Inspiring!!

Yes it's a CoConut DREAmmmmmm.... this is the yummeeeee and also Pretteeeee cake that Sweet P made for my birthday... Why coconut cake you ask?

When I was a little girl, I loved coconut cake and and soon it was an established tradition that on my birthday, I got a coconut cake!!! It always made me feel special and yes you guessed it.... LOVED!!! Yikes! There I go again; Food = Love!!! I know, I know... but It does make me feel loved, so there you go! And love I did feel and I also felt grateful that P went to so much trouble to make me a cake for my birthday! Next year I must make one for him!! This years his birthday was kinda not as much fun as it has been, because of circumstances beyond our control...
And yes you are right by thinking that CoConut Cake is high in point values, according to W.W. So I am still not on track with my food plan and it is starting to get on my nerves.... But I sure did enjoy that Wonderful Cake!! :-P



Here is the GREAT Turquoise inspiration table... That I talked about earlier!!! Isn't She lovely? She is now residing in my living room, right beside the sofa!


Now for some other great inspiration... Flowers made from plastic water or soda bottles... Cute, huh? I have already begun collecting bottles and these are going to make great gifts!!! I will post my pictures at a later date...
Well for now I must say farewell... and get busy! LOL there is always so much to do!! What are you waiting for?

Love , Vonnie

Time to get busy... but yet I hesitate!

I know there is a lot to do... So what am I waiting for??? Gosh darn-it! I am the worst about procrastinating... I know I am delaying my own good... and yet I still do it! Frustration, with no one but myself. I did get a great book today "Journal Bliss" Creative prompts to unleash your inner eccentric. Great art work in the book, I have basically just skimmed through it... and would like to do some more but I think for now, to bed I will go!!
Busy day tomorrow, getting ready for a wedding at work, it all has to be finished tomorrow!! So hopefully I won't have to work late, but we will see!!!
For now I say good nite, and yes the desk is still in the dining room, with only one coat of turquoise paint on it. And the corsages are not made yet, and and and and... I hope I can sleep!

Turquoise!

I have been inspired, somewhat, by a turquoise table... It is truly Divine, and Thank You Very Much to my Brother and Sister... it is mine!! So cute!!! My sister found it at Trade Days in Bowie. She decided that she didn't want it, I decided I did, and the seller came down on the price. So Vicki and Eddie made it mine!!!! This table is the reason I went out and bought a small container of Turquoise paint... I painted a picture frame, a chalkboard frame... both of them loook FAB! and then I started on my desk... but alas I need more paint...

What have I done? There is no turning back..

FYI: lost 1.2 lbs on Tuesday... i don't know how, but HEY its all good!!! I can hardly wait until next week!!! HA HA haaaaaaaaaaaaaa... ok, ok.... I will be good... Have been everyday until tonite and even that wasn't horrible! :-/
Soooooo there you go.... tomorrow is a Brand New Day!!!

Sad about alot...Happy about more!

You know how it is... I feel sad and yet I am Happy at that same time. Life is like that I suppose. Since the last time I wrote my family has suffered a loss. Things just haven't been the same since. People are distant, that shouldn't be... after a loss shouldn't we just become closer to each other? Well it doesn't always work that way, sadly. Therefore I am sad for the moment, but happy in the long run.
My journey towards weight-loss heaven has been harshly delayed, my fault, I know... And P just left this morning, for his second summer break. It will only be a week separation, only...Then it will be my birthday... I won't complain, I will enjoy. I am getting back on the track today, I am getting back on the track today, I am getting back on the track today!!! You know... stopping the Eat-A-Thon!!! I believe in me and I believe I can do this!!!! So today is a new beginning and away I GOOooooooooooo..... Wish me luck and good wishes to you as well!
