Lil Miss is watching the 2002 movie ICE AGE on the tele. Funny how it's so cold outside and warm inside, but watching this animation. Checked it out from the Library and when we were there she asked The Children's Librarian if she could have her own Library Card now that she is FIVE! It's soaking in that she is 5. Lil Miss and her Mom came here to live when Lil Miss was 10 months old. I've been providing Childcare Monday through Fridays for 4 years now. It has been an adventure!
The tireds hit me sometimes to where I really just want to take a long winter's nap. Today is one of those days. I've been sorting through paperwork and bills and I think it's taking a toll on me.
The Hot Cocoa is really good and I may have to have another one. We were so excited to be able to get a Keurig this past Christmas. You know when you've wanted something and the years pass and finally you get what you had wanted for so long.......it's sweet when it finally happens. Hubby saw Keurig for the first time when he was at a conference. He told me all about it. Time passed and he was eye balling them. What a delight to finally get one. The variety of coffees, teas, cocoas is growing in popularity. When our kids come home to visit, they will be able to pick whatever and enjoy a gourmet drink in our home. That will be fun and enjoyable. SINGLE CUP HOME-BREWING SYSTEM.
With the new year off to a great start I can't help but notice all the articles popping up on the internet about de-cluttering and getting organized. I'm no exception to the rule. I started thinking about clearing out some stuff and getting better organized.
It seems to go in phases. Just about when I get organized.....poof....off we relocate. I'm tellin' ya if you want to thin out your belongings just relocate! I don't plan on relocating anytime soon.....but I desire to get organized and thin out a bunch of junk we just don't need to hang onto anymore.
~Except They Will Be Pink~
My winter project will be to stitch some Balloon Shades for Lil Miss's Bedroom. I have the material, but need to buy some backing for insulation. Beaded Board is going up on the walls and it's gonna be so cute when it's done....i will cry tears of joy. We did something that I got a big kick out of. The Dining room Chanty was relocated to Lil Miss's room this past week-end and I leaped with joy! For the time being a different Chandelier is hanging in the Dining room. A Williamsburg Chandelier that Hubby cleaned up and rewired. Mercy Sakes.....it cost a whopping $5.oo and is solid Brass. She's gorgeous. Who would have thunk it!
~Shabby Chic Crystal Chandelier~
Lil Miss's PINK Bedroom will be lit with this hanging chandy and soft pink Balloon Shades in the windows. Hoping by the end of February we will say SHE's DONE! Winter project completed. Shabby Chic and proud of it.
~She Looks Something Like This~
Hopefully the Spare Room will get de-cluttered. This will be like taking my life into my own hands...it's a jungle in there. Run for your life. I shutter just thinking about it.
The week-end is coming and I hope....hope it will be in the 50s again like the Weather man has stated. It's alright with me if it snows in February, the LOVE month. Pink it is.
God Bless you.
Thanks for stopping by.
I love hearing from you!

Deanna, LOVE the chandys!! The first one is so unique. Something about your first couple sentences made me think about those winter storms in the "Little House" books...being all snug in the house out on the prairie. The winter nap sounds good! We are getting a little snow, but nothing like the last couple years. Thanks so much for stopping by:-)
I'm still working on the simplifying at my house. L O N G project! BTW, our wind must always be your wind the day after. Had some unexpected wind again last night, so watch out!♥♫
Deanna...Your home will be so amazing when each and every project is done. But ya know...it is kinda fun to anticipate each project, and to enjoy all of the efforts your hubby puts forth and see the vision together. How nice that he is handy! And you are too. Those balloon shades will look so sweet in Lil' Miss's room.
It seems everyone is getting those Keurigs. They seem like a neat machine! Enjoy!
Love ya,
Linda
thankfully we are one day closer to spring!
Enjoy the hot cocoa! I love, just love the Keurig coffee machine. At 5:30 in the morning when I am starting my day, it is nice to have a cup of coffee in less than a minute!
Looking forward to the 3 day weekend!
Hubby
I have been doing a little cleaning out and have sold a few items on Shawnee online garage sale facebook page. It's been fun to make a little extra from things we don't use anymore. :)
