Take me out to the Ballgame......




A good night for baseball, didnt even need a jacket........only one problem, the dodgers lost!
Oh well..........
Tracey, Blake will love your store, you ROCK!!!!! He is lucky to have YOU!!!!
Buy that house, I LOVE the walk way!!!!
You would create a haven for the birds, just like your momma!
Tomorrow I go to Aunt Honeys for knitting lessons.......maybe someday I will knit more than a scarf?
Good luck on Wednesday, you will shine!

Lazy Sunday.............


The makings of a perfect lazy sunday, a new book, a cup of tea, and sunshine........problem is, the "world of vera" awaits...thats right, I have an event, BUT I can enjoy the morning for a few hours.....
Trace, I dont think that is a canary, but I will look it up in my bird book...canaries are very delicate, they cant live outside in the cold.
Marie says hi, shes now working for Smashbox instead of Bobbie Brown....
I will be going down to the beach to aunt Honeys house tuesday to take some knitting lessons, cant wait......I might also have her teach me how to make granny squares, they seem to be popular again, in cool new colors.........like watermelon and lime green!!!!
OK, Im off to the shower.........love your "tree man".........wish I had a tree big enough for one, lolol.............miss you tons!!!!

My obsessions.........







OK...did I have to bid on EVERY bingo auction..........now I have enough cards to make more mini albums that I know what to do with....ebay here I come...why do I have to gene that says I have to have hoards of things, more crap.....story of my life!
My latest obsession is getting those darn orioles to hang out more, thus the grape jelly and oranges, which after research I found out is thier fav! Yesterday when I Joe and I were having coffee on the patio the most colorful beautiful bird I have ever seen came and landed, it was bright yellow with an orange head, I looked it up, its a Tanager, I want it back!!! I have never seen a bird like that in So Cal....its was such a gift! Glenni, remember the red flowers that were about to open when you were here, they are beautiful now.......
Tracey, about those swollen ankles, drink more water and elevate them, but think you may need more H20..Im so proud of you! Have fun in NJ..........
Omg did you guys see the Sopranos, I thought Tony was going to knock off Paulie, I was almost sick to my stomach with suspense!!!!!!!!!!
Have a great day!!!!!!!

Framed it!!!!


Finished my page, I got some aqua floss and stitched on the pics.......love this layout!!!! Michaels has scrapbook frames at 50% off, so I loaded up! I loved this so much I dont want to hide it away in an album!

Don't laugh.......



ok, I know you guys back east get birds like this all the time in your yards, but here in SO CAL, they are few and far between, unless you are in the mountains! This beautiful Oriole graced me with her ( I looked her up so I know its a her) presense this morning, along with a California thrasher, that I couldnt get a pic of. The trasher comes every year, but I dont see orioles very often..........Im going to get an oriole feeder TODAY!!!!!
On a happy note, Im 7 pounds down from last Monday, Im happy...........I know it will be a slow go from now on, the first week is always big, but I VOW to stick with it, I have promised myself too many rewards to give it up, lol...........
The sun is finally peaking thru, we have had rain, but not near as much as you have had in CT..........I send warm rays your way.........happy Monday!

A beautiful planted flowerbed...


Thanks to Glenni...I dont always put my guests to work, but she wanted to, really, and I was glad to sit and watch!
Now I have a living reminder of the goods times we had, that all too soon came to an end...(we really need TWO weeks!)
Glenni, I miss u already!!!!
Tracey, about the squirrals, Glenni says to embrace them, get a verman proof bird feeder, and let them co-exist...so, I say, embrace the little f*&^kers..........
Kip says hi.........
