Okey Dokey - I had to share my latest finds with ya...I got a beaver fur coat (full dress length!!!) for a steal at one of the local vintage shops!! Seriously awesome - have to get it cleaned (has a funky "I've been stored somewhere in the closet for 40 years kinda smell) and repair a small hole. I can't wait to see what else I find :)

Getting ready for that lovely freezing fog advisory. Hoping for some good 'ole karaoke fun tonight. Maybe. But I was able to put some lovely new things in the store - so stop by and take a look!

So I go grocery shopping today - no biggie. Get the kiddies into the cart and off we go - kinda. We got stopped by a local news channel to see if I would answer some questions about groceries and prices ON CAMERA. Since I always look stellar when I grocery shopping (NOT) I agree, because at least the kids are cute - and well behaved (for once). Needless to say, I will look horrible with my non-made up face with its lovely acne and my super huge sweater. But at least the kids are cute :)

Well - its finally here :) Happy New Year!
My goals (not a resolution - those are just made to be broken) for this year are to
a) eat more locally grown food
b) start running again
c) do random acts of kindness for people
d) try not to be too much of a bitch :)
e) teach my kids to read

I'm also hoping to get more done for my Etsy shop (etsy.com/shop/hippiejo74) and learn how to knit socks. I really love knee socks and it is so hard to find any that don't suck. All the China made crap is soooo thin and I really love angora and cashmere (really - who doesn't??) so I figure it's about time I made my own. I'll let you know how that goes... :)
