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.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!

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!

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...
