It seems like forever ago since I did one of these random posts. It’s something I started this Summer along with Instagram posts, that I love doing. I guess it’s showing more of a personal side to this blog & also showing REAL LIFE. Which let me say – we live “Real Life” over here.
This is not ~ 123 Fairytale Lane.
I can assure you.
So here we go…
1. Speaking of keeping it real~
I swear I used to pride myself in having the best toe nails or better yet, feet out of all my girlfriends when I was single. They can all testify in having to wait on me a few times, just because I needed a fresh coat of paint.
NOT anymore.
2. I was so freakin’ jealous inspired by the Nester & her owl. Why, if I knew where she lived – I think it would be the one thing I would try to sneak out of her house.
So don’t you know, I heard angels singing when I walked into the thrift store the other day & laid my eyes on this~
BEFORE:
Mine is not like hers, but she’s awfully cute now. I plan to show her off even more soon.
3. Just call me Elvis~
peanut butter, banana, drizzled with honey & sprinkled with pumpkin pie spice sandwich.
Amen & Amen.
It’s been my lunch of choice for the past few days. I joked with a friend that the smell of pumpkin is going to come out of my pours. Because I can’t get enough of pumpkin anything these days.
4. I spent most of the entire weekend alone working on orders for the shop. I haven’t had this much alone time, in I don’t know when.
See – no toe nail polish & it kinda looks like my legs are hairy in this picture. Well, they aren’t hairy – just maybe full of stubble. TMI???
5. After finishing orders, I started playing with new ideas & new colors for posie clusters.
3 new clusters.
Coming to a shop near you soon!

Marianne@Songbird says
Loving the colors of the new posies. You really have been busy.
And funny about the feet pictures, reminded me of the Nester when she was a small blogger, she posted pictures of her feet too 🙂

Looking forward to seeing your finished owl:@)

Ooo, the owl is gonna be awesome! Good for you for having some “catch up time”! Any catch up time I have these days seems to be frittered away… trying to get it together this fall! :/

If I took random photos, there would ALWAYS be a Lightning McQueen in it somewhere! 🙂

Oh so it was YOU who came to my local Thrift store and bought the large owl before I could get my hands on it!! 🙂
Seriously…I dropped some things off at the Thrift store to give away and they had this really cool looking large owl figurine. It wasn’t for sale yet, but it would be a few days later. I went back. It was gone. 🙁 Oh well.
Your’s is lovely. I love the all white look of it.
Love your blog…lots of fun ideas!
