Thank you to [profile] oracleholly for the sweet e-card, and thank you to [personal profile] sandy_s for the lovely package!! I loved everything hon. Especially the Candy Apple hand soap (smells so yummy!), and the Chicken Poop lip balm (contains no actual poop). :P  *squishes you* I mailed your's out on Wed. so you should get it any day now.

I had a lovely Christmas, loads of fun, but it has wiped me out! We had the family Christmas eve party, then we had gift opening at the in-laws, we didn't get home until after midnight. Then Christmas morning, I got up, began cooking our contribution to the Christmas potluck at my Mom's. We traveled to visit my Mom, then we came home and hubby, baby dogs, and I opened our gifts to each other. Whew!

The day after Christmas I hit the stores for the marked down Christmas decorations. I decided this year to change my theme from primitive wooden (lots of snowmen), and rusted Christmas ornaments and decor - to silver, white, and crystal ornaments and decor (lots of snowflakes). The bug to change things out was so bad, I acutally removed all my decorations off of my tree and began adding new ornaments as I picked them up on sale here and there. So, I'm the dork who decorated their tree twice and progessively at that. *facepalm* At least I've got plenty of shiny new ornaments for next year. I even picked up a new tree skirt and stockings for me, hubby, and the baby dogs that fit the new theme, and all of it was 50% off, so yay!

Then yesterday I wanted to take it all down. So I took down all my Christmas decor and then just to wear myself out a bit more - tackled moving my furniture in my living room for no good reason. Hubby thinks I'm crazy. I think he's right. I don't know how long I'll leave it like it is, I caught myself measuring furniture pieces vs. spaces again this morning. That's a sure sign that I'm not completely content with the current arrangement. Oh joy.

I had hoped that I'd feel like making a New Year's icon set, but it's not happening. I'm too tapped out to concentrate right now. I'm doing well to post coherent thoughts at this point. Hopefully, after the New Year, things will settle down and I'll be able to recharge properly. I think I've been slightly off my game since I was sick in November, then with the holidays coming so close together, I've not really had time to regroup. I think that is going to be my first priority in the New Year. I'm going to give myself permission to relax, and make the time to do it. No projects, no insane domestic goddess bruhaha. *nods*

Before I go and contemplate being a vegetable. Here's a meme I snorfled from [personal profile] angstchic .

Thank you [personal profile] ladyforash, for the lovely Christmas card. The winter scene on the front is breathtaking!

Thank you [profile] rikki_oko for the fabulous package!! *squee* I love, love, love everything!! I'm still petting my Amazon GC. I freaking love shopping on Amazon. *flails* You also did a great job picking out the adorable doggie scrapbooking stuff! I'll have so much fun making up a book of my baby dogs. Heaven knows I've got plenty of their pictures. :P Thanks again for being such a wonderful friend. Love you bunches! *glomps*

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Midland

"You have a Midland accent" is just another way of saying "you don't have an accent." You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio.

The South
The Inland North
The West
North Central
The Northeast

I've been in one of those dangerous shopping moods the past couple of weeks. It never fails. With the change of seasons comes the manic desire for new clothes and shoes. So I'm pretty much left in the mode of "I have no money, but I sure look cute!" :P

I managed to get tons of domestic goddess duties accomplished last weekend. Sorted through all my clothing and ended up with a huge pile that will go to the yard sale. I also went through all our files and culled out old paperwork to make room for the new. Once I had all that room, I was finally able to file a stack of papers/receipts away. 

This weeks project will be to go through the fridge and deep freezer and toss out anything that might be past it's prime. My life is so full of these bold and daring adventures. :P

Oh, must go...Lost is about to start!! Wheeee!

What Your Bathroom Habits Say About You

You are a very considerate person, but that doesn't mean you let people walk all over you.

Your look is put together, classic, and stylish. You always look fashionable without trying.

You have the perfect blend of confidence and class. You're proud of who you are - but you don't broadcast it.

In relationships, you tend to be very romantic and demanding. You'll treat your partner like gold, but you expect a lot in return.


Lol, this was a cute meme. I had to laugh at the icon in it....the girl on the toilet with her laptop. That is scarily accurate for many of us here on LJ, I'm sure. ;) The silliest place I've every tried to us my laptop was putting it on a bed tray on the floor next to my bathtub when I was taking a bubble bath. I've already got a TV in my bathroom, but apparently that still wasn't enough. Sad, but true! :P

Has anyone heard from [profile] spikeskat? I hope that everything is ok with her. *worries* 

Work seriously kicked my boo-tay today. I'm one tired chicka! I intend to be a vegetable for the remainder of the evening so that I can muster going back into the fray tomorrow. Sadly, I must give up a day off due to work load. Wah. ;)

You Are Iris

You are an interesting blend of fun and wisdom.
You definitely make people think about themselves and their place in the world.
But they'll have fun doing it. You definitely epitomize laughter therapy.
You are a very enriching and entertaining friend!


I also have a couple of birthday wishes!

Happy Birthday!!

Hello flist! I hope everyone is having a nice evening. :)

Things have been very "run of the mill" around here. Today was mostly a mix of domestic goddess duties....dishes, laundry, etc. and messing around with my LJ layout, yet again. I can be an obsessive tweaker when it comes to my LJ, and my icon site. That would be great if I didn't suck at html, but since I do....it usually equals lots of time playing with code using the universal "trial and error" mode. *sigh* I think I finally like it ok now, but we'll see. Everytime I've changed it lately, the shiny wears off so darn quick. Wah. :P

I recently visited a new stylist, and love the results! I've known her forever, but always had another stylist to go to. Through a course of circumstances I ended up needing a new stylist, and decided to give her a try. She did a great job with my highlights and cut. I've missed my highlights so very much, but I had to give my hair a break from them. I kept the length, but she added tons of layers, and I love how light it is! Wheee! 

The super hot weather has finally left us, thankfully. We're still in the 80's but it sure beats the heck out of upper 90's and low 100's. I've never been so ready for fall as I am this year. Bring on the cool weather and the turning leaves!

I'm planning on working on a set of X-files icons for my next set, since that theme did very well in the poll right after Harry Potter. I loved the X-files back in the day, even though I didn't watch it religiously. I was a complete Mulder/Scully shipper too, oh the tortuous UST that was imposed upon us relentlessly! *swoon* :P I bought my first DVD set, Season 3, a few weeks ago, and I'm thinking of treating myself to a X-files marathon this weekend. Plus, I can justify it as inspiration and research for my icon set, right? :D

I hope everyone has a wonderful Labor Day weekend! That extra day off, can only be a good thing in my book! *hugs and loves flist*

I've been tagged by [profile] julielu, so here goes. :)

Explain your livejournal name and its meaning. When you're done, tag as many people as there are letters in your name. 

Not too exciting, but here goes! I began using eyesthatslay when I first came into the BtVS fandom. I wanted "slay" somewhere in my name to allude to The Slayer, and I wanted something to do with "eyes", as I think they are the windows the soul, and show so much of a person. So I came up with "eyesthatslay". Which is good and all that, but you'd be surprised how many people misspell it as "eyesthatlay" which sounds so lame. (i.e. old indian word for eyes-that-got-tired-and-had-to-rest) :P

I hereby tag everyone on my flist that hasn't done this meme. You can even post here, and tell your name stories...I'd love to hear them! :)

Ok, so you've all seen this song meme going around right? Well, then those that are tagged make these insightful song choices, with detailed explanations about what each song means to them, yada, yada...

I've been tagged, but don't look for insight here people, because when it comes to having my finger on the pulse of the music scene? I clearly suck. :P

The first time I was tagged, by [livejournal.com profile] julielu, I tried to slip my responses in unnoticed gracefully by placing them in her LJ in a comment. There by concealing my supreme dorkiness from the masses. Thought I was smart, I did. She in her sweet way, said in reply to my bizarre choices - "Okay, you know this only adds to your aura, don't you?". I was comforted, I shared my inner dork in her LJ and was accepted for it. I was safe. Yeah, right. :P

I've now, however, been tagged for the same meme again by [livejournal.com profile] wiccalyns. There is obviously no escape from embarassing myself. *facepalm*

So, here...verbatim......is the suckiest song meme response in history.

Song Meme:
List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your livejournal along with your seven songs. Then tag four other people to see what they're listening to.

Originally posted in [livejournal.com profile] julielu's LJ:

Omg! You're going to laugh, but I'm like the worst person in the world to do a song meme. I don't keep up with the current music scene, and tend to hum things like Jingle Bells, and Disney songs. . I'll just put my lame answers here, to avoid embarrassing myself in my LJ, .

1. O' Holy Night - it always touches my heart.
2. So This Is Love - I just watched Cinderella the other day and this is stuck in my head!
3. Molly's Chamber - Kings of Leon
4. Bonanza Theme - Don't ask...I hum it all the time, and I never even watched the show.
5. Various Goldfrapp tunes
6. Open Arms - Journey
7. Don't Bring Me Down - ELO

Hee.



Yeah! Top that! *false bravado*

I just finished and posted the biggest batch of icons I've done yet. Now, hopefully, I'll be able to make myself do all that other stuff that I should be doing. ;)

I've got to make up a Christmas shopping list for tomorrow, and get my domestic goddess duties underway.

LJ shouldn't be so fun and addictive. So there. :P

That said....I had to do a couple of memes I snagged from [livejournal.com profile] hollydb, & [livejournal.com profile] momentsintime.
