I'm back...well, maybe
I keep thinking about the reasons I don't update my blog and I keep coming back to one reason...I'm lazy. With school starting Monday I'm excited to think that just maybe I'll get back to blogging. Last night I went with BA to a coupon class and I am inspired to start saving some money. My husband of course laughed at me since this is a phase I seem to go through every few months. I am a woman on a mission and open to any and all suggestions as to how to do it.

The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2- What I create will be just for you.
3- It'll be done this year.
4- You have no clue what it's going to be. It may be a story. It may be photography or an article on properly cleaning your face before a masque. I may sew or paint something. I may bake you something and mail it to you. Who knows? Not you, that's for sure!
5- I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.
The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must repost this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. The first 5 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they did win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me! Oh, and be sure to post a picture of what you win when you get it!}

I've Fallen and I Can't Get Up!
At least the title reflects how I feel about the whole blogging experience. I have become too lazy to upload pictures and too tired to figure out something creative to write and so here I find myself days between posts and the sad thing it is going to stay that way for a while. I do however want to answer a question that I have had a lot of people asked me. The Santa that came to my house for Christmas was actually my daddy.
When I was young my mom made him that beautiful suit and each Christmas I had the opportunity to be his elf while we visited friends and sometimes people who just needed to be cheered up. My name was Killarny. My dad is very proud of his Irish heritage and he wanted me to reflect that. The standard line he'd use when he would introduce me to people was, "and this is Killarny, we call her that because when she's bad we "kill" "arny". Kind of a morbid joke for Santa but then, you'd have to know my father. He sang me very interesting songs growing up and when I find myself singing them once in a while and my children will laugh and say, "that explains a lot about you mom."
So, the truly best part about my Christmas was that my daddy took the time to come to my home and play Santa to my children and for a brief moment when I sat on his lap I could remember when my mom made that suit and how wonderful our Christmas' were.
