From Australia


A few weeks ago I received an email from Yvonne saying that she found something she thought I might like and wanted to send it to me. I didn't know what it could be until yesterday when the package arrived.

Remember when I said I liked pendants? Well, Yvonne sent me three! They are so me! I can't wait to wear them. I might have to plan my outfit around the necklaces.

And, if that wasn't nice enough, she also sent


a bag for Spenser! It is so stinking cute! I love it. Seriously love it. It is exquisitely made. I would try to use it myself, but Spenser has proudly claimed it and loves it. Can you blame her?

Thanks, again, Yvonne! You made my day.

In other news, I'm fearing Sawyer is sick. It might have been a fluke, but he threw up in the middle of the night. He is not feverish at all. He nursed well this morning and is sitting in the high chair now. Except, he's not eating his beloved Cheerios and bananas. That's not a good sign. My poor baby.

What super mail! I think you DO need to plan your wardrobe around those pendants!

That bag is so cute. I'm not the least bit surprised that Spenser loves it.

And, poor baby. I hope he's better soon!

Love the cherry fabric in the previous post. Perfect!

Reusable Swiffer WetJet Cloths

Image
I promised myself that, when I bought a box of Swiffer WetJet refills at the wholesale club, it would be the last box I bought. Something had to be done. Now, to be honest, part of the reason was to help the environment, but the other part was because I was tired of running out of those darn things. I took some towels, folded them in half cut them into 5" widths. (The towel was just about 25" or so from side to side when flat.) Then I cut two 5" pieces of elastic and serged it all together. Two layers of toweling and two elastic strips. That's it. (The finished piece was approximately 4.75" x 12.") Within minutes I had a stack of eight. Slide them on and mop away. You will have a clean floor and have saved one more thing from ending up in the landfill. Now, if I can just do something about the cleaning liquid ... Something environmentally-friendly, economical, and won't cause further pain to my arthritic back.

39

It's that time of year again. The one that seems to come faster and closer every year. Yes, today I am 39. (That means I'm almost 40! Aaaahh!) To keep in tradition with years' past , I decided to do a list of things you might not know about me . (My best friend loves these posts, so this is in honor of her. You know who you are.) I ran 1 3/4 miles this morning. I gained 3-4 pounds after Sawyer weaned himself this year. Since starting to run, Joe has said that my thighs are "as tight as when we were first married." I didn't realize my thighs weren't tight. Hmmm. I guess six kids can do that to you. I need a new mattress. We bought our last mattress when I was in labor with Carter . That was ten years ago. We also bought a set of bunk beds that day. I want a new sofa. Actually two new sofas. I'm waiting until Sawyer is potty-trained. I'm planning on training him as soon as school lets out in June. Sometimes I plan ahead. Sometimes I procrasti
