Thank you, thank you, thank you...

for all your kind words and the time you took to leave me a comment the last few days...
been busier than a bed bug at a Best Western...
got to keep the guys moving while I got them here...
for Monday I will be on my own again...
I had a sausage biscuit with a side of gravy to dunk it in...
for those wondering...
and all it did was make me sleepy, so I took a nap...
actually, I had to take 2 today...
I am pupt! ( my mother's way of spelling it)...
we have only cracked open 5 totes...
there are more...
they are not coming out...
we are decked and I won't miss it...
I have enough to decorate many houses...
there is still a huge tree in storage...
I have gotten to a few of your blogs to check you out and I am amazed at all the talent out there and all the ideas!...
I will get to the rest as I find time...
I promise!
Hugs and blessings to you all- Tete


the funk is gone...

clean slate...
ready to go...
slide show time...
I have cookie ornaments that will go on the tray...
for santa...
the reason for the season...
need to find my greenery and stick it around and it will be done..
kitchen tree...
with halloween lights...
they look pink...
add balls and excelsior...
roses...
hang small balls in 3s...
save on hooks and they make a better statement...
Steve called and is on his way home with breakfast from McDonalds...
and lights...
and he found some pink ornaments...
so we are taking a break until he gets home and then they can string the lights on the big tree and we will be doing the living room this afternoon...
hope you are having fun today...

have you ever been in a funk?...

well, shame on me, I sure was...
and my poor bf, Rebecca , had to listen to my poor me junk...
after she had worked all day in retail...
on BLACK FRIDAY!
bad, bad me...
sorry, girl friend...
I so owe you now...
my guys ate supper...
and then parked their keisters in front of the tv...
what?...
if you think I was in the mood to deck something then...
well, let me tell you...
they are so lucky to be this side of Heaven ...
anyway, I blew my top to my bf...
and then I tore apart the mantel...
I just took junk from one spot and put it on the table...
no where to go with it...
too much junque in my house!...
need to empty a Christmas tub to store this stuff in...
but I was cranky and got this sore throat thing happening...
so I took cold meds and went to bed...
so here I am up now in the middle of the night...
I did the puter thing...
so I blog hopped...
that didn't help...
everyone posting all this cool stuff...
great ideas, by the way!...
so I went over and sat down at the table...
ever the mindful blogger, I took the camera...
and I started with these two vases...
in the free cycle stuff...
cost- 0 dollars...
then I moved onto the birdcage I bought from Cheryl's esty shop online...
Zany Mayd on my sidebar...
she's running a sale right now, by the way...
plug, plug...
and I have these little clamp on birds...
so one went in here...
then I moved onto a floral in the urn on the left...
also from Cheryl...
love her to death!...
and then the star my bf found for me rummaging...
ok...
that looked good...
and then there are these new brass candle sticks...
2 of them...
free cycle- 0 dollars...
just put 2 ornaments on them upside down...
done...
the best way to get rid of the funk is to create something out of something you already have...
the best shopping is done at home...
I will post photos of the finished mantel when I get it put together...
Steve has to make a wally world run in the morning for lights for the tree in the living room...
I have decided to put the purple halloween lights that are on the deck on my kitchen tree...
ooh...
awww...
yeah...
later!
