    Total Copycat

    Yep, I am. I hate clutter, hate it, hate it, hate it! BUT, go in your kitchen, open up your drawers, how many are junk drawers, drawers that are just hold everything, papers that you mean to throw away but haven’t, yeah, I had 2 of those, the sad thing is, I only have 5 drawers in my kitchen counter tops!

    So, when Melissa posted these I couldn’t wait to start! Only on my junk drawers though, my cooking utensils that aren’t in a pitcher on the counter are in a drawer (as neat as they can get anyway, am I the only one with like 100 cooking utensils?!) and my regular silverware is in another.

    So I followed her directions HERE except, the foam board I used has spaces in-between the foam so it cuts WAY easier and you get a cleaner cut. Here’s one of mine:

    Yes, those are the cheap 99 cent batteries, my kids go through batteries like candy so I told them to buy their own for their cameras, they were cheap and bought the 99 cent ones LOL.

    Here is Melissa’s:

    Isn’t it awesome?! and the best part! I can’t stuff any papers in there, so it shall be forever organized :) unless I rip it out, which I like it so much I know I wont.
     
    I haven’t finished the other one, I ran out of my type of foam board and can’t find anymore (UGH) so I cut some of the regular Elmer's foam board and am trying to get it to go in there without looking “hacked”. I can’t cut that stuff as good as she did!

    Now to go do the other drawer, that one is for bibs, hand towels, kitchen cloths, etc.

    So go check out all her awesome crafty stuff, I wish I had her talent!

    Feeling Lucky

    Sooo, while carrying in groceries I noticed the whole front of my house is covered in ladybugs. I absolutely LOVE ladybugs! My Katie is just obsessed with them as I am.

    Naturally, I dropped the groceries, grabbed my camera, and had to snap some pics!

    Kinda creepy huh? There is about 50 of them out there, and now I’m finding em in my house! Ugh, I love ladybugs but I’m actually getting the heebie jeebies from them lol.

    Maybe I should go buy some powerball tickets and test out my luck ?




    ***Edited***
    I did some research, apparently they are looking for a place to hibernate... now thats just lovely. Oy! My house is surrounded my ladybugs and.... BEES :(

    Breaking out the Falloween decor.

    Hi! :) I’ve been MIA. But all is good now and I’m back, I do that a lot, terrible habit, but I hate to waist your time and have you read something that's really not all that interesting.

    The Mr.'s Grandfather died last week, so we were very busy with that, he was taking it pretty hard as he went to their house every weekend as a child and one of his daughters does the same thing now, so it was pretty hard on both of them, watching his grandmother go through that was so hard! She is the sweetest woman ever. He died in his sleep due to heart problems. He is in a better place now though and is no longer in pain.

    On to happier things. It’s Fall! Its actually feeling more like Winter, i see out in blogland some folks have had some snow, please keep it, we don't want any of it here! I love the Snow but I’m so not ready for it yet! Plus, I haven’t even dug out my Halloween / Fallish things yet!

    Here are some I’ve picked up recently I thought I’d share. (after I did this I realized I needed to dust, just try not to look to hard :))

    This is just a small peek, I’m thinking it might be too late to drag out the rest.

    Thanks for looking!
