WORN out WEDNESDAY!

Generally i plan out my blog weeks ahead of time, as did i this week. I was so excited about this weeks WEALTHY WEDNESDAY, but after certain circumstances last night and today. What your getting is well a different version. 


Last night i arrived home around 9 pm with lots of little Susie homemaker duties on the agenda...
  • Laundry
  • Tanning
  • Cleaning Carpets
  • sweeping 
  • mopping floors 
ooooh & making my Sticky buns from yesterday's blog

But that definitely didn't happen. 

I started my oven & black smoke immediately filled my house. I automatically called Casey (in tears) and he headed home. I was pretty scared but the moment he yelled from the kitchen where our stove was on fire, to "Call 911" i panicked and pretty much began to hyperventilate. Steve and Casey were able to get the fire somewhat out pretty quickly. In 8 minutes from the time that i called 911 the fire trucks were here and in full force trying to figure out what had happened. Two hours later  we were in the house cleaning up the mess left behind. We moved the stove out last night and i tried to sleep. Awaking this morning to talk to my boss about what had happened and getting the insurance company on the phone. LONG day of cleaning and still kinda being in shock i managed to mow the yard and thank the lord that it wasnt as bad as it could have been.My family and friends and my babe there no matter what. Last night was terrible but could have been ten times worse. Thanking the LORD. 

Goodnight all.

Sticky Buns?

Sticky Bun Breakfast Ring

2 small tubes refrigerator buttermilk biscuits OR 1 tube Pillsbury Grands buttermilk biscuits
3 Tbsp. butter, melted
1/2 C. pancake syrup (any brand you like, I used Mrs. Buttersworth)
1/3 C. packed light brown sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 C. chopped pecans, optional
1/4 C. chopped almonds, optional


Instructions:
Spray a fluted pan with non-stick spray. Combine the melted butter and syrup in a small bowl and set aside. In another bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nuts (if desired). Place about half of the syrup mixture in the bottom of the pan. Then sprinkle half of the brown sugar mixture on top. Lay the biscuits on the bottom of the pan, overlapping edges (closely together) to form a ring. Top with remaining syrup and sugar mixtures. Bake at 375 degrees for approximately 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 1 minute in the pan, then invert onto a serving platter and enjoy!

Yes, you may call me the sappy type

Normally this post would be SUNDAY FUNDAy...but today is a little different.

Why? You ask!
Well it's Easter-a day no one should take for granted because if it weren't for our lord & savior we wouldn't be here! Jesus made the biggest sacrifice of all.
we spent our day with both families for lunch at Perinis & then for napping and the masters at my grandparents house! Hope everyone had a blessed day!

Now on to the rest of my post.

Casey will probably make fun of this pretty quick but oh we'll I'm sometimes a hopeless romantic! (majority, let's get real!) We have traveled back n forth to Abilene several times and seen families or couples out taking pictures In the bluebonnets! I have enjoyed watching and seeing all these beautiful pictures of everyone on Easter Sunday and especially in the bluebonnets! (so there you know my secret) I'm in love with photographs! They truly show the happiness on people's faces and in their heart. If I had the talent I would give anything to be a photographer! It's always been a huge dream of mine...(dream on right!) Also today I am thankful for the fact that so many of my beautiful friends are expecting children of their own & I can be apart of if all! As many of you know my love for children grows by the day!(once again. Yes I know. I'm getting soft.)

So since there are no bluebonnet pictures here a gorgeous one I happened upon! Happy Sunday all!

This Thoughtful thursday

Thoughtful Thursday

My thoughts for this Thursday should probably be kept to myself… but on another note.

How well do you really know me?
Let me ask you? On a scale from ONE to TEN : Where do you think you land?

(Lately I have really been looking into and studying myself at a deeper level than is really comfortable. But in order to become the person I long to be: It’s a must.)
SOOOOOOOOO
(I bet I can answer the question in only a matter of a few seconds)


Most of you know me about a five because I never open up enough to let you really get in my head.

Some of you know me at a deeper level of more like a seven and truthfully that’s about as close as ill get you get.

I can probably say that no one knows me to a ten, because this is where my problem lies. I will not let anyone break down that barrier totally because it leaves me open and vulnerable.

I am working very hard for some special individuals to be able to know me at a deeper level and it will really be a stretch and out of my comfort zone. (But the relationships do serve a greater purpose in my life, so I do believe the stretch and discomfort will be rewarding and worth it at some point.)


If your close and want to know me to a deeper level I need your help and we can achieve this. BUT I will need your help too: to know that the risk of me letting the layers be peeled back and for me to be completely open and vulnerable that you’re willing to understand me and my effort.  



Another thought for the day: someone said this very well “We should tend to our own rat killing”

So today: “ill be tending to my own rat killing.”

Wealthy Wednesday

I am all about finding ideas that don’t BREAK THE BANK.
Don’t get me wrong I normally want the best of the best, because I believe I work hard enough to provide myself with it.
But lets face it. A lot of times we can do it cheaper and make it ten times more personable.
So here is going to be my project. But it will def be something in the making.
I will be taking a long coat closet in the living room of my house and making it into a small office. Never thought of that did you??
Neither did I until this weekend when I took the doors off so that we could prepare to knock out a wall and tile the living room floor.
It may be awhile before I have a finished picture of my new office because it must be perfect.
The things I will be on the look out for:
·         The perfect white paint
·         A beautiful vintage border
·         A small desk with drawers
·         Some shelving
·         Maybe even some wall décor
·         And a beautiful vintage chair
Besides the paint and maybe photos I want everything else to be from a thrift type store. To make the complete theme…just perfect.

These several images come from www.pinterest.com 
Just getting some ideas!





I love each of these styles and depending on the color's i choose it will be variations or i might even use a cute decoupage idea. OHHH but guess what i can do anything i need to! 
But remember thrifting ONLY from me this time! 
Project in Progress!
