So since all of my craft stuff are gone I decided I needed something to pass the time. I needed some small and compact because I didn't want to carry a bunch of stuff with me, then I though of cross stitching. I did it once before when I was younger so I got the jist of it down but the patterns I've been looking at are more for older ladies and I wanted something fun. On Instagram I came across a company call the frosted pumpkin stitchery and I fell in love with all the patterns. In one week I bought six patterns. This one is called legendary friends and I love the little unicorn. I should have used a lighter color fabric but this is the first pattern I finished, just waiting on my black thread to come so I can put eyes on the little girl and the unicorn.

So exciting!!!
The movers came on Monday and took most of our things, we'll all of our things the only things left are kitchen stuff and my husband army stuff. That will be shipped at a later date. But for now we are leaving out of suitcases and trying to make the time go by. Only a month and a half left and back to sweet ole "merica". I can't wait to go to walmart, to the movies, to the mall. I feel like we will get back to regular life. That's why it's so exciting.

My make-up kit
So I cant believe the movers will be here next week, time is flying by so fast. Lately I have been putting this aside so I can pack them in my suitcase and today I gathered all my makeup supplies that I will be using for the next 2 months. It doesn't seem like a lot of stuff but once I hit the states I'm buying all the new stuff that came out while I was here that I couldn't get so my makeup collection will grow even more. Its a bunch more eye shadows and lip glosses that I cant pack so I just pack what I would need so I wouldn't look so hideous. I packed my various brushes from sigma brushes and target. My MAC lipsticks in hug me, ruby woo, film noir, syrup. Wet n Wild lipsticks in 916D AND 918D. Lip glosses in MAC big baby (my all time fav lip gloss). Covergirl lip gloss in papaya splash. CO Bigelow lip gloss in magenta mint. Clinique chubby stick in woppin watermelon. MAC Fix+, Rimmel makeup remover, E.L.F. mist & set, and of course carmex to moisturize my lips. NYC lip liners in 956,952,957A, NYX lipliner in 810. Urban Decay NAKED pallet the original one that first came out, eyelash curler, NYC liquid liner, Covergirl lashblast lenght mascara, Too Faced shadow insurance (don't like it), Rimmel london white eyeliner, Maybelline define-a-brow in medium brown. MAC mineralize powder in dark, MAC blush in coygirl, Make up forever full cover concealer in number 14, Black opal concealer in toast, and lastly Revlon colorstay foundation in caramel for oily skin. That's all the makeup I am going to take with me, nothing more and nothing less, unless you count nail polish as makeup then I'm taking more.

Ugh...
So our internet went out last night and I swear me and my husband couldnt figure wou what to do with ourselves. Overseas I watch the latest tv shows and keep up with my friends, my daughter watches peppa pig and nursey rhymes on YouTube and my husband plays video games with his friends. I sit back and think about when I was younger and we didn't have internet and I really didn't care but now it's like I need it, that's another reason why I can't get back to the states I didn't need internet I had a life.

The tale of one book
I just love reading young adult novels, even though I am a grown women with a husband and a child. I can sit here and tell you I haven't really read a book in about 4-5 years. Yea ridiculous right. The last book i read was precious and I read it because I knew the movie was coming out and I wanted to know all the details that the movie would leave out. I was once the little girl that would carry some type of novel with me and read it whenever I had time. Books took me to another place and I could always image the words in my head and how they played out, like a scene from a movie. Recently I was on Facebook and I saw some of the ladies from my neighborhood start their own neighborhood book club. At first I was offended that they didn't even ask me if I wanted to join but then then I thought I'm leaving this place so why would I care. That had me thinking I should read a book myself. I didn't know what to choose from because it's not like I can go to the bookstore and browse the rows and rows of books and I didn't want to go to the library because I'm still waiting to be called to pick up a book I requested last year. Yea the library on post has a super long waiting list. I just happen to hop on Facebook and bam there on a page I follow they was discussing "The Miseducation of Cameron Post" they was saying how young adult books and still relevant for adults and this is a book you should read. Got more into the post and I thought I really want this book. Who wouldn't want to read a sexually confused teenager living in Montana with a bible thumping aunt. So I quickly downloaded iBooks on my iPad and looked it up and bam there it was for just 5.99 how could I not pass that book. I've been reading for two days now a chapter a night but last night I read two chapters because I couldn't sleep. I have to say I am very into it and can wait to see how things turn out.

Ugh...the dentist
Today is the day I go back to the dentist. This place I loathe and hate with all my heart and I am a scared little baby but it has to be done. The dentist knows to put me to sleep every time I show up. I cannot be awake when they are drilling in my mouth because it's a deep rooted fear of the dentist that happened when I was a child. I was the only child out of 4 kids that was born with bad teeth. Don't get me wrong I never needed braces or major work I guess my teeth just liked getting cavities. So all those trips to the dentist and being shot up all the time over time my fear just increased so now at 30 years old the dentist has to give me pills to calm down and put me to sleep because if not I told him I would punch him in his face.

Happy Mail
Oh what a wonderful thing whenever I get scrappy goodness in the mail. And one store that makes me happy is paperissues I swear when I get that hounds tooth wrapped package my heart skips a beat and I just stare at what I just received. This package contains the chipboard stickers and coordinating paper from the Crate Paper "Open Road" collection. To me Crate Paper has the best collections all the time and they never fail me. When I saw Cassie over at paperissues had this I knew I had to snatch it up. With our upcoming move I knew this will go well with all the pictures I plan on taking,and this time I don't plan on missing anything.
