OMG covering your own buttons is the coolest thing EVER how did I not know about this before? Seriously I've been a serious crafter for a good 14 years now and I never knew about this? I love picking the fabrics, deciding where on the fabric to center it...oh so fun.... I'll have to take pics of what I did tonight. I love them. Plus if you go ahead and get them when Joanns has the buy one get one free notions deal they're an awesome deal 8 buttons for 2.79 which is cheaper than you can get most buttons for and they're exactly what you want instead of having to settle for something half the time. Can you tell I love them? I know I'm a total dork lol.
My next post will include samples. I love them.

So I've Totally Slacked on This
Yeah I know. But hey it's been chaos in the extreme.
I'm up to 300 mg of Lamictal. I'm now forgetting things like, words, how to turn on my washing machine, how to fasten a diaper etc. The dr said this isn't a good sign SO tomorrow at our appointment we'll be discussing new medication options.
My hair has fallen out quite a bit. I finally cut it to about an inch short, slowly going from mid-back to shoulder length, to a choppy bob to just getting rid of the damn stuff. We were sick of pulling long hairs out of everything. I've got bald spots but I think when I quit the Lamictal those will grow back in the loss will stop and my hair will grow.
The youngest and I had a hospital stay each. Both infinantly complicated and ridiculous.
I've finally gotten motivated to start crafting. I think I'm getting pretty good at what I've decided to do and may even try to sell it. Maybe it will make me feel more useful.
My husband asked the other day what I've been thinking about and what's been going on with me...I realized that I really had nothing to say. I mean my days are filled with dealing with stuff for him, making meals, doing chores, taking care of the kids and maybe screwing around on Facebook for a while.
Oh the doctor decided to switch me from Ativan which wasn't working for crap and gave me Xanax....OMG it's the wonder drug. I'm on 1mg 2 times a day. My sister informed me that it's quite a high dosage. I didn't realize that lol.
I'll have to post up some pictures of my craftiness pretty soon. We'll see how they turn out.
My only disappointment is that I'm running out of fabric scraps.
