Top 10 Tuesday


My top 10 things for this Tuesday are just random items from the past few days. 

1. I did my nails with my new Avon Brushed Metal nail polish in Dusky Copper. I never get a manicure because I have been doing my nails since I was in 8th grade. 


2. I was at the local Family Dollar and this little purse caught my eye. I have been looking for a small purse for those times when I just don't need a big bag. This was just $5.00.


3. I stopped at a Co-Op store the other day to look at plants. They had their baby chicks on sale for $3.00. They were so cute. Don't let the cuteness fool you. I went to rub his little soft head and he pecked my thumb. 


4.  We had a new baby at church Sunday. Don't you just love that new baby smell. He was so cute and cuddly and of course I held him. 


5. I had a few of the grandkids over Sunday and I fixed breakfast for supper. Which surprised me, because I am not the chef in the family. Hubby was at work and I just decided to cook for them myself. 


6. I saw my first little wildflower in the yard yesterday. I guess that means we are almost done with winter. 


7. I came home from work Monday night and decided I wanted potato salad. I don't know where the energy came from to make it. The time change always makes me tired for the first month and yesterday was National Nap Day so I could have dozed a while. But I decided to cook instead.


8. And what is potato salad without baked beans to go with it. So I had to make those as well. This was the first time I used my Pyrex oval baker. The beans turned out great. 


9. Many years ago, I purchased a bankers lamp. I had used it for a long time at one of my former jobs. I left it there when I quit and had forgotten all about it. But due to a series of events, it has found its way back to me. I appreciate the help of the ladies who made sure I got it back. I loved this lamp. We are going to be moving into a new office in a few weeks and I am taking the lamp to my new office. 


10. I also left a bench at my former job. I didn't have anywhere to use it in my house so I left it with someone else. I have always regretted it because I loved that bench. However, when I got my lamp back I also got the bench back. I am beyond thrilled. This is destined for my new office as well. Sorry about the bad picture, but it was in the back of the truck when I took the picture.
