All Business Like.

this post is for Thursday, March 10.

Today I rocked out my new fleece with the business logo on it. I love fleeces, but now that I have one sporting the Hass Inspections logo, I love them even more. Need a home inspection? Let me know, I know of a great home inspector!

New Beginnings.

this post is for Wednesday, March 9.

Today is the first day of Lent. I have decided to really take part in the lenten season, for many reasons. But tonight was a special day. My Mom became a member of my Dad's church. She had her first communion and now has a place to call her home church. It was a great evening of service, dinner, and reception. The cake above was made by my Grandma (my Mom's mom), and it was great!

Wishing it was warm..

this post is for Tuesday, March 8.

I am wishing for it to be warm and the snow to melt, so much, that I went out and bought sandles. I figured, if I buy them, the weather will be more "springy." Now I must admit, it was snowing and the wind was blowing tonight, so not sure how close we are to this "warmer" weather.

Gerbs, Part II.

This post is for Monday, March 7.

Gerb flowers, take 2. Yes, I did get a new bunch of flowers at work, but they are still for the same reason as the last set. I am sad to report that the flowers from last week were all wilted and pretty much dead, so the florist sent me new ones! Yeay me!

All Sorts of Goodness.

I love to decorate cakes, but when I found out about "cake pops," I found a new love. Nothing like cake and frosting in a ball on a stick, all decorated! I have taken the wilton cake deco classes, which have been super fun, but I think I am going to dabble in this art to see where it will take me.

I see you.

This post is for Saturday, March 5.

Today I went to a pancake breakfast with my parents and we brought my Grandma along. In front of her house, she has a deer statue. I thought it was funny that only the head was sticking out. Hopefully our snow count for the winter is nearing its end.. but we'll see.

The Life of a Dog.

this post is for Friday, March 4.

When I grow up, I want to be just like my beagle. Nothing like lounging out on a huge fluffy pillow to spend a Friday afternoon!

Gerbs, My Fav.

this post is for Thursday, March 3.

I was very lucky to get flowers from my hubby today. I love love love gerbs, so this was a very nice surprise to my day.

I have the fever..

this post is for Wednesday, March 2.

Yes, this is a picture of Justin Bieber, on the movie screen. I am very happy to say that I attended this movie, and it was awesome. A co-worker and I went to the 3D, Directors Fan Cut version and it was a blast. I got the fever, for Justin Bieber :)

Sweet, Peppers!

this post is for Tuesday, March 1.

I LOVE peppers. Last year, when I was in Oregon, I found these same small, sweet peppers. I loved them so much that I actually brought 2 bags home with me on the airplane. Needless to say security thought I was somewhat wierd, but hey, I wanted them. I was so exicted when I saw them at Sam's club this year!

Zonnked Out.

this post is for Monday, February 28.

Want to see what an almost 2 year old, completely zonked out Springer Spaniel looks like? Look above. Dutchess was so tired from this past weekend, she laid right next to me, head and arms hanging off of the couch. Lights out.

Best Fur-Friends.

this post is for Sunday, February 27.

This weekend, we doggy sat for a co-workers dog. It was a ton of fun. Usally Dutchess has a counterpart around somewhere, but my Dad has taken custody of my Beagle for the winter, so Dutchess has been all by herself unless someone comes to visit. All weekend Dutchess and Chimmi played like they were life-time friends. We even joked they were boyfriend and girlfriend! :)

Amazing How People Give.

this post is for Saturday, February 26.

The committee and myself did a purse / jewelry drive for the fundraiser we have at the end of March. One of the hotels that donated rocked it out. The pticutre above is kind of hard to depict its exact contents, but it is some awesome jewelry that is going to look awesome in some great purses!

Let's Get Ready to Bowl!

this post is for Friday, February 25.

I haven't bowled in years. I was so excited to finally get to bowl. Needless to say, my first round, sucked. We got through those 10 frames and moved on. Then came the 2nd set of frames. As you can see, I was doing pretty great. (I am the first "j) We got to the 6th frame, where # 4 was 9, and #5 was a spare - and whata know.. our hour was up! I soo was going to win, but time was up. Oh well, guess I need to go back!

Patience is Key.

this post is for Thursday, February 24.

Some things just really, really excite me - and let me tell you, this excites me. Before I registered for my wedding, I saw these dish sets at Macy's. I wanted a complete set in the worst way, but 40.00 a set (remember a set is 1 plate, 1 bowl, 1 salad plate, 1 mug) and wanting 12.. was going to be out of my budget. Over the years, I had managed to collect 5 sets. When I went to open a set, it was chipped. My husband took it back, to find out they were discontinued!
Now not is all lost - I wasn't overly happy when he called me to tell me this while he was standing at the counter trying to figure out what to do. Long story short, I now have 11 sets in total and didn't pay 40.00 a set! Now.. to find that 1 last set..

She was a Beauty.

this post is for Wednesday, February 23.

Because it is Wednesday and there is nothing exciting going on that is newsworthy, I thought I would remember a very awesome pet. Rosie was our families golden for many many years. I want to think 13, but could have been 14. She passed in 2006. I am a huge animal lover, so you show me a big fluffy dog and my heart melts.

It's Loud.

You know you use your credit card too much when this is what gets sent to you as a reward. Now, I must admit I have had the same credit card for 8 years now.. I am very excited for my bluray player and sound system!
