Pillows and Monsters and Interviews. Oh My.

I have discovered a slight fetish … a pillow fetish. 

As you can tell … I don’t like matchy matchy when it comes to decorating.   And yes … that is a rabbit/wild fox/bigfoot hair pillow. And yes … I am wearing jean cut off shorts … go ahead … judge me.

Mitchell and I wandered over to the park today on a mission.  A branch finding mission.  Mission complete.  I have a little decorating project up my sleeve.  I have all these ideas in my head … and I never just know how they will turn out. Pictures will follow in the following weeks … IF all goes well

Lil’ Champ sprouted a massive mast and Mitchell sailed us home.

I created a fur child a couple weeks back … and I love her. Mitchell and I went to the SLC arts festival and some girl was selling some adorable plush monsters … for $75. I made a $6 version. And her name is Harriet.

 

As you can tell by looking at the calendar … job interviews are taking place … I am on the job hunt … again.  You might be thinking … “Wait! Didn’t you just get a job a few months ago?”  And the correct answer is .. “Yes. Yes I did.”    To make a long story short:  I don’t go home at the end of each night feeling right… morally. I hate being associated with the business and the things that go on there. Shady. The end.

 

On a side note … I cut my hair.  Like a little boy. And I love it. My name is now Aaron.

Erin, you look nothing like my Aaron! That cut doesn't look remotely masculine on you!

I'm so sorry that the job is not all you dreamed of and more! May you learn what you need to learn from this experience and be blessed to move on to greener work pastures soon! We love you!

Elodie said she'd name your little pillow monster "McKenzie." That's one of her favorites these days. "Actually, Sally." She changes her mind a lot these days.

Love that cute monster! That would be a fun Halloween decoration. Why don't you make more and sell them for $75 each. Job dilemma solved. Seriously, good luck with the interviews!

Erin! Why did you leave me? Good Luck on the interviews. Please use me as a reference. I am glad to see you still have your sense of humor. I cut my hair off too! You would be proud!
Love ya!

What a bold woman--between serious haircuts, hairy pillows, and LARGE branch hauling--no one could ever call you wimpy. What a stud-muffin, And I want to make Harriet's cousin, as a bday present for Eden this month. I love that.
