Happy Mother's Day

So how was your Mother's Day?

I was taken to lunch at one of my favorite restaurants and visited by my daughter and son and g-kids...:)

I got flowers and lots of love!!!!

I remember spending time wiht my mom and now that she is no longer with us there is a void and part of me is sad that I cannot spend the day with her...but I still wished her Happy Mother's Day and have given her some time while remembering some of our fun times together.

One year we had a big picnic at the local park, I made potato salad and we made hot dags, the winde blew some of the hot dogs off the grill and we had to eat only potato salad...we laughed and mom told me she didn't feel like hot dogs anyways...she made me feel better and I loved her more for that....

Another Mom's Day she came over and we all went down to the Queen Mary and had lunch there. She was so excited because it was her special day and we were all together....I remember that they had a huge brunch and I felt sick afterwards because I ate so much....mom laughed a lot and we told some stories about past fun events. My kids were all ears to learn more about their "mom's" past....then we went back home and mom played cards with the kids and I got to rest up and watch a little TV...it was a perfect Mom's Day!!!

I think it's our memories that make it so special of just being a family together.... :)

Hope you made some memories today!!!  :)

Oh Ouch!!! Why???? And Spagetti Monster Fun!! and My Favorite Dance Scenes!!!

A publicity stunt celebrating the upcoming Olympic games in Beijing leaves 2008 needles in Dr. Wei Sheng’s head as well as a few hundred in his shoulder (just for kicks). When you’re already in the Guinness Book of World Records for sticking needles into your head, there is little you can do besides stick more needles in your head to attempt to break your own record. Dr. Wei Sheng!! Ouch I don't like needles and this would really bother me!!!

I love this "Flying Spagetti Monster" gift! What a great idea that Katherinas  had. Wouldn't a child just adore this? Here is the pattern to this cool and wacky gift!!! 



And wow it sure looks like this scupture that is in San Francisco Legion of Honor. 
The artist is Chihuly.
 

I also had to share a non crafty item, that is some of my favorite dance scenes....I love the music and the feelings the scene give you!! Makes you want to take up dance lessons... :)

Things I have Done to "Rescue" my $$$

With the shortening of hours, and the economy the way it is we have had to cut back on expenses, so I was visiting an online friend over at "Confessions of a Former Bookworm" and saw that she had posted her list...so here is mine...

1. We have ran an ad to rent out a bedroom to a college student.
2. Reduced the number of times we eat out each week to 2.
3. Changed our 2 landline phones to 1 and got "Magic Jack" for the 2nd one.
4. Changed our grocry shopping to necessaries only and no extravagant "name brand" buys.
5. Limited our yearly flying vacations to 1 and take more RV trips.
6. Empitied the jacuzzi for the winter months.
6. Turned the dishwasher to "air dry" and only wash before 9am or after 4pm hours.
7. Use coupons for restaurants and grocery stores to save on our purchases.
8. Eat at home before I got to my LYG meeting instead of eating there.
9. Started washing my own car every other week instead of running it through the car wash
10. Cancelled my netflex, and my yarn kit of the month club.
11. Started to make gifts for next Christmas instead of planning on buying them all. :)

So what changes have you made to make your life a little less stressful $$$ wise??? Let me know by leaving my a post so I can come and visit you...Thanks for reading mine... :)

My Yard Flowers and A Wild Tomato Plant

These little "chocolate" brown finches left for awhile because the back of the Oleader bush was cut, but they have returned and they are so cute. :) Yesterday we had two bright yellow finches come and take a bath in the falls in our pond, they were so quick that I wasn't able to capture them in a photo but I did some other visitors... :)

The little doves were running all over the yard and then I almost cut down this big bush.....

But when I looked closer I realized that it was a wild tomatoe bush, and little tomatoes are already forming...

Wow I will have some fresh home grown tomatoes this year!!! :)

This little orange one in the middle has really grown...he was just an inch long last spring...now look at him he is a good 5" now.....wow...

Working on Our Sidewalks and Reading

This week it has been a mess on our street. They are not only working on the water pipes in the middle of the street they are also redoing the sidewalks where the tree roots have damaged them. It is great to see our city workers at work, but at 7am with huge jackhammers and lots of big trucks all over it gets to be a bit much! Then today they blocked me in and I had to waddle through the muck and water to get out to my car that my hubby parked down the street. sheesh......

I was so pleased to recieve the book "Guest House" by Barbara K. Richardson from her agent. :) I get to read it and critique it on my reading blog, DaBookLady's Reading Life. Be sure and go see....I just got another notice that she is sending me another one called "Whiter Than Snow" by Sandra Dallas, that just went on sale this month. I cannot wait to start that one. I am almost done with "Guest House" and will be putting up my critique by the end of this week on it... 

Flowers and Field Trips....

My good friend brought me over some beautiful roses from her garden and I had to share them with you all...I just love the smell of fresh cut roses...

My LYG went on a field trip to the costa Mesa shops....lots of soft and cuddly yarn and always fun to see the new projects....one of yarns we saw made into a cool scarf was the This sheep was outside one of the shops we stopped at and I couldn't resist sitting on it!!

A lizard bookmark I made....
