Am I moody?

I have a confession to make,  I have a thing for cows.  I still eat meat, but I find their faces to be endearing.  There is a dairy farm not too far from our house that we pass on the way to my sisters.  I joked about wanting a cow and the hubs nixed that idea.  I went on kiva and helped a man buy a cow (not for slaughter) to help provide money for his family.  The hubs just returned this morning from his trip home to Colorado.  He had to give me my present before I headed off to work.

   The kicker is that I'm not a morning person, so these are perfect for me.  And he even bought me the matching slippers.  Yup, that is love.....

Memorial Weekend

Wishing y'all a safe and happy Memorial Day.

I'm on Fire

I'm a huge fan of Kindle.   I have the original keyboard and the Fire.  The plan was to share the Fire w/the hubs...  Well, I'm not very good when it comes to sharing.  He wanted to take it with him to Colorado for 11 days.  I said no, go get his own (I'm addicted to Scrabble) and that's what he did.   I had a plain Jane case since it was to be shared, and I gave him the old case & started a search for a fun case for me.  Kate Spade was no longer offered on Amazon so I turned to my favorite site for monogrammed items.... Etsy.

I was thrilled when I found Lovey Dovey Creations.  They have an amazing selection of sleeves, folios and cases for Kindles, Ipads and laptops.

The best part is that you can choose the background pattern and color for most products.   

I'm looking forward to receiving my sleeve.  They have a variety of other items they sell, so go check them out.  I'm thinking that the key chains would make perfect gifts for our next girls weekend.  

search for the perfect short

I work in a very conservative industry and run into people I know through work on occasion. I am mindful of the length of my shorts as well as skirts when I am out and about.  The picks above would be perfect and since I started a base tan on my cruise.  Hmmm... I better get shopping.

I'm so glad that the hubs & I cruised with friends.  He was injured on the 1st day at sea and was in a wheelchair for most of the cruise.  He was a trooper and we made the most of it.  Above are a few pics  that I took with my phone.  I'm looking forward to cruising again in the future - sans injury.  

p.s. Yes, I did over pack. No,  I did not over eat.  :)
