When I called my mom last Sat and talked to her for ovcer an hour, she asked if the kids (Allison, Colin and Emily, the nieces and nephew) had sent us a box of 'Goodies' yet.

I said, nope, this was the first I'd heard of it. She was surprised, as they were apparently pretty happy about it.

So when I opened the door today, there was a box sitting on my front porch. I knew immediately who it was from.

I just opened it a few minutes ago. It was stuffed with things, complete with a 'Read This 1ST!!' letter. Which of course, I read first and busted out laughing over.

Well, mom sent me my MSU shirt back, I guess dad got tired of pretending to be a fan. LOL And she sent the little plastic bottles to store beads in. Those will definately come in handy here.

THe kids went to Wisconsin with their parents, and sent Mark a 'CheeseHead' ROTFL. He'll LOVE that.

They sent me a small Wolf in a wood crate that says 'I captured this Wolf for you, Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin'. Very cute!

And another letter, lol. Allison says she didn't want to have to tell me about the trip all over again}:P Instead of one puppy, they ended up with two. Jack Russells I believe, if I remember what mom told me right.

And a box of Girl Scout Cookies- Carmel Delights, aka Samoas.}:P Those are getting hidden from mark. *shifty eyes*

They should be getting their packages soon too, I sent them in mom's birth day gift box. Need to call tomorrow and make sure she got it.}:) now I need to get together new packages to send them}:P

I bet Mark will want to wear his new CheeseHead to rapier practice tonight. *groans*

In a fit of manic creativity last night, instead of merely cutting the pattern out for Mark's SCA rapier armore, I laid it out on the duck canvas, traced it out in seamstress chalk, and proceeded to cut every piece out. That's 4 of each piece.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find my full size scissors, so had to use small, thread cutting type ones (instead of the 7", I had to use my 5"), and broke one side of the handle in the process. Really need to find my other scissors.

And that's just the black duck canvas, still have to cut out 4 pieces of each in the burgandy duck canvas, then again with with natural, only 2 pieces of much of the pattern for that, and in the nice silk weave cloth we bought to make him a court doublet.

He did the dishes for me last night. His ulterior motive was so I'd have more time to work on his armor. *rolls eyes* I honestly did more last night than I planned. Heh. Was originially going to cut it out over the next couple of days. But now... Now I have to set the sewing machine up and actually start sewing it. Heh.

But first, need to find the drill bits and move the sections of fencing we're supposed to work on putting up next weekend. If it doesn't rain.

It's kind of odd... waking up at 530am and realising you don't have to get up and go to work.}:P Need to retrain my brain to stop thinking about work, dammit.

Ok I've procrastinated enough, time to go to work.. err.. not really.
