how 'bout the Pack!

Thanks to R. Wilson & crew, State beat the Tar Holes on Saturday. It was a great game. Although State didn’t have its best season, you kinda forget about the rest of the year as long as we can win that last game.

Here’s a peek at what we ate on Saturday. It was so yummy!!!

oh happy day!

I was on the search last night. You know, the one where you're looking through your old pocketbooks for stuff (tampons) and guess what I found??? $40!!! Yay for me! It was still in the envelope my parents gave me for Christmas 2 years ago. I can't believe I never spent it! That's so not like me ;)

Have a great day!

my first transformation

I bought this greenish chest of drawers at a yard sale about a month ago. It had a price tag on it of $35. When I walked up the owners driveway to see what he had in his garage (because it was raining that day), I noticed a sign on his mailbox that said "name your prise". No, I didn't spell that wrong! That's what he handwrote on a piece of cardboard. I don't think he's from around here. I think he's from another country. I only had $18 dollars with me at the time so I asked him if he would take $15 and he said YES!!! I motioned to my husband to pull the car closer, paid the man, loaded this cutie in my car and was on my way.







I FINALLY got around to working on this thing this past week and had an idea in my head and was hoping it would look as good as I imagined it.

Here's what it looks like now:






I used Glidden "Pebble White" and Ralph Lauren "Tea-Stained". I'm so pleased I think I'll sell it! ha ha
