Earworm: Barry Louis Polisar - All I Want is You


     i feel like deep down I am kinda of a romantic but for the most part I am a skeptic of love.  I believe in love, been loved and have loved but its been a looooooong time.  I am sure I still have the capability to but at this point it would take a lot to change where I am.  I think it scares me that my next love could be my last.  My forever and ever.  Thats a lot of pressure on me and the other person.  I am sure something will work out but when?...  Till then I will love love and love sweet love songs.  I am just looking for someone to make my heart lag...


Do you love love?

What I Learned: I Need a Place For Magnets

     friday?  Really?  This week flew by!  I feel like I just did this post for last week!  I have been feeling very crafty lately.  Which is kinda surprising considering I have been helping Rosebud with her DIY wedding.  Next week will be lots of making!
I love my cassette case iPhone cover but this could be really fun too!  I also love these DIY videos. 
 
I love love love succulents!  I think this could be fun with epiphytes too!

Wow.  I love the ocean.  This is a great visual of the depths of it.  

So I am a total noob when it comes to Etsy...  I have had my shop for quite a few years, but was too much of a wuss to list.  Now that I have I still trying to figure it all out.  I went to a Etsy meetup with Melissa this week and learned that non Etsy employees can make a treasury.  Duh...  I guess I am super unaware...  So I made a treasury (and a second one when I should have been writing this blog...)!  It was so much fun to make!  I can see many more of these in my future!

FYI, if you have a Gel manicure and get your pinky finger crunch by a car door it will break the nail and pop off the polish and look like you have lost your whole nail.  This would be less concerning if you are not in the woods, in the dark and mildly intoxicated.  I couldnt even look at it!  It hurt so much!  I was very glad I have friends who are willing to help me rip the last bit off.  /shivers  (I also like that the color of the polish has changed and faded.  It looks like a creepy french tip and not just mint green.)

Ways to save monies:  Retail Me Not
Craving:  Antipasti Bites
Need:  To get my nails done before camping and shop and pack and flea treat the cat...
Discovery:  Coffee makes me need to tinkle.  A lot.
How was your week?

Adventure: Picking Peaches

     this week I went peach picking with my mom.  We have been talking about going for a while and finally went.  As we drove to the farm it started to rain!  We got out of the car and by the time we found a cart the rain had stopped.  I wasnt super excited to pick in the rain but knew I could if need be.  I am a hardcore Oregon girl after all.


Buddy helped us pick.



My mom and I had a race, I am totally winning!

Sad...  Every time I heard a peach thump to the ground it hurt my heart.



My mom is sooooo cute!

 We picked 21 lbs!

Peaches eaten:  3
Thoughts on Justin and his glue gun:  I loved the idea, but his dress didnt really work out...  I want to make hot glue lace!  (yeah I am behind...)
Dogs bathed:  One and she was such a good girl!
Lists made:  6, only one for camping this weekend...

Love= Freckles

      i have always loved the fact that I have freckle.  I am never covered in them but I have quite a few.  I really loved them on my checks!  In the last few years I havent gotten many freckles.  I have been in the sun just as much, if not more, as previous years but I am way better about sunscreen in my old age.  So yes less cancer but also less freckles.  It is my goal to get some on my checks before summer is over!  I tried this weekend camping, but it was cloudy.  What is up with all our unsunny camping trips Rosebud?

What do you love?

New Pandora station:  Dirt Poor Robins they have shown up on my other Pandora stations, but I never gave them much attention.  Plus I havent heard of any of the similar artists from their info page.  I love new to me music!
Shocked at how badass Walter can be:  70% dude can be scary!  Till he begs for his life...
Hopefulness for sun this weekends on my camping trip:  90% embrace the hug mother nature!!!
Fruit to pick today:  Peaches, hope I dont fall off a ladder...
New game obsession:  Pixel People.  Look it up!  It is AWESOME!

Earworm: Sam the Sham & the Pharaohs - Lil' Red Riding Hood

     i have always loved the Little Red Riding Hood story.  I have had many red hooded sweaters and sweatshirts.  I think the idea of a big bad wolf is sexy.  Hence my love of Blutbads...  I also like the idea of being saved by a lumberjack, or just lumberjacks in general...

What I Learned This Week: I am Just Looking for a Brush

     gone camping!  Woohooo!  I am in great need of some fresh air and some water to swim in!  Granted I will be bringing my computer and writing, excited to get the heck out of dodge!

17 Euphemisms for Sex From the 1800s  My faves are Brush, Blow the Grounsils, Green Gown and Face-Making.

I am in love with this Youtube cooking channel.  I like Raw. Vegan. Not Gross the best!  Laura Miller is adorable!  I like her dry sense of humor and that she refuses to eat on camera!  Cute!

I also found a great blog about how people blog...  Awesome huh?  How They Blog is lots of interviews from bloggers on what they do.  This is why I love blogs!  I want to know what makes people tick.  I was also reading sillygrrl about how to start a blog.  I totally agree with No auto-play music!!!  Hate that...

I know Shark Week is over but I have been savoring all the shows.  Watching them slowly.  This week I watched Alien Sharks Megamouth.  So much better than Megaladon...  It was amazing to see these deep water giants make it to the surface.  Look out shrimp!  They are hungry...

I made friends with this little cricket at the wedding.  He trapped me in my tent...  Not cool!  I was able to escape on my own but it took 4 people to shake my little tent enough to get him out!  Well three people shaking and me doing a creeped out dance.  We also found 3 earwigs!  GROSS!!!!  Thanks Sheila, Shelly and Mike for saving me!  I have great friends!

My Future Ex Boyfriend: Jesse Pinkman from Breaking Bad

     i have been watching a LOT of Breaking Bad...  I started watching on Sunday night and I am now in the middle of...  Season 3...  Hardcore right?  I am like that with shows, a champion marathoner!  I mostly just let it run in the background.  Lets be clear, I am not even sure I like Jesse but I wanted a Breaking Bad post.  Ps, show is not a happy one.

How we would meet:  We do not run in the same crowd!  It would have to be a chance/random meeting.  The first time maybe in a coffee shop.  He still wearing oversized clothes and a silly hat.  He hits on me.  Starting with a "Yo".  I laugh but politely decline.  We would meet again months later after Jane.  He is far less thug-like and far more like a person.
Our first date:  Revisiting the first coffee shop where we first met.  We would chat and laugh.  I am sure he can be very charming, he seems to get what he wants, kinda.  There would be a lot less Yo Yoing.
Why we would be in love:  I am sure it would start with my good looks then he would see how funny I am but in the end it would be my great knowledge of meth cooking...  Plus we are both hot!
Our break-up:  When he gets his ass kicked by Hank and he becomes super anger and bitter.  I would also refuse to help him make meth and I would want to fix up the RV for road trips.
