During Our Travels Today

Today Al and I took a ride around Fontana's South Lake Shore Dr., and through Lake Geneva, and Como. All in Wisconsin. This Bear was by the Lake Como area kind of behind the old Interlaken resort.

I made Al turn the Jeep around so that we could go back and get this shot. I LOVE fields of wild flowers.

This was taken off of Linn Rd. Lake Geneva

And this was the beautiful sky today. Taken out of my open sun roof.
Hope you all had a beautiful Sunday.

Personalizing Our Home

The best $50 I spent when I went to Sams Club and purchased this 6 ft. table. Just big enough for my vinyl cutting assembly line.

And this is my front door greeting. I love the lighting and softness in this picture as well.

My Boyfriend attempting the water skiing

In the beginning of this video is our neighbors daughter showing Al how it's done. It didn't help much though....you'll see! LOL

Scent of the Month for Scentsy

Order yours now.... here!

Lots going on these days between sewing, preparing for a rummage sale, work. And trying to get my Scentsy buisness off to a good start.
Sunday Al and I went to a Flea Market. I had my eyes peeled for only one certain item and that was Wooden Spools. Al found them first. I love them.

This and That and Then some....

Hello....I'm still alive..LOL! Lot's of crazy things going on these days...doing a different job, working on a quilt, joined a sewing club, getting ready for a 3 day scrapbooking event in Oregon Illinois. Trying to follow a W.W. program. Lord help me. And now....I have the seasonal allergy going on. Not liking that at all.
Hope everyone is doing fine.

I love these pillows....

I drove to Chicago today to go to the Paper Source. Never been there before...then I stumbled upon an Anthropologie store and seen these beautiful pillows but couldn't see myself spending $88 for 1 pillow. I wished I would have gotten a better shot. But I do have a mental image of what they looked like. I want to try making one some day.

Edited: I found one to show you on there website.


Speaking of making things. I was at the Sewing machine store the other day and drooled over getting one of these. But this will be a long time coming.

Have a great Friday everyone!

Happy Valentines Day!!!!!!

Hope everybody is having a Happy Valentines Day!
(this is a tag I made to go over a hole that my cat put into my brand new top, I made it in photoshop and then printed it out on to iron on fabric paper, then ironed it on my top and sewed it on....it's very cute and it just so happens to be located at the top of my top in the back where your label would go anyway. I attached it to the outside of the top)

Here is a little web cam photo of me in my studio... trying to become a scarf wearer. What do you think? I get so tired of wearing t-shirts everyday at my job so I'm stepping out of my comfort zone and doing some more dressy type of attire. I've never been a huge necklace wearing type of person let alone a scarf. Does it make me look like a teacher? Or somebody older than 36? They all look so cute on the maniqins at the store. Maybe it's because there smaller IDK. Anyways....

Last night I had mom and dad over for dinner. I made Chicken Stir-Fry. So yummy..and for a little surprise I drove to Moys (Chinese Restruant) and bought egg rolls. Mom brought over a cake for dessert called Better Than Sex Cake...It was sooo delicious. If you've never had it you need to try it....Very sweet. For entertainment I had bought the Micheal Jackson "This is It" movie and we watched that. It was a very nice evening. And now that I have a dishwasher I don't have to do all of those stinkin' dishes...LOL!

Today or I should say this evening Al is going to take me out for dinner. The Bar/Restraunt up the street is having a special this weekend Steak and Lobster for $20 with Champain to boot. Can't say no to that. This is at the Wagon Wheel.


I donated by downloading from I tunes both the song and the video. It's Awesome!!!

HAPPY DANCE*HAPPY DANCE!!!!!!

I am so stinking excited right now....for the first time ever I have a dishwasher!!! It took the whole week to get her up and running. We had to remove a cabinet, move some plumbing, add electrical, shim and whatever else.... I just loaded her up and she is doing her first load as I write. Your probably going to laugh at me...my boyfriend said to me while his buddy was standing in the kitchen..."Well load her up" I said, "I will but I want to be alone." I even got the instruction manual out so to make sure I loaded everything correctly. And my goodness the options it gives you for the cleaning cycle. Now hopefully nothing will come out melted. Anyways she is doing her thing now. The funny thing is I just stood in my kitchen and starred at it for the first 10 min of it's cycle, eating a claussen dill pickle. I'm so giddy....
Have a Great Weekend!!!
