Ten on Tuesday

  1. Oh Tuesday - you vex me greatly!!! Or maybe it was just the alarm clock? Why is it so hard to get going midweek?
  2. A little slice of Derby heaven? My husband went out to walk around the concourse before the first bout and brought me back an amazing Rat City Rollergirls Track jacket - I love it, I love him.
  3. Last night was a mix of frustration and relaxation - the frustrating part? running 6 blocks to catch a bus, the relaxation part? Sitting on the couch while Eric cooked me dinner.
  4. Shannon and Erica finally got their birthday gifts yesterday - over a month late. Yes, I'm timely like that.
  5. Gracie was hanging out on the couch loving on me last night and get this, PURRING!
  6. I am wearing shiny silver tights today - Yep I'm 6, I wear tights... so what.
  7. Eric went to a Rainier's game on Sunday with John, I got SO MUCH DONE for our CRAFT BAZAAR coming up this Saturday
  8. Why is Passion/Holy week always so busy? 
  9. Skating at Pattisons tomorrow - Whoop Whoop!
  10. Note to self : when using spray paint ... one must lay down a better shield from getting spray paint on the deck or one will be out there scrubbing said spray paint off the deck.

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
