Surviving Mondays

I can’t pretend that Monday’s aren’t rough – but a Monday after a vacation usually tends to be the worst. However, this go-round I did very well and successfully survived my 1st Monday back from Vacation. Only 10 More Mondays till I have to face my Next 1st Monday back from Vacation and I can only hope it goes as well as today has! With a little help from a Grande Decaf White Mocha – hold the whip Monday was a wiz and hopefully the rest of the week goes this quickly.

I walk in Relay for Life in Federal Way this weekend if anyone wants to come down and join me. Kerri Santo, Eric and I will be the one’s out there almost dying of heat stroke! It’s supposed to hit 100 degrees on Saturday! Y-U-C-K! I mean, it’s going to be great! Nice and cool, come on down. I’m not enticing anyone with the 100 degree weather am I?

Better get back at it! Happy Mondaying Everyone!

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.

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!
