Owl Wednesday

Owl Be Home Orniments

They're cute...

I mean, they're adorable!

And they're all these different colors!

That's about it.

For me, I like a little more class and subtlety when I go for a fad thing like this.

They're just a tad...gaudy... I hated to say that because you know how much I love Modcloth!

They're cutsie, but they're not quite my style, that's all I'm saying...

and now onto some things that ARE my style!

Woman of the Owl-r

More me-ish. If you know what I mean

At Your Beak and Call

OH MY GOSH

Okay, okay.

So I think that I've posted about this phone pouch before, but COME ON!

How could I not talk about something as great and cute and sweet as this?!

And honestly, I'm a sucker for crocheted things.

Really, when I look at it, it makes me think of my chest of yarn,

and now I have decided to make my own Owl Phone cover, inspired by Modcloth's!

YAY ME!

Have a great Wednesday!

and Happy Christmas!

Holiday Sunday

Hello all of my dears,

I know that it's been an incredably long time since I've posted anything, and there may be a good reason for that, because as I write this, there are sooo many gramatical and spelling errors that I should just leave. Leave it for another day.

But hey, when the insparation hits, you have to let it flow, right?

In the last two weeks I have had two outfits that made me think of you, thinking "wow, this would really go over well on my blog" but alas, I have not had the time to photograph them. Perhaps when I have the time, I will recreate the outfits and let you all see ;-)

Anyway, Today we set up our Christmas tree, and it's super pretty this year. It's not as tall of a tree as we normally get, but that's what you risk when you pick 'em from your own back yard.

Happy Almost-Christmas!

Yes, I've taken to saying Happy Christmas instead of Merry Christmas.

I'm not sure how I decided this, but today when I was talking to friends at church, it just popped out that way

"Happy Christmas!"

and they were all like

"What? Happy Christmas? Have you gone British on us?"

I suppose I have.

This past week has been a rollercoaster for me, which I'm sure you will have noticed if you follow me on Twitter at all (@TerpLiddy)

I met the guy my sister is trying to set me up with,

Was told of another guy who my co-worker *wants* to set me up with,

and saw my old crush.

Also, it was Thanksgiving.

I think that part was a blessing though, cause I couldn't have dealt with all the emotional ups and downs if I also had to deal with staying "cool" at work.

Expect to see another Owl Wednesday post this week!

and just so you all know, Cara and I are still going with our Two Nerd Birds vlog,

so please check us out and leave comments on our channel!

 At first this dress is all, calm and sweet... then you turn around and WOW!

Foam Design

It turns into this! And I'm in love.

 I like tea, and I think that this little guy is very sweet.

 I would love to have him floating in my cup!

Armed with Technology Tea Infuser

And he's all like "I'm so happy to be in your cup!"

I am falling more and more in love with old styles like this

Eva Franco Earthen Angel

it's so pretty and the pattern is sweet but bold.

When the Night Comes

Again, black, lace *!* and classy. I approve.

This Friday is going to be a real 'win' for me. I have it off from work and I am spending it:

1. doing bills

2. cleaning my room

3. working on my dad's birthday present with my sister

4. Shopping with the sister!

I'm excited, and I hope that you are all having a nice Friday too.

What's my favorite thing today?
God's protection.
I was on the job today and the school's van that I was riding in got rear-ended by a drunk driver.
We were mostly safe, all with sore necks and two students with minor (?) injuries who were taken to the hospital to get checked and taken care of. (I'm not sure of their status since I was taken to a separate ambulance and didn't see or hear the details).

It was scary though and I just praise God that we are all (mostly) okay and that no one was fatally injured.
The other driver was okay, but has been taken into custody due to the drunken status.

This week has been full of ups and downs, stressful and terrible at times and then completely wonderful and couldn't-get-better at others.

Let me tell you about one of the later instances!

Last night I went to an interpreted play of Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night" and it was GREAT!
I love going to plays, so I am totally biased when I give my opinion.

I hope that tomorrow I won't have too sore of a neck from the whip-lash, but I'll keep you updated,

and if you've been following my vlog at TwoNerdBirds on YouTube then you will have heard by now that my newly pierce ears were infected.
Well, thanks to some quick work and really nice salves, I have already beat the infection and the swelling has gone down substantially. Thanks to God for that too. I can't take much more drama this week.


Have a good weekend! TGIF!
