Show and Tell Friday!


Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!  I have nothing new to share this week because once again I ran out of time! I feel like I have less time now that I'm not working than I did when I was working 40 hours a week! I don't know how that could be! 

I have been out enjoying this beautiful weather we have been having. I think it was 70 degrees today! I've been going for daily hikes and enjoying going out to lunch with my daughter.  I'm finally getting use to not working...it took about a month to get in the groove of it!  

I'm still looking for a job and luckily I've been getting some interviews! I'm just going to continue to enjoy this little "vacation" that I have for now and hopefully the right job will come along soon!  I'm afraid if I stress out too much I'll look back at this time I have off and wish I would have enjoyed it more!  The worrying will not do any good and I'm doing everything I can to find a job and I have to just stay positive about it! Luckily there are a lot of job openings that I apply for each day! I've applied to over 100 positions! I actually keep a spreadsheet of all the jobs I've applied for! 

This week I'm sharing a mosaic I did awhile ago. Things are starting to bloom around here a little early because the weather has been so warm.  I have a daffodil in my backyard that is about to bloom and I can see buds on my lilac bush! Spring is just around the corner!  I can hardly wait to have my roses blooming again but until then I can look at my old photos, like the one above!  

I also want to take this time to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to boyfriend Dan! Sunday is his birthday!  Happy Birthday Babe! The last 9 months since I've met you have been so wonderful!  You light up my life!

Show and Tell Friday


Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!  My daughter Lauren and I spent the day together today...Shopping!  We went to get her some new jeans, which we never found but I did get a great deal so I just had to share! 


 We went to Marshalls and I found this pair of "Guess" shoes and you aren't going to believe how much they were.....


I'm trying so hard not to spend money since I'm unemployed but I couldn't pass these up!  $10!  They are cuter in person than in these photos and even much cuter on, but my feet are not very photogenic! lol

and...

My daughter bought this iphone case on Amazon the other day and gave it to me...


Hot Pink!!!  I can't believe how much cheaper it is to buy iPhone cases on Amazon. I think this was just a couple dollars!  I love it!!! It looks like I have a hot pink iPhone (which they don't make but I think they should) because the case has the same print on it that the iPhone does.

Show and Tell Friday


Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!  I was super rushed today so I had to pull an old photo off of my computer to share.  It was quite a day...my iphone died and I wasn't eligible for an upgrade until next month!  I panicked a bit because I had a voicemail about an interview and I only got part of the message and I couldn't even call her back on my phone. I don't have a home phone anymore so I'm very dependent on my iphone!  Luckily AT&T let me upgrade a month early so I now have a working phone. I was able to listen to the full voicemail message and I have an interview on Feb 5th! Fingers crossed that I get this one!

Show and Tell Friday!


Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!  It's lemon time here in California! I see lemons in almost every yard right now...except mine. For some reason, my lemon bush doesn't have any yet but there are buds on there! 


My son gave me a bag full of lemons from his girlfriend's house. Her tree was loaded with them!  I used those for my centerpiece.


When my mom bought this tiered dish back in the 60s it had ceramic lemons in it and I remembered it looked so pretty so I recreate that look every once in awhile. This time I added some moss and a few limes to it as well. 


I also want to share what my daughter Lauren did to her house key. She saw this idea on Pinterest!  She's just as addicted to that website as I am!


The directions said to brush on white glue and then glitter but she used clear nail polish, then glittered it and then she will add clear nail polish to the top of it to protect it.  I want to do my house key with white glitter but I'll wait and see how hers holds up first. I don't want a purse full of glitter!
