Another Weekend Over..

I can't put down the ipod! Blair put the new Stone Sour cd on it last night & its awesome! I'd say it might be better than their first cd. That's just my opinion..My favorite song by far is "Say You'll Haunt Me". Check out the song & the video? 
 

 I did add 2 tanks, i had added them to uniquecharm.net & sold a few but forgot to list them on etsy (i know right, duhh) This weekend has been so busy, when i think i'll have a few minutes to myself my phone rings.Friday night Jenny & I had a girls night in but her boyfriend Wes was there so we let him partake in the festivities.She cooked & i brought a movie. It was "The Backup Plan". Last night Blair had a UFC party, Jenny & I got there early to cook while Wes & Blair played video games. We all had fun, the fight was over really late & everyone was tired & sort of buzzed. I met Jenny at Shelly Lake for a nice stroll around the lake because it was 75* instead of the usually 98*! Our high for next week is 81*, I'm so excited, i'm ready for fall!

Take a peek at the new listings (Already clearanced because fall's coming {eventually})

What to do with Wednesday

I've got to step out & pick up some anti-virus for my laptop. I don't think it's a good idea to be cruising around the internet without it these days. Although i did run out like 2 months ago, i decided not to push it. I bought some fabric yesterday & i'm a little confused as to what i'm going to use it for. I thought about making makeup bags, & some more zipper pouches. Please be honest. Now that school started is there any need for zipper pouches? I love the diversity of them though, you can use them for pretty much anything..

Outside my window

The sun is starting to go down & i was letting Punkin outside & looked up to see this (the photo above). There are actually 4 of them but 1 started hiding when i was started taking pictures standing on the deck. Here's Punkin! (below)

TGIF

I think im going to take it easy this weekend, im still trying to catch up on things i fell behind on during the week. I just woke up from a 2 hour nap, this week has kicked my ass. As i've said before, I don't like being an adult. I'm thinking about getting what i need to start my new project this weekend but i haven't quiet figured it out yet. I am certain i'm going to get a foot massage & a pedicure tomrrow morning. My feet are hurting so bad. :oP I believe i'm going to Fayettville tomrrow night to see "Attrcting the Fall". They're awfully awesome, my brother will be making the journey with me. 2 hours by myself in a car at night would suck. The ipod helps but i cant see after the sun goes down. Sunday is both my grandad & my cousin's birthday so we'll be picnic side with them this weekend too. I hope everyone has a safe & happy weekend!

New Friend Fridays

Friday can't come fast enough!

Hello you guys! I'm so glad it's almost Friday!!!! I need a break from work! A person can only take so much. I dream about power point presentations, book bindings, & Photoshop & Jasc design software! This week has flown by though. Without Ali ( Miss you!) at work it sucks because i'm fairly new & have no idea what the protocol on some of the rules are. Since we're located in Wakefield everyone seems to think they have an advantage because they're business people & sophiciated therefore they have to be right & everything has to be done right then! I think they all think im a magician, that i can magically snap my finger's & their designs will be done. I leave my wond at home when i'm at work. ( sorry! ) *happy dance* it'ss almost friday!

It's Almost Friday!

Today has been 1 of the longest day's it seems like! I got to work at 7:30am & didn't walk out the door until 5:30pm. Everyone went back to school today so you can imagine (some of you have even seen) the chaos. I'm so exhausted. I've stayed up late the past few nights & now it's really catching up to me, so needless to say i cant wait until Friday afternoon at 4pm! "Attracting the Fall" is playing in Fayetteville on Saturday & i've been invited to go, however.Fayetteville is like 2 hours from here! 

(More) New Projects are coming soon. I know i've said this a lot, but this time i mean it! It always seems like i never get a chance to finish anything because by the time i start i've already totally commited to something else (then the vicious cycle starts all over). You'll be seeing a lot of new things hanging around UniqueCharm.

~Dont forget the GIVEAWAY!~

How's Everyone's Sunday?!

I had off today from work but it was to pretty to stay inside all day. I was looking at my bookshelf last night & noticed my copies of "Sex, Murder and a Double Latte" & "Obsession, Deceit and Really Dark Chocolate" are gone. So i got on Barnes & Noble.com to see if i could find new copies of my favorite books. I haven't looked for any new books to read lately & i think i need more books. I love the mystery & thriller books. I noticed Kyra Davis has a few more books. I woke up & went to Barnes & Noble & found the books. They seem like they'd be good. I'll keep you posted. I also got a hangman book that is epically awesome! It has letters A-Z & silver scratch off's under the letters & the hangman outline on the other. You scratch off the silver under said letter & if theres any letters that match in the phrase it'll have the number's to put the letters but if not ya get a big fat "X".



How is everyone's Sunday?

Follow Me Back Tuesday

Today is the only day i've had off work in a little over a week! I've been a little busy today though, but now it's time to slow down. For the next few ( 2 at least ) days i'll be working 8-4. I gave my giveaway packages to my mom to send off yesterday. She dropped by today & i found them in her car! Now the P.O is closed & i have to work & wont get to it tomrrow either. GAHH!

I was out today so i got some oil ( for the sewing machine ), fabric, zippers, & thread. I plan to calm down & relax. So i'll be doing some crafty sewing in the next few days. It's back to school so i'll be doing some pencil pouches. I'll also be adding a lot of unique & custom designs. It's time to get back into it. I love it & i miss it.

Finally, It's Friday!

Please Read Before Linking Up
Thank you so much for coming today to link up to New Friend Friday. We've had such a GREAT response and we are truly blessed. However, there are a few reminders I want to put out there:
  • Family Friendly Sites only please. The past few weeks we've had to delete a site or 2 that was inappropriate. I hate to be the blog police but I really want to maintain the integrity of this blog and Tara and I are in agreement on this.
  • Please link to your home page (example: http://thegirlcreative.blogspot.com). Last week we had over 88 entries that were for parties, crafts, etc. I know this is a common mistake so no worries. :)
  • Remember to leave meaningful comments on the blog before and after you in the list. That's what this party is about. :) It's not about gaining the most followers or asking people to follow back. It's about visiting at least the blog before and after you (and as many as you want after that) and leaving comments and making friends.
Okay, this is hopefully the last time I have to spend time on this. I'd rather just PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)

******

Only-The-Curious


The idea behind this blog hop is very simple - click around & show some LOVE (via comments!) to your fellow bloggers! Following is NOT required, the only thing I ask is that you follow the host (me! for now anyways!) and follow the featured blogger in the #2 spot.

To join in on the fun, link up your blog via your own "Where's The Love Friday/Follow Friday" post, & try to visit at least 2 bloggers on the linky & show them where the love is! The linky will be open from Friday-Sunday every week!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This week I am breaking my own rules & featuring TWO bloggers! Both of these ladies were the FIRST to link up with Where's The Love Friday (even when I started it on a Sunday) & I really enjoy reading their blogs daily!

First up is Kendra Diaries!


Kendra is SUCH a sweet girl with not only one of the cutest little munchkins around, but her blog is by far one of my FAVORITES design wise!

Next up is Southern Reflections!


I have only been following Southern Reflections for a short while, but her blog is seriously one of the most uplifting, positive blogs I have read! I look forward to reading her posts!

Be sure to check out these blogs & follow these ladies - you would be crazy to miss out on what they have to offer! =)

Just a friendly reminder too before you all link up - please keep Where's The Love Friday to blog links only. This is not for giveaways or to promote anything other than your blog itself! I let it slide last week, but if a giveaway is linked up from now on, I will be removing it. Not to be a bitch or anything lol, but there are PLENTY of giveaway linkys out there & that's not my goal with Where's The Love Friday! My goal is simply to share the bloggy love via comments - so if you like that idea, link up your BLOG! =)


Happy Friday Everyone! ♥
