Sweet Magnolias Farm give away

The awesome ladies over at Sweet Magnolias Farm are having THE.BEST. giveaway. I have been collecting mason jars for-EVER. I don't have a huge collection but I have been picking them up over the years and I am especially fond of the jars with the glass lids.

There will be SIX winners (I hope I hope I hope I win) and here are some close ups of the different prizes. The linens are amazing!

Good Luck everyone!!!!

So sad, these people left today. :( It's been a fun week with my mom and step-dad here. This picture was taken at an open house at Twisted X Brewing Co

My cousin's husband and friend/partner are making big waves in the brewing industry here in Texas.

Boston

         My heart and prayers go out to everyone affected by this tragedy.

Google+

I removed my blog from Google +. It is very hard to maneuver :( and not too many people use it. If you were in my circle, please keep up with me here. If more folks start using it I'll go back to it.

Surpise, surprise!!

Tomorrow this will be on it's way to my Vintage Craft Supplies swap partner Chris over at A Little Creation.

 

 

On another note my mom and stepdad will be here tomorrow!!!! I miss them so much. They live in Indiana and winter in Arizona. I get to see them twice a year when they are on their way to and from Indiana (yep, I'm a Hoosier! And I went to IU and I have my great-uncles Hoosier Cabinet.)

Love you guys!!!!

Not so happy Saturday

washer hose came off and flooded entire kitchen and laundry room. EDIT: Apparently, when they came and replaced the floor due to wood rot (2 1/2 hours late) they forgot to reconnect something on the washer.

Oh, and I cut the daylights out of my thumb on a nail on a Longaberger basket. There is an enormous amount of mold under our towels in the bathroom cabinet. Now I know why they always smell moldy.

Dog food is incredibly wet. And she eats special dog food for her allergies.

And I can't even have a glass of wine because of my medicine,,,,WAH! :(

Have I said how much I hate this state and how much my landlords annoy me?

However, today my friend's daughter is getting married. It is beautiful outside. I wish nothing but the best for Sarah and her beau.

I have a lot to be thankful for. :) And I am not being sarcastic, I promise. We are blessed.

Happy Saturday!!

Sort of. I had a really sharp pain in my knee a few weeks ago. I made an appointment with my doctor and she could tell immediately that I had Joint Effusion. Swollen knee in one area. I had a knee x-ray and she gave me a prescription for an anti-inflammatory (because I was too chicken to get a cortisone shot on the spot). I go back on the 16th and will probably have to have the shot then. I am making my mother go with me since she will be in town (Mommy!!). I will need to be off my feet for 3 weeks from my part time job at the bookstore. My day job involve sitting at the computer. Whee!

On another note this enables me to finish getting all my goodies together for Chris in the Vintage supply swap. We are perfectly paired. Thanks Elizabeth!!!

I received my Spoonflower order. The girl who packed my order made cute comments on my choices. So sweet! I want to make some pillows for our bedroom and some kitchen items. This we site is very, very dangerous.....beware!!!
