Oh noes! Which one to choose?!

Help me. You know you want to. ;-)

I can't decide which manipulation I like best for my new icon.

# 1 # 2

The icons are the same manipulation, but in the first one, I included Professor McGonagall's hands - I feel they help add to her sense of "Oh noes!" However, the pic is very small when icon-ized, and the text is much easier to read in the second one.

I'm torn! You decide for me, and I'll add the winner to my icons in the morning. Yay! Teamwork! Friendly participation! Wheeeeeee!

[Poll #576935]

Oh noes!, part deux.

Whoa. #2 scored a LANDSLIDE against #1 (poll originally found HERE). Thank you all for voting. It is clear that, iffen there's text, you're likin' to read it. ;-)

Erasing the hair is so PC.

Yay! The Pampered Chef party was great fun! Seven lovely ladies showed up, plus Jan, my consultant, and we had a great time until about 10 minutes ago (and the party was at 5:00pm, by the way). I love when parties turn into girls' night chat-fests afterwards - it's the best part of the party!

I have two outside orders right now, and 6 more promised, so my show is looking really good. I only needed $70 in sales to get what *I* wanted for free, and I'm WAY above that. Whee!

Jan put on a wonderful show for me, and she made a Barbecue Chicken Ring for the appetizer and Banana Split Brownie Squares for the dessert. Both recipes were much too yummy. She forgot her Medium Bar Pan on the way out, and she called me later to tell me. I told her I'd bring it tomorrow to the scrapbooking group. Then, just minutes ago, I was cleaning up and I found a large black shoulder bag full of PC stuff and a tan and brown purse. I knew that if it was Jan's, she'd be frantic for it in the morning, so I went ahead and called her even though it was late - I woke her up, but she said she was so glad I'd called because YES - she would have been a mess. So I'll take all of her leftover things to church with me in the morning. :-)

I went on a Magic Eraser® trip earlier today. I wanted to hang up all of my bats for Halloween, and then I decided that I wanted to wash the fronts of the overhead cabinets first. That quickly turned into also washing the bottom cabinets, which then turned into scrubbing the outside and then also the inside of the refrigerator, which then led to scrubbing the closet doors and front door. I just kept going, and I couldn't stop! I ♥ my Magic Eraser®.

I'm ready for the humid, muggy weather to go away for real. It did disappear for a week or so there, and I was happily back into the swing of curling and styling my hair again every other day. But no - now we're back to this muggy, awful, icky, wet weather again, and there's no point curling my hair when I'm going to walk through a gallon of water in the air with each step. Ugh.

Oof. Time to go do some work for MuggleNet. :-)
