Just playing around...

Had today off from work.
One of the benefits of working for the county..
election day off!
sO I spent it putting away halloween. It was so sad.
I hate putting all my sweet little ghouls, goblins,
black cats and pumpkin heads away.
But it has to be done.
I have a little bit of stuff that I leave out for thanksgiving
and I ran out and bought a few pieces
that are just for thanksgiving, lori mitchell pieces..
YOu should see them!
two pilgrims riding on turkeys and two little indians.
they are so cute! I'll take pics of them tomorrow.
I snapped these two pics tonight,
and thought id try to use the one of my mantel for a banner..
and it worked!
except that it doesnt say "Viv on a whim"!
I think I might be able to figure out how to add that on tomorrow though.
I'm just impressed that it uploaded and fit there!
And.. HEres an odd picture of the naughties.
Dont they look so grown up now?? Its just this picture..
They really still look like kittens.
Went to weight watchers tonight,
lost another 1.6 pounds! amazing!
Im just so impressed with myself! heehee!
Just wait til next summer..
I'll be a beach beauty instead of a beached whale! haha!
(just kidding.. girls... I know it upsets some of you if you think i'm insulting myself.. but Im not.. I'm just playing!)
Well, its back to work tomorrow.. so i suppose I should put myself to bed!
good night all!

  9. I HAVE been reading your blog, Viv! Honest! Just having computer headaches still, so I wait till days when I'm NOT to post! Sigh ...! Pain in the patoot computer! Your kitties ARE looking very grown! Soooo cute! And I love your Thanksgiving display! You always do such cool decorating! As for the weight loss - even tho' you say you are kidding, I KNOW what you are doing. Making jokes FIRST before anyone else CAN. How do I know that? Because I'm a PRO at it. But NO ONE would make jokes about YOU. You are adorable at ANY size. And I am super proud of you for getting HEALTHY! YOU ROCK! P.S. I'd give ANYTHING for your beautiful hair! I keep meaning to TELL you that!

  10. Hi Viv,

    It took me couple of minutes to figure out how to "comment" on blog. Thank you for your comment on my "in progress blog". I have to tell you, you've done a beautiful job with your blog and the items you've created. The flower bracelet is very pretty and I love your Fall set-up!
