I Craft My Pants

You've probably noticed something different about the page. My absence for one. Lol! Just kidding. You're probably used to that by now. One thing that's different is wedding talk. Wedding? That's right, lovelies! The Unwed Husband finally decided to make an honest woman out of me. He proposed in the first hour of New Year's Day. We had a family get together. His original plan was that he'd propose 13 seconds (13 is my favorite number) until midnight, but I was way too frazzled so he waited. There I was, everyone had left and I served myself a heaping plate of BBQ and took a breather while complaining to him and watching a "Happy Endings" marathon on VH1. He told me, I noticed you were really stressed. It sucks because I didn't get to do what I wanted to do. Me, being unsuspecting forked more fajita into my mouth and asked him, "what did you wanna do?" He then got down on one knee looked at me and brought out a ring. I panicked and started yelling "OMG! OMG!" then proceeded to hand him my plate out of shock." Thankfully, he took it and put the ring on my finger. And now I'm an almost not Unwed Housewife.

Another thing you've probably noticed is my extra long absence. It's been longer than usual. Here's where the not so happy news comes in. I will always be candid about myself. I will also always be extremely open about mental health because I feel like it has this stigma surrounding it that needs to be broken down. I've been going through a large bought of depression and crippling panic attacks. Both are so bad that I'm in physical pain. I went to see someone professionally and was diagnosed with Bipolar II. I can finally say that I'm certifiably insane. Ha! Okay, not that funny, but humor is my coping mechanism. I'm controlling everything with meds right now, but I'm still dealing with some inner demons. Apparently, bipolar is the new chic illness to have so I'm pretty lucky that I'm "in" this season. It's okay. You can be jealous.

Now for the final thing I'm sure you've noticed. I'm whoring out my crafting skills, or at least attempting to. I'm failing pretty badly at it actually. See, I'm in a bit of a financial rut and I'm hoping to use my skills to make a side living. That being said, please look at the stuff below. There's something for everyone and it's all hand painted or sculpted and painted by me. I take Paypal and will ship to you. Shipping is included in the fee.
