I got a surgery date yesterday.
I now know the date of the beginning of a new me.
I am so ready.
To start
To recreate a new me.
Please be happy for me.
I did not jump into this blind.
I have thought about this for over 2 years.
I prayed, watch others, researched and ask many questions.
I am nervous.
I have to admit.
It is life changing.
A new me
starting
March 9th

More things I like,
a suitcase chair?

Now cute, and unusual, I like it!
Looking at all the different blogs and web sites,
it seems everyone has an option about the
HOT
new 2010 decorating color.
But most have predicted a shade of lavender.
Although purple is my least favorite color,
I just hang in there.
Red will be hot again.


Pottery Barn
Craft Room
A dream

YES, I went Junkin today.
I don't like junkin this time of the year.
Our thrift stores clean out and start over.
So the shelves are empty.
I spent less than $5.00

But I did find this new Magazine.
I have been waiting for it.....
It is worth every penny.

I found this picture from a blog tonight and I instantly thought Summer.
We have had 3 days with temperatures around 50 or 60 degrees.
So we are thinking Spring.




This is the day I am going to try and do a better job in posting on this blog.
Home Pc is still sick and so I will not be able to download my own pictures.
I found these on another blog, I think I need em


And I didn't have all my fav blogs on my lap top so I have been hunting.
Found Sassy Trash and Arsty Fartsy, love em too.....
We partied all day Saturday and I wish I could show you the pics.
But soon maybe.
Happy Monday!

As I posted last time, we are in Party mode at our house.
Our grandsons, ALL have birthdays in February.
SO we are having a carnival party for the two youngest.
It is all in the planning, this is my part.
In my head I see it in the back yard,
children running and skipping and having a great time.
Since we have had a wet winter, maybe we should host it in the driveway.
A more solid base, gravel, but getting muddy.
So we have a wrap around porch and we can put it there.
That is perfect, covered porch.
So as the weather man says it is going to be cold too, we have moved it to the basement.
We aint moving any more.
Or I hope
stay tuned.

Well, we are having computer problems.
Laptops are working but Home PC won't go online,
so I can't download pictures.
It is such a bummer.
But we are in full blown party mode.
All the grandsons are having Birthday's in the next 2 weeks.
We are having a carnival for the two youngest
and the 12 year old wants a boy girl party.
Scary, right?
I will be taking pictures in hopes of getting them on line soon.

OH my goodness, I slept for 9 hours last night...
What is with that?
This sleeping thing is going to cut into my computer time in the morning,
I won't be able to look at all those blogs.
Ha
But I slept so much better last night, but I still have a sore place on my cheek,
I will get use to it and then on to better things.
Have a good Friday.

Welcome me to the world of a C-Pap.

I slept for the first night with this mask.

I feel like a freak, and I was afraid for Hubby's live to ask him how I looked, or look in a mirrow.

So I just imagined I looked like this...



These are mask for children to take breathing treatments.
Grandson #3 had to take one recently and he was so cute.
His was a frog.
So maybe if they want me to wear this mask, they could put a pink crown on it, or have colors, I would choose turquoise, with brown polka dots.
At least if I thought I looked good, it might make me feel better.

Sometime I get something in the store that makes me all giddy and excited.
I have a vendor that wants to bring a claw foot tub, I hope it will not let me down.
I think they are so interesting and I am so excited about decorating with it.
Stay tuned, cause we need the men to get together and bring it, so it may take awhile.
It doesn't take much to excite me.....sometimes.
