My newest crochet project!

I'm going to be attemtpting this afghan in blue and yellow for my cousin's son. I was going to do one similar to ones my Mama did for us all but I can't remember exactly what they looked like and my mother, altho she has found them, hasn't brought my sister's afghans over for me to check out so i can match up patterns. I'm pretty sure it's a pattern from her crochet book but I have to verify it by sight. I"m very very excited!

So you don't think it's all about crocheting lol

Let's fill you in on my life.

A week and a half ago was my bday. 33. I'm getting old. I ended up having to work that night. Okay i didn't "end up" having to work...i volunteered. It was the Livonia Elk's halloween party. Supposed to be a great time. Well, Kevin picked me up from home, we drove to the corner store to pick up smokes and pumpkin seeds, and as we were leaving the car died. The transmission went. We couldn't go in drive or reverse. We were stuck. So we pushed the car to a side street and I called Paul to let him know what was going on. He came and picked us up and took us there. I did the job and they reassured me someone would take us home so we wouldn't need to get a cab. Well...everyone that had offered got drunk and left before the show ended so we got stuck taking a $20 cab home anyway...plus spending $15 for drinks that night...I made a grand total of $15...which I'm sure we spent in smokes that night and the next lol.

So the next morning I wake up to someone pounding on the door. Being the mexican-american that I am, i sneak downstairs and peek thru the crack in the door to see if i can determine who it is without them seeing me. I can't so i go back upstairs without knowing who it was. Turns out it was a cop. They came back by a couple hours later to let us know that the veterinarian by where we parked our car wasn't happy and wanted our car towed, but he just stickered it and said if it wasn't moved by monday he'd tow it, then came over to our house to tell us! How awesome is that? If it was in Wyandotte you KNOW it would have been towed and we wouldn't have known until we went to pick it up!

So Kevin talked to his brother Joey about buying his Pontiac as a 2nd car (a primary car until we got the dodge fixed) and he agreed to take payments but he wouldn't bring it out until Sunday, so we rented a car for the weekend from Enterprise.

So that night i worked again. A Halloween party in BFE Belleville. They ranged from about 23-27 in age and their main concern was getting drunk that night. Eventually I just had them tell me what songs they wanted to sing and I looked them up and wrote them down for them. I doubt they could even read they drank so much. I wanted to get out of there @1am (which was what they booked us for) so we could maybe grab a last call @ the local watering hole, but they decided they wanted another hour. So after consulting with Paul (he left the decision up to me since I was breaking it down) I decided to go ahead and do it. I was only gonna get $15 more (i get $15/hour for private parties) but after they took up a collection of everyone there...plus the tip they gave me for the whole night...i wound up with over $100 for one hour of work!!!! Hopefully they'll have us back next year ;-)

Sunday Oct 30th was my bday party here @ the house. Nothing big just burgers & hotdogs and football. OH! And hurricanes. We ordered hurricane mix from Pay O' Briens in NOLA! It was awesome! The Lions lost (big surprise) but we had so much fun! We had a bonfire later on at night and Joel came to the party and I hadn't seen him in so long it was great! Kevin passed out after having too many hurricanes at around 9PM...he slept straight thru until almost 2PM the next day!

Kevin's brother Joey brought his Pontiac Sunday and Monday we went to the Dodge dealership to see if a recall had caused this trans problem. They said no. So kevin called some auto shops to make sure, then he finally made a deal with the financing company for them to finance it and tack it onto our payments (since we still owe a year) He threatened to not make payments otherwise. What were they gonna do? Take the car? Be my guest!

Nothing too exciting this past week until Friday. (oh and the dentist on thursday, but you know all about that) Paul is having me work 3 weeks @ o'tee's in Romulus and my first night was last friday. My mom took me to dinner @ some new itelian place in Wyane called "johnny Carino's" it was really good! After she took me to work where Paul showed me how to set up and everything. It was going great until someone said something to my cousin that Joe didn't like then words were spoken and finally Joe was banned from the bar. I must have apologized a gazillion times for him. I was so pissed. I'll explain tomorrow what actually happened. Luckily they were cool and let me still work there. Saturday there was BUSY!!! I haven't had a huge rotation like that in YEARS!! At the end of the night as I put everything away, Paul told me that people were singing my praises and that they thought I did a great job hosting *YAY* I mean, I've been doing it for almost 9 years now, but it's nice to hear ;-)

Sunday Kevin's friend Kevin came over for football and we had a great time. Lions lost (again) nothing much else to say lol

My teeth have been killing me since the dentist I've been popping so many pills. Only 4 more days to go tho. I've been good and brushing them 2 and 3 times a day and flossing too. I'm gonna do my best to keep the teeth I can.

Okay I think that's pretty much it. I gotta work tomorrow a private party in Lincoln Park then off to O'Tee's to finish out the night and Sat is O'Tee's again. This extra money is really coming in handy. I need to go job hunting monday tho. Just 20 hours a week @ Mickey D's and I'll be happy, I can walk there if i have to.

KK, time for a nap. I'm so tired and I've done nothing all day lol *hugs*

Cooperative, courteous, and considerate, you have the capacity to become an outstanding facilitator. You know how to organize and handle people.

Here's a close up of the detail. I'm not totally crazy about fringing it to finish, but Kevin seemed to think his mom would love it.  Posted by Picasa

My latest crochet creation. It's much prettier than it looks in the piccie. It's a really soft multi brown yarn just done in single crochet side to side instead of long ways like i did my mom's. I'm giving this to Kevin's mom for her bday which is Sunday. I started it yesterday and finished the fringe today. I love it!  Posted by Picasa

Here is the cap I made for my mom to match the scarf. It took me FOREVER and it was such an easy pattern at first glance. I kinda like how the cuff has more of a consistent pattern than the rest of the hat. I'm assuming because that's where I stopped increasing the pattern. I just have to wash it and I can give it to my mom yay! Next I'm working on a one skein scarf for Kevin's mom for her bday (which is saturday but the party is sunday...that's a whole other jar of worms...none of them can come to either of our parties...incl. my bday party last week...but we're EXPECTED to go to this one. I know it's Kevin's mom but Karrie Ann (Kevin's sis-in-law) acutally called us and said we are to bring the ice cream...without finding out first if we can even go. We had actually made plans to go to a friend's house on Sunday to watch football and were even gonna stay the night incase there was too much beer imbibed. I was so mad when they called I could barely see straight. Posted by Picasa
