Not even close


I finally made my Mom's shirts - using iron-on transfers. This is my first time using them & the first shirt worked but doesnt' look great. The instructions say to leave about a 1/2 of an inch around the edge of the picture but it is really noticeable on the shirt because I did it on a light blue shirt. Lame. The white shirt one turned out much butter because I also trimmed it much closer to the picture. Oh well. Hopefully Mom will love them anyways. My ultimate goal is to make her cry - you know it's a really good gift when she starts weeping like a baby. I also purchased country music on iTunes. I made my Mom & my Auntie Mary country/Christmas compilations. Yes, it's Dec. 29 but this is what happens when you don't celebrate Christmas on Christmas. Anyways, I have a crapload still to do before I leave because I have spent most of my free time this week napping or playing video games. I am in a pickle, once again. If only I could afford a Sven - and if you haven't seen the commercial please keep an eye out for it. It's pretty funny, and the Sven sweater looks real cozy.
