little bit o' this and a little bit o' that

all the ladies are giving themselves challenges and are doing so well with them. congrats to martha and to lori.  those two ladies have it goin on!  and a big thanks to them, too, for being both motivators and inspiration.

well..my vacation begins next week.  thanks to them, i have decided to spend some of it getting organized.  i have racks for the closet and everything!  and this desk - something has to give - perhaps the landfill.  it's littered with paper, avon orders, ink pens, make up, etc.

it looked so great when i first moved it into the bedroom. and it has become a catch-all.  the good news is, there are no articles of clothing on it.

interesting thing happened at work yesterday.  i was headed out for a break when one of the officers decided to accompany me.  he walked and talked and asked me if i had ever heard of Clyde's - I have, indeed.  It's an auction barn where, every Tuesday night, you can listen to blue grass music played by local musicians, and the price of admission is to bring a dish for the table. everybody sits, eats, visits...listens to music.  WELL - turns out the officer in question plays anything with strings, and does so at Clyde's.  He invited me to come listen and i am GOING!  Have always wanted to, just never had the time, but...come this Tuesday night, i'll make time.

:-D

Way ta' go Spice!*...

You reminded me that years ago, I worked for Welcome Wagon briefly.  I really enjoyed it for the most part, but storing the odds & ends when the kids were little began to become quite the chore.  Just finished *coming out of the closet*...removing summer clothes to winter. And then wouldn't ya' know it got hot for a few days.  

Enjoy your time at Clydes...sounds like a hoot!*...heck enjoy the entire week..it'll fly.

Heading south myself for a family reunion in the morning.  Looking forward to that authentic southern cookin'.. and some guitar strummin' from my country cousins.

c'ya soon..
Hugs,
Tina*

oh cleaning, just what I need to do too.  Need some more energy though...I think I'd like to move and start all over.  When I moved in here 20 years ago I had 93 boxes of crap....well, now I probably have 1,000 boxes of crap..they all met in a corner and procreated. LOL....enjoy your music thingy...Sandi

Awww {{blushing}} shucks, ma'am.  Thank you for the compliment.  But I bow to Martha's superiority.  If I were working full time, there is no way I could do what she does at home!  I hope you get a lot of things done while you're on vacation, but be sure to relax and goof off some, too!  I've heard of Clydes; maybe you've mentioned the place before.  I'd love to go there sometime.  I like that kind of place.  Have fun!
