Man, December is kicking my ass. Partly because I’ve been getting ready for Christmas, but also because of the weather. Granted, I live in Texas where it doesn’t get extremely cold.. but here the weather flip flops so much that I guess my body gets confused and eventually goes into some kind of shut down mode. One day it’s freezing, the next it’s sunny and hot as hell. I hate it. Grrr.Anyways, I’ve been really busy getting ready for Christmas. For those of you who have children, you know what a task that can be. We got the tree up about 5-6 days after Thanksgiving and I’ve got tons of presents wrapped. I’m almost completely done with my Christmas shopping, I just have a couple of more items to get and that’s it. Yay. It will be a relief when I’m finished.

Also, new layout.. kinda. I didn’t really change the layout as much as the colors and the graphics and stuff. I just wasn’t ready to get rid of this. I love the way it’s set up, so I just winterized it a little bit. It suits me. I’m going to work on some Christmas smilies this weekend if I have time. The plain yellow is not my favorite. :(

Well, I have a lot of comments to return, so I think I’ll get on that.

Oh yea, I have been saying that I was making new brushes for weeks. Well, I finally did this morning. :)

Your brushes look great, good work! I like the new theme too. I prefer this weather to that in California though heh. At least the temperature is somewhat regular and not too cold right now even that weird day when everything froze. Our temperature here were still higher than what my parents had haha.

Thanks Julie.

The temp in Texas seems to always be higher than anywhere else (except maybe AZ in the summer). Or maybe it just seems that way to me? I mean I’d love for it to snow, once or twice. But I guess we are kinda lucky that it’s not really extreme. :P

Yes we are lucky it’s not extreme. Though up in Amarillo I’m sure it’s snowing heh. I love your little gifty thing at the top though. Looks a lot like the facebook applications that everyone is crazy over (including me) right now.

Thanks Dawn!

Blue is one of my favorite colors. :)

I am trying.. it gets tiring, but it’s all worth it in the end. That’s what’s important.

Hope you and yours have a wonderful Holiday, too.

ohh, i love your brushes. keep up the gj!

aww, that sucks abt the weather. i hate when it gets unpredictable but considering where i live, hah, unpredictable is the last thing on the agenda. no, instead it’s like a fricking heatwave 365 days of the year.. blah.

but hey, it’s xmas! so thats lightened my spirit a bit lol. XD you sound rlly busy! o_o and you’ve already got your christmas shopping done! eep. ive hardly started.. but i break up from school this thursday so i guess i can spend the weekend doing what needs to be done in preparation for xmas. :D

Thanks. I enjoy making the brushes, even though they are really nothing overly special. My son got me in the brush making mood when he brought me some leaves he found outside and said Mommy wouldn’t these make good photoshop brushes? (My child is destined to be a nerd).

The weather here is pretty warm most of the year, but around December and January it gets a bit weird.

Yes, I am done with my shopping for the most part. Just a few things here and there that I still need to get. Good luck with your shopping. Happy Holidays!

I like the christmasness in your layout, I love how it’s not overly flashy like some layouts I’ve seen, lol. The jack skellington and holly brushes are my absolute fave, nice job :D

Thanks Emily. I like simplicity. I also like monochromatic. (If you can’t tell.) It’s so pleasing to look at, in my opinion. :)

Meep, everyone’s feeling tired lately. :( I’m missing work today because I feel sick, it’s been raining so much, like it does around this time every year. There is not one Christmas where it doesn’t rain. <_<
Love the Jack brushes! ♥

Omg, Arizona is the same way with the weather. It was gloomy, freezing and raining the last few days and now it’s all sunny out, WTF!? I’m really exhausted with the thought of shopping and I’ve barely even done any yet. Christmas is a hectic time of year, that’s how it always is. I downloaded your brushes, very cute, nice work hun!

Yeah, Christmas is so hectic.. and sometimes people forget to stop and actually ENJOY the holiday cause they are so busy. Hopefully you aren’t too busy to enjoy it. I love it mostly because I’m a mom, and moms are supposed to love Christmas, aren’t they? lol.. I mean when I didn’t have a child I wasn’t really that into it. But now I get to do all this wonderful toy shopping.

Thanks for the compliment on the brushes. I’m about to start making more Christmas brushes tonight. :)

I like your new layout. It suits the season. I also happen to like blue as one of my favorite colors.

I never knew it could be cold in Texas. It’s nice to know. At least the weather stays constantly cold where I live at this time of year. Only when it’s fall or spring does the temperature vacillate.

Those are some pretty cool brushes. I especially like the butterflies and crosses.

Thanks, Sue. Yes, it actually does get cold in Texas sometimes. This morning it was 31 degrees. I was not thrilled.

Hehe, I like that present.. thing. module? haha

I def. understand how flip-floppy whether could mess with someone, but I think I would love it. It’s like everyday is a surprise, a new season. lol

Yeah, PHP includes does seem easy but all of mypage change, and usually don’t have anything in common… I dunno… I might convert to PHP.. maybe, just because you did remind me of how easy it is lol.

Well, if all your pages are different, then there’s really no need to convert unless you really want to. I only suggested that because if your pages are all the same, it’s alot easier. :)

Oh the weather has been crazy over here too. It’s hot one day and the next day it’s cold. I’ve gotten used to it I think. Oh Christmas with kids must be lovely, stressful but lovely.

I love the new layout. The header is so so cute! I think it looks great. Your brushes and LJ icons look great too. Great job!

Oh and I tagged you, but I just saw that you’ve been tagged in your previous entry. :(

Yep, now I have strep throat I think. I’m getting sick of this weather. :(

I have done a little bit more shopping last week and I’m done. I’m not particularly fond of being completely broke lol

Man, I’m not fond of being broke either. It always seems that I am though, around this time of year. :(

I live in Iowa and the weather is so crappy almost all of the time here. It sucks. In the summer the humidity is so bad you feel like your going to have a heat stroke and the weather winter is so extreme its a wonder people arent dropping dead around here. =x You have an amazing site. Alot of good content, stuff that I havent already seen around the web. Good luck with finishing up the rest of your xmas shopping, it can be a hastle the closer it gets to xmas.

I haven’t done a damn thing for xmas this year. Partly because my son is only 3 yrs old and doesn’t know the difference and mainly because I have NO money. But I hope you have a great xmas. =) Happy Holidays!!

So I stumbled across your site by looking up usernames on DJ, and I’m glad I did because I love these brushes! I downloaded the Christmas ones for now, but I’ll definitely come back for more later. They’re lovely. Merry Christmas!

Your brushes are great!
The weather is awful here too, one day it is almost snowing and the other day it is sunny and quite hot…
