That is so sweet! I see two magazines I would enjoy that I don't subscribe to already!

What a great idea!! You can never have too many magazines. Very generous of you. I find that yard clothes can be quite flattering and comfortable.....My best yardclothes story.....When meeting some of my new neighbors at a get together, one elderly lady said, "You are so lucky, I see your sweet husband out there every day working in your yard," That is what overalls and a baseball cap will get you. Now I make sure to wear my straw hat with the big bow!!
Warm Wishes,

Laura, Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your blog. I'm new to blogdom and discovered you by way of Janis at Junkdreams. You are a talented writer and I love your wit. I'm a fellow Texas girl (Lubbock)and a Certified teacher (even though I took a different career path). I love that your blog is intelligent and feels like a comfortable conversation. I feel like I know you even though we've never met. I don't own a store or a website so I'm not sure I'm eligible for your giveaway but just wanted you to know that I'm a big fan. Please keep writing ~ it's like a warm hug every time I read. Good luck to the winner and thanks for letting me gush! :) Oh~and loving the Buble!!

Unknown said...

Hi Laura, I am late for the party as usual! I also have missed a couple of your posts and have to tell you that I LOVE your daybook posts. Call me a stalker, but I love knowing just what you are up to down there in Texas. I would love to talk to you on the phone sometime just to hear your accent. You know in Idaho we don't have accents.hehe
I love both mags, but I decorate more like Romantic Homes, so I guess that is the one I like best. What an awesome giveaway. Oh and by the way, are you still wearing your yard clothes???
hugs

Kat said...

I just discovered your blog. You got me when you mentioned that you were a retired teacher. I am completing my third year teaching; I am 48 years old. I will probably never retire. I will probably die croaking out, "Conventions, students, conventions! Capitals and periods are important--you are professional students!" My students will say, "The old broad was crazy but, devoted though. She cared." You have made me laugh out loud--I even called my daughter over to read your post (master bathroom—that last gem about spray painting the light fixture precariously atop the ladder). What a hoot! Thank you! Peace, Kat :)
