Imagine the Impossibilities Challenge & a Valentine

Good Morning, I am working diligently on completing my "impossible"
challenge so that I can show off by Tuesday that I actually did it.  That
means the rest of my day today will be spent making a slipcover for one
of my wing chairs.  I will post photos later today or tomorrow on the
steps and the progress.
 
 
In the meantime - here's a little Valentine graphic made from pieces
from both The Graphics Fairy and Vintage Feed Sacks and my sheet
music.  I left a little banner for you to personalize it.

This is Mr. Biff's and my favourite song!

Thank you to both of these generous bloggers for sharing their lovely
graphics - so much fun to play with.
 
 
Again, feel free to use this but if you do - be sure to give a shout out
to Karen at the Graphics Fairy and Vintage Feedsacks and please send
me a link to see what you've done with it!

Nuts! I might be losing it!

That's right - I have, at least temporarily lost a bag of nuts
and bolts that are to have held together my new futon.  Have
you ever had that happen - you put them somewhere where
you won't forget them and presto-nutso - they are GONE!


Argghhhhh.....Mr. Biff is telling me to retrace my steps,
think about the evening I brought them home, etc., etc. and
they are not where I think I would logically put them (which
would have been with the futon no?)

Ever had that happen?  Any tricks to jog your memory?
*sigh* sitting on the floor in my family room is NOT
what I had in mind!

This is what it will look like - it's a beaut!  It will go in Mr. Biff's
office eventually for extra guest sleeping space  - that is
when we get a new sofa for the family room -
in the meantime......

To Ann @ Stylish Once Again

This post is dedicated to Ann @ Stylish Once Again
for featuring me from her linky party 2 Sunday's in a row!  For some
reason I have been caught in a blogger loop of not being able to
leave a comment on some pages - I can see the page,
link to the party but once I try to
comment - the screen goes blank.


The thing is - I can probably fix it - however I didn't want
another Sunday to go by without saying:

THANK YOU ANN!
 It made my week to see that I was featured!

I Love Mr. Biff....

I really do.....he is very good to me and totally supports
my thrift finding, curb shopping style!  He bought me this
lovely journal recently.  It's so pretty - I am contemplating
printing some of my blog posts and somehow hole-punching
and threading them into the journal.....



I got a bunch of thrifty finds today....I will upload the photos
tomorrow.  I will also update where I am at with the impossible
challenge.

Blessings my friends,
