Hey Friends, and Happy Friday!! I’m sure for many of you it couldn’t have come a day too early. For me, this week, I say, bleh, as I am about to begin my typical 5 night stretch at work. Ugh. Can always be worse…right!?

Here’s some total randomness in pictures.

Oliver meets his first lobster…hahaha, just too funny!

My youngest son and I stopped by an antique store this afternoon for a visit. And here are a few of my goodies.

Two Santa plates, 10cents each. Vintage pink lamp, $2.00. Folding cart, $2.00. [Sharon, I think it would look nice with a fabric thingy inside definetly.] Lupine in my front garden. I LOVE Lupine, almost as much as I love coneflowers, and gerbera daisies…

Proof, that I do walk into my Art STudio…every now and than. And, it’s my first card using a digital image. Not 100% happy with it by no means, and had a difficult time printing the image out which didn’t help.

Well that’ll do it for here. I need to think about jumping in the shower and getting out the door for another round of work tonight. Until next time…

Not too sure what happened, but this year I didn’t have a chance to cut any of the lilacs to bring into the house. One day they were beautiful, the next day, it seems, they passed by. Maybe it didn’t happen exactly like that, but that’s what it seems.

Today is my second day off in a row. [insert sounds of angels singing here] Unfortunately yesterday I was only awake for about 4 hours, but I was able to get a few ‘busy’ things taken care of. I was in bed around 8p last night, and wide awake at 5:30a this morning. I’ve been puttering around the house, and have accomplished quite abit.

Working on the house going’s on:

• The upstairs hallway, and downstairs hallway walls are primed, ceilings painted, and now begins the coat of paint on the walls. They were the last walls in the house that needed the wallpaper to be removed, and I will be a happy girl if I never see wallpaper again!!
• Kitchen walls and ceiling needs to be primed and painted. Kitchen cupboards will be coming down, and shelves will be added. Still need to decide on the kitchen ‘floor’ and that room will be complete.
• For the inside of the house the only remaining project is the hallway stairs, upstairs hallway, and master bedroom floors will need to be sanded and redone, then we’ll be starting a few projects on the outside and the house will be ready to be put up for sale.

Sending out hugs to my one and only, most favorite, sister in law, Rhonda. Watching my niece, Sam, grow into a beautiful young woman has been wonderful. The years go by so quickly…

Watched The Messenger today, powerful stuff, just absolutely powerful stuff. And yes, I cried, frequently!

Well friends, I need to take advantage of the remainder of this day, so for here, I’m going to close out with well wishes and a beautiful  weekend ahead for each of us. Until next time…
