families



a suggestion for "things that are awesome" was families.
And the time to talk about the awesomeness of families is right after the holidays.
Not all families are awesome, but sometimes they are.
Mine isn't too shabby.
I went over to my mom's new place to check it out and to also pick up some of my old stuff. Mostly books, but some other great gems here and there.
(I'll take more pictures of them and post them in the near future.)

Family
Its awesome to see my mom, whom I haven't seen in a while.
Its awesome to find a picture I drew of a castle that I won 1st prize for in the 6th grade.
Its not awesome to be shown and shown to others, the awful/awkward pictures of me when I was younger.

who are you?



So I'll be busy this week with holiday-ish stuff.
But I wanted to put out another "Things that are Awesome" for everyone to think about while I'm away. And when I say everyone, I mean the 2 people (counting myself) who are reading this. At least I think there is at least 1 other person reading this.

Anyway.... I just wanted to put out there that another Thing that is awesome, is you.
And who better than Abe Lincoln himself to reiterate that.


abe said so

Thanks Abe. You are the best! oops. I mean... AWESOME! Just like the one reader! Thanks reader!

the 'stache

This is the first installment of...



I couldn't go and make a Things that are Awesome list without having my first list be about the 'stache.
Now you may be thinking, "PFFT! You already blogged about facial hair loser!" But PFFT on you! I'll have different people on my list.
Now who's the loser?! Not I, LOSER!
Here are MORE examples of famous people who hold the power of the 'stache:

Gandhi


Ned Flanders (diddly)


The Village People (ignore the Native American)


Mario Mario (Yes, Mario's last name IS Mario)


Alex Trebek


Groucho Marx


The Swedish Chef



Here is Mario Mario showing us the different kinds of mustaches there are.


If you don't enjoy the fun/awesome-ness of the mustache, then clearly you are missing out.
For those of you with mustaches that have been looking for a good mustache institution, look no further.

You're welcome.

what?

so wait a second.
Did I fall asleep for a couple of weeks?
How is it only 10 more days until christmas?
What happened?
The weirder part of all of this... other than 1 gift I need to get and 2 gifts I'm getting in the mail. I'm DONE with christmas shopping. I'm pretty amazed with myself. Usually I'm still running around trying to get gifts.
Not this time.

However, I have been busy.
Orders have been coming in quickly and cuddle time with my dog has been a high priority due to the cold weather.


ok.
So I just decided that I have neglected my blog.
So I am going to start posting things that I think are awesome.
Whether it be other items from etsy, words that I enjoy saying and/or hearing, TV shows, etc, I'm going to start.

Today, it will be cuddling with pets.
It is pretty awesome when they do it.
Did you not see the smile on my face?
Well, look again.
