New year = new experiences, like having a tooth pulled...yay...

It had to be done, the molar broke on Christmas Eve but thankfully didn't hurt unless something hot or cold touched it, that made taking my pills a little awkward. I've always had weak teeth, when I was young I could never seem to leave the dentist without having to return for a filling. But I'll tell you, my jaw did not want to give up the tooth, I don't know how long it usually takes to remove one, but the dentist was working hard at it for over half an hour.

It's been a week now and I'm a little concerned that hole might be infected. I see the dentist again next Wednesday so until then I'm just going to frequently rinse with Listerine and hope that fixes the problem.

Now onto some awesome! I received a care package from Shuffles ^____^ It gave me such happy feet! Kiba [my new laptop] like Toboe only has two USB ports, but now, thanks to Shuffles I have 5!

5 in style!

When the sound is turned on it makes the Tardis noise whenever you plug a device into it ^_^

Max [my toxic mold] thinks the Tardis makes a lovely home!

I like that he covers up the very bright LED light ^_~

And finally here's a recent picture of my current cross stitch.

Sorry to leap in unannounced, but wow, that cross-stitch! Do you do cross-stitch from photos or something? Do you take commissions?

I have, actually! (I found you on "latest things", btw, in case you were wondering).

I was married in October 2010, and for our first anniversary last year (paper) I commissioned a coloured pencil drawing taken from one of our wedding photos (which is absolutely lovely - turned out really well). My husband was delighted with it.

Next year is cotton, and I've been pondering it, but I've been at a bit of a loss. I mean...knickers, or what? ;-) However, when I saw your cross-stitch, inspiration struck! A cross-stitch piece taken from another photo would be brilliant, either to frame or to make into a cushion or whatever.

Obviously I wouldn't need it until October of this year, which I assume would give you plenty of time? Would you like to PM me so we can discuss prices and whatever? I know quoting is a nightmare if you're not used to it, but I'd want to pay you a fair price for your work, and since I'm a freelancer myself we should be able to work out between us what would be fair.

And now I've looked at your album I can't decide what would be better - another wedding photo or a pic of our cat! You're very talented :)
