Pandamonium Blog - Ramblings of a Crazy MaMa!

Howdy and Hello! I'm just sitting here on my lunch break watching some MTV and eating popcorn. I love working at home because I can actually relax on my breaks! When your in the workplace on a break you still at work. This last weekend was Addison's Hello Kitty pool party at the YMCA. It was so much fun and the kids had an awesome time, this coming weekend is Adrianna's Shrek party. I can't believe my babies (nieces) are getting soo old. It makes me sad and wish that they would stay tiny forever. I love being an Auntie soo much they always make me feel like a million bucks and tell me I'm their best friend. Nothing beats that! Also this weekend my mom, our friend Juanita, and I are making our way to Denver to go see Adele live in concert! I'm over the moon :) I'm pretty sure it's gonna be amazing. Her voice is just magical. Well I hope you have a great long weekend, my next post is bound to have a tons of fun pictures from the HK party, Shrek party,...

OMGsh! It's almost summer and I can't wait! I'm not usually one for the heat but I've been so cold lately it's sounding pretty good. The two places where I "live" both have swimming pools so you can bet I'm gonna have a great tan this year. Which also means I need to hit the gym like I should be there right now doing something to tone up! I have lost an amazing amount of weight since the begining of the year and I feel awesome, Nearly 30lbs!!! I can't believe it happened and pretty much by just not eating fast food and being careful with the sweet stuff. Being a diabetic it's hard figuring out what to eat and what not to eat and how to balance. I was diagnosed last April and I still have my struggles with it but I just try and take it one day at a time. In my crafty world I have been crocheting as usual making pretty flowers headbands and clips in time for summer and some flowery hats! Here are some pretty amazing photos that make me yearn...

Hello There! It's been a ghost town around here on the blog. Trying to keep up with everything is so hard. I'm gonna try to schedule a weekly time to at least blog twice a week. I miss writing. Soo here is a little run down of what's been happening and going on here in my little world. I finally got to see Arcade Fire!!! It's was amazing and more. I had so much fun. Jeremiah and I met up with some of our friends Cameron and Liam. We went and had hot wings before and after the show, ha ha! It was one of the only places open in the area so and we weren't ready to turn in yet so that's how that happened. At the show I danced the entire time. I got the most comfy and soft zip-up hoodie, I love it. Here are few projects I finished lately. I made them for a trade with another crafter. She sews and I got two amazing bags in trade for the items in the photos below. Happy Mother's Day weekend! xoxo. Ren

So I woke up today around 12:30pm! What a lazy butt, I know. Jer and I went to a show last night in Denver and didn't get home until around 2 am. I am so glad I took today off work in advance because I knew I was going to be dead tired. I was kinda right. I feel like I'm on a "fun" hangover, completely drained and parched! I drink soooo much water all day long when I don't drink every fifteen minutes I can't handle it. I LOVE water and water bottles. You should just see the ever growing collection of them. This habit of collecting bottles always killed my mom and now the hoarding is slowly taking over the kitchen too! Once I decide to roll out of bed today I'm gonna clean and re-organize the kitchen cabinets. I'm short so I need to move things I always need to the lower shelves. So our little excursion yesterday was quite lovely. We took off to Denver about 2pm. Went to eat at Thai Basil one of my favorite places ever! The food is so yum and the prices...

Well almost everyday anyway, I have been crocheting mostly at work these days since I have been so busy most evenings I can't really fit it in. I have been super productive however! I was making little Easter chicks for about two weeks (pics later) and now I'm onto cotton spring hats. I love hats! I like to wear them and make them. Right now I'm using patterns from Speckled Frog's etsy shop along with some of my own little tweeks to the patterns. Her patterns are super easy to read and follow so check them out if you get a chance. Here are some photos of the hats I've made since last Thursday, they will be posted in my Etsy shop when I get a spare second to post them...Enjoy Happy Wednesday! Yay only one more day of work for me tomorrow is my Friday :) xoxo. Ren

This weekend was so much fun! Jeremiah and I took a little journey to Boulder, Colorado. We got tickets for "Broken Social Scene" on Saturday night. So we went up around noon on Saturday, checked in to our hotel, and headed for downtown. I love Boulder the scenery it so pretty and the shopping is awesome! We found the venue for the show and parked close by then just walked to the "Pearl Street Mall" which is an out door mall with tons and tons of cool little artsy shops and musicians playing up and down the street, magic acts, and there was a cowboy (I wish I got a picture) who was completly painted in bronzed paint and looked like a statue, it was pretty cool. I got some of the most awesome boots from the "croc store", bright yellow rain boots! We ate at a place called "Lazy Dog" it was tasty and the brownie sunday I had was so delicious. After dinner we head to the venue, got stamped and tickets taken, we decided to sit during the show s...

I just love rainboots these days! I wish I had a pair for each day of the week :) The patterns and designs are just so colorful and fun, how could you not like them!? Here are some of my favorites I spied here on the web... LOOK piggies like wellies too! :) These are the ones I want next! Here is a pair of mine I'm wearing at the pumpkin patch this last October. All photos minus the last one were all found on weheartit.com. I hope you all are having a good week! I'm looking forward to my weekend! I'll you more about that tomorrow. Love. Me.
