Monopoly

Image
Sick of my substandard pictures yet? Yes s o am I! Stoopid "selfie gen" camera I saw this at Dollar Tree for $1.25 and had to get it. I love the colorforms! That's my fabulous generation! It's perfect for vacation.  They also had Sorry, Trouble and Battleship but I think you can figure out why I would choose Monopoly out of those choices. It has to do with no one allowing me to play at Girl Scout camp and never owning one. New life closure.

What does it say?

I needed to decorate my back door. I walk inside every day and it's depressing. Dollar Tree had many that said Fall but it's right by steps. Autumn is my favorite season.  As you can see I have more cleaning to do with the Norwex  EnviroCloth  and I have to glue one of the blinds and there's pulls on the other side to be replaced. Why so much work? When I was looking for replacement "tassels" they're called I realized blinds are becoming obsolete! I purchased them from fix my blinds dot com.  I need a new door ($$$)

My big idea

Image
I decided to finish the swing by adding more cushions from Dollar Tree. They're covered in like windbreaker material and washable. The more expensive ones are spot clean only. I checked!  Back to the kitchen. At first I wanted to paint and add trays with the rollers but I'm just going to back it up to lining what I have ($$$)  But with what since they are so deep? Tablecloths from Dollar Tree! These are black and grey so will match my drawers. Such an exciting idea I just can't handle myself.

Got busy

I gave up and am focusing on my kitchen right now. The house is in 2010. Baking center on the left and Cooking center on the right. My birthday this year is going to take forever! Back to Dollar Tree/Family Dollar! I bought the cupcake holders, papers, icing bags, candles, blue icing and sprinkles... And then I ate all the cupcakes! PLAIN The good news is that I also got a pie and cake holder. Then I purchased a cake board to keep inside.  So yesterday I purchased a white cake mix, icing spreader and one of those cool scrapers and troubleshooted. Labor Day! White cake, blue on blue icing... I'm even going to sit here and separate the red white and blue sprinkles from the yellow, orange, pink and green sprinkles. It may or may not have candles. *grin*   BTW the items in the picture above cost me $5

Still discussed

You thought I wouldn't Notice?

 I won't be there so don't worry. I lived in Los Angeles when the Olympics were there in 1984 and saw the torch run by in Canoga Park but ended up watching them on TV. I think someone said on one of the videos that it's the home team so I'm still happy!  A "no build- no car" plan I saw on YouTube today. They have 70,000 homeless that they think they'll relocate like Paris did. LAX has changed since 2007! I did an imaginary vacation and would focus on the Artistic Swimming in Long Beach  I would then watch the surfing and skateboarding. Jagger Eaton ! I also was happy to see the Valley was going to be included with BMX in the Sepulveda Basin I liked Tom's entrance and hand off . Cheered him on. I have my T-shirt! I bought it at Family Dollar. I looked up my favorite Olympics in two years - the Winter Olympics are going to be in Italy in 2026. Tickets will be going on sale in February 2025 for the events.

A new song!
