Meet Molly......my four legged, furry sister

There is a new addition in our family.

I got a new sister.

The four legged, furry kind of sister.

Meet Molly.

She is a retired Greyhound.

My Mom rescued (adopted) her

She is the sweetest, biggest, couch potato you ever met.

My Mom worked with a great organization in her adoption.

Racing Dog Rescue Project

It is truly amazing what these people do.

So welcome Molly to the family
She just might pop up here and there on my blog.
And who knows what trouble the 6 year old and her can get into.

Spring Pinwheel Mini Garland

I love paper punches.

And I am loving one of my newest additions.

It helped me make one of the cutest mini garlands.

Oh the possibilities I can do with this little punch.

FISKARS-Squeeze Punch Large Pinwheel - Jenni Bowlin Collection.

I picked mine up over at Joanns with a 50% off coupon

and I couldn't believe how easy it was to use.

1. Supplies needed - double sided paper, brads, and pinwheel punch

2. Punch out as many as you want (I got a bit carried away)

3. Fold over have of the triangle so the point touches the center

4. Secure a brad in the center (I cut a small slit to push the brad through)

5. Make one, two or twenty

String them on some twine and hang them up !

A nice way to welcome some warm weather.

Even though here its already been in the 80's.

Boy it is dusty in here..........

Boy is it dusty in here.

All I can hear in my head is 

The banging of hammers and

the buzz of the saws

As I attempt to give my blog a little makeover.

I think it is done.

Not sure though

I just can't figure how I want it to look

I put things on, I take things away......again and again.

But I am beginning to think the dust bunnies are going to take over for Easter.

So I plan on being back

Getting things done.

Not that I haven't been getting things done

Just not on the blog.

2013 has become to year to purge

I am beginning to think the 6 year old is getting scared

I haven't attacked her room as of yet

Because I am cleaning out

Using what I have on hand

And saying "Make it work"

(I love Tim Gunn)

I have been pinning

Drooling over other projects going on in blogland

and trying to figure out how to get things done on a small budget

Little by little the projects will get done.

I need my creative spark to kick back in

After I pull out the dustbuster !!!!
