Luxury Accommodations

(I apologize for the poor quality of the photos, but I had to take them from inside the house...)
_______________

Take a look at this picture - notice anything, shall we say, peculiar??


Let me give you a closer look:


So glad to accommodate Mr. Squirrel soaking up the sun! I just happened to look out the back door, and had to grab my camera.

Happy Sunday - go be lazy like this guy!

Inspiration comes in all forms!

Ahem.

Yes, it's me. I'm finally back here on my poor ignored blog. Life has calmed down somewhat, so I'm back to share a few things with you!

I've been making wreaths like crazy, and I thought I'd play a little "inspiration" game with everyone. Ready? Here we go!

Back to Making Treasuries!!

OK, I've been a little lax in making treasuries....so I've given myself a kick-start by joining a terrific treasury team, Click & Comment. Here's my first treasury I posted over there!

Finding Balance

So I've come to a couple realizations in the past couple weeks....

1. I'm not Superwoman.

2. (Was there even a Superwoman in those comics?)

3. I'm not going to obsess over missing a day in my "Daily Treasury Challenge" to myself.

4. (Whose bright idea was it anyway, to force myself to make a treasury everyday?? Was it you???? How 'bout you?? Come on, 'fess up!!!)

5. There aren't enough hours in the day for me to devote to my 9-5 job, my handmade stores on Etsy and Artfire, and my vintage store on Etsy. Soooooo.......

6. As items expire in my Etsy vintage store, I won't be renewing them, and I won't be adding any new items. I plan to keep a SMALL vintage section in my handmade shop on Etsy, but not much. Soooooo......

7. Here is a coupon code for 25% off any merchandise in my Etsy VINTAGE store only!!! If you've had your eye on something, now's the time to grab it before it expires! Just type coupon code BDCLOSESALE in the coupon code box during checkout. Easy peasy!

8. I'm much happier since I decided I'm not Superwoman.

9. (Did anyone find out yet if there ever was a Superwoman?? Anyone??? Bueller????)

Have a great day, everyone!!

Taking a Break!

Well, the streak is broken :(

I'm taking a treasury break until April 1. I hope everyone is enjoying warmer weather and getting a taste of Spring!
