Weekend Wrap Up

 It was wonderful having a three day weekend, but it went by too fast. My last day at work last week was spent moving our office. I was so tired from all the packing that I was having a hard time unpacking in an orderly fashion. As you can tell, I was just unwrapping things willy nilly; not sure what I should focus on.  

But I did manage to find the Junior Mints. 

Friday I cleaned house and worked on a few projects around the house. I did run out to the store since we decided on French toast with bacon for supper. 

Saturday, I went with my daughter to Morristown to the Mall. While we were there, I wanted to check out Claire's to see if I could find a necklace.When I walked in the girl told me all the jewelry in the store was on sale for $5.00 or less. I found one I loved. It was $10.99 but I got it for $5 bucks.

Then I stopped in Books-a-Million to look at bibles. While I was there, I needed a new bookmark and I fount this one. I love it. 

I did find a bible I think is the one I will end up getting. I love the commentary in it.

I picked up some new pink polish to try another manicure I saw on line. I kind of like it, but the creams are really hard to do. I think I will stick with frosted polishes.

I had ordered a new clutch style bag for the awards night at National Conference. It came in this week end. I love it. 

Sunday was church and then I ran over to a friends house to help her sort her Thirty-One order from a party we did on Facebook. She had an amazing party so it was a challenge to determine who had ordered what. But we got it finished. 

I had ordered the Double Duty Caddy to keep in my car to use when I pick up fast food for lunch or supper and need a drink carrier. This is perfect for that.

Hubby and I had a great supper of fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, and fried corn. Other than that, I just vegged out all day. But today it is back to the "real world". 

Sunday Songs

Happy July 4th

From the lakes of Minnesota

To the hills of Tennessee

Across the plains of Texas

From sea to shining sea

From Detroit 

Down to Houston

And New York 

To L.A.

Where there's pride in every American heart

And it's time we stand and say.....

A day off....

So happy to have a day off today! Here are a few of my fave funnies to tickle your fancy and start your day.

And my favorite....

Moving Day!

If you will recall a year ago this past March, our offices moved to a new building. We have outgrown our current office so we are moving today. Can I just say I hate packing? Fortunately, we just have to pack the small stuff. The movers will be here this morning to dismantle, move and put back together all the desks and various other furniture. It is also a blessing that we are literally moving just across the street. So that is a good thing. Maybe the move won't take to long. We have lots of shade trees around the new office. 

It has beautiful hardwood floors. This is my office. Since it was originally built as a home, I am in what was considered the Master Bedroom.

One of my walls is actually angled into three small walls. Will be interesting to set up the furniture. 

I love the wood window shades. The metal racks will be going back in my closet for storage.

Since it was a master bedroom, I ended up with a private bathroom in my office. 

It is a two story and sets up on a hill but down below is a creek that is getting a little high with all the rains we have had. 

But it would have to come an awful big flood for it to get in the house. But I do love having water running behind us.

Well, I am off to start loading the small stuff from my existing office into my car. So glad we are doing this today and then going right into a three day weekend.

Delectably delicious...

 I have always loved Milky Ways. Other candy bars come and go as some of my favorites, but Milky Way is always my #1 pick on a go-to-snack. 

When they came out with the Midnight one, it reminded me of the old Forever Yours bars which I loved so I also love the Midnight Milky Way. 

And since my first piece of candy out of a box of chocolates is the chocolate covered caramel, I was ecstatic when Milky Way introduced the Milky Way Simply Caramel bar. 

Well yesterday I stopped to get gas and new Milky Way wrapper caught my eye...Milky Way Marshmallow. You know I had to try it. Suffice it to say Oh. My. Gosh. Milky Way has done it again. Proving to meet they are the #1 Candy Bar of all time. 

The only problem with the new Marshmallow version is that I wanted to run out and melt it on some graham crackers. 

I ran errands at lunch and stopped at Courthouse Donuts. After I got home, I decided that next time I go there, I need to ask them to come up with a Milky Way topped donut.

What is YOUR favorite candy bar?

Some beautiful flag pics

There is nothing prettier than our flag flying against a blue, clear sky. 

My daughter took this one last night at our local grocery store. The sky was so unique. Instead of the sun's rays beaming down through the clouds, they looked like they were coming from the ground up. It was really cool. 

As we approach the 4th of July, we will see more and more flags displayed. One of my favorite sites is a flag displayed on a front porch.

I love the painted wooden flags I see on Pinterest. People are so creative.

And how cute is this crochet afghan in a flag pattern?

I love when I find crafts that are as simple as this. I may have to make this before next year. I really like it. 

My current favorite "flag" decor are my fabric flowers I bought at Walmart for just a couple of bucks. Loving them!

We have had some of the worst storms throughout the night. Normally I don't hear the rain because I sleep with a fan on. But last night I couldn't hear the fan because of the rain, wind, and thunder. I am heading to work on about 3 hours of sleep. One thing to be thankful for.....All the umbrellas are in the house and not in the car! Not that an umbrella will have much hope of keeping me dry in these torrential downpours. 

Hope everyone has a happy Tuesday.
