Pretty Good Day Today

Today was actually pretty good, the husband got his beta key for DC Universe Online. Oh he almost peed his pants it was pretty funny. I had to run out to the store because it snowed and was icy for a couple days and we needed a few things. No I have the most adorable boots, they have a cute zipper that goes round the top and they scrunch and they're black and they have high spike-ish heels. Non snow and ice appropriate. So while I'm picking my way across the parking lot the husband tells me to get some new boots with no heels. Now I'm really not a shoe person but  I think I could come to fall in love with boots. They finally make them for us ladies with oddly muscular calves. I'm overweight right now but even when I was underweight those suckers never shrank. Here they are I got both colors cuz...you know he didn't say A pair of boots and they were BOGO.

They are super comfy almost like slippers plus real leather so they smell divine. Anyway for any ladies with wide calves go to Avenue or Payless Shoes I know for a fact they have boots that will fit you.

Now on to My Little Posies. I've been working on a couple new flower designs and here they are. They're not 100% perfect but I'm in love.

Christmas Shopping

Someone stop me, I am way overboard for Christmas already. It's just too fun to pick the perfect gifts for people, to wrap them nicely, fill stockings and watch how excited people are when I give them the gift I've chosen for them. It's not fake excitement either, my mom is totally honest with me and she always tells me what people say about the gifts I get them. I do stockings for kids and adults alike, lots of fun stuff!
This year it looks like God willing my entire family will be getting together for the first time in about 5 years. My sister is an officer in the Salvation Army and is stationed in Arizona. She never can get away as well you know Christmas is a big time deal for the Salvation Army. My older little brother is in the Air Force we usually don't get to see him either. My little little brother we do get to see far more often but we're excited to see him too. PLUS everyone is going to be bringing a significant other. I haven't met my sister's boyfriend (they are serious) and I've only briefly met my brother's girlfriend (the one in the AF). So what the hell am I supposed to do? Do I get them small gifts? I mean we're going to be doing the whole gift thing so how awkward if no one gets them anything right? Boys are always hard to shop for but a guy I don't know? I mean if all else fails I can always get my dad or brothers a couple of pairs of goofy pajama pants but I can't give PJs to a guy I don't know that's just weird. Plus I don't know how girly my brother's girlfriend is. I know my littlest brother's girlfriend loves pink and girly just as much as me so she's easy, but the new girl? No clue. My mom doesn't really know her either. Blah. Advice? Pointers? ANYONE?
