Cleaning out the house...

...is what we're doing here at the Groeteke household. We're trying to merge like 5 different houses into my little bitty starter house so Matt and I are hard core going through boxes and getting rid of stuff then going through the same boxes and getting rid of MORE stuff!

So I found this kit that has literally been sitting in my basement for about...3 years?!?!

Matt was like we're throwing it out and I begged him no so on the nice Friday afternoon that is was, we sat in the backyard and made this stepping stone in about 20 minutes. It's supposed to dry in the sun but, of course, there's no sun today, but it still looks good.


Okay, so for those of you that haven't read the Twilight series (which I think most of you have but I believe their are some friends of mine that don't comment on the blog...) do not read any further!!! I'm reading New Moon now which let me tell you page 60 was a rough time for me...I think I'm almost as depressed as Bella! But this morning, I just got to the part where she's run into Laurent...what a little traitor! He acts all nice, kind and proper in the first book but get the vampires away and well...anyways! So as I'm in the middle of reading the first exciting part of this book (aside from her birthday party), I look at the clock and realize...crappers! I gotta get to work! I can't wait to start reading again but, honestly, I'm going to be upset when I finish all of them so after I sped through Twilight, I'm trying to take my time and space out the last three books. OH! Two more Twilight related thing...so I was doing an interview at work and I looked at the application and I said, "OH...Jacob...like Jacob Black!" Then the other night at my PT job, this lady was telling me about how she was allergic to this lotion and when she puts it on, it makes her skin burn...what was the first thing that popped into my mind? That's what it feels like when you become a vampire! Honestly, these books ARE really taking over my life! Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Love your stepping stone! Honestly I was almost relieved when I finished the Twilight Series because it kind of took over my life too.

The stone looks great!! Just wait until you start having Twilight related dreams. It's crazy. I kinda laughed when other people said they were having dreams. Good idea to spread the books out. I just read right through them. I have no self control! Have a great weekend!!

Hey! The dealio with the Ebay coupons is this: I look at the Walgreen's ad. I see which items I actually NEED. (They have great deals on other items, but I don't need those.) I then go to Ebay, type in what I am looking for (Aquafresh toothpaste coupons), and then just purchase the grouping that I want. It is key to do this as early as possible so they arrive in time. If you have any other questions just holler at me!!
