Sweetest!

 
 
 
“After all, I believe the nicest and
sweetest days are not those
on which anything very splendid
or wonderful or exciting happens,

but just those
that bring simple little pleasures,

following one
another softly,

like pearls slipping off a string.”

-L.M. Montgomery

Locker Love!

 
I needed bathroom storage.
I found this little for ten bucks.
Blood red and horribly sponge painted!
 
 
 
Later she looked like this!  




 
Lovely and Shabby!
 Two dollars worth of Restoration Hardware!
Yes please!!
 

 
(Oh I wish I had a better camera!!)

Wild

 
I just read this book. It was profound.
I think each and everyone of us "walks"
everyday of our lives. We see good, bad and ugly.
Some days are hard and some easy.
Sadly I can't "Highly" recommend this book because the
 author uses the "f-word" and there are some pretty graphic scenes.
I did find it interesting and thought provoking.

a daring adventure
 or nothing at all!”

*My nephew likes Bubbles more then me.
*I dumpster Dive like a DIVA!
*Some people talk so loud it reminds me of a FOG HORN!
*I love any sprouting things in the "spring" (Now!)
*I have a pain in the neck!

Oh no SNOW!!


Craft Stick Snowflake
 
I am always working on projects but not so good at taking
photos lately. Darn!
 
*The above is the favorite craft of all last month!
Easy, cute and so graphic! Oh and CHEAP!
 
*While driving w/ one of my special  needs friends I
noticed a large amount of snow on my car hood as did my friend.
She said loudly. "HONDA get that snow off your nose!!"
Makes me giggle just thinking about it!
 
*You think your life is tough? I heard this sweet girl speak today
and my word she is tough. Her husband went blind and her son
died and then came back and now has major disabilities! Not only that
she is cooking a baby in her belly in her spare time!!
 
*Today I video chatted w/ my nef. He had to leave and his mom prompted
"Say goodbye Fodie" He quickly got that shy look in his eye and put his chin
to his chest and said "Bye Fodie"!
So sweet I could eat him w/ a spoon!
 
*Today I was outta gas. I quickly ran to the gas station right
as a storm wall dumping down snow pellets
and blowing them down my neck.
I scream and danced around the whole time I was pumping gas
and then realized the place was packed. I am sure I looked darling!
 
Happy Spring!! (Kidding)
