In Waiting... Treasury

Every once and a while (ok, so quite frequently) I find myself just perusing Etsy.  One of my favorite ways to do this, especially when I'm not looking for anything in particular, is to use the Pounce feature.  All of the shops that I chose for this treasury were found using the "undiscovered" side of pounce.  It took me a while to find all of these great items, but I love how the treasury turned out.  It expires tonight so take a second to check out these great items.

Buck It Up Note Card by BirdcageCards

The Buck it Up Note Card by BirdcageCards absolutely warms my heart!  I just smile thinking about it!  Now I have to tell you, my house is in the middle of a corn field.  People hunt pretty close to year round.  Coming across this card just reminded me that deer season is approaching here in Michigan.  Well, gun season that is.  So wish someone good luck with this card!  Or use it just because you love animals.

I made it!

Hello everyone! I have finally made it back home. Instead of getting home Tuesday night I made it in Wednesday morning thanks to a horrible storm in California. (Seriously, it just HAD to rain while I was there.) Despite the ordeal of getting home, I had an amazing time this past week.

The trip started with a couple days in San Francisco before heading to Fresno for a wedding.  The first night we just went out and walked to dinner.  The next day we made our way up just about every hill in the city.   A couple miles looks easy on a flat piece of paper.

We eventually got out to Pier 39 where I was absolutely giddy about the sea lions!  Seals were my favorite animal when I was little and this was close enough for me.

Probably my favorite of the week was our day trip to Yosemite National Park.  Ah-maze-ing!  I have a thing for nature.  We did quite a few miles of trails.  So exhausting, but worth it.

All in all a great time!  Glad to be back home despite the fact that it was 40 degrees warmer in California.  Ah, Michigan.

Down and Out

This week I have had this nasty, dreadful cold.  My nose hurts, my throat hurts, my eyes hurt, my body hurts.  As if the timing wasn't perfect enough (insert sarcasm here) I am leaving for California on Tuesday.  If I am sick for this trip I will be absolutely pissed!  My family apparently can't keep their germs to themselves, lol.  So the point is, I will be on hiatus for a while.  I may be able to get another post in before leaving, otherwise see you Oct. 14th.
