American Family Giveaway

What would you do with an extra $50K?

Me? Well, after taxes and tithe, we’d probably have about $40K left. I would redo my kitchen and the floors throughout my house. OH MY WORD! Would I have some nice floors! The kind I don’t have to vacuum anymore!

Ten Cool Coffee Mugs and one Jazzed Up Java Head

The day started off alright, and then I realized I was down to my last T-disc.  It was an Espresso disc, so I ran it four times to make a nice LARGE cup of energy coffee.  I unplugged the Tassimo, wrapped up the cord, and trudged into the laundry room.  With no enthusiasm at all, I unfolded the stepstool, climbed atop it, and put the brew wonder on the shelf.  From the shelf I retrieved the twelve-cup Mr. Coffee pot that takes FOREVER to brew coffee.  I trudged back into the kitchen, plugged it in, and looked forlornly toward the laundry room.

Then I posted on this my Facebook Wall

“I am a sad SAD panda.  Had to put the Tassimo away, I am out of t-discs, and break out the Mr. Coffee that takes FOREVER to brew a pot of coffee.”

I stood nursing my cup of joe as long as I could, and then I brewed a pot.

While waiting for it to brew, I found these cool coffee mugs and thought I would share…

After perusing the cool coffee cups, I stepped outside to grab the mail.  We had two boxes sitting in the garage, so I brought them in and called Hubs to tell him that he had a delivery.  He told me to go ahead and open them.

Hubs bought me a BUNN!

And now I am one Jazzed Up Java Head!

Free Return Address Labels

I just ordered free return address labels from Vistaprint.

I love it when this promotion comes around.

I chose to upgrade and add this image to my labels…

I am also including my web address.

Because I upgraded, and got priority shipping, I paid $6.07.  Had I stuck with one of their designs, and gotten regular shipping, it would have been $3.03.

Woot.

What will you put on your free return address labels from Vistaprint

Have I lost enough

To pull off this dress?

That Bald Chick

Seriously looking for an outside opinion!

That Bald Chick

My husband says I look hot in it, but he says I look hot in everything I put on, so, ya’ know…

We have a dinner to attend on the 20th, and my plan was to wear this dress with silver-tone jewelry and maybe a little cap sleeve sweater.

But, now, I am having second thoughts.  Thinking I am “not quite there yet.” 

AND, if I do wear it, I am at a loss for shoes.  I haven’t worn heels since before Mister was born, and honestly don’t own any.  Strappy sandals?  Dressy flip-flops?  Peep toe heels? 

UGH!  I haven’t stressed over getting dressed in a long while, but I want to look smashing for this dinner!

What do you think? And I mean, be brutally honest.  If you think I need to lose another ten pounds (or a coupla inches) before I step out the house in this, PUH-LEASE tell me.  I don’t want to be the one everyone whispers about behind her back.  At least, not for that reason.
