Monday Ramblings and a Giveaway

Good morning Monday

you came rather quickly much to my dismay

this week-end flew by

I look back on it and try to piece it all together

by the time Friday night comes

I am toast

Saturday was busy 

as I knew it would be

I attempted to get the upstairs put back together

and I am happy to report that besides some filing

the office is almost livable again

Cooper got a haircut

I really do not like doing this in the colder months

but it is needed

even the groomer said

she has not seen a coat as thick as his.

I got some shopping done

and stopped to pick up some beverages on the way home

and was quite excited to find this ~

I tried it at the wine festival

and fell in love

it is from Germany and it is really good.

Sunday I headed out to run errands 

and go back and get a quilt I had seen on Saturday

I drove through hoards and gobs of traffic

only to find that they were CLOSED on a Sunday

no ~ really??!!

I will not be able to get back out to that area until Thursday night

as they are only open til 6 ~ M-W

and I work until 6

is this some divine intervention

we will see.....

a shop that was open was my favorite cupcake spot

so I bought 6 and as I type this

I have eaten 1 1/2

I think that is good ~ no?

chocolate cupcake with peanut butter frosting =

pure heaven

I did dig out my cards yesterday

and sorted through some things ~ gifts that I have already purchased

this week will be a hunker down and get busy week

I have Friday off ~ my last vacation day of the year

so I will enjoy my 4 day work week.

Now to my giveaway....

a month or so ago

I had a jewelry party

Lia Sophia has some beautiful stuff

and when I placed my order

I found something I thought I would share

I neglected to tell you that she was my cousin

means the world to me.

Good luck on the giveaway and have a fantastic week.
