A lil' of this...lil' of that...

I just signed up for the very first time to win a giveaway on a blog!! It's on Make It And Love It ...and she is giving away a gift certificate for vinyl wall decor found at Wordy Bird. I've never done anything with vinyl...but I don't think it would take me long to love it! I'm keeping my fingers crossed...and you should go ahead and sign up too!

Meanwhile...not much is going on over in my little world. I have gotten a couple of good deals that I need to share because I'm a girl and we like informing people of the good deals we encounter! I have been on the lookout for a desk or table or something to keep in my room to do my crafts on because right now I keep all of my supplies in my closet and it is a PAIN IN MY (huge) BUTT to drag it out every time I want to make something...so I haven't been doing very much lately. So Ashlie is moving the last few things out of her room and she has this ugly (sorry) vanity thing that has a huge mirror and bulletin boards and lights on it...and she was going to throw it all away. So they took it apart yesterday to get it out to the dumpster and when she got down to the last piece, I took one look at it and it was EXACTLY what I had been looking for! It is a high desk with 6 cubbies going down the sides (I preferred it to be high because we only have a high top table with high chairs in my house right now)...Anyway, so I got my desk for free!

And while I was at Target yesterday I was looking for a pair on white shoes to wear at this wedding I am in and I didn't find those but I did find super cute pair of black flats for $3.50. (Me and Stacie went back and forth on who was going to get them, and I ended up with the deal!) I also found a huge bouncy ball that is filled with purple water and glitter....but it was $7.99 (major rip off) so I forced myself not to get it even though I wanted it really really bad.

And in other news my favorite shows are all starting again! Lost started last week...but this week Survivor and The Amazing Race start as well! And then I supplement the rest of my week with the usual Jeopardy, Modern Family and The Office. (Have I mentioned before that everyone should watch Modern Family...)

How exciting about the desk. I've been looking for a desk for my crafting/sewing stuff too, but first I have to find a place in my house for it...

I'm sorry you couldn't afford the purple globe watery thingy :( I'm excited as well for TV to be starting! I'm also excited for the Olympics!!! Victory!

I know that was probably hard for you to not buy the purple thing. I know how much you love purple and sparkles. I to love that TV is starting again, Its a fantastic thing. Congrats on the new shoes! I bet they would go perfect with my new 4 dollar dress!

Wait...did I miss something? Why is Ashlie moving her stuff out of her room? Please tell me that what I am assuming is not true!
