So this week I had my wisdom teeth taken out! OUCH! Going into it I expected lots of pain and a chipmunk face. Well it didn't turn out that way. The day I had them removed I was hardly puffy at all and the next day I looked completely normal again! Happy days for Hallie! Though I didn't swell it still hurt a little. The first two days I couldn't open my mouth very far at all but by Monday, which was four days later, I was able to open my mouth almost completely. Today I can open my mouth all the way but there is still some painful pressure in the four corners of my mouth. It is also painful to smile too much, which is a sad thing for me because my family and friends love to make me smile. I'm told often that I don't smile enough and always look down. Well excuse me for not knowing that I had to smile 24/7. =P
So this week I've been deciding what I want to make. I'm the sort of person who doesn't like throwing things away when I think they could be turned into something pretty. Lately I've been holding onto toilet paper tubes. Last night I came up with the idea to make a bracelet out of a few tubes. I haven't completed it yet but when I do I will take some pictures and get 'em on here!
I hope everyone is having a great 2012 so far!
PS if you haven't visited Ollie on Facebook or his blog, please do so! He could really use a smile right now!
Happy Crafting!!!!

A New Year and A New Life
Do you ever get so busy that you just want to pull out all your hair and just tell the world to fall down a well? Well that is exactly how my last few weeks have been. But I'm starting over anew with New Year's resolutions and dreams of success. So here I go. I'm starting over.
So one of my resolutions is to post on my blog at least once a week. I feel like I'm going to have the most difficult time with this one because when I write I don't just write. I write, then rewrite, and rewrite again. Yeah, you could call my a bit of a perfectionist, or maybe I'm just a little obsessive. So when I post it takes me at least an hour to post one thing.
But anyway, my goal is to post at least once a week. Another goal I have is to make at least one bracelet a week. I'll be starting this feat with all the orders I have lined up by family members. Unfortunately for me a lot of these are the same bracelets that I just have to make a million times. Woo hoo.
Another goal I have is to make at least one craft a week, this doesn't include the bracelets I have to make. Between my blog, HallieAnneOriginals, school, and work, I am going to be one busy girl. Let's just hope that I can stick with these resolutions. :)
What are some of your resolutions for 2012? If anyone is to read this please feel free to comment with some of your own ideas for the new year! :)
