It's just another Manic Monday, Woo Hoo, I wish it was Sunday, Woo Hoo, That's my fun day, Woo Hoo... For all of you who grew up as a teenager in the 80's like I did that song will surely bring back some memories! I love me some Bangles! A Monday doesn't go by that I don't sing that song at least once! This is Lulu by the way. I am the older sister that Joy alluded to the other day. Truly I am the procrastinator of the bunch. I love to make things, anything actually, and I have more time on my hands since I am at a Stay at Home Wife/Mom. I say that in that manner because my children are in college and don't require a lot of my time so my husband is my main focus at this time in my life. Today I am posting not about the crafts we make but about my day. I love Sandra over at
Diary of a Stay at Home Mom. She has awesome Portuguese recipes, wonderful pictures, and great stories of her life as a Mom and wife of a military man. You all should go check her out. Every Monday she hosts Happy Homemaker Monday. I've followed her for a long time but today is my first time linking as Lulu! I hope to have a few of my handcrafted items and some of the fabric I am currently working with to show you all tomorrow.
The Weather
The day started out with bad storms. I was expecting a lazy pajama day but then the clouds rolled away and out popped the sun! Now it's 62 degrees outside. It turned out to be a perfect day!
On My Reading Pile
oohhh I love to read. I received a Kindle for Christmas from my son, and I have about 6 books waiting on me. Next though I hope to start the Mark of the Lion series that I received from my sister-in-law for Christmas.
On My TV
Grey's Anatomy from last week awaits me on the DVR, and my daughter has me watching Glee on netflix. I've moved from Season 1 to Season 2 this week.

On My To-Do List
Getting ready to put supper on then before the day is over I need to fold a load of laundry I washed this morning.
What I am sewing, crafting, crocheting, knitting, or creating
I am several different pacifier clips that I have to finish or Joy is going to kill me! I am also working on the cutest baby gift set for that new Valentine's baby. It will include a bib and custom burp cloth. Come back by tomorrow and you should see the finished product!
Looking around the house
The sun is already starting to set and it's getting dark. No one has made it home yet from their days at work/school so I am sitting in a quiet house. All I can hear is the clicking of the keyboard as I type and the cars going by on the road outside.
From the Camera
Now this picture isn't actually from my camera but my daughter Izzy B. She is a Fine Arts Student at Maryville College. I think she has awesome potential, don't you?
Something Fun to Share
I love Pinterest! I am completely addicted and I think I need to join Pinterest Anonymous.
On my Prayer List
An elderly gentleman that we go to church with. He wasn't at church this weekend and I missed him. I know he is getting older and can't always come to church but his empty seat saddened me.
Bible Verse; Devotional
Isaiah 41:10 "Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness."
