Good evening!
My sweetie and I got home from work this evening, and I was very happily surprised to see that I had not one, but two packages in the mail!! BOOKS!!! Yeah!! 😉
Last week I finally broke down and ordered 4 books that I have been drooling over for quite some time now!!
Life is a Verb by Patti Digh
Creative is a Verb by Patti Digh
Surface Treatment Workshop by Darlene Olivia McElroy & Sandra Duran Wilson
Simple Soldered Jewelry and Accessories by Lisa Bluhm
I normally would not buy 4 new books at a get-go, not since my Border’s days anyway, but these were at such a great discounted price on Amazon, that there was no way that I could make myself pass them up!! Anyway, I am so excited to read them, and put their knowledge to good use!! I most definitely need to keep creativity alive in my life! It makes me a happy girl!!!
What else is going on in my little world?? Well, I have implemented a daily chore chart – I think I had mentioned that I was going to do that in an earlier post – and I did, and my sweetie and I really liking it! We don’t have to guess what still needs done, and we both get a sense of accomplishment when we get to cross out things off of our list! Besides our Christmas stuff being scattered all over the living room (still working on re-organizing that), our house is now the cleanest that it has been in weeks!! YEAH!!! 😉
Tomorrow night is Chunky Dunker’s night here in Christinaville, and then on Thursday night, I am planning on sharing some pics with you of my niece and nephew’s basketball games that we got to go to this past Saturday! I know you will love them!
Anyway, I am going to get some try and make some more headway on getting this Christmas stuff put away before we call it a night!!
Have a FABULOUS evening!
“If you want to have a different life, live differently!”
You will adore Patti Digh’s books. I still need to pick up Creative is a Verb. I’ve read Life is a Verb and I swear, it makes me want to go hug everyone! She will make you laugh and cry and think and hold your life more precious than you ever thought possible!
Nice to meet you!
Hi Liesl, it is very nice to meet you too!! I am loving reading her book Life is a Verb. I can tell that this is the kind of book that makes you want to stop and really take a look at your life with new eyes!! 😉
