Boy I'm a Slacker! #11 and #12!

I've been in a blog funk the past 2 days...not because I didn't have my thankfuls...because I do! But because I just didn't put forth the effort to sit down and blog about it!

For 27 Days of Thankful with my friend Amanda, days 11 and 12, I am thankful for my friend Tanielle. TWICE!

FIRST...on Tuesday night I had a Young Women's activity, so of course I wasn't able to watch my show. (you know...SYTYCD). I was going to Tanielle's after YW, because my family would all be going to bed early...the kids because of school and Hubby because he had to do an all night job the night before, THEN work during the day as well, so he was seriously sleep deprived. Since Tanielle's husband is working out of town, I sometimes go keep her company after Young Women's. I digress. You should be used to it by now. I said to Tanielle "you HAVE to watch the show for me and give me a full report when I get to your house."

The girl TOOK NOTES y'all! I get there and she pulls out this little notepad...she has written down each couple, the style they performed, what she thought of the dance, and what each of the judges responses had been. Seriously...I am thankful to have a list-lovin', super organized, slightly obsessive compulsive, dedicated friend who would go to the effort to take notes for me about my show!!

THEN...today was kind of a crap day. Nothing major...but ya know those days when there's just lots of little things, and you're just in a crap mood? Yeah that was me today. Well, T calls me a little after 10, and she says she's in a crap mood too, and she's going to get a veggie burrito to drown her sorrows. I tell her of my heart's deepest desire for a nice cold Dr. Pepper. So what does she do? She gets me one and brings it on over on her way back home. Isn't that just the best? Yeah I thought so too.

So now I'm sittin' here, sippin' my DP and thinking that I'm thankful for a friend like Tanielle...TWICE!

What are you thankful for?

Hand Made for Fall - A party and a Giveaway!

I've been a busy girl! I have been wanting to do a giveaway for Fall, and when my fab friend Heidi revealed that her Monthly Craft Challenge for October would be Fall-themed crafts, I thought "YES! I will do a giveaway of Fall items - handmade by me!" So today I'm linking up with Heidi , and introducing my Handmade For Fall Giveaway as I show you what I've made for Heidi's party ! Sound good? First, a while back I showed you some coasters that I made, but it was clear back when I first started blogging, so I'm going to show you again with this new seasonal set! This idea has been floating around blog land, and I've seen several different variations. Here's how I do it. You will need: paper napkins, 4x4 ceramic tiles, 4x4 cork squares, MOD PODGE (what else?), sponge brushes (not shown), and polyurethane (not shown). Start by cutting your napkin down to a manageable size, slightly bigger than your tile. Next spread a layer of mod podg onto the t...
