Binder cost? What?

Ok...I know that we are/were in a recession but come on. I went to get a large binder from Walmart that I could house all my essential items for school. My binder includes one copy of each thing that I have had to make a copy of this year and will need again next year. Everything is in sheet protectors and under a certain label. Anywhoo...back to the point...I about died of shock when I saw that the large binder was $15.00! Shut your face...I know...I am not even kidding either. How much could they really cost to make? I bought it though... Let me tell you if one of my kids touches that $15.00 binder, I might freak!

Choices, Choices, and More Choices...

So my crackberry is dying on me. All the good times between us. The camera decide to quit working today and so did the lights on the keypad. No calling anyone in the dark now! Luckily, my contract runs out in two weeks and so I am eligible for a new phone. That is where y'all come in. I have loved my crackberry from day one but am wondering should I try something new. I have never had a touch screen and am a little hesitant! I have Verizon and need to look at my options. What kind do you have? Do you love it? These are a few I have my eye on:

My original phone

HTC Ozone

Droid Eris

Palm Pixi Plus

Any advice?

Some Great Finds this Weekend!

Pillowcase Dress

****S0LD****
**Michelle, please email me at gmcobia@yahoo.com. **
I just finished my first pillowcase dress and I love it. Since it is my first I am selling it for $5.00. It is a size 5T-6T. More to come. 

Finished and Loving Them!

Bad Blogger and My Bday!

I have been such a lousy blogger lately. It has to b e the funk I am in or the weather. Today was the first day I have seen sunshine in I don't know how long! Anywhoo...Today I turned the BIG 2-5!

We celebrated my birthday with my family and friends. All 17 of us sat at a large table at Carabba's. The bestest (like Junie B. would say) restaurant ever. 

*Pause*

I am frantically trying to find my camera-help!
*Found it in my purse! Who woulda thunk it?*
It was a great night...

Me and the voice of Gamecocks football. 

"The father" had the cake decorator write "To the daughter" since I refer to my self on the blog as "The Wife". He thinks he is funny...

My Othermama also made these wonderful cupcakes!

Love my Spode bake ware that my MIL gave me.

Since my brother couldn't make it because of the Air Force I brought him along with me. We have never spent a birthday apart and this wasn't going to be the first one!

I tried to do a poof, not as bis as Snookie's and this is all I got...

How sad is this... the place we were had a lobster claw machine. It is similar to trying to use a claw and grab a stuffed animal out of the machine but instead of stuffed animals it was lobsters. Sad day...

Doppleganger or Something...

So I keep seeing on facebook that it is Doppleganger week or something like that. Supposedly you change your profile picture to a celebrity that you have been told you look like. Well, what do you do if you have never been told you look like someone. *That would be me* I don't think I look like anyone except my parents. Anywhoo...I went to My Heritage and upload this picture from the 100th day of school (with my new dark hair)

and this is who they think I look like:

Um... you might be wondering the same thing I am...WHAT? The only similarities I see are that we are all females with dark hair.
