locket love
my eldest daughter starts school next year : sigh :
I can't imagine not spending all day every day with her.
to commemorate this momentous occasion I thought a piece of jewelry would be a nice idea
(any excuse : right?!)
& even better a piece of jewelry with her photograph in.
clear glass locket
you & me locket
with a gorgeous Susannah Tucker image on the front
2 sided photo locket
a few more things I love to add to my wish list!

Flashback/Black Friday
Is it conceded of me that I think I was a pretty cute baby??
I also love the lighting this photo has! Momma did a good job :)
Happy Black Friday! This was the third year I participated in the craziness. I was up and out at 5:30am shopping around! I have a lot to shop for so it's not easy! But it was a lot of fun, as always. We went to Kohls, Children's Place, AE, JCPenneys, Toys R Us, and Target! I got a lot of very good deals! The lines weren't as bad as previous years and most people were in good spirits! One store was having 30% off everything, and someone had a extra 15% off coupon- after using it they gave it to the next person in line. And it kept going down the line and a lot people ended up getting 45% off their entire purchase! How nice is that?! The cashiers were laughing and the customers were all pleasantly surprised when they got to check-out. I love Black Friday!
Hope everyone was able to snag a good deal or two! If not, then hopefully you are fully relaxing in a turkey-coma on the couch! I'm getting ready to pull out the Christmas decorations...!!

This week I'm grateful for... jobs
I went to a mine in the middle of bloody nowhere this week. We took a 2 hour 'mudhopper' flight out of Townsville into central Far North Queensland. Three and a half driving hours north west of Mount Isa. Yes, as middle-of-bloody-nowhere as that! It was rather romantic to experience somewhere that remote and special to meet some of the people who fly in to work out that way. But it was truly sobering to put a 'face' to the seemingly endless number of mine disasters that are happening in our world these days.
This week I'm grateful for...
1. My job - I have it, it interests me, it takes me on adventures a surprising number of times for a basic office worker!
2. LOML's job - because he's not going down into a mine every day.
3. Milk - as one miner put it "you can't afford to be lactose-intolerbullshit' around here. You need to drink your milk or you don't stay healthy.
So, what's making you smile today? Grab my Grateful button from my sidebar if you like (see, over there... I've got a buttton!!), link back your own Grateful post below and then pop over to visit other bloggers who are spreading a little sunshine. No hurry - we're all about laaaaazy Saturdays. Link is open all week. Happy day to you!
