It's a Sickness

I tell ya... it really is... shopping that is. I had a lot of running around to do last week. Installing drapery for a client. Picking up deposits from new clients. I got the shopping bug too... I wanted to do some clothes shopping because I needed some new tops and new shoes for summer. The Husband needed new clothes too. Lately, he has been ruining his at work, either getting guck/stains on them or tearing them at job sites. So while I was out and about I decided I would run into Winners (which is the equivalent of TJ Maxx in the US) -love this store. Boy, did I score. I got 2 pair of sandals. I was only really trying to find a comfortable black slip on pair, which I did, that would go with everything, but then I found these and I just couldn't pass them up.














I always find it hard to find shoes, so when I do and they are super comfortable I scoop them up. Got a pair of pants and 2 shirts for the Husband. A Liz Claiborne black straight skirt, that was originally $99.00 for $22.00. Wasn't really looking for it, but it fit so good and who could pass up that deal and I also got, which I was really looking for... 3 tops. My old black ones have had it so these new black shoes will be great for everyday wearing with... skirts, shorts, capris, you name it.

So after I finished there, the fabric store was right next door so I decided to pop in since I hadn't been there for awhile, and see what was new. I tell ya, the stars were aligned that day or something because they were having an inventory clearance and I found the most gorgeous fabric. Remember when I found this? Well, I scored again and found Michael Miller and Jersey Girl's Chelsea Morning this time. They are gorgeous and feel so wonderful. I can't wait to get into them. The polka dot on the end is a Robert Kaufman.
Sweetpea and Sunshine had a recital on Friday. They both play the piano. They did great and we are so proud of them. Sunshine received an award that was presented to her by her teacher for outstanding work, which was a great surprise since we didn't even know about it til that night.
Getting off the stage pronto!
The weather has finally warmed up around here. Finally! Thursday I had my car heater on to take away the chill and on Friday I had the A/C blasting because it was 104 F with the humidity. Crazy, eh?!

Sunday was our 17th wedding anniversary, but 22 years together. Man, time sure does fly when you are in love! We spent the afternoon at my parents
with family, swimming in the pool, had a great bbq and my mom opened up the bubbly to celebrate the occasion. It was a great day!

Oh! I also stocked up on more ribbon.....



I told you it is a sickness! lol

This week promises to be a busy week too. Following up on things from last week. Ordering fabric, making deliveries, picking things up. My in-laws 50th anniversary is next week, so I am setting things up for that along with Father's Day this Sunday....

Have a great week!
