Mish Mash Monday

Well - I'm at a loss as to what I should post this week. Nothing terribly exciting has happened lately.

1)
I've managed to paint the ceiling in the craft room yesterday. I hate painting ceilings!!!!! I used paint with primer in it - sure cuts down on the coats of paint needed.
Walls - this week!


2)
Blog of the week!
Photobucket

This is a wonderful blog, so much fun to visit :) Every Friday she posts pictures of herself from years ago with the story behind the picture. You also get to see weekly items she's making, beautiful pictures she's taken, and once a week or so she has a guest post on another blog - but links to it so we can read that too. This is definitely a blog you should check out - never a boring moment!!

3) I love to read! Finding the Tuesday Teaser meme was wonderful. Now every Tuesday I can see what other people are reading and get great ideas for summer books. The only draw back is that my list to read is way longer than my summer will be :)

I had been writing all the books down in a notebook, but then I noticed a widget on one of the other blogs that I just had to have. It's from
Goodreads. Every time I find a book I want to read - I just go to the site, search it and add it to my "to read" list and it shows up on my blog!! Now I don't have to worry about loosing the paper I write them down on!

4) The trees are finally starting to bud and my rhubarb is coming up nicely!! Can't wait to make some rhubarb pie, muffins, rhubarb crisp etc!!


HAVE A GREAT WEEK EVERYONE!!

  1. A friend told me about GoodReads, but I'm already using Shelfari, that is essentially the same thing!

    Yay for painting being done faster!

  5. I love rhubarb, my mom and dad had a patch when I was a kid...it is a rite of spring for sure.

    I am going to have to look into that primer in the paint, I need to repaint the kitchen after our little fire.

  7. Aw Audrey, you are too sweet! I share the love right back at ya :) Painting ceilings....ICK!!!! I've only done it once and I was convinced I was going to blind with all of the paint I got in my eyes (and that was while wearing glasses, mind you). By the end of it, my back hurt, my neck hurt and my arms were numb. Never again!!!

    I hate painting ceilings, but I love painting walls.

  9. painting ceilings is not one of my favorite things to do. I think I end up with more paint on myself than I do the ceiling.
    Cool widget. Very handy for a person like me who always loses the paper list.
    Gotta check out your blog of the week too, sounds like a good one.

  11. Gosh I have missed reading you Audrey!! You always have wonderful posts. Best of luck with your Rhubarb..... reminds me of my childhood.... We would dip it in sugar and eat it raw in my neighborhood... lots of farms and gardens had it growing....
