Absolutely awesome

This is the coolest stamp ever.  

And it was 40% off.  You can't

beat that.

I've never made a starburst before, either.

 I think that turned out pretty well.

I saw the stamp, though, and I just

had to have it and had someone in mind

for it before I ever picked it up off the shelf. 

I love this stamp!

 

I think I have grass spiders again.  I used

to have them in the bushes which is one of

the reasons I wanted them gone.  Now they

are all over the grass again and also in the

vinca.  I don't see funnels in most of them 

but I did see one in the yard that had a funnel

down to the ground and a hole in the ground.

 I'm not sure how to get rid of them short of

calling pest control and having the yard 

sprayed.  My neighbors do that every year

because of ground bees-which I have had

three times.  I imagine it's expensive.  I

sure don't want them coming into the

house, though.  My house is locked up

pretty tight and I rarely even get a fly in

here, and although I'm not technically

scared of spiders, I would prefer not

to live with them.  Maybe I'll call the

pest control peeps out and have them

give it a look.

 

Yesterday my brother in law and sister

in law came over and we tore apart that

huge 80's tv stand which has been dominating

my living room for the past 18 years.

I can't BELIEVE how much better

 it looks in here!   It looks a little bare at

the moment because I'm used to seeing

that behemoth, but I'm loving the

cleanness of it.

 

Happy Friday!
