Sweetiepie and I have taken the challenge. I found this on Pinterest if you start right away you can catch up~the year is still young

All you need to do is save the dollar amount of whatever week you are in during the year. Week one you add $1, week two, $2 and week fifty-two, $52. Add that all up and you have a cool $1378 dollars saved at the end of the year. If you are staring this a bit behind, You’ll need to add the weeks you missed totals to your starting week so that you’re on schedule. This should be relatively easy since the dollar amounts are so low the first couple of months.

ADDICTION!

Out with the OLD..........

Ever since my little "staycation" at the 

Banner Hilton (not)

I don't like (I can't believe I'm about to say this)

Diet Cherry Dr. Pepper.  Yep, it's true, haven't had a taste of the stuff since about the middle of December.  

In with the NEW.............

yep, now I'm addicted to Jamba Juice. 

I stock up on them.......

I have a shelf reserved for them in the freezer. 

I love them frozen...and just a few seconds in the microwave makes them just perfect.    

It's about time.....

It's Feb. 4th and I still had the wreaths decorated for Christmas hanging in the dining room and when the french doors were closed this is what it looked like from the rest of the house........not so pretty.

So, finally......I found the ribbon I've been looking for at 
Hobby Lobby ( 1/2 price)
and
waaaaaaaaaaa laaaaaaaaaaa!
Love the new French Country look.    
It's time to start doing some sprucing up around here!  

SUPERBOWL Sunday

This is how it goes down at our house on 

Superbowl Sunday~

Do you have a big shin-dig?

Breakfast

This is what I woke up to this morning..........

Fresh orange juice

made special just for me

by this pair of the hardest working hands I have ever seen

Kinda makes getting up on a Saturday morning not so 

bad after all!  

Special delivery..........

Look what came in the mail today.......

special delivery to Aunt Bev!
It made my ♥ skip a beat~I'm not gonna lie~
I never get mail!  Today was my lucky day!!!

Here's the  best part.....
