Hello!

Why ello! I haven't fallen off the face of the earth I promise.

I am however, having a hard time balancing 2 jobs...2 kids..1 husband..1 blog.. 2 pets.. and 24 hours in one day! haha

But in all seriousness I think I'm starting to figure out a good schedule for myself. So hopefully after this weekend (My last shift as a part time server.. can I get a simultaneous yahoo and shed a tear?) I can whip out all the posts I have written that need pictures added.. answer some emails.. oh and breathe a little? That might help. ;)

Have I also mentioned I forgot to announce some winners from... gulp.. Weeks ago?! Yup I did. I'm going to announce them on Friday at Feature Yourself Friday. So, enough biz.. more fun. How about a little bit of my life via instagram? Yes..!

Sometimes I send pretty pictures to my husband in the middle of the day. I'd say I've perfected the come hither look if you ask me. 

 Puppies! Oh he was very snuggly.

 Comfortable...huh.

 Um! People, I'm a reformed nail biter! Check out how long these babies are.

 Friday nights at the Czuk house.

20.00 Change

Want to see how you can make a big ol' exciting change for cheap? Okay, truth be told it's not big nor is it exciting. But it is a change, and for less than the price of a night out at dinner or something equally as fun but more of a want and not a need. Which is what the Mr. keeps reminding me of during this spending freeze we're.still.in.

That got off topic fast.

Okay so the handles on the entertainment unit bugged me. Big time. I mean, to anyone visiting they might not really notice them but when you live with them every day and they're super contemporary and I'm more traditional meets vintage meets whatever sparks in my crazy mind, they weren't doin' it for me.

So home depot it was.

They're actually the same pulls that I used on the dresser because I love them so much. But that's how I spent 20.00 on a want and it made me smile a lot. It really is the little things.

I could have at least vacuumed for you huh? Oh well. This is life. Guess what else we've done to the family room? Painted! But I'll show you that later this week. Goodbye Cliveden Gray, I sure have loved you, but it's time for a change. 

How about you? Have you made any small changes to your place that weren't really necessary but made your heart happy?

Craft Colleen and Cohort {Giveaway}

Ya'll. I've tried to write this post a few times and Blogger keeps eating it. Let's all cross our fingers and make a wish that deleting the whole thing and starting over works. Bahh!

Okay so I've got something cute for you today friends! The lovely Colleen asked if she could give some of her goodies away and of course I jumped on it. A lot of her items could be something that little boys adore and I know I tend to have lots and lots of bows and girly giveaways so it's nice to have somethin' for the mamas of boys too. Even though some of her things have me saying

"Coooooool!" 

Because well.. It is and I like it. Especially the light switches.

What about birthday party treats? Awesome pencils? Pretty sure these would be a hit.

Little scrapbooks for birthdays or weddings? Love the detail put into them.

Cute cute cute.

Now want to know what you could win?

Sure!

Today Colleen is offering up a 25.00 shop credit. Woohoo!
