RANDOM TUESDAY THOUGHTS - WARNING THIS POST CONTAINS REFERENCES TO STRIPPERS AND NUDITY
2:06 PM Ramblings of Christina - Rant Rave Roll
And look at that.... you are still reading. I guess I know what kind of readers I have now. The best kind!
It's Tuesday and Stacy is supporting our habit. So let's rock the rebellion and get our random on!

- I've been super busy making holiday crafts, decorations, wreaths and just about anything else you can think of this past week. I have paper, ribbon, glue, and glitter everywhere. I use the super fine "fairy dust" glitter for some things so when I say it is everywhere... I mean everywhere. It looks like one of us has been spending a lot of time at the nudie bar or is moonlighting on a pole.
- My decorating is at a stand still as far as our tree is concerned. We picked out a fabulous Nobel Fir last week. However, we seem to be missing a bin of Christmas decorations. Specifically, the tree lights and most of my snowman collection. I refuse to buy new lights as we already have three bins of lights. Icicles lights, snowflake lights, multi-colored lights, white lights, blue lights, and LED only lights. Looks like it back to the garage to look around. In the meantime, cover your eyes.... it's a naked tree!
- My daughter is reading too fast. I never thought I would ever say those words. She was never a reader. She got hooked on Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment by James Patterson. She flee through book one and two. I ordered book three and four online. She read them both, plus book five last week. Now I need to order six and seven, which is the final book in the series. Now I just need suggestions on what to give her next. She is a bit of a picky reader.
- I went to the grocery store solo over the weekend. Always a lot quicker and cheaper when I go alone. On the way home I passed a office park. Mostly doctor's offices so the parking lot was empty. Except for the huge flock of birds that was covering the parking lot and all the grassy areas surround the complex.

| So I did what anyone would do, I honked at them |
- We went to Hobby Lobby over the weekend to pick up some stripper glitter and glue sticks for my hot glue gun. We were also looking for an affordable small tree for the front porch. We browsed around for a bit. We never found a tree. Instead Keith bought me a 101 piece Wilton Decorating Kit. Let's just call it an early Christmas gift. I'm in decorating heaven. No more store bought cakes and cupcakes for us.

I LOVE glitter. I am so far behind on Christmas, I could cry! I wish I had the skills that required that cake decorating kit. That is awesome.

Oooh, I love that tree! It is going to be fabulous once dressed!
Has your daughter read all 3 of the Rick Riordan series? How about the Mysterious Benedict Society series? I had a friend whose daughter read the Clockwork Three and it was her new fave.

We only recently got a Hobby Lobby and I would spend WAY too much money in there, I know it.
