10 Random Things Friday...

1. My friend came over to spend a day with me crafting and talking.  The clock in my studio WAS an hour behind.  I looked at my watch and realized it was 1 minute PAST the time darling gets off the bus, I screamed and RAN up the stairs and out into my driveway (Darling gets dropped off at the private drive right before ours that is at the top of the hill) where my lovely neighbor was waiting with my sweet girl! Whewww!  As I stood chatting and explaining that a friend was over and we were distracted, said friend came out, pulling the door behind her and thus, locking us out!  I won't tell you how we got in, I don't want my secret to get out!

LOVE my crazy friends!!

2. I listed 3 re purposed Vintage Birds in my etsy shop yesterday...

3. I need to put myself on a strict schedule, this free-stylin' life is makin' me CRAZY!  I'm going to take a class at the local art college

I realize I am very fortunate to not have to work, but not having any structure at all is not so good for me...anyone else struggle with this?  

4. 

My buddy, my pal, my mental twin, my BFF is FEATURED in this magazine

~Christine~

go ahead, head over to her blog viewsbychris.blogspot and tell her 

CONGRATULATIONS!

5. I caved on my "no fake chemical laden creamers"

plus I had a .55 cent coupon!

6. When I was a kid I wanted to be a truck driver when I grew up because of this man and his monkey

BJ and the Bear!  Anyone else?

7. How were these pants EVER popular?

you can thank this man...

I'm proud to say I never even attempted this "style"

8. Taking our sweetie to see this movie tonight

9. Can't believe how FAST time flies when you are a mama!

Last week we went out to eat.  Darling announced she had to  go to the bathroom and she got up and went.  She went WITHOUT me...she didn't need my help!!  I said to the Mister "she's going to be 8 this summer, then she's going to be 10, then she's going to drive, then she's going to go to college and then some boy is gonna want to take her from us" then I burst into tears...

LOVE this girl more than I knew was possible!!!

10. If you ever see me wear any of the following shoes, please smack me

Have a GREAT weekend everyone!!

Good Stuff Tuesday!

1. Well, 1st off I'm happy to report that "THE FIX ON I-96" is Environmentally Friendly!!

Whewww, I did not know- Now I do!

2. I woke up to these words:

"Women can increase their breast size..."

I have NO idea what was going on, but since it was the obnoxious morning guys, I didn't linger to hear the rest... maybe I should have?!

But good thing #2 is free undies and $10 off bras at Victoria's secret!

I've had 2 of these coupons within a couple of weeks.  Underwear that is usually $8.50/pair for FREE!!

3. Natalie Merchant on GMA!

I love, love, love Natalie Merchant and her music- I'm sure I would even enjoy her singing the Meow Mix commercial!  I'm not a big music person, which I know is weird to a lot of people, but it's like annoying noise to me most of the time- I sometimes wonder if I just don't HEAR what music lovers hear?... I saw Natalie M. at Lillith Fair years ago and besides Paul McCartney, she's the only other singer I've seen that I like just as much live as on a CD!

She has a new CD- "Leave Your Sleep" and I'm going to go grab it TODAY!

4. Buttercream?!  Hello!!??
Ok, so I did sip it straight from the bottle... but ONLY once... I could barely stop!!

5. I broke down and bought one... it's ugly, but i love how it works!

I've got to get the Mister to put another hook on the back of the shower so I can hang it there and get my rack put back up.  My 374 shower products are sitting on the floor and the shelves and that just won't do!

We have a glass door that I was wiping down with CLR all the time... the fumes killed me (mild asthma nerd here!) and this is just as easy as pushing a button and getting out of the way!

6. Lava Lamp!

I'm sure Dr. Freud would have something to say about this, but I ❤ it!
My Great Aunt Mable had a red one when I was a kid- I'm pretty sure it was a Christmas gift from us.  Every time we went to her house the 1st thing we would do was turn it on.  When she passed away it was the 1 thing I REALLY wanted, but apparently it didn't work and they threw it out... I would have taken it whether it worked or not...☹

7. ZAPPOS!
Thanks for all the comments everyone, Zappos will soon know where i live!!

8. My old favorite mixed animal was the Liger- which is a mix of a lion and a tiger!

My new favorite is a:

Elemation

or is it a

Dalphant?

8 good things that's enough!  I have 2 more, but it's taking too long to load and I actually have stuff to do... Get this, I decide to take a break from my etsy shops and suddenly I have 2 sales and a special order!!

Papercutsarecute is making a comeback (apparently?!)

Have a great day!!
