That's why I was SO excited to receive this gorgeous blue opal nose ring similar to <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/107531559/opal-nose-ring-stud-sterling-silver?ref=shop_home_active_15&ga_search_query=opal%2Bnose%2Bring"> this one I posted</a> in this <a href="http://glitterandrhinestones.blogspot.com/2014/08/an-etsy-wedding-part-one.html">Etsy wedding inspiration post</a>. <br><br>

I can't remember the last time I took a selfie, so as you can see, I really must love my new piece of jewelry. Shuli & Uzi of <a href="http://holylandstreasures.etsy.com">Holy Land's Treasures</a> were so sweet to create this stunning piece for me. Their constant communication is just a small part of their excellent customer service. The jewelry came in an adorable glittery box, with a detailed list of how to care for my jewelry, a 100% satisfaction guarantee, & even a piece of candy. Their jewelry is all hand crafted with bright, shiny metals & precious stones, at extremely fair prices. I urge you to check out <a href="http://holylandstreasures.etsy.com">their Etsy shop</a>! Here is a little sneak peek of what you can expect to find there.<br><br>

"You're glowing!" "No. I'm wearing bronzer." I have said this many a times. Hormones have given me some pretty sweet pimples to brag about. Psh. Seriously, my neck makes me so self conscious. I wish I had "that pregnancy glow". I have to pile on makeup to make myself look & feel better, which in turn contributes to more break outs, which requires more makeup to cover them up. Vicious cycle. What sucks a big one is that you have to be careful what you apply on your body while pregnant, because many products could potentially harm the tiny human friend in your uterus. I haven't completely tamed my prego skin problems & I am no expert...BUT it has gotten better with a few tweaks to my "beauty routine" based on experimentation, friendly advice, & internet research.<br><br>

<center>L'OREAL true match mineral powder & Physicians Formula Powder or Bronzer</center><br>
L'OREAL minerals...the bareMinerals for a baller on a budget with a baby on the way. I have currently given up on using concealer or foundation, & just focus on using this powder when necessary. While it doesn't give the BEST coverage in all the land, it works pretty damn well & doesn't seem to lead to additional break outs. I still need to add some color to my face, & Physicians Formula products are pretty safe for sensitive skin.<br><br>

<center>Colgate Toothpaste</center><br>
As almost everyone & their mom knows, toothpaste it great for spot treatment on zits. Leaving it on overnight will help dry out & shrink your lovely lady lumps. Check it out. Just don't forget it's on your face/neck/chest & answer your front door. You will get a strange look from the FedEx lady. She will perhaps think you attended a great frat party the previous evening. Even if you are pregnant, I guess.<br><br>

<center>Witch Hazel</center><br>
Since salicylic acid is a NO NO, witch hazel is a great alternative to use as a toner. It's also good for bulging butt veins (AKA hemorrhoids), a common romantical itchy side effect of pregnancy poops.<br><br>

<center>Organic Unrefined Coconut Oil, 100% Tea Tree Oil, & Desert Essence Blemish Touch Stick</center><br>
We've all read & heard all about the wonders of coconut oil. Put it in your hair, on your face, in your mouth, on your butt. Whatever you want. The world is your oyster & coconut oil is your gorgeous pearl. I never thought I would be one to try oil pulling, but I am now a fan. I try to swoosh the oil around for about 20 mins before spitting it out in the trash can (DO NOT CLOG YOUR DRAIN!). I know spitters are quitters, but I will admit that I have gagged a few times or had to spit it out early. I feel like my teeth are noticeably whiter (in my opinion), & there are also supposedly some other cool perks, but since this post is about vanity, that's all I'll mention.<br>
Let's get back to the ultra sexy topic of adult acne, shall we? We shall. My wonderful friend Michelle recommended using tea tree oil in moderation to treat my skin. I used tea tree oil & coconut oil as a sort of sweaty looking grease mask/makeup remover every night for over a week straight & definitely noticed that my skin improved. My boyfriend told me that I smell like turpentine in the process, but I didn't ask him so I do not care. I dabbed tea tree oil on my face, neck, & chest, then rubbed in coconut oil. I left it on for about 15-20 mins & scrubbed it lightly with a wet washcloth. I followed with witch hazel, & this tea tree oil blemish touch stick. It is safe enough to be used 5-6 times a day, & it works great! I have done this routine since, but not on the daily. I imagine if I am consistent, I will either attain that "glow" I want, or just be a big ol grease ball. Either way. Now for some experiments...<br><br>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgf6P_79YyFLQwXJy1IUA64oNIgJYSpFa0Mhf5lsflT_SgHdXs_MabrMaIkQemcukXVThKKZkmylz_CKqZGU4EmvTj2L7JIs7z1rNgnFv_FhWw5Uto01ir-1KAKfOGRNe0mogFb5LPHk24/s1600/saltsugar.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgf6P_79YyFLQwXJy1IUA64oNIgJYSpFa0Mhf5lsflT_SgHdXs_MabrMaIkQemcukXVThKKZkmylz_CKqZGU4EmvTj2L7JIs7z1rNgnFv_FhWw5Uto01ir-1KAKfOGRNe0mogFb5LPHk24/s1600/saltsugar.png"></a></div><br>
<center>Coconut Oil, Tea Tree Oil, Sea Salt, & Brown Sugar Scrub</center><br>
This is pretty self explanatory. I mixed these ingredients (only a couple drops of the tea tree oil) until it was the consistency of...a scrub? haha. I used it in the shower & actually had to get out to grab more sea salt because the scrub felt too greasy. I'm nervous that maybe I went a little overboard & let too much go down the drain, & I did clog my razor because I decided to exfoliate my pits with this scrub. While I have felt soft & smooth all day, I obviously do not know what kind of effect it will or would end up having on pimples. I used this stuff on every inch of my skin. Seriously. I do plan on trying it again, but need to dilute it with something so that I do not feel that I am simply slathering myself in Crisco. I shall report back when I have a stronger opinion on this scrub trial.<br><br>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt3RUJzJAs-TwLXO8bjWJgeVRrs9VEh1TsMyRob1iTxNteQzMB9HM65iIZ-aEM9cThd7fsG5ln0k1H8bHQaiq0SyXFLyiRRkamX5m3fdYHS5oUoZGwsQdTHHDai20trsFiaWrKOT9q4MU/s1600/sodawater.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt3RUJzJAs-TwLXO8bjWJgeVRrs9VEh1TsMyRob1iTxNteQzMB9HM65iIZ-aEM9cThd7fsG5ln0k1H8bHQaiq0SyXFLyiRRkamX5m3fdYHS5oUoZGwsQdTHHDai20trsFiaWrKOT9q4MU/s1600/sodawater.png"></a></div><br>
<center>Baking Soda Mask</center><br>
Baking Soda is another crazy useful product. I mixed it with water to make a paste, the same way that you would if you were to use it as a teeth whitener. I scrubbed this all over my face, neck, & chest. It burned, but in a good way. Hurts so good. I left it on long enough for it to completely dry (about 15 minutes), & then rinsed off & patted my skin dry. I read that this can really dry out your skin & that you want to use an oil free moisturizer afterward. Tonight was the first time that I have done this, & I have to say that I feel good about it. I'd do it maybe every other day, unless it irritated my skin.<br><br>

<center>Tip: Wash hair on the daily.</center><br>
I read this over & over about my hormonal acne...wash hair every day to avoid dirty, greasy hair causing blemishes by touching your skin. Having naturally thin hair, it gets greasy fast anyway. So I SHOULDN'T wash it every day typically, because then it will become overly dry & my scalp will produce even more oil, resulting in even greasier hair. BLEH. However, I have decided to give this a go during pregnancy/until my skin problems are alleviated. Whichever happens first. Seeing how I am due in 4 weeks, I am guessing it will be the latter. Everything is magical lately, so I have included Head & Shoulders in the photo because pregnancy has also blessed me with some attractive dandruff. WOOHOO! I've used a dollop of it along with my regular shampooing routine for almost my entire pregnancy & haven't noticed any more flakes. That's a good thing, since that's what this product is supposed to do. Go H&S, doing your job n sheeit.<br><br>

<center>Honey Masks</center><br>
The same wonderful Michelle who recommended the tea tree oil has also shared with me <a href="https://www.organicfacts.net/home-remedies/honey-mask-for-acne.html">this fine chart of honey masks</a>. I am excited to try several of these, especially the apple or tea tree oil versions. Of course, I will review my experiences on this here interweb journal. <a href="http://pregnant.sg/articles/diy-face-masks-foods-you-can-use-on-your-skin/">This blog</a> also has great ideas for foods to use as part of your skin care routine. It's actually what inspired me to add sea salt & brown sugar to coconut oil today.<br><br>
I look forward to finding some kind of miracle cure for this hormonal acne dilemma, but life isn't all unicorns & glitter farts. If you have any natural, safe remedies for skin problems, send them my way! Thanks, fools.<br>

<center>Baxter was rescued in 2008, at the tender age of one year old. HE CAME FROM THE STREETS. This dog is hard. Not in a red rocket fashion, thankfully. He was super skinny & we nursed him to the plump state he is in today. Baxter enjoys cuddling, his sister, cuddling his sister, squirrels, attention, his mom, & dog bones. He is a resilient pup that overcame paralysis of half of his body due to calcified discs on his spine, & a surgery to remove NINE kidney stones. AND YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE TOUGH. He is a needy, stinky little sweetie pooh, though. I love him.</center><br><br>

<center>Layla was rescued from a shelter in 2009. Just a shy little baby at 6 months old, but so sweet & friendly. Layla enjoys cuddling, her brother, cuddling her brother, squirrels, attention, her mom, & dog bones. She is also a resilient pup, having survived a SUPER traumatic collar entanglement with a friend's dog. Seriously, the worst night of our dog-mom lives. Dogs choking, bleeding, fear-pooping & peeing...it was terrible. This may be why Layla is quite jumpy. I'd say she is a good mix of fearless & jumpy, if there is such a thing. She has the softest fur & the stinkiest breath. I love her.</center><br><br>

So in love, in fact, that what should've been one post turned into three. <a href="http://glitterandrhinestones.blogspot.com/2014/08/its-all-black-white-gold-baby-part-one.html">Part one</a> & <a href="http://glitterandrhinestones.blogspot.com/2014/08/its-all-black-white-gold-baby-part-two.html">Part two</a>. I looked to <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/stinkyolfinke/">Pinterest</a> for some Pinspiration...WHAT A PUN. WORDMASTER. MASTER OF WORDS.<br><br>

There is something so clean looking about crisp white with black details. There is also something about white that is terrifying...just begging to be stained by baby fluids & messes. Oh, well. I will not let fear run my household or my life, homeslice. I digress. What to do after finding baby room Pinspiration? <a href="http://www.etsy.com">Go shopping</a> for baby room decor, of course. Wall accessories, blankets, & some plush toys...<br><br>

That's gotta be all she wrote for today, folks. The rest of my day shall be filled with eating tacos (SIMPLE, AWESOME RECIPE COMING SOON!), washing tiny baby clothes, & watching FLIPPING OUT with Jeff Lewis because every season is on Hulu. BOOYA.<br><br>

As fun as it was getting carried away with my black, white, & gold baby thangs, I decided it was time to break up those posts with a little bit of color. I'll be back with more cute Etsy finds in the baby department & some Pinterest inspiration. Pinspiration, if you will. For now, Less is More: NEON. Being a frugal lady, I can't condone spending an arm & a leg on even the most beautiful items. I enjoy cheaper alternatives, especially on trendy pieces.

Oh, hey. Hi! Hello there. I am back with part two of my black, white, & gold installation. Installment. Huh? Yes. This post is strictly about Etsy finds. My passion for promoting <a href="http://www.etsy.com">Etsy</a> is a combination of my love for shopping & handmade, and my natural instinct to feel the need to be proud of a platform that hosts <a href="http://thebeadsmiths.etsy.com">my current shop</a> & past shops. Only makes sense. Let's get to it.<br><br>

Before I knew the sex of my baby, I had a dream I was having a girl, but I had no preference either way. After I found out my dream was accurate, I was so excited to go shopping for baby girl clothes right away. I went a tad bit overboard with shopping the first week. Everything is extra adorable, pink, floral, etc. I was in love with all the cuteness. I still am, but I quickly settled down from my tiny shopping sprees. I am definitely frugal though, so at least I can give myself credit for that. One trip to Babies R Us, I discovered Carter's Black & White Collection. I was in love again. It's not the most traditional collection of clothes for girls. Black, white, & touches of gold. As much as I would love to dress Adalynn in the entire collection, I am not rich. Or in need of that many more clothes. Check out this big batch of adorable...<br><br>

<center>These are my favorite little onesies. I also got a cardigan with subtle gold sparkle, & some <a href="http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=31475136&cp=&parentPage=search">Koala Baby gold glitter espadrilles</a>. A tiny human baby doll is in my near future, for sure. :) Here are some little baby shoes I found on Etsy that I absolutely ADORE...</center><br><br>

Similar to going overboard with baby clothes shopping, I also went SUPER overboard with this post. It had to be split up into 3 parts. So...more to come! Look forward to more Etsy finds, & some Pinterest inspiration. I hope you had a great weekend, little lovers.<br>

You may be wondering about the abundance of succulents. Well, you shouldn't be, because they are obviously gorgeous. Another reason I love them, though...is because I hear they're hard to kill. Maybe not hard to kill, but not hard to keep alive. I used to be good at killing plants. I would probably be alright now, since I'm nurturing a human in my uterus & everything. Little baby Addie is way more important than a plant, though. I digress. Weddings are cool. This is the look I'd have in mind for mine. I hope you enjoyed taking a peek inside my brain (err, my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/people/thebeadsmiths/favorites/items-i-love?ref=pr_faveitems_list_name">Etsy favorites</a>). Have a fabulous HUMPDAYEE!<br><br>

When you are pregnant, you become public property. So I am often asked "So, when are y'all getting married?" & when it's from a stranger I obviously want to say "NUNYA BIDNIZ", but that's not in my (usual) nature. On the flip side, I know the first question a newlywed is asked is "So, when are y'all having kids?" and it may drive them nuts as well. I understand the curiosity, but I am in love & have been for years. My relationship is stable, my heart is full, & the little human who will be my new best friend is my top priority over the stress of a wedding. That being said, I definitely intend to marry my boyfriend. It has been discussed in the past & planned for the future. We are content in our present. I, just like most girls, dream of my future wedding. I can't say that I picture it as a whole, but little details stick out in my mind & make me smile. If I could create a rough draft of how my wedding would look, it would be a lot of handmade, on a budget, & a little less traditional. Browsing through my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/people/thebeadsmiths/favorites/items-i-love?ref=pr_faveitems_list_name">Etsy favorites</a>, I came up with this wedding inspiration board. Enjoy, little lovers.<br><br>

I forgot about the manly things. That's the easy part, anyway. Knowing him, it will be all black. Next inspiration board: wedding decor...I would love to see your posts about your wedding style. Please link in the comments...if anyone is listening (with your eyeballs)!<br><br>

I have made custom pieces for bridal parties YEARS ago, & I just recently sold some of <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/189178810/pink-purple-blue-or-pewter-druzy-ring?ref=shop_home_feat_1">these rings</a> for a sweet customer's wedding. It's so neat to know you were a tiny part of someone's big day. Aww, feelings & stuff.<br><br>

Since I've posted at all? No. I had to test for spam comments. Actively written...FIVE YEARS. So keep that in mind if you happen to peruse through my old posts. A lot of things have changed. A new (old) location, relationship, & I have a little baby on the way. 7 weeks until my due date of October 1st. I can't wait to meet my little nugget, Adalynn Mae :) I am also a mommy to two plump pups, Baxter & Layla.
Since I have successfully defeated spam (HUZZAH!), have a ton of time on my hands (for now), & an itch to blog once again, I have been brought back here. I hope you enjoy my creative & sometimes twisted mind. Here's a quick bit of photography for your eyeballs.

My friend Amy & I were just talking the other day, & we remembered a survey I posted in a bulletin years ago (come to find out it was March 1, 2007 to be exact), & tons of people replied to it, because I'm a silly little bitch. I knew it was hiding in my inbox, just waiting to be found, just waiting to be relived, but alas...I have 500 pages of messages in my inbox on Myspace & it would take me forever to find it. Welllll, not anymore :) I searched & FOUND my survey I took :) Enjoy...<br><br><br /><br /><b>Subject:</b> about my tattoos. i have like 18.<br /><b>Body:</b> If you have ink, do this survey. Its fun!<br /><br /><b>1. How many tattoos do you have?:</b><br />i already said like 18.<br /><br /><b>2. When did you get your first tattoo?:</b><br />as soon as i came out of the womb. my parents tattooed "FINKE" across my back in an old english style font.<br /><br /><b>3. What was your first tattoo?</b><br />a tiger followed by the phrase "i aint never scared" on my right calf. i got it done when i was in nam. <br /><br /><b>4. Which tattoo is closest to your heart?</b><br />the sweet ass soccer ball i got tattooed on my left tit.<br /><br /><b>5. Do you have a matching tattoo with someone?:</b><br />yeah, my best friend patricia and i got the iguanas hockey team logo on our ribcages. man was that a crazy tuesday! no more drinking on our lunchbreak! but it was worth getting fired, right patty?<br /><br /><b>6. Do you have a tattoo that someone messed up?</b><br />i was supposed to get "no limits" on my lower back, but they accidentally put "no boundaries" and i am not a walmart poster child, so i got it covered. its now a tarantula eating its offspring and<br />george w smith headbanging out of control. its actually a hologram. if i dance all sexy, you can see him jam out. with his clam out.<br /><br /><b>7. Do you have any one's name tattooed on you?</b><br />sure do. i have a huge piece on my back with all the signatures on the declaration of independence. john hancocks is the biggest, naturally. thats what she said. ;)<br /><br /><b>8. What was the most painful tattoo you received?</b><br />the members of "tatu" on each foot. <br /><br /><b>9. Have you ever cried during a tattoo?</b><br />no. im a winner. winners dont cry. WINNERS NEVER CRY.<br /><br /><b>11. Do you have a tattoo that you constantly have to explain?</b><br />the dodge durango i got on my face. that was probably not a good choice.<br /><br /><b>12. Have you ever gotten an infection from a tattoo?</b><br />hepatitis a. through z.<br /><br /><b>13. What is the longest session you've ever sat straight?</b><br />i like to wiggle a lot to make it more interesting. like spin art.<br /><br /><b>14. What is the biggest tattoo that you have and how long did it take?</b><br />the penis i got on my right thigh. im right-handed, so i figured i would "dress to the right" as well. and im not modest about my large piece of art either. <br /><br /><b>15. Have you ever gotten a tattoo of something just because it was funny or shocking?</b><br />well i got a didgeridoo on the other thigh to even it out, because that other thigh piece sure is a heavy tattoo...and i guess thats funny. i dont know. i thought it to be more practical than anything really.<br /><br /><b>16. Do you have any unfinished projects on you right now?</b><br />not really. i was going to get my favorite pair of chonclas on my left shoulder, but at the last minute i changed my mind and got a pelican taking a piss in the ocean and flicking off the sun. <br /><br /><b>17. Has anyone (i.e. parents or girlfriend/boyfriend) gotten pissed over a tattoo you got?</b><br />i let some guy from the bank piss ON several of my tattoos. twice. <br /><br /><b>18. Do you have any tattoos in places that most people don't get to see unless they see you naked?</b><br />apparently most people dont get the word, "NIOSA" tatted across their vagine. i was shocked to find that out. i happen to think its ultra sexy.<br /><br /><b>19. Do you have any people tattooed on you?</b><br />i have a whole crowd on my torso that is all fighting and climbing over each other in order to peek inside my bellybutton. its so realistic and crazy. def one of my favs. thanks dylan!<br /><br /><b>20. Are you worried about what your tattoos will look like when you're old?</b><br />im not going to get "old". havent you ever read "tuck everlasting" fool? get a life. <br /><br /><b>21. Do you regret having gotten any of your tattoos?</b><br />i regret typing this rather than getting even more tattoos! im wasting so much time. <br /><br /><b>22. Would you consider ever getting any of your tattoos removed?</b><br />no i will just keep covering them and see what happens. lifes a beautiful journey, aint it?<br /><br /><b>23. What are you going to get for your next tattoo?</b><br />ive already got my gun out, holmes. its gonna be "ride till i die" on a banner across my chest.<br /><br /><b>24. Do you think members of the opposite sex with a lot of tattoos are hot?</b><br />i guess theyd be hot if they had sleeves done and it was a hot summers day. <br /><br /><center>END SCENE.</center><br /><br />PS-I'm funny.<br />PPS-If you don't think I'm funny, you're mean. R U D E.<br />PPPS-^That kind of says "PeePees" :)<br />PPPPS-If I offended you, that's weird. And I apologize.<br />PPPPPS-At this time, my Myspace name was apparently "penis longoria", which is awesome I guess, but weird...& I don't really remember how or why that came about. At all. But it makes me giggle :)<br />PPPPPPS-I know no one by the name of "Patricia" or "Dylan".<br />PPPPPPPS-I don't have a single tattoo, FYI.<br /><br /><br /><b>YAY WEEKEND!</b><br /><i>Penis Longoria, OUT!</i>jennamichellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10020712819765425575noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5332626351933813441.post-40508172537893819192009-07-08T14:33:00.000-07:002009-07-08T20:17:55.464-07:00Completely inappropriate stranger comment.I apologize in advance for my appearance & behavior.

Please be nice to me :/ ALSO, if you are a creepo like me & you plan on clicking on that video to open it in youtube to see my profile & what other videos I might have...yes I do have about 15 I think, but they're all from 2006 & 2007. So don't judge me, homeskilley. That was a LONG time ago. Ok, moving along now, to happy things...<br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/28488923@N05/3682124192/" title="Etsy Front Page 7/1/09 stylinstuff by Etsy Front Pagers, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2508/3682124192_879d49af9a.jpg" width="447" height="500" alt="Etsy Front Page 7/1/09 stylinstuff" /></a><br> Stolen from <a href="http://flickr.com/groups/EtsyFrontPagers">EtsyFrontPagers on flickr.</a></center><br /><br />I was on the front page again! I was excited, because sales have been super slow, & this gave me a push to keep going. Then yesterday, I made 4 sales! Hell yes! It feels like forever since that's happened, so I was definitely in the best mood last night. Also, I ran a lot, so that helped. <br /><br />I have been creating my little ass off (so my belly may not be small, but my bottom is almost non existant. Pancake bottom, if you will). I have...I believe 20 new pairs of earrings to add. Some are for my new "Spoil Yourself" collection. That might be the dumbest name ever, but I like it. You'll get it. It'll grow on ya. All these new goodies will be available in <a href="http://jennamichelle.etsy.com">my shop</a> soon!<br /><br />I'm sorry for being absent the past couple of days. And now, I have to get ready to go to WORK WORK go to WORK. Oh, Fergie. <br /><br />Yall be good now, ya heard. No, I don't really talk like that, you bunch of crazies,<br />Jenna :/ <br /><br />PS-Yes, that's usually a happy face up there, but that comment today made me a sad little Yenna. I will run more tonight and be a HAPPY YENNA again! Last night's results...5.46 miles, burned 614 calories! YAY! Mon night...4.99 miles, 560 calories! Yes I document this shit! Are you kidding?!

His wife Ginger also has 2 little girls, Natalie & Sophie. I haven't gotten to meet any of them yet because they live states away, so I have THREE nieces & a sister in law to meet! I get to see them in August & I am so excited. Sorry for the lack of posts; I am out of town for my "niece" (my good friend's daughter) Olivia's 4th bday. She's one of the most gorgeous little ones you will ever see. So sweet & silly. I will be back tomorrow with a fresh new post. For now, more peectures of the newest member of my family.

I have a lot of photos to share with you because of that, so be patient! First off, I finally finished my mini update...<br /><center><a href="http://jennamichelle.etsy.com"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2585/3670370165_5afbb47749.jpg" width="500" height="214" alt="Just listed..." /></a><br><br /><a href="http://jennamichelle.etsy.com">CLICK TO VISIT MY SHOP! :)</a></center><br /><br />Now that that's out of the way, I have something important to tell you. My oldest nephew, my little baby nephew Ethan, turned <b>14</b> today. Let me say that again, <b>f o u r t e e n .</b> I told him he's gross. 14 year old boys are gross. Haha. He knows I love him so much. That's so very strange to me. I'm 10 years older than him (I'll be 24 in October), so I made sure he knew how "old" he made me feel today. No, I don't think I'm old, but it feels so strange to me to think I have a teenage nephew. I told him last year on his 13th bday that he was gross then too. I know; I'm such a nice aunt. Actually, I'm his favorite, & he has a lot of aunts on his Dad's & Step Mom's sides. So HA on all of them. I talked to him for a good 30 minutes, & it made me realize how much I really miss him. He lives in Missouri & I'm in Texas. Doing grown up things makes it harder & harder to travel with my family, so I haven't seen him since 2007 :( That makes me so sad. I will see him in August though, along with the rest of my family. I'm excited! I taught Ethan about all of the important things in life, like poop, farts, & that I'm the prettiest girl in the world. He better remember all of that. I feel the need to post some pictures of my nephews now, so I shall indeed...<br /><br /><center><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/19040647@N06/3670370655/" title="HAPPY BIRTHDAY ETHAN! by jennamichelleDOTetsy, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3306/3670370655_1e41ab8bf4.jpg" width="500" height="355" alt="HAPPY BIRTHDAY ETHAN!" /></a><br><br /><b>a</b> Photos in my bedroom of the first time I held Ethan (1995) & Louis (2000). <b>b</b> Holding those beautiful boys again, back in 2003, when I had jowls. & awful hair. <b>c</b> Being silly the summer of 2005.

I LOVE THESE BOYS! I love their Mom just as much. I'm praying for her. She's going to be going through something tough the next few days, so even though you don't know her whatsoever, it would be nice if she could be in your thoughts, at least a little bit.<br /></center><br /><br />Guess who else celebrated a birthday today? My good ol baby dog Baxter turned TWO! That's fourteen in dog years, so Ethan & Baxter celebrated the same birthday together...but apart...and they've never met...neat? I don't know. Anyway, we went to the Arboretum & took the puppies for an hour long walk. It was HOT but they loved it. The squirrels drove them nuts. I took some lovely photos...<br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/19040647@N06/3670370571/" title="A walk through the Arboretum... by jennamichelleDOTetsy, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3564/3670370571_09d4dece21.jpg" width="500" height="315" alt="A walk through the Arboretum..." /></a><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/19040647@N06/3670370251/" title="Baxter's 2nd Bday! by jennamichelleDOTetsy, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3559/3670370251_0eaa060fec.jpg" width="500" height="381" alt="Baxter's 2nd Bday!" /></a><br><br />This totally happened.<br><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/19040647@N06/3670370951/" title="Trees and sunlight. by jennamichelleDOTetsy, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2558/3670370951_034c1f247a.jpg" width="500" height="336" alt="Trees and sunlight." /></a><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/19040647@N06/3671177868/" title="Pretty plants. by jennamichelleDOTetsy, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2440/3671177868_ed06b181eb.jpg" width="373" height="500" alt="Pretty plants." /></a><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/19040647@N06/3670371059/" title="Pretty plants. by jennamichelleDOTetsy, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2483/3670371059_3fb8f785af.jpg" width="500" height="352" alt="Pretty plants." /></a><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/19040647@N06/3671177748/" title="Pretty plants. by jennamichelleDOTetsy, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3648/3671177748_efbba6c5b9.jpg" width="401" height="500" alt="Pretty plants." /></a><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/19040647@N06/3671177022/" title="Baxter's 2nd Bday! by jennamichelleDOTetsy, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2439/3671177022_353ec27415.jpg" width="420" height="500" alt="Baxter's 2nd Bday!" /></a><br /></center><br /><br />I don't know what kind of plants those were up there...but they are damn pretty, aren't they? I know, I know. Wonderful. You know what's NOT wonderful? The fact that I was on such a good roll with going to the gym...then I didn't go for 3 days. I felt so guilty! Two of those days I thought the gym closed later than it did. Who closes at 10 on Fri & 8 on Sat??? LA Fitness, apparently. Oh well. I went back tonight just in time to run for 45 mins. I ran 4.11 miles & burned 458 calories. I know I can do better, so I wasn't TOO impressed with myself, but it was way more worthwhile than not going at all! Then, when I came home in an awesome mood, made an awesome smoothie (I'm telling you people, you need to add Medjool dates! AWESOME!), checked my awesome email, I saw I had an awesome message from an awesome Etsian! My friend Amy from <a href="http://sparklerocks.etsy.com">SparkleRocks</a> told me that I was on the front page again! AWESOME. I will stop saying that now; promise. It's been a long time since I've been on there, & sales have been slooow, so I was excited. I checked Etsy & I happened to be on at that moment! <br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/19040647@N06/3671177092/" title="Front page!

It was inspired by my puppy Baxter, so how appropriate that it was featured & sold on his bday! Right? I know. Neatooo. The buyer was also a sweet mama named Alexis who happened to feature me on her blog, <a href="http://poshpassy.blogspot.com/2009/06/pacifier-bowl.html">The Posh Passy.</a> <br />THANK YOU, ALEXIS! Her blog is adorable, so make sure you <a href="http://poshpassy.blogspot.com">check it out!</a><br /><br />That's all for tonight, folks.<br />Jenna :)<br /><br />PS-I LOVE YOU BIG SEESTER.

I think the whole style of wood grain prints became really popular again several years ago (if I remember accurately, if not then I sound like a big idiot), & since then it has really had quite some staying power. For me personally, I can't get enough of it. Those cute little Etsy finds remind me of a project that has been written down in one of my gajillion brainstorming notebooks & has been stuck in my mind ever since. Now I am reminded of this lovely little project (that I hope turns out just as great as I imagine in my head! Don't you hate it when that DOESN'T happen?! AHH). I have the weekend off, so it's definitely CRAFT TIME.<br /><br />Here's where to find those wood inspired goods...<br /><br />1 <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=21159027">"Pile o Wood"</a> by <a href="http://Geninne.etsy.com">Geninne</a><br />2 <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26980911">"MAGNETIC Inspiration Memo Board Faux Bois in Magenta and Green"</a> by <a href="http://shabbyvintagemom.etsy.com">shabbyvintagemom</a><br />3 <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26614346">"The Friendly Log (mini)"</a> by <a href="http://TheMakers.etsy.com">TheMakers</a><br /><br />Since I can't talk about wood that much without giggling a lot, here are some other things that make me giggle. Tons.<br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26888020"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3329/3662144574_83295b322a.jpg" width="500" height="247" alt="Not your average coloring book." /></a><br><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26888020">"MATURE - The Man Candy Coloring Book - Adults Only"</a> by <a href="http://interrobang.etsy.com">interrobang</a></center><br />This coloring book is funny on its own, because of the concept alone. Then you have to think about the fact that real men actually make these dumb poses for photos. Granted, these are a little better than the spread eagle route some ladies choose to travel, but still. Grown men posin nekked. It's a silly thought, isn't it?! When I was a child, I loved coloring. I still do, but now I am an adult (do I HAVE to be one, already?! I'm only 23 and a half!). And now, being an adult, it's only right for me to grow up & get an adult coloring book. These are the necessary steps we have to take in life in order to grow up. And grow up I shall. Now, where are my crayolas & safety scissors? I'ma make my mom some pwetty awt fow the fwidge.<br /><br /><br /><center><a href="hhttp://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=19189842"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2445/3662144504_33ae4f1a3f.jpg" width="422" height="352" alt="Monkies &amp; pooh." /></a><br><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=19189842">"monkeys (letterpress print)"></a> by <a href="http://johnhilljr.etsy.com">johnhilljr</a></center><br />Umm...I totally don't get this, & that's awesome. Monkies flinging pooh? HA! Saggy utters & what appear to be body scabs? SOLD! The style of this print reminds me of Garbage Pail Kids. Remember those? The monkey on the left looks worried..."Oh, it's falling out, let me catch it for you..." haha. I love this. I would totally hang it up in my house. Geeze, check me out, with my love of anything poop related. <br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26618540"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2464/3661344113_e3c0934017.jpg" width="324" height="500" alt="Congrats on your pregnancy..." /></a><br><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26618540">"Slut Pregnant Card"</a> by <a href="http://goatcards.etsy.com">goatcards</a></center><br />Ok, this just makes me laugh. I just know my friends so well, & they're the kind of people who would get great joy in receiving this along with their baby shower gift. If I was having a litter, I'd love to get this card from a loving chum! Remember that folks. :) If you ARE offended in any way, remember this is something you give to a loved one as a joke because it's unexpected, & you know what they had to do to get that baby in the first place. JUMP ON IT ;) This is NOT a card you give to someone you dislike (unless they're a complete bitch, then go ahead), someone who is having a particularly rough time & extremely emotional pregnancy, or a stranger on the street. You don't know their situation. Don't judge, holmes. Now that that's clear, we can move on...<a href="http://goatcards.etsy.com">goatcards</a> also had a fabulous card that stated something along the lines of "Congratulations on your wedding...Thanks for the free booze", which would have been TOTALLY appropriate for my friend Laura's wedding. I'm sorry dear. I'm glad I didn't do anything ridiculous though! Even if I had, there were enough drunk people there, that my shenanigans would've gone unnoticed. The best man passed out sitting up, so I think I'm golden over here. <br /><br />Speaking of saucin it up, that was one of the last times I drank. I haven't had a sip of alcohol all of 2009! Wow; it's going by so fast. We're already half way through with this year. Very weird to think about actually. I wish I had enough time to get all of the things accomplished that I intended to for this year. I guess I still have 6 months, huh...<br /><br />Have a great weekend homies & homettes,<br />Jenna Michelle :)jennamichellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10020712819765425575noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5332626351933813441.post-89813300149468034032009-06-25T22:43:00.001-07:002009-06-26T16:24:25.495-07:00Hurry up!My new blogger friend <a href=http://humblyhappening.blogspot.com>Melisa</a> is having a giveaway at her absolutely adorable blog <a href="http://humblyhappening.blogspot.com/2009/06/humble-happenings-giveaway.html">Humble Happenings!</a> Hurry up & enter (all you have to do is leave a comment!) to win the following loot...<br /><center><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v374/melisasaid/DESIGN%20PHASE%20III/?action=view¤t=001-2.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v374/melisasaid/DESIGN%20PHASE%20III/001-2.jpg" border="0" width="389" height="481"alt="Photobucket"></a></center><br />The giveaway ends June 30th!
