Week in Review: March 11-17

Last week I...

...finished the last of our family trip to Bridgeport with a final run to Taco's Mexico, swimming in the hotel pool, relaxing in the hotel room, breakfast in bed & chilling to the max. After visiting the last little town we called "home" for the last few years, I found I miss 3 things the most: train graffiti, having everyone know you when you walk into a place of business, & the landscape/scenery/wildlife/cows.

...hosted the 2nd Knitty Night. It is so relaxing to sit & chat & knit. I love these once a month evenings.

...ate pumpkin pie.

...made Play-Doh desserts & sweets with Pazely.

...was as equally obsessed with Vine as I was the week before. Please follow me on Vine: Nikki Mans. I try to post at least one video a day. And they're only 6-second videos, so it won't take much of your time to watch & like & follow & stuff. I just gained my 100th follower too! Woohoo! Now, if I can only get to 10,000...

(If you haven't already, download the Vine iPhone app! Not available for android as of yet. Sadness, I know.)

...GOT ANOTHER TATTOO!! Actually, I got two. The tats were an early {very early-ish} birthday prezzie from the Mr. They're both paper airplanes. One on the back of my arm, the other on my forearm. It has been exactly a year since I got my first one. It's about time. I'm gonna have a full sleeve someday. But tattoos hurt like the dickens!!! One tiny doodle at a time. One painful tiny doodle at a time.

...gained two temporary pets in the form of button quail. We're bird sitting for some friends for several days. And, oh man! Those buggers are noisy in the morning with their loud crowing & shrieking!

...had a heckuva time getting used to Daylight Savings Time. I'm still struggling. Curse you, clocks, with all your changes! 

*Wags fist at the nearest time-keeper*

...watched as the girls practiced boxing with daddy. So cute to watch their tiny fists & little scowls.

...made plans for Susan to come visit from Bridgeport. She'll be here Saturday! WOOHOO!!!!! We are planning to attempt Round 2 of making a paper pinhole camera. The first one we assembled was too small. Gah! We're experts now though, so it should be smooth sailing. I'm totally stoked!
