Necessity is the mother of invention they say, so I bring you a wonderful dish with the ingredients I had just laying around. Perfect for the holidays!


Ingredients:
one (1) retail job, in no more than 20-hour slices
six (6) different bosses (wannabe bosses may be substituted)
one (1) ex-husband
two (2) non-working cars
four (4) dollars to your name, in dimes
add paint to taste *optional

Combine retail job with three bosses until bothered. Simmer. Stir in three of the dollars to your name, alternately folding in the remaining three bosses gently. Be careful here, the bosses bruise easily.

Coat shelter with remaining dollar to your name lightly (for easier removal after eviction).

In a separate bowl, beat the ex-husband with two non-working cars until frothy. Set aside.

Pour bothered retail job mixture into prepared shelter. Blindfold, and place on bottom rung. Bake until sluggish.

Carefully remove from rung and remove blindfold. Sprinkle with ex-husband mixture, taking care to spread the non-working cars evenly. Leave blindfold off, and place back on the bottom rung.

Bake until insane.



Wow. Have I really neglected my poor dA journal so thoroughly? I can't believe it's been seven months since my last update!

I've healed well from the surgery I had in April and I still have not gotten over the novelty of having a flat tummy. Sorry thing is, now my body is compensating for the fat cells I've lost and I gain weight in the love handle area a bit too well.

So, as to my absence, I use the excuse that I'm practically holding other things together with duct tape right now. Things could be better at the moment financially, but they will also be better soon. It's just a matter of lasting for the next couple of months first.

Yes, I'm again without a car. This time for good until I get a nice chunk of income tax return in February-ish to get another one. The Jimmy finally gave in and blew a head gasket. I have something that looks like melted chocolate coming out of the engine and coating the dipstick, so I'd say it's un-drivable now. I'm bumming rides like a kid at a carnival.

Yes, I'd love to beat the ex with a car, but alas, I lack the upper body strength and the power of attorney.

Things with Emmett are going lovely, and I'm pretty sure I won the race with him. We've been seeing each other for about 6 months now, and all is quite well.

Children are still monsters, but that's the way they've always been and as always , I wouldn't change them for anything.

We're working on the lack of funds, and I'm holding down the fort until then. I would love that job where I make corsets and reenactment clothes at home to be handed to me, but what I have is better than nothing until I can build such from the ground.

Incidentally, I will be posting full-bodied pics of the dress I made for my costume this year. I edited everything out but the dress, but I think it looks better that way. My mannequin was made roughly from my Christmas tree.

Interesting thing there; if you're in need of a body form and you have 1) A fake 6 foot Christmas tree... 2) A crinoline petticoat or other such stuffing... 3) A corset to shape the petticoat around the tree... then you have instant body form! As I said, necessity is the mother of invention. It works quite well, actually. Even has a built-hoop skirt. lol

So, I am still quite alive and satirically healthy. Thank you everyone, for sticking with me even when I am coloring too enthusiastically in the real life book.

Everyone, pig out!
