USPSS... United States Postal Service SUCKS.

So I get one A+ for being a great niece today... and one big fat F for being a doofis.

My Auntie Brenda loves me sooo much she sent me a Birthday gift... on February 4th... Nope you're not losing it that's 14 days ago... and I still haven't seen it... Thanks USPS... Thanks a bunch.

And I Won the RELAY package from Mrs. Sprouffske, and I was SO excited ... so excited that I gave her the wrong zip code on my address when I e-mailed it to her after I won. I may never see my Relay goodies... so I get an F for that... and maybe I shouldn't bad mouth USPS - they may get it to me here after all but let's just say I'm not holding my breath.

Going out to Dinner with a co-worker tonight for Christmas - again I realize that was a few months ago... I can count. Looking forward to random great conversation and a long weird bus ride home because the later you ride the bus the weirder it gets!

Hoping to get a post up about Ash Wednesday before the week is out. Lent is so inspiring.

Going bowling tomorrow night - Can hardly contain my excitement... I LOVE TO BOWL!!!

Enough of the Random sentences... I'm leaving now...

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.

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!

Thoughts of the American Pride Persuasion

I sat, mesmerized as I watched the “Breaking News” of the past 24 hours – Osama Bin Laden, Dead. What? I can’t really deny my mixed feelings about posting today. I don’t normally jump into the political rings but I can’t deny the HUGE news that swept our nation yesterday. So, this post has been thought out, a lot, typed really slowly, every word, intentional. Which is a huge leap from my normal ramblings of a Monday morning. We were sitting on the couch watching a movie, the movie ended and Eric turned on the news, and we watched, in awe. Just like September 11 th , I’ll always remember where I was when I heard the news. I can’t say I was ready to strap on a flag superhero cape style, and run up and down the street chanting “USA… USA… USA” like hundreds and thousands of other Americans in DC and New York, but then again, I wasn’t near ground zero, in Pennsylvania or at the pentagon the day that Osama Bin Laden became a household name. The American in me wants to be happy and
