POTD....Color & Organizing!

This Post is SO not SCRAPBOOK related :)

Since the weekend has begun, I thought I'd share just 2 

Pictures of the Day...

I'm embracing my new hair color...(no more gray)!!!

& I'm starting phase one of organizing my dressing room/closets.

Now, I need to begin removing price tags hanging up all of my purchases so that I can shop in my own dressing room. I hope to have 90% of it done by Sunday.

Thanks for stopping by...Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Tuesday Toot!!

This past weekend has been somber..as I'm dealing with death in my family.

But as I went thru emails...

I was presently surprised to find out that I was selected to be a

 part of the Nuts About Sketches Design TEAM!

I thank Shawn Lahr for selecting me as I just LOVE sketches to create with!

Hopefully, I will get alot of creating done to get my mind into a happy place.

BTW today is National Pancake Cake Day at IHOP.

Everyone can get unlimited short stack of pancakes. They are requesting a donation instead for the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. I definitely will try to stop there today.

Hope all of you have great Tuesday!..
