why, hello there

why hello there, blends!

i am so happy today is friday.

i don't like wishing my life away, but i truly love my weekends.

i guess everyone does, right?!?

yesterday a friend at work gave me this to look at:

have you ever read?!?

it actually had some really cool things to check out.

i belong to

maghound

which is a magazine subscription service that 'manages' your monthly mags.

i am addicted to magazines. i am like a magazine hoarder.

i ALWAYS, and i reiterate, ALWAYS,

get suckered into buying yet another magazine at the checkout line.

SUCKER.

but, i find that a lot of times, i don't have time to get into a full blown book,  but a magazine

will allow me to

'surf' along at my own pace.

the cool thing about maghound is that you can switch it up.

just say you ordered a mag you didn't like....

well, next month you can get something TOTALLY different. way cool, huh?

anyway, through my friend's magazine, i found this cool website

and i started dreaming about summer.

mydeco.com

ahhhh....only about a month longer of rain and cold and

"hopefully" we will be on our way

to 90' scorching HOTTTTT sunshiney days!

but lookie at all this fun stuff......

p.s. linkin up with

for what i'm lovin!

they're blooming!!!

hipppp hipppp hoooray!

lets all say, "t~you're a dork!"....yes, i think we have all already agreed on this general concensus (did i spell that right?)....or is it consensus?

sooooo not last year but the year before......the hubs decided he would trim the hydrangeas....let's say major hair cut for them....like trim them down to their bare A****. ouch. poor little pink hydrangeas.....yes, he cut them down, (in his defense, it was the end of the blooming season and he 'thought'....they should be hacked, errr trimmed down)....but apparently, he trimmed them so low that they never bloomed last season. yep. not one stinkin flower.....talk about major disappointment. i thought he has scarred them for life. i thought we would never see another bloom again.....until......today!

yes, i am excited. hydrangeas are my second fav flower. gerbera daisies being FIRST....

sorry the pic is a little blurry......but you get the idea! especially PINK gerbera daisies! they always make me smile! so fun and girly!

but look what also is blooming in my flower garden.......

my lavender!!! whooop! whooop! yes, and it smells so super duper amazing....remember my post about loving the smell of fresh laundry...esp. lavender vanilla fabric softener....delightful!

i also whipped up a sweet little summertime wreath for the front door~i try to make a new one for every season and holiday......(they are super easy with the help of a little ribbon and this little amazing thing called a glue gun.....

sorry the camera i was using was my phone and the lighting is not sooooo good! but again, you get the drift....just simple. thats how i have been living life these days. rolling with the punches, enjoying the summer dog days of summer (and yes, mother nature, any time you would like to give us some sunshine, and hot sticky weather, i am A-OK with it.)......

what have y'all been doing to enjoy your summer??? 

happy thursday! i am sad, our vacation is quickly coming to an end....boo. we do have some fun stuff planned for the remaining few days...will keep ya posted with pics very soon! xoxo
