She's crafty and she knows it (race shirt redo)

Definitely not talking about myself, by the way.  I like to pretend I'm going to be crafty someday, but it's so much easier when my mom is crafty right now!  I always see ideas on Pinterest and I want to see when people I know try them to see if it really works, so I thought I'd share this race shirt redo from crafterhours that I found on Pinterest and my mom made for me (Note, I apologize to any men reading this, because you probably don't care).

I have a crap-ton of t-shirts laying around.  Three high school sports, sorority shirts, college shirts, and now racing shirts completely inundate my closet.  However, I belong on Hoarders:T-shirts and refuse to get rid of any of them.

This is about 30% of the T-shirts.  The labels are from when the husband  organized for me, I didn't do so well keeping it that way.

 I have a few that I like well enough, but not necessarily the fit, so when I saw the redo on Pinterest I had to try it tell my mom about it.  Plus it would be a unique tank top for the summer for free (minus the registration fee).

I was really happy with the finished product and will be shortly giving her more to do.  Plus my little sister saw it hanging in the basement and commissioned one on the spot for her as well.  She has a similar shirt problem.

To save face as a domestic wonder (riiiiiight), i will point out that even though I don't sew/craft very well, at least the recipes I find on Pinterest seem to be appreciated.

I'm always up for new ways to wear old shirts, so if anyone has ideas, let me know!

My Internal iPod Sucks

I meant to post this yesterday, but I also needed to grill steaks and burn sticks last night

Fire is priority over computer time!

Anyway, I almost never run with an iPod.  I get annoyed with the cords and like the time to think.  This does however, leave me with whatever songs are stuck in my head at the moment to play incessantly until I get done running.  When a song or songs get stuck in my head they will play over and over until I feel like I might go crazy.  This can happen faster than normal depending on the song.  Yesterday was particularly awful and since no one likes to suffer alone, I will give my internal playlist so everyone can suffer with me :)

First song:  Soft Kitty, from the Big Bang Theory (please disregard the random French subtitles, unless you are French.  In that case, you're welcome!)

Next up..this gem "Chicken Fat" by Robert Preston.  I'm sorry.

Since these two were in a continuous loop and I couldn't take it any more, I had to pull out the secret weapon.

The old John Denver trick, from that moment on my run became this:

Not certain it was an improvement, but at least it was a change!
