Crafty Crafty




I've been dying to have a craft room or maybe even a craft closet in my house. But all my rooms are taken and funny all my closets are full. So... being my oh so in need of a craft space self, I took the desk my dad built me in grade school and painted it(It was a horrible honey yellow stain) with my free Glidden paint, which by the way they are doing another giveaway, and added some cute knobs that are Anthro knockoffs and put it in place of a night stand in my guest bedroom. Add my sewing machine and I am one happy momma! My baby girl has been reaping the benefits of this new crafty desk via a new skirt to wear every day made with this oh sew easy pattern (sew instead of so get it?? :)) LOVE my new old desk and LOVE having a place to be creative, or at least pretend!

The Singing Dryer


See that guy up there?? I was in love with him...was being the operative word. We broke up! It's rough. I just left my old dryer for this new model. The old guy...he liked to sing. Off key and really loudly anytime I used him. So I moved on. But not up apparently. Oh no. Because my new guy...well he doesn't sing, but he doesn't work either. Nope...won't even turn on. (and yes I did plug it in! wink wink) So I am again going through a break up! Hopefully my new, new dryer will work and won't sing and we can start our relationship off right!

Moral of this story? Never trust the discontinued floor model. And don't giggle to yourself because you are supremely cheap and you are getting a screaming deal on a super nice dryer. It will come back to haunt you! :)

Oh my


Well...I had the less than brilliant idea this afternoon to mow my entire front yard with one of these. I LOVED my reel mower when we lived in NC. But our yard was literally about 6 feet wide by about 8 feet long. Takes postage stamp to a whole new level right? Our yard now? HUGE! As in I could probably build another house in it and still have room to spare:) What was I thinking? And on top of the monstrous yard, the grass was at least twice as tall as it should be to successfully use a reel mower to cut it:) Needless to say my arms have passed sore and are to the numb, are they still attached stage and my legs...well lets just not go there!! Hope I can move tomorrow!!
