I somehow coordinated my days off w/ the holiday

 and had 5 days off in a row. Heaven I tell yeah!

I ate tofurkie.

I co-hosted a wedding shower.

I found out I am getting a nephew!! (YIPEE!)

I went out for the first time shopping Black Friday!

 "It was HELL in a big box (store)! HATED IT!

Won't do that again!

I didn't exercise as near as much as a planned..

nor did I do lots of things I had in mind!

I've said it once and will say it again I am sure.

 Dog sitting is harder then kid sitting!

Pickle!

Oh Christmas Tree!!

Bench

My old county court house has some darling OLD benches in it.

A vintage house that I walk by has one too!

And now...So do I!!

She is pink

She is old!

Kinda chippy!

She once was aqua!

and now she is mine!! Awwweee what to do w/ her!!

 Chemical strip, head gun, just paint again?

-Yesterday a homeless smelly man approached me and

 informed me my shoes didn't match my pants.

He also said my jacket was a few colors off.

-I had the worlds worst headache last night!

-I had my FORTH birthday dinner last

 night...and I am sure it will take months to

work of last nights dinner!

-I love to win blog giveaways!

- I sware I think more about my

 sister wedding decor then she does! (It's how I roll)

-When I sell things on KSL it is like magic.

-Last night while quietly sitting in my car,texting and singing Christmas music

a friend approached my car and scared me 1/2 to death.

 I honestly pooped my pants...and screamed a few

octaves higher then I have in a long time. Thanks Jill!

Turkey!!

 Last night...I happened on a herd of WILD TURKEYS!!

Doggie Glam!!

I am love'n the cool Autumn days! It is too cold for some though.

I decided to play a little Project Runway this morning.

I cut up a t-shirt leaving the collar and refashioned it

in to this darling proto-type. I used a different thread and bobbin and the

arm holes are to high. and my word the sewing is wild. But...next time it will be

DARLING!!

JJ Cole Baby!

Today I had to run to Logan for work.

I saw another blue banner where the Down East Sale

was last month. It was a JJ Cole Baby blow out!

My little sister has a baby bump and so I thought I'd take a look see.

What do you say is a "must have" for a new tiny one?



Target Love!

I love when I walk to the mail box and find goodies like this!

Filled w/ goodies like THIS!!

I LOVE it when it is totally free.

Thanks Target!

Tiny Tree...

Last night I made this (@ Relief Society).

 I like it! I think she is cute!

My tree didn't look like anyone elses

 and some people thought she was broken

and were shocked I let her legs show.

Who is this woman they gasped in my direction and

why is she using lime green when all the rest of us are

using jewel tones. Most often I do things diffrent and

it suits me and my tree just fine!!

Thanks!

"Gratitude is the

most exquisite

form of courtesy." Jacques Maritain (1882 - 1973)

Tonight while at work I grabbed the recycle bin and went to work.

I whipped up this thankful tree!

 (Now in hindsight I see the trunk should of been

 tapered but that is a project for another day!)

Hope this tree fills to over flowing!

Toof

Tonight my sweet niece called me

 while I was at work. She wanted

 to report she had lost her "north tooth"!

Snoooow...

*Today it snowed!

*I awoke after hitting the snooze no less then 5 times. I looked

at the clock and thought "I don't do 8:03 well".

*Today I learned a lot.

*I hob knobed w/ those on TV and..and learned they are just like us!

*I leaned that most people are just people.

*I was reminded how much I hate to scrape my car...but

decided I'd feel blessed for having a car.

*I remembered how blessed a nap is.

*I learned that sometimes you have to pull out the

 "sensible shoes" and forget the cute shoes! Just for comfort sake!

*I confessed my fashion icons to be my

 friend Karen and a ten year old in my ward.

*I suggested "my temple" and Maddox

 as hot spots to those visiting from out of town!

All that and the day is through..and I couldn't be more pleased!

Remember....

I am pooped! I could sleep for a week! Taking days off work for ones

birthday makes going back hard work!!

No fear there is FUN FUN FUN in sight!!

HERE

Come join in...and have lunch w/ us!!

I went to PB last night. I could live there!

I have a Christmas CD in my car..and I'm not afraid to use it!!



Happy Bird Day...again!!

"One year older and wiser too!"

Thanks to everyone who wished me well and 

helped me celebrate the big day!!

"Stick a flower on it!!"

EVERYTHING is better w/ a flower on it. Especially ME!

 I needed a place to corral all my flowers and so I made this little darling.

 A frame w/ wire. How is that for technical?

Awe but it makes my life so but more organized!

 Happy November!!
