Errands, Buys and crafting

On Thursday I headed in to Dickson, Rand time.
I dropped off all the 2.5x3.5 cards for the vending machine. Had a muffin and hot tea.
Blueberry cream cheese muffin that was YUM and some ginger turmeric tea.
 
Just before leaving I put my 75 cents in the vintage vending machine for my first card. 

One of my errands included a stop at, in Felicity’s words, Hobby Hobby! I needed craft paint and Walmart does not carry what the Hobby does, then again, the Hobby don’t carry what the Hobby did where I used to live. Still adjusting to the lack of convenience. But with that said, I found clearing things!
I saw this and felt it would be adorable on the shelves I have cut out and need to sand before putting up. Issue there is while doing errands, I failed to pick up sandpaper!


Original price, 6.99.

Price I got it for was 3.49.

Also got this adorable set of two dish towels and a dishrag. 
Original cost was 5.99 and I got for 

2.99.

Those are what I call my happy buys.

I really, really need to maybe consider staying off fb reels. Cause when I went out to cut my shelves I cut some small pieces of wood cause thanks to reels I decided to make a Christmas village!
My first house.
The church was constructed however is under way in the painting and design stage. More on that later. 

In a fb group, Southern Divas, they do these little contest for each holiday. On Thursdays contest they wanted you to draw a rainbow. I went right in and painted up this. 

Couple nights before I painted this door hanger. 


Today, I need to get up and do something in this house.
Later gators!

I suppose you should do more online shopping. Sorry it's harder to go out and get what you want. I like the convenience of them just bringing me what I want rather than having to hunt for it.

‎ I had severe symptoms of ALS from shortness of breath, balance problems, couldn't walk without a walker or a power chair, i had difficulty swallowing and fatigue. I was given medications which helped but only for a short burst of time, so I decided to try alternative measures and began on ALS herbal treatment from a herbal centre, It has made a tremendous difference for me. I have improved walking balance, increased appetite, and muscle strength, i feel brand-new now and healthy. Contact him for your problematic health conditions. Email: drdisuherbalcure@gmail.com

The Rest of Today

Image
After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after h...

Coffee Table Redo

Image
Morning all. Couple weeks ago I found this at a neighbors home put out on the side of the  road. Loaded it up in my Prius. It was heavy and LONG.  Standing it up next to me it comes to my shoulders and I am 5'2. My daughter Amber had told me just that week that she needed a coffee table. I think it was meant to be! Basic maple with a traditional  look and a formica top. that you can't do much with. So after checking with my daughter to be sure size would not be a problem I got to work. I built a frame. My thoughts were that if I made a frame and attached wood to that I could slip it right over the top of the existing table top.  Oops....forgot a step... before making the frame I spray painted the base in an ivory color.  Now with that step added in I  move on to what it looks like with the wood attached  to my frame. It slipped right over the top ...

Another Chilling Day - Brothers HOuse

House/dog/bird sitting at my brothers house.  Of course this was Lily's first trip there. Dakota  has house sat with me many times.  Lily was not too sure what to think about Ms. Lola. She loves the ledge at the large windows! My brother has some really pretty sunflowers.....all about to give it up for the summer. Wasp drinking from the hummingbird feeder. Just wondering if these are hot... haha...I will pass on trying them  out though. Bell pepper hiding from  view. Check out the spider web. Loving this shot with the barn in the  background.  This is a form of a bush called Datura stramonium ,  known by the  English names   jimsonweed  or  Devil's snare , the seed pod.  Lily pads. Another bell pepper. Hovering over the pond. My sis in law has been canning.  Messi...
