HEADLINE NEWS: Thrifty Cottage Dreams Abducted by Facebook for 2 Weeks

Ok, I'm sorry to leave my peeps hangin' and to all of you who have given up on me, COME BACK! (please, pretty please). I promise from this day forward I will keep up with my blogging and spend MUCH less time on Facebook. (And to make myself feel better I will add that I KNOW I'm not the only one who has been addicted to it...oh and I DID delete my Myspace account, so at least I won't be on there anymore.) I also KNEW that I wouldn't be able to keep my 1,353,583 New Year's resolutions, just for some reason...knew it. ALSO I will add that I am a procratinating perfectionist to the umteenth degree and I am PROMISING myself to do better this year. I have MANY pics and stories that I had to share with you and have never gotten them on here b/c of my need for perfectionism. I will put something off until it's LONG overdue just because I'm scared of it not looking or sounding perfect for my peeps (YOU). So, with all of this said, I will from this day forward (but not EVERY day I'm sure) keep on blogging and not worry about pictures not being perfect, words not sounding right, OR GRAMMAR. I hope you don't mind. And thanks for being my sounding board/therapist. I feel SO much better getting this off of my chest and onto my blog ;o) Here's to throwing caution to the wind...

Oh and since it IS winter and this IS my last week of having our BOOTH open (whaaaa), I will be more focused on couponing and store bargains...my new addiction....and less on making over furniture and yard sale/thrifting bargains. I just don't have anywhere else to put anything. Don't worry, though...I still have pics from months ago of furniture re-do's to post. And keep in mind that when yard sale season starts all that I've just said will probably go out the window because I can't help but take advantage of a good bargain!

Thanks for the support!

P.S. Just noticed that I'm over 10,500 views...thanks Mom! XO
