Dried Tomato Red

Dried tomato red is the color we will be painting out house in just a week and a half. I can't contain my excitement. We have so many things to do to get ready for this, not to mention clean the house and keep up on all the other things in life. Regardless we are painting and I believe this project with come with 2 new windows in the house as well! Again much excitement. I'll take pictures to share along the way.

What are you excited about this week?

3 am Leg Warmers

Isabelle got knit leg warmers from a friend of mine late last fall and has played with them off and on for months. They are back “on” this week. She has been sleeping with them along with the green hat I knit for her. Last night she went to bed in her pj’s holding her baby, the leg warmers and the green hat. When she woke me up at 3 am to find the baby she had lost in her sleep she was wearing the leg warmers and the green hat.

Also this weekend I finished a pumpkin hat for Isabelle. (see pictures) I finished the hat while she was napping. When she got up we had to head out to a going away party. She insisted on wearing the pumpkin stocking cap to the party on an 85 degree day.

I told these stories to a friend at work. They said she has found her inner freak.

YEAH SUMMER!

Summer is here as is the treat of ICE CREAM!

Back in the good graces with my librarian

Disclaimer: I was never on "bad terms" with any of our local librarians- they are all very nice people that are always smiling, which I appreciate.

I have been a little busy this past month and forgot to return books that were due on May 11th. (today is June 9th) After checking due dates and overdue fines last night on the computer I collected all of the library books in our house, except 1. It's missing and I can't find it. After digging under the beds, looking in bags and car I figured if I returned all of the book that I have found and came clean with the librarians they might give me a break.

After paying $12.70 in over due fines for 7 books, I explained that I currently am unable to find the 8th book. The librarian kindly gave me a break, with a smile and renewed the missing book. While the search continues at home I breath a sign of relief knowing I will have 2 weeks before the fines begin again.

The missing book is a Nora Roberts book I have yet to read.

Song in my head today

This is the song in my head. LOVE IT! Seriously anyone who had children should be watching this!

Odd things in my purse #2

Why do odd things in my purse revolve around going to my fabulous hairstylist? Today I came to work with a sippy cup half full of juice in it... Seriously.
