I Thought You Would Never Come

Seriously, I was beginning to think I just dreamt that I ordered a pair of sandals. I had waited and thought about ordering a pair for so long that when I called and Vivian answered the phone I was too stunned to even make small talk. I ordered and I waited, waited, and waited and just when I thought I should call and check the reality of my order, they arrived today. They are worth every stinkin minute of waiting. (70 days from order to delivery)

I want them in every color! Would it be too obnoxious to have my monogram on every pair?

Monday, Monday

Because everyone's week should get off to a good start ...

A Few of My Favorite Things

I've been drawn to Nativity sets ever since I had to "make" one in 2nd grade. By make I mean color, cut out , and paste the holy family, wisemen, angel, and animals inside a shoe box manager. When I was done I thought it was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen, if I do say so myself. I wish I still had it. But I only started actively collecting nativity sets several years ago. Lolly usually buys me one for Christmas ,while she's in Huntsville visiting her Dad, at a place called Trade-Fair Marketplace http://www.fairtrademarket.googlepages.com/. Some of my favoirtes have come from Ten Thousand Villages http://www.tenthousandvillages.com/ and Servv http://www.serrv.org/. Wonderful things for a wonderful cause. I have my eye on this one made out of recycled paper...
