Today is just one of those days

  when you don't want to do anything, but at home.  I ask Michael last night if we could just stay home this morning instead of getting out.  So few Saturday mornings we stay home, because we normally get out to go to yard sales or such in the summer time.  But all week I have been thinking about staying home and getting caught up on getting some computer stuff done and just relaxing.  Actually going to read some more of my book in a little bit.

I have added a whole batch of new links to Home Simple Home, for weeks now I have been finding some new places that I just love.  Several are very inspirational for home decorating and I can just sit  and gaze at the pictures for what seems like hours. Kinda like I do my country magazines. Which I need to go through and dispose of some, and organize the others.  That has been on my to do list for awhile.  I might actually do it tonight while watching tv. 

While I sitting here this morning and cruising the net I found many things that I would love to do....but when I saw this I new I needed to do these things first, so that I will not forget what it is I would like to do.    First, I think I need to create myself a mood board.  Do you know what a mood board is?  It is a board that you simple put all your loves on.  There are several at Decor 8. As well as create myself a decorating binder.  See this is the kind of things I do when I have time.  I get creative and want to do things.  Guess I could carry this binder a little further and make it my "dream home binder".  How fun is that? 

Let's see what else is going on with me.  My eyes are doing great. I can't tell you the difference the enhancement done for me.  I highly recommend it if you aren't completely happy with your Lasik procedure.  Don't get me wrong I am so glad that I had the procedure done, but apparently my right eye was only doing about 70% of what it was suppose to be doing.  Even at that, that was much better than what I had seen my whole life.  So wasn't complaining, but still wanted to try for better.  So like I said...I am very happy with the outcome.

Last night Michael and I met up with some friends and went to play basket bingo.  And I didn't win a thing.  Actually no one at our table did.  Boo Hoo...but it was for a good cause so hopefully all the money I spent wasn't for waste. I wanted to give you a idea of what a basket bingo is like.  You usually pay to play 20 games with 20 baskets filled (like these in the picture) and if you win the game you get the basket.  They normally have special games where you have to buy extra cards to play which brings in lots more money.  The room is usually packed.... below kinda gives you a idea of how the game rooms are set up and how serious the women are that play.   Now these aren't from any bingo's I have actually gone too, but they are the same.  Basket bingo is taken seriously here.  Usually these are played as a type of fundraiser for a family in need, a school program that needs sponsored, etc.  It brings in lots of money at one time. Now you know the rest of the story.

Well, I have been working on this post for a while, but my phone keeps ringing so will close.  Hope you all have a great rest of the day.

Hugs!

Another Lazy day!

Do you remember these days? Your first crush at Valentines Day? Well it's that time to remember that special someone in your life again. I kinda feel like this little girl this week. With Michael being away for a few days last week, it gave me and always does a new perspective on our relationship and just how much he is a part of me. I missed him terribly. I am not sure what I am going to do yet for Valentines Day for him, especially with it falling during the middle of the week, but will try to do something special. I usually get my kids a small box of chocolates and a card. Nothing big. But I like to let them know that they are also my "little valentines" too and always will be. You got any special plans? Care to share?

I am feeling kinda out of sorts today....Can't really get myself going. I am sure it is partly because Aunt Flo came to visit and she always messes me up. Yesterday I couldn't get motivated and didn't get anything done I had planned, although I did get to Basket Bingo last night. Michael and I had planned on going with some friends so we kept that date, but I was dragging . It was at Tori's school to support one of their activities. Anyhow, I didn't play very well, got close a couple of times to winning, but didn't. Michael actually won a game but so did someone else so that had a play off and Michael got a consolation ticket. Which didn't get us anything. Oh well....but I had bought some raffle tickets when I went in, and look what I won. At the end of the night when they raffled off the baskets, I won this newspaper basket. I have wanted it for a long time, but never wanted to put out the money for it. So needless to say I was thrilled. It was filled with games. So I think I will keep the games and donate name to toys for tots at Christmas.

Well I had great intentions of working on my Homemaking site this weekend, but with the way that I am feeling I am not sure I will get to it. It is getting difficult to sit here for long periods of time. So depending on how I feel later, I might get to it and I might not. I am thinking about grabbing some meds and laying down to get the pressure off my back. Engross myself in some reading.

I realize this isn't much of a post, but I am hurting sitting here, so think I am just going to close...and just rest. All my thoughts are very cluttered at the moment so I know anything I write isn't going to make much sense.

Hope you all have a blessed Sunday!
