Ten on Wednesday...

1| I totally spaced Ten on Tuesday yesterday, did anyone notice? I didn't right up until I read another bloggers ten, and then it hit me like a ton of bloggy bricks.

2| This week has me totally turned around - perhaps that's a good explanation for #1?

3| I am so happy today is Pseudo Thursday - One day off between now and Friday when I can wear Jeans and only work till Two. Sweet Life.

4| It's a little sick how excited I am to decorate for Christmas - normally I'm a good kid and I don't rush the holidays but I am looking forward to all the pretty.

5| Kathy, Erica and Shannon made Lefse this week at Kathy's - I miss Lefse making. I was invited to go to Kerri's and do it this year, but work got in the way - darn it any ways.

6| We had a little piece of perfect in our life yesterday as Gracie jumped up on the all ready too full couch with Eric, Aquaman and I , and then she Snuggled - you heard it here first folks- she SNUGGLED in to hang out with us for a good 20 minutes. This pet Momma was in a state of bliss.

7| Speaking of Christmas - as of last weekend I'm nearly half done shopping!

8| As of this weekend I'll be about 98% done, and NO I am NOT doing Black Friday.

9| I am abnormally grumpy lately - I'm sure it will pass.

10| I'm not looking forward to the Holidays without Mom. It's just not going to be super fun.

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...
