February Lust List

 
My February lust list!!!


I do currently have a rice cooker.  My opinion is that it's not so good.  Handy Hubby doesn't mind it.  But I feel that we have bad rice from it more often than we have good rice.  This one has separate settings for both brown rice and white rice.  You can cook oatmeal in it overnight (as well as any other grain), and it plays a cute little song when the rice is ready.  How can you not love that!!

I live in a house with two girls.  Oldest Daughter is six years old and obsessed with fairies and princesses.  This terrarium, with its' little fairies dancing among the flora, would make her head explode!

I love purses.  And I love purses that come in colours that are appropriate for whatever season we are in.  As our household relies on just one income, my expensive tastes in purses is relegated to just window shopping.  Sigh!

Ok, I know that I have blogged about this very recently.  This should probably be on my March Lust List, but as it is out March 7th for purchase, I will own it before I send out my March Lust List.  So, it makes it here. 

I love forcing any type of bulb.  But my problem has always been that I just did not have the right type of vase to do it with.  Until I came across these beauties.  Stylish as well as practical.  And for just the right price.

I love sweaters.  I just happen to live in a state that doesn't really ever have the need for a sweater.  In other states, sweaters can be handy for winter and for spring.  This sweater says spring to me.

Boo-Boos

When I was pregnant, never having been a mother before, I had expectations of what it would be like when my little one arrived.  These expectations were fed mostly by the media.  Commercials depicting pretty babies cooing at their mothers, giggling toddlers toddling about, cuteness when baby covers themselves in pureed food - you know, the normal happy scenes we should all expect as parents.  What I failed to notice were the fuzzy edges, the dead give-away that these social driven episodes were in no way rooted in reality. Don't get me wrong.  I, now a mother of two, have had plenty of pretty moments.  Every time I receive a hug or kiss from one of my girls, pride when Youngest Daughter tells anyone within hearing distance that she is mommy's little duckie, excitement from Oldest Daughter when I teach in her classroom, when either of the girls tell me they love me.  All precious moments that continue to ma...

A Week in Review

Image
The last few weeks have been busy.  Living in the car, commuting from one appointment to the next were my reality on some days.  Blogging, getting together with friends or just having relaxing down-time just could not be found on my agenda.  Oldest Daughter was on Fall Break all of last week.  Does it make me a terrible mom by admitting that I did originally dread her being home all day?  I thought I would have to devise activities to keep her busy, plan play dates or day trips to make the time pass faster.  But to my surprise, that wasn't the case!  I very much enjoyed her week at home.  We did have play dates, we did make some short trips, we did do art activities, but because we wanted to - not because I needed to fill up the days.  My girls and I - we had fun!  I would like to share with you some of the highlights from the past week.  I was fortunate to spend one of my eve...

Control

Guess who's back?  Wait - what? No. Guess again.  Yep, that's right.  Me!!  I have missed doing this blog post and communicating with y'all.  I have missed purposely tapping into this messed up brain of mine weekly.  I have missed sharing my innermost thoughts with you and receiving your feedback (even if your feedback is that my innermost thoughts are totally messed up).  I have heard from so many people over the past few months that they miss my ramblings and wish I would just get back to it already.  So, to feed a small part of my creative soul, I am resuming this blog.  Enjoy! _________________________________________________________________ Hello, my name is Twila and I have control issues. I may not attend a 12-step program, but my daily struggles with needing to control all things around me are oh-so-real.  To complete the package of me, I am also s tubborn, strong-willed,...
