wishful morning thinking

good morning girls!  Its been awfully quiet out here in blog land...  must just be that time of year.  there are days lately that I've actually wondered, why am I doing this?  blogging.  And for a couple minutes I entertain the idea of giving it up.  but there is something very addicting about it and I love seeing all my bloggy pals.. so I keep coming.  and so here I am.  With nothing special to say or  to show you... just popping in..  

We've had awesome springy weather this past week, for which I am very grateful for... but I do hear that its supposed to be in the 50's and rainy by the weekend. 

Hubby finally got the yard mowed yesterday..  it was looking pretty rough back there!   I'm dying to go flower shopping.  but it is too early yet.  my little fairy in the first picture is hoping to be out in the fairy garden very soon!  however, I do think I will wait two more weeks before I start planting.... or maybe just one more week.. lol!  Really, I'm sure Ive told you before, but I don't like gardening!  lol... I dont know how to do what I want to do, nor do I have the money to do what I want to do.. and truthfully  I'm not even really sure that I even know what it is I want to do!  LOL!  and thats the truth!  

What Id like is a lot of money.. a brand new house, built to look like a very old farm house, with beautiful gardens and trees and a gardener... as well as a gorgeous patio surrounding a beautiful pond like pool.. with a pool boy.  And well I'm at it.. a housekeeper would be great too.  Oh and lets add in a couple barns for my hubby to play in.  with a white picket fence surrounding it all........ or really I would love to have a stone fence surrounding it all.  

OK.. enough of that dream...  I wish that fairy was for real and she was able to wave that magic flower and make me rich!!  

and since shes not, I suppose I shall go kick my husband out of the bathroom so I can get ready to go to work... so I can at least have some money to buy some flowers!  LOL!

well, I had no intentions of taking this path on my blog this morning... but that seems to be what popped into my wishful little brain !!

have a lovely day!  and hey... if any of you hit it big in the lottery..   please think of me! LOL!

happy day!

oh.. and minus two more pounds last night.. woohoo!

it's a tweet thing...

Just a little sunday morning show and tell!  I have a spot in my living room that needed a little something.  And I kept hoping to find the perfect bird print.. either vintage.. or whimsical.  But no luck, I havent been able to find anything.  then I remembered this picture that I had found on line and used to in my little birdie and nest banner.  I thought if I could make it big enough it would work.. and it did!  I just printed it out, embellished it a little bit, stuck it in a frame I already had, added a couple more embellishments and its perfect in that spot.  And best of all.. didnt cost a thing! 

A perfect and fast sunday morning craft!  

Now I'm off to get dressed and make my bed... 

then I think Im going to go out for a bit. 

 Have a great day TWEET friends!

(sorry.. I cant help myself sometimes!  lol!)

cuteness!!

The weekend kicked off last night with a visit to see Marlaina, Tiffany and Rob.  I picked up Jen, Beth and Torry and we went for a little visit!  I love seeing both babies together.  they are soooo freaken cute!

 

I gotta admit though, that Torry wasnt as sweet to his little cousin as I would have liked him to be.  hes at that age when he thinks everything is his... "Mine.. mine ...mine"  even when they are Marlas toys.  but hes two.. and thats how two year olds are.  Plus sometimes he doesnt like to share his hugs and kisses and sometimes he hits....   and they ends up in time out.   I know... another two year old trait, that he will out grow.. but still not very nice behavior.

I still love the stuff'n out of him though!

Marla pie, on the other hand.. is pure sweetness!  hugs and cuddles for everyone.  and just freaken adorable besides!   I just love these babies to pieces!

so.. this morning.. Im heading to work on bears for a few hours.  Then I'm hooking up with my two besties for an afternoon of shopping and playing.  not sure where we're going yet.. but out and about where ever the day takes us!

The weather is supposed to be sunny and 75 both days this weekend and into next week.  

who could ask for anything more?  

Have a delightful weekend my friends!

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

finally, doing what I should be doing!

working on memory bears.   I ended up with two more orders, so I thought Id really better get busy!  so Ive been up since 5:00 cutting pieces out.. and I'll soon be setting up the sewing machine! (well not today... but hopefully tomorrow morning.)

For now I'm leaving this mess on the kitchen table, I just wanted to make a quick post to say happy thursday.. it is thursday right?  lol.. I have to go do the dishes up and then two of my most favorite chores..  NOT!  clean the bird cage and the litter box....  

do you like my little pinkeep?  I made it several years ago, this has always been one of my favorite little bears.. you can see that figgy likes it too.. he has chewed his hat!  silly cat!

 

I'm looking forward to an evening out tonight to a show with a neighbor friend.  And then tomorrow is FRIDAY!!!  you know how I love my weekends..  well, I'm sure we all do.. ! 

Figgy, Frannie and I say,  "Have a great day bloggy pies!"  

well, I'm sure thats what they would say... if they could...

May Day

 

Happy May Day!  I hope everyone has some sunshine and flowers in their lives today!!

And... OH dear!  my forgetful old brain!! I dont want to let another day go by with out posting pics of the wonderful package that I recieved from Lisa for Elizabeths swap.

 Lisa spoiled me with a ton of great stuff.  and the box, which I failed to take a picture of, and of which Im too lazy to take one right now, was cute, wrapped in star paper.. which you can actually see part of in this pic below!

Look at the little pink haired spun cotton vivi doll, working on her needlefelting that Lisa made for me!  is that not stinking awesome!?  and the other dolly with the white hair that lisa said jumped right into the box to come along to my house..

I see lots of things that will find their way into crafty projects to come.  thank you so much Lisa!  and your package is on its way!

In other news... the good:

Im down another 3.8 pounds! woohoo!!  

the  bad:

I think I have a cold.. or Ive developed allergies.. blaaahhhhh!!!

but whatever.. I must go get ready for work.. 

so have a great May Day everyone!
