The Weekend Zoomed By



I received a gardening magazine in the mail on Saturday. It has me almost in the m ood to start looking through last year's pictures to give me ideas on what to change this year.

I always forget the new things I planted in the fall. I keep a file on the computer with just the new things in it. Usually in February I look through it and get all excited about what will be coming up.




I found this issue lacking in worthy content--even the pics did not do much to inspire.

Every magazine I get goes downhill with the first issue of the new year.

I also did just a bit of internet shopping over the weekend. Last week I threw away a tattered handbag, so I had to replace it.

I love red handbags and have not had one in a while. So I bought one of those.

Then I saw a purple one. I like that color, too. Truth be told, I like just about every color in handbags. This is a nice slim organizing model.

I played around with some quilt blocks this weekend, but did no cleaning or cooking. There is always next weekend for that stuff. :)

  4. Cute bags-I'm not into changing out my purses too often, but I am using a wallet that is way too big and it won't fit in many. I do like the colors you picked.
    Did retail therapy on Sunday-75% off some blouses and an orange windbreaker/rain coat. Yep, orange!
    I usually skim through the gardening magazines in the grocery store. I have so many gardening books now, I start to go through them in late winter too.

  7. Hi Sally, I am not sure it will go with the glasses - they are pink. I think they will go better the purple one. :)

    LOL Deb, I didn't used to think that way. Something about getting older seems to make us put less emphasis on housework and more on having fun.

    Betty, The one I had to throw away was black. I like black best, but am getting tired of it. I have another black one anyway and that is what I carry to work. These are more for fun weekend activities.

    Tonight I had to come home and start cooking immediately. I hate that, but it's the payoff for not doing any over the weekend.

    Dianne, Can you believe I used to change my purse everyday? LOL. I always matched it up to what I was wearing to work--that was a few years back. Now I carry the same black one everyday. Orange windbreaker--I love it! I am still liking the color orange. I think it's even very "in" this year. 75% off---that's my kind of retail therapy!

    Hi Suzy, That's why I take pictures every year and save them on my computer. Without those pics, I would be digging up and killing a lot of new plants.

  8. The red purse if to die for. I hardlyn ever change my purse. I buy one and use it until it wears out. I get a neutral color. Right now I'm carrying a golden tan bag, looks like a horse feed bag! Anyway, I like it.

    Have a great week!
