What I've been up to:
not blogging.
Why?
PHONE CALLS!
Who am I calling...
car insurance companies
dr. offices
enterprise rental car
auto body shops
AAA
enterprise again because the rental smells like smoke
more insurance companies
Why you ask?
Because I was reared ended on the freeway last Friday. It seems as though I let of the "please rear end me vibe". Seriously now two times in a year and a half! I don't think our car will be a complete loss this time, however it does make the previous accident claim a little more hairy. Yes, the last accident still has not been settled and now we get to start to dance with a new insurance company. Lovely.
On a lighter note...
I thought I'd post John's winning bag from last years Christmas craft. It is a tradition in my family to do a craft on Christmas &/or Thanksgiving. Last year we decorated gift bags and in true Jex form it became a competition. My Dad, Debbie, and Katie (a family friend who stopped by on Christmas eve) were the judges. I don't know how but John won. Am I bitter-no, not at all! Why I should I be? Just because John threw as many decals on one bag as possible? Or because some of the other bags were worthy to be sold in a Target store? No I'm not bitter:) It's just I don't think his bag was the best one, sorry hun. They say they did not know who was the creator of each bag but I still think it was rigged. Everyone related/close to me has a crush on John, I think there was some bias involved. Plus they knew how we all would react to the results...writing outraged blog posts a year later etc. Despite my bitterness (smile) I really did enjoy the night and get a good laugh when I think about it.
some of the competition...
and the winning bag...
Notice the blue ribbon he curled for the handle. Looking at it now it's really not that bad.

better than I could ever do...
That bag is amazing. I would pay at least $4.37 for it. That was a good Christmas activity. The real joy didn't come from winning, but from the outrage expressed by you and your sisters. Satisfaction.
John, that bag isn't amazing... but I will say that you did you best work that night. I don't like the fact that you enjoy & relish the fact that all of us disaprove of your winnings. That's right... I said relish!!! Oh well... accoriding to judges, they were handing out the "Tard of the Year" award!!! And the right man won!!!
Every time I start to feel the least bit sorry for you LeeElle, the word "karma" always seems to pop into my head. Now, what is it that people are always saying about Karma? Karma is kool? Karma is king? No, that's right, it's Karma's a B*@#! Sucka!
P.S. I would pay $4.38 for the bag
