Water + Cell phone = Dead Cell Phone

Seems like a simple enough equasion ... right?

Yep, that's me complaining about my cell phone issues, and how I can't ever keep one intact for more than a year... well, today I think I beat my record.

I have had my cell phone since the beginning of March. Today, my Nokia leapt out of my pocket and into one of the 2,000 puddles in the streets of Seattle.

Awesome...

Currently, my phone is in a bowl of white rice attempting to suck all the moisture out of it. I have heard this works miracles, but I'm not counting on it.

So, I have my Voyager dug out of the "dead cell phone basket" and am looking forward (not) to not being able to use the front side of my phone as was the reason I got a new phone to begin with.

Again,

Awesome...

Ugh... Happy Monday.

Also, please send extra prayers to my Momma. She's awfully sick from her chemotherapy and has had a hard week. She could use a little extra cheer.

All my Love, A

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!

R is for Ronnebeck!
