The "rad" van & an award - Nest of Posies

No. I don’t own this van. I wish I did. You know how a vehicle or vehicles can describe a person. Well, I would use one of these van (among other vehicles) to describe me. Don’t get me wrong, I can also put a really pricey one on the list. But I love these vans. This one was extra cool. The owners were at the Hwy 127 yard sale. Selling??? I’ll give you one guess…tie-dyed baby onesies. It was in mint condition. I loved it. Over the weekend I found the following quote, and I thought it was so appropriate for anyone taking a last minute road trip before Summer ends. Would love to have double money & take this van out on the road!

Finally, I am so excited to get another award. My cousin Maegan. is always so kind to include me in her fabulous circle of friends. Maegan has such a knack for words & expressions, what she said in giving me this award on her blog, melted my heart. If she only knew how excited I get to visit her birdhouse & see what is going on in her life. Obviously we are family, but after we both entered the blogging world around the same time, we have become the best of friends. For this alone, I am so thankful.

So along with accepting this award, I’m to share 5 things I am wanting to do right now. So here’s goes:

1. I want to wave a magic wand & rewind the weekend. I was able to visit my dear friend Sibi and 2 of her beautiful girls on Saturday. I hadn’t seen her in 6+ years. It was so good to hug her neck, and be inside her exciting world. Even if it was for just a few hours. Sunday, I was lucky enough to have an impromptu visit with another dear friend, Leah. We were able to visit our local Farmer’s Market together & then I dined on local produce for lunch at the market. It was such a treat.

2. I am wanting/planning on making this today. (I was going to do a post on this website I found. It is not a “cutesy” blog style. But I love this website.) Full of good info. From farms, food, activities, recipes, and so much more. Just plug the state you live in, and it is amazing to see what will come up!

3. I want to create. My mind is dangerously full of stuff & ideas to do. Chief’s eyes are stuck in the back of his head over this. He is not the shabby chic kindof husband. Oh goodness.

4. I want to again wave a wand, and have all of these out-grown kids clothes vanish from my bedroom. It is a mess.

5. I have 3 huge stacks of things I want to put on EBay. I hope I can list at least 10 items before the week is up. One step at a time, right???

What are you wanting to do right now – or this week? Any short term goals? What is that quote??? “If you say it, then you’ll probably do it?” Maybe it will come to pass if you claim it & say it! I sure hope mine do.
