Random thoughts on a beautiful, summery, sunshiney spring morning:
1. I’m sitting out in the sunshine with coffee this morning typing this. The birds are cheering me on and I’m telling the neighborhood hello
2. If you missed this week’s edition of “What I Bought Wednesday,” you can see it here. Wait until you see the leggings I found!
3. Did anyone see that there’s going to be a Downton Abbey TWO movie coming out? I almost had a come apart I was so excited when I heard.
4. It was an amazing week on the blog. We discussed my latest yard sale find and what I did with it and these simple tips to organize your linens wrinkle-free and these seven lessons I want to teach my daughters.
5. I have the best tip to fray your pants if you are short like me. Just CUT THEM OFF and then toss them in the dryer and the dryer frays them.
6. I’m heading out to go yardsaling. There are SO MANY good ones today. You can see my entire yard sale haul from last week here.
