Darling Digs!!

My Darling little cousin (19) gave his farwell talk yesterday so he can pack his bags and go on a Mormon Mission. After the church meeting we met here for a little munch and mingle. Every corner of this house was filled w/ darling and simple pleasures for the eye!! I feel so blessed that a dollar and a thrift store make my heart sing...because I doubt that I will one day live in such a palace that ALLLLMOST puts a Mormon Temple to shame!!

I love the color and finish on this desk:

Looking back on today!

Today I had a weird feeling I was being followed!! So un-cool!!

October

I just finished totally shampooing my whole car! I also scrubbed all the matts! I am totally ready for winter...kind of!

A day in the life.

I took the "girls" from the group home where I work to a costume party last night! They were the custest Sponge and Cow there!!

Today through my eyes!

We had the most beautiful and unhappy clouds today!!

I met this little fella!

Cookie

A little boy in my primary class is so pleased about a new temple come'n to town!! He remembers after you visit get cookies!! Little does he know that they only do that ONCE at the open house!

Free Screen Savers!

I change my screen saver at least 3 times a week...if not daily. I try to use a theme. I have found that using images from the Pottery Barn site works wonderfully...and they have FAB photos!!
1. Find an item you like. 2. Click to in large. 3. Right click and "save as background". 4. Enjoy!! Psst!! Don't tell anyone you heard from me!!

Happy Sunday!!

Today!

I bought this:

I wanted to buy this:

I did this w/ the .50 whatever it is. (it is holding my necklaces and braclets! I have many)

And did this w/ the .10 number two.

A walk down the isles...

A walk down memory lane!!

Spark!

If I was RICH I'd do this, this weekend!

Sometimes

Sometimes my soul aches!!

Orange polka dots!

You know it must be fall when the fields are full of orange polka dots!!

A $6.00 ebay battery fixed my darling camera!! YIPPPPPPPPEEEE!!! She is back and better then ever!

It dosen't pay to be honest!!

My little doggy friend nibbled on this library book. Because I am an honest soul...I took it to the desk and confessed.

I was told I would have to pay FULL PRICE for the book!! I said I'd buy it on amazon..they said "we are very picky about what we put on our shelves!!" I fumed!!

I love the library..and I visit often. I often donate books I buy read and love. I am a good customer!! I often read damaged book but just figure that is the life of a book read in MANY different homes. I am very ticked that a few tiny battle wounds and I was charged FULL PRICE!!

Seeing RED!!

I bought a DARLING silver necklace this weekend for 2.50..it was the wrong color...nothing a little red spray paint can't fix!! (I have silver..needed red!) I'm sure my neighbors w/ this this is a new tree decor trend!!

Happy Fall!

Book Report

I miss my camera! I feel like an arm has been cut off and I am not complete!! Sighhh!! The laptop died and all my "favorites" died w/ it!! Sighhhh!! I still can believe I get my very own temple!! I am so excited!

I love the Shopaholic books!! They are so funny, cleaver and witty!! However the say the "F-word" and have PG-13 bits that make me blush!! I read this funny book (above) this weekend and it is the also cleaver, witty and very funny!! It is a total "light read"..and just makes ya giggle!! My little sister had a best friend in High School who was like Phebe from friends. She had no idea (in high school) that the mailman also too mail not just delivered it!! Anyway the girl in this book reminds me of my sisters head in the clouds friend!! It's a must read for the LOOOOONNNNGGG winter ahead!!

My New Temple!

It was announced today that there will be a new Mormon Temple built in my tiny home town!! What an awesome thing!!

Perfect Pumpkin!!

I'm not a huge fan of the color orange! Thank goodness Dollar Tree has these cute little pumpkins for a dollar and they match everything!! They are the perfect size..about the size of an orange..imagine that! Go adopt one or many today!!

Just a day at the office!

The accent wall at the group home where I work was ORANGE!! It lived it's life and it was time for a change!! (notice a few spackle spots)

It was painted a beautiful sage green!! By yours truely!! There is a rug infont of the red couch that has sage in it so it ties it alll together!!

It was hard to get a picture...here is one w/ the light on.

Ooo it looks so fresh and clean!! I love it!!

The story of a door!

Once there was a door...she was white and boring and longed for a more colorful life!

You could hardly see her from the street! No one payed her much attention!

Then one day she got a wild streak and decided to wear RED!! (cranberry)

She looks beautiful and feels BEAUTIFUL!

People notice her from the street now!!

The doors where I work have needed an update for a long time. My boss ok-ed it last week...and TA DA!! A beauty is born!!
