Everyother day of the week is FINE... Yeah!

Monday Monday... So good to me...
Monday mornin, it was all I hoped it would be...

I can't say that Monday is a bad day today ... the only thing that edges on my mind is the fact that my dear friend Tacy is currently sitting on the beach somewhere in BFE Belieze. I can't even express how jealous I am that all she has to do this week is get out of bed and stumble to the beach to take in the quiet beauty. She was more than excited to fly out Sunday morning, so in my rage of jealousy I wish her the best vacation possible!

I walked down to the photo shop and got some prints that I've been waiting for all weekend long and I'm excited to get them scrapped up on Friday night! Eric is going to be Flamingoing that evening, and will be in and out, so I'm happy to confine myself to the Scrapbooking table!

I hope that this post finds you all having a lovely Monday. My Lunch is almost over and I can see my inbox overflowing ... So I better return a few minutes early!

Much Love Abbs

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off. This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it! I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

8 Years Ago Today...

8 Years ago today... I was in the Kent/Des Moines Park and Ride puking in the bushes because I was SO Nervous about my first day at KMS. I didn't know If I could hack it in the big city. I didn't know a thing about being a Receptionist, and I didn't even know what a Broker/Dealer was, but I swallowed the lump in my throat and decided to take it head on. I've learned SO MUCH - an Immeasurable amount of life and work lessons from my 8 years at KMS, and I could muse all day long about the Farm Fresh 22 year old you see to the left and how naive she was. KMS has given me a gift of balancing a work life and a home life and still being able to give my 110% when I'm at work without losing my balance. When I walked in the door this morning, my co-workers had created this celebration from me, and after they arrived, it got bigger with gifts, and notes, and cards, and decorations. They wanted to celebrate me, and my achievements here, though If they would have kn...
