Uh-Oh Its going to Rain...Again

I'd have some beautiful photos for you if not for all this rain. I was planning on trying to draw fall leaves and have Bacon Bits color outside today, but that's not going to happen.

Unfortunately, it looks like another trip into Ironwood. I have to drop off a FedEx envelope and no such location near home. I'm worried about the Freshman float (and every class' for that matter); anything cardboard may get soaked and droop into a mushy pile. Mike and I are headed over to the float site right after school for finishing touches. The floats are to be lined up by 5:00. I'll post pics (rainy or not) tomorrow. Mike has been float building every night 'til at least 9:30. One more day and then homecoming tomorrow. Yay!

Here's a handy idea for being "environment conscientious": I've been on a cloth napkin kick (vintage of course). It's an easy way to reduce paper waste at home. Just throw dirty cloth napkins in with your towel wash. People will think you're fancy pants all year long- or maybe think you're a hippie. Either way is okay by me.

I Think the Rain's Killing my Mums!

Its still raining and my mums look droopy and sad. I don't know if too much rain can kill them, but they don't look happy.

It looks like we'll be spending another day inside. Yesterday, we went to Vinnies and I purchased some old records. I've been making record bowls (definitely not a new, fresh idea) and putting them in gift boxes made out of the old record album covers and using the paper sleeve as tissue inside the gift box (this may be a fresh idea). I made a few and plan on making more. Give me your feedback below, and I may choose someone to receive one from me for free. The rest of y'all can view more pics via my etsy art link located to the left.

Its off to float building for Mike again tonight; Stinky and I may have to stop by and lend a hand. We'll post finished pics of the float later.
