This and That

So when I went to Blackberry Junction on Saturday morning,

I was so excited to see my friends Trish and Melissa~ it was

funny though because we all three had the same thing in our

hands. These little bingo vintage packs. The place is totally

packed and yet we had the same thing. How cool is that!

Worked at the Vintage Market Saturday and brought

this fun cabinet home that I have been anxious for. Bought

new knobs for if and when I put the doors on.

Love this scale!

Really into burlap right now along with fabric funny as I dont

really know how to sew.. But glue guns work just fine!

Can't even remember where I got this frame but finally used it

for an inspiration board in my scraproom.

Aunt Lacey painted her nails today she was so excited.

This picture reminds me of her mom so much.. I feel the emotions

of her getting ready to move next week. ugh mixed emotions.

She loves to get her pictures taken.. She just amazes me with

her personality and her comments. She told me last night "Thanks

for listening to me gammy"!

I dont know about you but I am ready for the rain to be gone. Enjoy

the evening.

Just Be

Me, Myself and I

So I got this idea from Stephanie at Just Me My soldier and

our 4 chicks. She is on my blog on the sidebar under the

blogs I like to read. I think one reason I am so tuned into her

is she just had twin girls. Any how she talks about how one

of her readers asked why she wasn't in more pictures. And

how one day she would want to look back and have pictures of

herself.. I would copy and paste her link here but for some reason

it will not let me. So if anyone knows why that is I am up for some

advice.

Things about me:

I am always the first to buy the new country samplers

I dont care much for reading but love to look at pictures

I hate to paint

I sleep with five or more blankets on plus socks

I dont sleep enough

I get my feelings hurt very easily and yet tend to stand up for

myself better as I get older

Fun Things

My parents have started giving things to the kids now.
This vintage bird was one my dad gave me when I was little.
It is an alcohol decanter from the 60's. I love it in my downstairs
bathroom.

Love these bottles they were a birthday gift from Brittany.

Along with these salt and peppers~

Kinda like the look of mix matched chairs with this table.

I found that a yard and a half of fabric of choice makes a good

table cloth.. You can afford to change it often..

I ordered this banner from Susanne. I knew it would be perfect.

She does beautiful work and this will go in the scraproom. Which

let me say I have not scrapped since I moved my stuff upstairs.

But I have picked up extra shifts at work and still trying to organize

my new space. And now Jordan and Londyn are moving out in a couple

of weeks so will have another room to organize. Have so many idea's.

I have mixed feelings on this move. I know it is good for all involved but

know it will be hard for me as I am use to the noise and chaos of our

home..

Wanted to make a personal note for self that Sister Teresa got a puppy

Saturday (5th) and we three sisters were there to meet the little 8wk old

blue heeler. Still waiting to hear his name. But boy was he cute with the

good ole puppy breath. So weird that they all smell the same, have you ever

noticed.

Almost forgot this bucket of goodies. Cant wait to use it.

Oh and yeah btw have a cold again second time around in two

weeks.. ugh~ Have a great week..

Five Reasons

Came across this while I was blog searching.. I loved each
one!

Inspired but uninspired at the same time

I love to look at blogs` I could spend hours and hours.. But

sometimes it makes me frustrated because I would love to have

my house look so good and untouched... And then I get uninspired

because I get overwhelmed with my mind swirling with so many

ideas.

The last two weeks I have spent time with friends that mean so much

to me. Kate and Susanne being two of them. I am so glad to catch

up with each of you. Brittany who I will see in a few minutes as I am

going to a junk swap at the Vintage Market. Let me know if you are

interested and I will fill you in on the details. It is away to get rid of

something but bring another treasure home..

Seeing a comment from my friend Trish was a nice surprise too. Keeping in

touch with Lisa and Kathie was nice too. Heidi and Beverly having lunch

at Izzy's always brightens my day as well. Enjoy your evening.
