Decorating and Shopping Goodies

I am still getting used to my old shift since I went back to it on Tuesday. It makes for a very long day sitting in a truck for 11 1/2 hours of my 14 hour shift. UGGGHHH.. Then the boss wanted to know why I seemed upset when he saw me. UHHHH HELLOOO you cheated me out of a shift change. He acted is if nothing happened. I just wanted to slap him silly. I worked Tuesday and Wednesday and was off yesterday and today. Yesterday I did a little decorating in the kitchen. YEAH yeah I know I haven't finished the living room yet. I am still riding the fence about what to do over the couch. So anyway, here are few displays so far.








As for the rest of the kitchen I am measuring and thinking. I will need Steve's help for the rest. Today he is off. Yesterday he was off too because he got another kidney stone. He needs to go to the doctor but he has no insurance. With every stone he gets they get bigger and bigger.

I got to thinking I never showed you what I got on my shopping trip with my friends.

I got a yard of this great linen. It was only $4.99. The two edges are already hemmed I just need to hem the short sides and my table runner is done.



Then I found this great fabric. If you click on the picture you can enlarge it to see. It is sampler pattern on it. I think I'm going to try to use it as a pattern and actually stitch a few of them on cloth.



Love this plate. Polka Dots!!! It was 50% off.



Then this little quilt was on sale for $4.00. It'll look great in my dining room.



The next thing I found at Goodwill and forgot to show you. A different game board. A little satin and I will be set.



Then last night while Steve was trying to pass his kidney stone I started another cross stitch I found on line for FREE. I'm not using the color chart they recommend I'm doing my own.



Today we shall see what I get into. LOL. I have an urge to do a make over. Though it might rain today so no painting outside. BUT I have a few projects I could do inside. Until next time.
