random randomness.

its always exciting to see happy mail on the front porch.
it was from another blogger that i did a halloween swap with.
it was loaded!
 her 3 yr old made homemade doggy treats for miley and sent her a festive collar.
she gave both a "paws up"
this is what i sent her.

*******************
i decided it was time to update my profile pic.
i wore my 31 bits jewelry from meg's party
.COLOR LOVE.

****************
found this at dollar tree.
it didn't lie...it is awesome.

***********************
miss marley has stayed here a couple of times over the last couple weeks.
one morning i rolled over to find her next to me in bed.
of course i didn't have the heart to kick her out.
so it will be my fault if she tries it at home.

***********************
not so happy mail.
really?  again??  ugh???

************************
my 7 yr old cat finally purred for the first time.
she sounded like she had know idea what she was doing.

****************************
the weather has been just weird enough that,  i turn the heated seat on while the sunroof is open.

**********************
proof that football and home decor can co-exist.

**********************
my husband has won TWO umbrellas in the last couple of weeks.
one from the local news, and one at a golf tourney.
if he wins another, i'm sending him out to buy a lottery ticket.

**********************
i couldn't take our disgusting shower any longer, so i spent one whole day
digging out the old dingy caulking and rehabbing  the whole thing...door and all.
it involved a paint scraper, sawhorses, and toxic cleaners.
for realz.

********************
i found some cute fall sweaters at the thrift store.

***********************
years ago i sold a cabinet a our garage sale and have regretted it ever since.
i missed it dearly.
i found it sitting in our local antique store this week and bought it back.
it missed me too.
and i may have squealed like a girl when i saw it.

*********************
the cat's new sleeping spot.

**********************
i always eat chinese food with chop sticks.
always.

********************
before long,we will be wading through leaves to get to the garage.
this is 5 minutes after i swept the driveway.

***************
we leave in a week for someplace that's fabulous...
and requires a passport.
:)

  8. Hi Amy- I love your blog! I have been looking back through some of your posts and found the really cute "candy" outdoor decorations you made for xmas last year. You mention using spray glitter but I can't find any- what brand makes spray glitter and any suggestions where to find it? Thanks!
