there is an animal theme

olive's name is flista this afternoon.  her baby's name is tablisa.  (tuh-bleesa).  she works at a necklace store.  this guy comes into her store all the time and annoys her.  his name is jeek gluss.  he is so annoying.  his sister is so annoying.  his mother is annoying.  his father is annoying.  she had to leave her job at this store because of these people.  she just had to get away from them.  what they did that was annoying, was that they would come up to her all day and ask her get them things and do things for them.  she just couldn't take it anymore.  

she has a new job now.  she goes to school and studies, and she gets money for it.  the name of her school is called 'great.'  and her teacher's name is ms. beatles.  

what we did on sunday....

boxed ourselves up.

box box!

adding the white for the belly fur was my favorite part i think.....

hers i predict was the tail. 

girl time felting.  it's a serious amount of work.  olive isn't so into it.  when zhi and i are in the right mood, we are!  

these came from these kits, that their mimi grandma gave them.  

we have a lot of kangaroo energy happening around here.  

he has a plastic one.  he loves those plastic animals.  they've pretty much always been his favorite toy.  animals.  the plastic ones.  

stretch break.  

 i have one on my hat...

i like the wooden animals.  this mama and joey pair we've had for a long time now.  they are on our mantle at the moments.  with a dark beer.  hmmm.  in a glass that once belonged to david's dad's parents.  then belonged to david's parents.  and now, belong to the kangaroo family.   we've had them for a long time, but i'm all sentimental in a newly fresh way now.  ouch.  but kind-of good.  yes.  definitely good.  uuuuugh.  heart.  heart break.  begin again.  

i've been lent some really nice books in the past few days.  such nice people in this world.  1 on grief.  one on a woman's relationship with her grandfather, even after death.  one on daily coyote.  i got my free martha stewart subscription in the mail yesterday.  for buying a new singer iron, it came with that.  it kind-of relaxes me sometimes to stare at the clean homes in her magazines.  aaaah.  a daydream is nice.  ha.  we've been watching some funny shows.  the life and times of tim.  bored to death.  the office  again.  sometimes arrested development.  .....

well.  

one last note.  max tonight, told me he wants me to go to law school like my sister.  i said, oh, well, wow.  not sure that's gonna happen, but why?  because i want you to be a policewoman, he says.  wow!!   i will enforce!  i've been enforcing with him today quite a bit, pretty intense policewoman i've been around these parts.  he's impressed i think!  wants me to be a professional. heh.
