Friend Makin Monday

Yes, I know it's not Monday lol. I just saw a link up for this and I thought it was an awesome idea, so I wanted to do the last one so I remember to do the next one. That makes sense, right?

2) What is the last thing you drank? Diet Coke.

3) What's your favorite Girl Scout cookie? Samoas.

4) French Fries or Onion Rings? Onion rings from my fave dive bar!!

5) Share something you've done in the last week that makes you proud of yourself. I was proud of myself when I was selected for another test project at work that could affect how they do new hire training from now on.

6) What is your favorite inexpensive indulgence? Costume jewelry...I have so much now that inexpensive is prolly out the door lol.

7) Are you currently reading a book? If so, which one? I'm not currently reading one, but my next one is book #5 in the Night Huntress Series...gotta love my vamp books.

8) Do you prefer to text or talk? Text...or email.

9) Have you ever performed on stage? If so, what did you do? Yes, I was in grade school and I rang the bells at the Christmas show for the song "Carol of the Bells".

10) Are you more likely to pick truth or dare? I've been fortunate enough never to play this game, but if I did, I think I'd choose truth.

Friday's Shoegasm

Posting my Shoegasm a little late this week. I have found an amazing shoe site called Dino Direct. I so need to win the lottery!!! On to my choice for today...the sexy pair of red platform heels that I'm in love with!! They're $30 and free shipping. I didn't check to see if they have my size, well because...if they did, the next picture you'd see is them on my feetsies!!! Aren't they gorgeous?!

Finally...

...I got around to making a decision on what I wanted to do with all my crafty goodies. My craft cave is also my step daughter's bedroom when she lives here, my space for my purses and shoes (yes, I'm aware I have issues), and usually "THAT" room that has the door shut when we have company. I'm trying to convert it into something less traumatizing. I purchased a really cheap inexpensive bookcase from Target for $16. The last time I was in Jo'Anns they had photo boxes for half price so I picked up several, still a few short though. I think the French themed decorations on the top cost more than the whole rest of the unit lol. For the last two months Michaels has had their Ashland French line on sale so I've been picking up pieces here and there to add to the collection, and I'm almost finished. The lettered photo holders are going to hold pictures of Paris shortly. I also have decided on my labeling system, now I just need to decide on some creative tags. You know you just can't type something up lol. I was thinking of stamping each label. So without further ado....


Which do you like better, with or without the cream colored flowers?
