a few of my favorite things.....

it has been such a crazy month of june....i had my sons stepping up from grade school,my daughters prom and graduation from high school. a myriad of birthdays and graduation parties dispursed along with father's day....every day we had something,literally!....i am breathing a sigh of relief that it is all over,and although i am a little let down after so much enjoyment and pride, i am looking forward to relaxing a bit.i got so many FABULOUS birthday gifts that i thought i would share some with you,starting with THE ART OF TIM BURTON along with the cutest MARC JACOBS bag that looks very tim burton-ish!!!.......if you are a fan of tim burton this book is a must have!.....next up some lovely art supplies from PAPER PRESENTATION,delicious italian paper and tags,just the right size to hold my MOO cards.i got TREASURED NOTIONS,the most delicious book about TINSEL TRADING COMPANY!, and many many other fabulous books and things....as well as the new IPHONE,which isn't in yet, so that will be an added surprise that i am awaiting!....i am a lucky, lucky girl!!!!!

the to do list.....

i have not been feeling myself as of late....and

                  it                  dawned                    on                        me            that       its because i haven't made any to do lists......i haven't done much in the way of writing at all....ghastly!....i love making "to do" lists, i feel with it, together, and oh so grown up....its a feeling of accomplishment as i cross each item off on my list!...so today in an effort to feel more in charge i got out my trusty " to do" book and started to make my list!...and i actually crossed off many of the things off my list today! yippee!!!!!...
