Nineteen days until the official first day of Fall! Wow, already so hard to believe. Just today I was looking out the kitchen window into the backyard and I saw a few leaves fall. I turned to William and told him, "I just saw a few leaves fall". He says "bite your tongue". Yeah, I don't think he is ready for Fall and to be quite honest, I'm not either. We are really enjoying our summer. During our Labor Day weekend, my honey as I like to refer to William spent some time doing some repairs to the house, not urgent repairs but things we wanted to fix, like our faucet in the bathroom needed replacing. We had recently had the bathroom redone, and by the way, it looks gorgeous. Back to the sink, yeah we used our old faucet and thought it was time for a new one, so a new went up. I like it, it matches the rest of the hardware in the Continue Reading
Shopping, Rain & My Girls
We went out shopping today, as we usually do on Saturdays, my only day to really go shopping. As we only have 1 car at the moment and my honey uses for work. Perhaps that will change in the future but for now, that is how it is. Today is Tuesday so it is a few days later :) I found an interesting page where you can shop online, it's really good! We went to the one of the usual places Dollar Tree! :) And picked up some Fall and Halloween decor, new things I didn't see last year and was really pleased with them. Similar to some things sold for more in other stores, got to love Dollar Tree. Check out the pictures below. How cute are these? Each item only $1, and how fun they look. I also picked up some Fall stuff check it out! See what I mean? Sure there are other things that look bigger and are more expensive, but I really do Continue Reading
It’s Fall Ya’ll, Finally!
I was beginning to wonder when Fall would actually hit us here in Massachusetts, at least where we are. And yes it is here, it is cold and my hands are drying up faster now. I have to continuously moisturize them or they can get bad, same with my legs and arms. This is our first Fall in our new home, it is so super exciting. We get lots and lots of leaves fall in the backyard, my honey mows them up and throws them into the little forest behind us. We did see what it was like during the Winter as we got the end of Winter time here. It was very deceiving, the yard is much bigger than it looks. It is one of those illusion type things lol. What do I have to share with you? Not a whole lot! Doing the YouTube thing so I will share a few videos with you. I did a little DIY I did recently to cover the back of my chair, it is what I call a Continue Reading
Hollar & Dollar1 Hauls – Are they worth it?
I like to save money where ever I can, using coupons, buying online, and I do both happily. I have been buying from Dollar1.com and hollar.com for a few months now. I am really happy with my purchases. I have received broken items from Hollar before, and they gladly replace it with no hassle. In my recent purchase from Dollar1.com, I bought some EOS lip balms for $1 each. Now that is a fantastic deal, however, upon opening the sweet mint I detected a stale smell which I was not happy with. I have emailed dollar1.com and hope to have my money returned or the item replaced, I doubt the item will be replaced because they are no longer on the website. As I am sure they get the items before the due date and try to quickly sell them out, which they do. The expiration date on the packaging states 2017/10 so in essence, it is still good, but the Continue Reading
Stores pushing Christmas, let me enjoy Fall!?!?

This past weekend, I shot a clip of the changing colors in the trees, it is looking so beautiful, check it out, I want to enjoy every little bit of Fall from leaves changing color, to them falling to the ground!! Even Dollar Tree has its catalog out, and Halloween hasn't come and passed yet. I tell you, the world is in a rush, it needs to slow down, and enjoy life! http://www.instagram.com/p/BLT47MGFyZ6 I hope you can see that! It is definitely getting colder, my cat Daisy is already feeling it, this morning she came under the covers with me, isn't that so sweet, I think it is. I was hoping lily would too. But not quite yet! I have been keeping busy, not exactly on things I would Continue Reading
