NOT FLYING YET


Well I took it easy last night and just nibbled on candies while playing games online. And today I was off and running with cohort Nessa. She joined me at Curves and then treated me to lunch out. How I enjoyed. I know I kept her from doing her daily housework and should be beat with a wet noodle for it. But it was lovely to have the sun shining on us and to do a girls day out. After lunch we stalked a local antique mall and found some wonderful deals. I even found my gifts for my DH and CG for Valentine's Day. Thanks Nessa for the loan to get them. I will giving you your money back tomorrow. (yeah I got out without my wallet)

Tomorrow I want to start my routine of being more organized and efficient. Hoping to get more done around here. At least better at it. My DH laughed and asked if he had to do any of it. I said "No, of course not!" Nessa says that I could not get more organized but I know I can do a better job of things. I am adapting "Flylady" to my own home. Do you fly?

What kind of things do you struggle with? Me, myself? Personal care. It seems if I am to take care of something for someone else--great! But as far as I go--hummm-well, I tend to just over look myself. Going as far as hardly ever even looking in a mirror at myself. I can brush my teeth and hair and never look up. Amazing isn't it?

I also want to be better about cleaning the areas I miss. Like the baseboards, ceiling fans and door jams. They always look so grungy. I am good at a quick spit and a polish but look just a bit more and you would say "What does she do all day?" So I m putting myself on a schedule and seeing if it works just a bit better.

How do you do it all? What are your down falls? How have your achieved your goals in caring for your home? ANY SUGGESTIONS?

Valentine Dreaming

I was Valentine Dreaming.
Wondering what I would pick out if I was to receive a Surprise at the door?

I know we all say that we don't look for flowers.
But you feel so pampered when they arrive.
Knowing that your the only one that is loved so much by your own special person.

Also do we buy flowers for the men in our life?
If so, what kind?

All of this had me daydreaming.

So I skipped over to Valentine's Gifts.
I started to figure out what kind of flowers would I want.
If I was looking to describe myself would it be with roses, daisies or even a bird of paradise?


Am I a lil' bit traditional?
And would I want a living plant?
If so maybe these mini roses would do the trick.

Or do I just like all the goodies instead.
And a tower of candies with a cuddly teddy would do?

I think I could fall for this abundance of flowers.
I don't think I could count all the many flowers in this arrangement.
But they sure are spectacular.

Or a non conformist in the blue posies instead.
Of course, the lil huggy bear sure does do the trick too.

Who goes wrong with traditional red roses?
Especially if accompanied by Godiva chocolates.


I really like these but I think that I would like to have a surprise more.
To see what my honey does?
I am sure it won't be flowers.

But a girl can dream.

Well what would you pick out?
For who?
And what are your "love" day's traditions?
