MoNsTeR (whom he named Charky) to bora bora with them. well, charky went everywhere...on boats, out to eat, and apparently had an amazing adventure...
check out these pix that my mom took... (click on any of them to view it on my flickr)
have a wonderful thursday...
p.s. all the glue is now off my incision... and it's healing nicely...i might even drive as soon as this weekend! yay me!
...my parents 40th anniversary! they're in Bora Bora... so they won't see this until they return. (what they'll also see is a whole lot more snow than when they left...)
HAPPY 40th ANNIVERSARY M&D!!!
and to anyone else that stops by... have a fabulous day!!!
i took this yesterday & matt decided to sneak up behind me... (i took several, but this one made me laugh) it's mainly just to show everyone that i do still have my head attached.
(all the bright purple is the marker from the incision line, stuck under the glue) and after my checkup and xray on feb 11th... i should actually be able to sew again...yay!!!
p.s. i am hoping one day they'll make medicinal glitter glue... it would have been so much better....and sparkly!

hey all... just quick from my phone since I know some of you only check in here. Came home on my bday 1/12... being well taken care of by matt & munki...
so, tomorrow... (monday, the 11th) i check into the hospital at 6am... my neck surgery is scheduled for 7:20 am. i know i will be there at least overnight, they say this surgery is a general stay of 1-4 days. but i hope to come home the next day (my birthday) i keep telling myself this IS a birthday present in disguise...
who knew that working together at Borders, in Oxnard, CA would end up with us being married on january 9th , 2004? not me... Happy Anniversary, Matthew...I LOVE you!!!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ and, for those of you that don't know... we are in the midst of our annibirthday week... matt's bday 1/5...anniversary 1/9...my bday 1/12... but... on monday 1/11...i will be in the hospital having neck surgery... so, most likely, my bday will be spent in the hospital... (though i may be able to come home that day, depending) so, whilst you don't have to write them here... please send some good thoughts, vibes, and/or prayers my way... i sure would appreciate it... thank you...xox
so... the other day on twitter...(january 3rd, to be exact) everyeskimo posted about the latest addition to her etsy shop...
of course, me (being me) got all needy and wanted it immediately. (it was a bunny rabbit...the one thing i cannot resist) i posted a tweet, something to the effect of, if anyone wants to buy me a birthday gift...please buy me this...with a link to a rabbit named jack. i was SO in love with him... i faved him on etsy and was almost tempted to reserve him for myself... well, naught but 2 hours later (possibly less) i went back to try and reserve him...and he had been sold. my only hope was that he went to a good home.
then, today, matt checks the mailbox and says i have a package. i'm all, from who? where? and i saw the cute little bunny tape across the top of the box... i touched my name on the front (i LOVE getting packages) and i slowly cut the tape on the sides... i opened the box and inside was some golden tissue paper, wrapped to perfection. i slowly unwrapped it...and inside was jack! i squealed and then started crying. (i'm such a big baby sometimes) and there were so many other little things to enjoy... little pig straight pins, (thanks, regina!) a photo of uncle elmer (that i love) this package was sent with so much tender loving care, i loved every little bit about it.
so, mystery birthday gift sender...whomever you may be... i love this bunny so dearly, and thank you so very much for making my day!!!
and regina, thank you for the kind email after i blabbered on about receiving such an amazing surprise. (sort of like i am blabbering now) but it was amazing...and perfectly timed... and he will be so loved and cherished...
and if you made it this far in reading... do yourself a favor...go buy something from everyeskimo...
the love of my life... my daily inspiration... the man my heart still flutters for... the man who makes me laugh... the man who still gives me butterflies... the man who puts up with me...☺ the man i love with every fiber of my being. thank you for being exactly where you were at exactly the perfect moment... thank you for finding me... thank you for saving me... thank you for loving me... & happy birthday...i love you...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
as far as BuNnY MoNsTeRz newz... i hope to maybe get a few new things in the shop in the next few weeks...but it all depends on SO many things right now.
have a wonderful day... if you know my hubby...tell him happy birthday... if you don't, you can disregard the majority of this blog post... here i go again crossing the business/personal line? maybe? anywho...
like i said, have a wonderful day...if you're in new england or anywhere that's getting these cold temps...stay warm... and for those of you on the west coast...(my friends in CA) enjoy your 70 degree weather...
xox
p.s. this (matthew's bday) begins annibirthday week! our anniversary is the 9th and my bday is the 12th and it all fits happily into one perfect little week...
so...do you say two thousand ten... or twenty ten?
anywho... today is january 4th, 2010 and that means that our sweet little pug, Olive, turns 3 today...
Happy Birthday Olive!!!
we started off the year with loads of snow...yay! in a couple of days we managed to get somewhere between 15 & 18 inches... it was an amazing marshmallow world. and there was an awesome snowman built on our deck...
then it warmed up a little bit... and throughout the afternoon and evening, the snowman started to lean... and lean farther... then, he lost an eye... then, his little carrot nose...
(taken late last night, hence funky colors)
and at some point overnight... mr. snowman met his inevitable death.
and whilst last year there was hysterical crying by munki, over the loss of her snowman... this morning, she says, all happily...
"that's okay...i'll have lots of chances to build a lot of snowmen this year..."
ah yes, what a difference a year makes.
have a wonderful monday, i think most vacations are over... and most people are back to work...so have a great day and make the most of whatever it is that you are doing... and smile...always smile.
p.s. in case you didn't know... The Hillywood Show JUST posted their New Moon parody...
