I'm back for my weekly happiness list.
I have lots to be happy about. But, here are just a few highlights:
Pioneer Woman's new cookbook came out on the 13th. Have you seen it? It's just beautiful! I have a girl crush on her.
Our 2 ferals {Brandy & Nala} went in for checkups. Ever tried taking a feral cat to the vet? Gah. Plus, when I do, I usually take both of them at the same time to get it over with in one trip. Besides needing to lose a little weight {who doesn't??}, they passed with flying colors. Thank God. We have quite enough sick kitties in our house, thank you very much!! I think Brandy {pictured} has forgiven us.
My new Nutmeg Place sign. I love it. And working with one of my favorite bloggers on this project was awesome. Let's do this again Anne! I {heart} you big time!
Growing some Easter grass in some cute chalkboard painted pots for the kids. I'm going to write thier names on them. How spoiled are they?? Pretty spoiled to be sure.
My {little} Spring mantle. I don't usually decorate the mantle other than for Christmas. But, this year I was inspired to decorate it for Spring/Easter. I'm so glad I did. It's so cheerful and happy.
My new pink laptop came today. {Squee!!} I'm blogging this post on it. Does my blog look prettier now?? haha. It came with Photoshop, so hopefully I can learn how to use that before Picnik is all gone in a few weeks.
But most of all, you make me happy!! I was very touched to see so many sweet comments regarding my rant yesterday. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one feeling the pressure to constantly have clever, witty, pretty posts. I love you all. You are my soul sisters. You make me smile and laugh. You inspire me to be creative. You rock... hard.
I hope you are enjoying the gorgeous weather most of the country is having. We had snow yesterday, but I hear by the weekend we should be wearing shorts and bbq'ing!! Have a GREAT rest of your week. See ya in a couple days for Show Off Saturday!!
XOXO
Your sign turned out so great!! It looks perfect in that spot, too!
ReplyDeleteOh...and good luck with Photoshop! But if for some reason that doesn't work out so well, check out Picmonkey - it's just like Picnik :-)
Glad the kitties are doing well. Love that sign, it looks great and so does your mantle. I usually don't do seasonal decorating besides Christmas but sometimes I get inspired and do something else. Enjoy your new laptop, how fun!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know Pioneer Woman's new cookbook was out! I love the pots painted with chalk paint. So cute!
ReplyDeleteA pink laptop, wow! Looks good! And about Photoshop: there are sooooooooo many tutorials; I'm sure you'll learn it fast. It's software with (almost) endless possibilities.
ReplyDeleteOMG, snow? That's great in the winter but now, in spring, we all need sunshine and a little bit of warmth again. This afternoon, we'll go (with pre-school) to the local children's farm with all the kids. Soon there will be the first little baby aimals again: now that's what I call Spring :)
Your mantel looks adorable. Guess what: I haven't any Easter decoration yet, I'm too busy with other things and don't know where to start.
I heart you back Meg!! Loved working with you, it was a blast & we definitely have to do it again and again :)
ReplyDeleteLove your list and that laptop and those pots! Hmmm need to do pots like that, too... :)

ReplyDeleteI just love your happiness lists... and your new puter is pretty awesome, too!
