Think Happy Thoughts and Tart and Tangy Book marks

Hello-  Today sure was a scorcher!  Lady Di and I took Bernie up to the Rapids for his haircut.  I went to Good Will while Di grocery shopped and I found some good treasures.  We made a quick trip to Light House Books, picked up Bernie, and went through Culver's drive thru for ice cream.  After we unloaded the car, I went in to see all the treasures Di bought on her trip.  She really got some nice things and I especially liked the wildlife/Yellowstone scrap book papers she bought for scrap booking her trip.  She really got some beautiful papers.  She surprised me and brought me back a really cool picture frame that is shaped like a sewing machine.  I have never seen anything like it.  It is AWESOME!  It will look so cool in my sewing room.  After I left Di's, I stopped over to my mom and dad's to take my dad his Father's Day present and to visit.  I finally got home around 6, did a few things on the computer, and then made a quick trip to the library as I had a few things that had come in.  This evening was phone calls, and I finished 7 sympathy cards.  I sure am pooped now.  Probably won't get anything done tomorrow!  LOL   Oh....I talked to Brooke tonight and she is sewing up a storm.  She said she had made blankets for all of her Webkinz.  I said to you have any squares left?  She said, oh yeah...LOTS!  But she had run out of thread and fortunately her mother had a spool of green.  So they are going to need to go thread shopping.  And, she told me that she was using her scissors as a seam ripper and that it was working pretty good!

Think Happy Thoughts

It was another busy day in Mayberry yesterday. I spent most of the morning on the computer catching up on email and learning how to do some new things on here. I really love learning how to do more on the computer. I made 6 "old ladies" cards yesterday that turned out real cute and you will get to see them in the future. I usually wait and photograph a whole bunch of things at one time and I keep a file on the computer all ready for using on my posts. I ran some errands in town and then it was off to Lady Di's so I could help fill her "Chicken" craving. She sure does like her chicken and I think one of these day's she is going to be sprouting wings! We headed up to Cat's Down the Road which has great baked and fried chicken on Monday nights. If you haven't been there....it is definitely worth trying. You will love it! I just had to stop typing for a minute as one of my "children" was up to no good. I heard Taffy bring something out from under the couch and she was tossing it so I had to go look to see what she had and she had one of my rubber stamps! So I scarfed that up from her and will have to get that put back in the right set. I suppose she scarfed it, and hid it while I had that stamp set out on my desk. Such a little dickens! Any whoo.....we ran into Melissa, AJ, and Isabelle before we left Cats and then we headed to the Rapids to Walmart. I did my grocery shopping for the month (or two). Running to the store for a couple of things is not my idea of fun so I usually do it all at once and when I finally run out of a lot of stuff and I get sick of trying to come up with something to eat...then I finally go....tee hee!
