HAPPY ST PATRICK'S DAY :)

Hi everyone,

I wish all of you  a great day. 

What's that little green thing hopping around in the carpet?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME......YESTERDAY

Hi everyone,

Well, yesterday was my birthday. Do you want to know what I did? 

We slept in a bit. Then I got up gave hubby meds, checked his blood sugar, gave him insulin, made him breakfast and helped him get dressed.

Then his bath aid came and gave him a shave and he brushed his teeth and took off in his power chair to get the mail and visit with neighbors downstairs.

Then I swept the floor and carpet ( vac not working), cleaned the stove, cleared of a counter and put stuff in storage, bath aid helped clean the stove burners and went to get a few things at the store. I did a few loads of laundry.

Then we made hubby lunch. Went to hunt down a trash dumpster for some big bags of trash in the car and I couldn't dump here coz dumpster were locked shut. grrrr  I visited my mom in the nursing home. And came back and made dinner. And at about 10 pm got a little nap.

Then gave hubby meds, checked his blood sugar, gave him insulin and put him to bed. Whew!

Ok, I'm done.

That was my Friday the 13th birthday. The only other time I remember a Friday the 13th birthday was when I was a kid.  All I got for my birthday was underwear. :(

LOL...take care my friends

SPRING FORWARD

Have a lovely weekend everyone.

REMEMBER THESE FAB FASHIONS OF THE 60s AND 70s?

I went on stroll down memory lane reading a friend's post yesterday and decided to take another stroll. Does anyone remember these Fab Fashions?  :)

These are Go-Go Boots. Why they are so named I have no idea. I had a pair like this in grade school. They looked better than these kinda shape-less things. lol

These other items I had at different stages in my young life. I don't know what order they came in.

Bell bottom pants.

Hot pants (I had a pair like the ones with suspenders) I wore them with a gold long sleeved blouse. The sleeves  were kinda poofy at the bottom with button cluffs.

Sizzler Dresses..Cute short dresses with matching underwear or shorts.

The two pictures above are of Gunny Sax dresses. The spelling may be wrong. The blue one was like one I had only the white on the skirt was wider and crocheted.  The white dress is kinda like the one I had. Mine had a very full skirt, thicker material and very modest. These I wore to church in my late teens in the mid to late 70s

Well there is just a few of the frightening styles of the 70s. LOL

Wow! I wouldn't be caught dead in these things now. Well maybe the bell bottoms wouldn't be too bad. And the long dresses were lovely.

Well I guess that's it for now. Take care my friends.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

THIS THAT AND FARMHOUSE PRIMS :)

Hi everyone,

Well the Seattle Seahawks did NOT win the Superbowl. I'm not thrilled about that but there's always next year.  :)

We have been getting spring weather here lately and its not even springtime...what's up with that? lol  Looks like the NE part of the country is getting everyone's winter this year. Maybe the little picture of the snowmen doing their snow dance will send some snow our way, ya think? :)

We are getting rain. Washington is famous for it's rain. And we have had big winds for the last couple of days. Ok, I have a question, I know there are snow blowers and leaf blowers...are there such things and leaf vacs?  All the landscape people do is blow the leaves off to one side and don't haul them away. Then the winds come and blow them all back.  Makes no sense to me. lol

Now, lately I have been wanting to do different crafts and found a new friend at www.farmhouseprims.blogspot.com Her name is Lecia and she is doing needle punch. I hadn't heard of it before and liked her work. We have emailed back and forth a few times. She was very encouraging when I said I would like to try it. She's a very sweet person. And very talented. Stop by and check out her blog if you like

I am also getting interested in latch hook again, spool knitting and cross stitching. Uh oh! Look out. lol Hopefully I can get good at these things and get my business blog up and running and sell some things. I hope that this will be the case as I have spent quite a bit of money buying supplies for each of these things.  And I have been watching a lot of how-to videos on youtube. lol

Well, gotta run. It is late, 1:17 am, and we have to get up early. Mel's dialysis appt is in the morning. He is doing well with it lately. Well, a lot better than at other times. :)

Take care and have a great week.

WOOHOO !! ALMOST SUPERBOWL TIME

Well, it's almost here!

 

Seemed like EVERYONE was wearing Seattle Seahawks clothes today. 

 

Sunday evening around 6pm Pacific time will be the kick off. They will be playing the New England Partiots.

 

It would be great to see Seattle win again this year.

 

GO SEAHAWKS !!
