And We'll End with a *Sigh...

1| Today is going to be a little nuts once I get off work, hence the title...

2| I get a massage today - since my back has been KILLING me all weekend It was God sent that Mary had an opening for me.

3| In relation to #2 I think I'm officially giving up high heels.

4| My BFF Derby Wife has her first "Public" match in the area in 27 days - Must get Tutu in order!

5| Everyone has been posting things they're Thankful for on Facebook - one each day. I was going to do that on my blog, but I'm already 5 days behind, and I think I post about being thankful often, so I'm gonna go ahead and neglect that this year.

6| I have a total itch for another photography session, perhaps one out in the leaves... any takers?

7| This weekend will be even crazier... Happy Hour, The Adams Family, NW Coffee Festival, and Wicked! Wheew! I'll need a weekend from my weekend!

8| Lots of good responses to our Relay Holiday Bazaar that we're throwing together for December 8th... Want a table? Let us know!

9| Today is a good day... yes it is.

10| I miss blogging here, I'll be on the ball shortly :)

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!

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.

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...
