The Pink Hamster: The Saga Continues......
http://www.thepinkhamster.com/2015/05/the-saga-continues.html
Monday, May 18, 2015. And the saga continues! At 5 am MrB woke up and poked me and said "I am afraid we can't make it to your brothers house by 6". This was happening, in spite of the pink hair and the condition of my house. The inner El asked the outer El. Its nothing, hurry up" the outer El responded. But the inner El was obtuse and insisted on standing there and staring at the nozzle in my hand. It was green, why is the nozzle green? I have to use the bathroom RIGHT NOW" I shouted. Then you have not e...

The Pink Hamster: Car Seat Recover
http://www.thepinkhamster.com/2012/06/many-of-you-have-seen-these-pictures.html
Monday, June 18, 2012. Many of you have seen these pictures before. However some of you may not have. Therefore I think it only fitting that I do a post on this tutorial, directing you to the tutorial that I used. This is not a tutorial, just some more sand in your backbone to assure you that you can also create this gorgeous (seemingly) brand new car seat. But anyway, you did not come to read my life story so here you go. First of all I found the easiest to understand tutorial here. Here is the during p...

The Pink Hamster: Preparing to Trip...
http://www.thepinkhamster.com/2015/05/preparing-to-trip.html
Sunday, May 17, 2015. You know how you make these plans, and you decide to do something and then you try hard to make that everything falls into place so that "The Plan" will work? Well do you also know what happens when "The Plan" refuses to happen no matter your best intentions? Tuesday came and I felt like it was far too soon to actually clean for the trip, so I didn't. I spent a very calm and relaxed day doing who knows what. Just a niggle. Not an outright clamoring. Of course I was noble and went sh...

The Pink Hamster: Commuting Moms and Scattered Thoughts
http://www.thepinkhamster.com/2015/02/commuting-moms-and-scattered-thoughts.html
Tuesday, February 17, 2015. Commuting Moms and Scattered Thoughts. Waiting in my inbox this morning was an email from a popular Dr. He just wanted me to know that he has 99 "healthy" crockpot recipes that I "WILL" love. (that was of course written as I read it) 99 recipes? And they are healthy you say? And you say I WILL love them? Road rage and assumptions, you gotta see where I am going with this. February 17, 2015 at 7:14 PM. Welcome back to the blogging world! February 18, 2015 at 4:31 AM. Http:/ www...

The Pink Hamster: Shabby French Script Lamp Shade Tutorial
http://www.thepinkhamster.com/2012/06/shabby-french-script-lamp-shade.html
Monday, June 18, 2012. Shabby French Script Lamp Shade Tutorial. I can not believe I actually scratched up a tutorial to post! Ok, to be fair, its not as much of a tutorial as much as it is a billion and ten pictures uploaded to (probably) befuddle you further. I shall proceed with a word of caution. *blank voice talking too fast starts here* "Iwillnotberesponsibleforburnedextremities,hotgluedkids,ruinedtowels,oranythingelsethatcouldpossiblygowrong". And a bit of lace or the trimmings of your desire.

The Pink Hamster: Post Baby Clarity
http://www.thepinkhamster.com/2012/09/my-days-are-broken-up-in-little.html
Sunday, September 23, 2012. My days are broken up in little segments of odd moments. I wake up listening for the children. It is the moments that I break out of the fog of my day, that are so truly hilarious. Sometimes they are disconcerting, sometimes inexplicable. Most times the thought races through my head, "am I crazy, or normal? Here are just a few of such moments. I am not this size! So I hold them up and I turn them this way and that. These are ginermous! Why don't they fit? Its like climbing a m...

The Pink Hamster: Kindle Cover
http://www.thepinkhamster.com/2012/06/kindle-cover.html
Wednesday, June 13, 2012. When I bought my Kindle, I received a $40. rebate with it. So I waited (anxiously) until the rebate card came in the mail, then headed off to buy my kindle a cover. I knew what I wanted. I wanted something light weight. I did not really care how it looked. This is what I found. A plain black, extremely lightweight cover. With a leather front. I modged podged this blah cover into a delightful bit of art. These pages come from Romantic Homes Magazine. Go podge that modge! Http:/ w...

The Pink Hamster: Here a little, there a little.. are we done yet?
http://www.thepinkhamster.com/2013/10/here-little-there-little-are-we-done-yet.html
Thursday, October 17, 2013. Here a little, there a little. are we done yet? My Oct praise report resounds loudly with delight for our curriculum that we have chosen to do this year, (and will probably choose for the rest of our homeschooling career) My children are happy. They are not overwhelmed and they are loving to learn. I heard my 3 yr old who is in Kindergarten (I say that very loosely, the child needed something to do) trill happily "oh I just love school, its my very best thing" she sang. I used...

The Pink Hamster: Drying Rose Petals
http://www.thepinkhamster.com/2012/06/i-love-fresh-flowers.html
Tuesday, June 12, 2012. I love fresh flowers. Maybe too much. Maybe so much that I sometimes buy myself a dozen from the grocery vendor. (The grocery vendor sounds so much better then the walmart fridge). The problem is; they always get old and die. Yes I understand how life works, but when I buy flowers I like them to last at least awhile. So I researched a bit and I discovered the key to gorgeous fresh colored rose petals, dried to a perfect crisp perfection. See how sad these are? Or you could put the...
