Totally Trashed

I'll bet you were thinking I had a wild weekend. I'm sorry if you're disappointed. Totally Trashed! I assume that you own one of these or a similar configuration. Don't you just LOVE it?  Totally Trashed I bought this rubbish bin a little over a year ago. It wasn't cheap. Within 2 months after purchasing it, the foot pedal broke. (I probably should not have let a herd of elephants use it, right?) Then, a few months after that the inner plastic liner cracked and wouldn't lift out any ... View the Post

Key West Architecture Redeux

I fell in love with Key West and hope you love this Key West Architecture Redeux.  Key West Architecture Redeux I first saw pale blue porch ceilings in Savannah and later in Charleston. I was a delighted to see the blue ceilings again in Key West last week. I have been told a number of reasons why the light blue color is used. Wasps and other insects will not nest in an area they think is the sky. Blue paint reflects more light and the front rooms of a house painted as such ... View the Post

Whats In Your Lunchbox

Today I embark on yet another semester of school.

Little Laura Ingalls (brunette with pink yarn bows) enjoying kindergarten lunch at Lincoln School. Whats In Your Lunchbox I met Karen last semester in my CAD (computer-aided drafting) class. We bonded due to the fact that we were: Two middle-aged women ... View the Post

Over Embellished Yes It Is Possible

Although the subject matter is a month late (or perhaps just eleven months EARLY) I thought you might get a kick out of a recent crafting session I experienced. I bought this advent calendar during the after Christmas sales. It was my intention to give it a bit more "pizazz". Over Embellished Yes It Is Possible.  Over Embellished Yes It Is Possible Out came the scrapbooking paper, embellishments, and glue. I spent HOURS on the layout. (When it is actually Christmas time I will write a ... View the Post

Pes (Peace) to the World

This post was inspired by six-year-old Sweet Boy and his wish for Pes (Peace) to the World. The Drum Major Instinct If you want to be important—wonderful.  If you want to be recognized—wonderful. If you want to be great—wonderful. But recognize that he who is greatest among you shall be your servant. That's a new definition of greatness.   And this morning, the thing that I like about it: by giving that definition of greatness, it means that everybody can be great, (Everybody) ...

Sewing Room Makeover

I recently received a business call from a woman who said she had rearranged her sewing room until she was blue in the face and still could not get it to look right. She said that she had a $300 budget and asked if I could I help. She needed a Sewing Room Makeover. Sewing Room Makeover At the consultation I immediately knew it would be a fun job, but very challenging. She had several knick-knacks that were very precious to her and they would all have to be incorporated in the room ... View the Post
