My Christmas shopping is almost done.
If you are all totally "What the hell do I get my mom?" If your mom is like my mom, it's this jacket.

I'm having artist's block about what to make for Christmas cards this year. Those scrapbookers sure have a leg up in the card department over us fine artists. All those rubber stamps and calligraphy and free time. I should have bought a letterpress. Next purchase, a letterpress.

is that like a flower press? Where you go out and find letters in the wild and then squish them between to bits of cardboard with bricks on top?

Hi,

My name is Emma.

I meant to tell you I really liked your art work! I would expect nothing less from John's wife of course.

Best wishes!

Thank you.

I think John's the wife.

Does that mean he gets to wear the fabulous dresses?

He can do whatever he wants.

Now that you are married, you need to create a "Honey Do" list. He can do whatever he wants after he finishes whatever you put on the list.

But in your case, I would recommend a "Honey do NOT" list like "Honey do not do anything that will end in bleeding all over the furniture."

I doubt that either one of us got married so that we would be told what to do.

"Honey do not do anything that will end in bleeding all over the furniture."

Dude. I've been on my period since August. It would be so lame of me to try to impose a rule on others that I cannot follow myself.

The problem with the honey-do list is that I'd write one, too.
It would say:
SHOES???!?!?!????

and that'd keep her so busy I could do anything I wanted.
