The quickest, fastest,
bestest REMEDY to a messy

Mr. & Mrs.

Look who knocked on my door the other day....

 (photos courtesy of Jenn)

These two little cuties were created for me by  

Inspired by my husband (the bloak from UK) and me (the American Girl next door), Jenn cleverly painted our portraits on these bowling pins that stand about 4 inches high. 

It gave me a giggle to see how even our plump figures are just about accurate here!!!   Don't you just love our bathing suits!!!  We look like such tourists don't we!!!  :) 

I love our expressions... 
I've always got something curious on my mind. And my husband with the blank stare in hopes that I don't bring up that something curious! :)  So right on there!!!.

Please check out Jenn's blog here and her Etsy shoppe here.  You'll fall in love with all her goodies and treats!!!

BIG thanks to my friend Jenn!
And thanks for taking the time to see what I've been up too!!!

News Flash: Summer Is Here


I heard the Weather Guy say that it was "officially" the FIRST DAY of Summer. Uuhhh... I beg to differ! 

Way down here in Florida, Summer skipped Spring.  But Summer has a way of doing that. 
Although, we really can't complain... we have our freshwater springs, lazy rivers and lakes, sandy seashores and backyard pools to keep us chilled and  as if that is not enough, we have our corner slurpee stops, icecream shoppes and snowcone stands.

"Life is Good!" - some guy's t-shirt

So go on grab your suits.. your snorkles.. and your SPF!!!  And have a COOL summer!!

Thanks for taking a peek!

Home Clean Home!

Just finished up a little spring cleaning in the Monster and Goblin's rooms.


  We now have enough random LEGOS to do an addition on the house and I might knit a sweater with all the dust bunnies I found!  :)

Imagine

I've been artfully upcycling all kinds of thrifty finds.  First it was a world globe and a rocking horse and then....


...a Guitar


This Beatles Inspired Mixed Media Guitar was created for a  Rock N' Roll Exhibit in downtown Orlando.  I really think I LoVe it.  And happily (and a little sadly) somebody else did too as it SOLD! But I am thrilled that it has a new home!!!


My Thrift Shopping List keeps growing...
1. Globe  
2. Rock'n Horseys  
3. Guitars
4. TBA :)
 Thanks for taking a peek!!!

Desperately Seeking Sanity!



 Where does the time go?

I ask this question seriously, in hopes of an answer that will change my life!   There are those of you out there that LOOK like you've got it all together. Seriously DO YOU? And if so HOW?  I NEED to know this secret.  

How do you run a 24HR Maid & Laundry Operation, a Recreational Shuttle Service and a Gourmet Kitchen, work out everyday, create brilliant master pieces, write a daily BLOG, work a "real" part-time job, walk the dog, pet the cat and be the bestest MOMMY and SEXIEST wife EVER????    

HELP a girl out... if you know the secret to stuffing 72 hours worth of sweat, LoVe and tears into 12 hours... I am listening!!!!  :)

Words to LiVe by in 2011! xox

 
   "see no evil   
hear no evil
say no evil"

Unless you pinky promise to never tell a soul!
----------------------------------------------
" A little bird told me..."
beware of that little bird who told you... she probably ate the tequila worm!
----------------------------------------------

"love thy neighbor"
....even if their dog poops in your yard!
----------------------------------------------

"dare to be curious..."
even if you don't have nine lives.  i'd rather die regretting what i did, than what i didn't do!!! 
----------------------------------------------

"never applogize with flowers"
...it makes them stink
----------------------------------------------

 "wish upon a star"
... for shoes! :)

----------------------------------------------
 
wishing you all a merry little new year!
