Looking Back
Hello! What do you think of my new blog styling? I was ready for a change from the harsher pink and wanted to go into something softer. I’m loving the new look! If you read this blog through a service like Feedly or through RSS you may need to update your bookmarks or feed, as I’m also with a new host company. Now, on to the new goodies! A new month means a new Buffet and I just loved these soft colours. Remember that everything is half off through the 5th!
Memories are such wonderful things. They allow you to go back in time and relive all the best moments of your life. So take a look back and have a chuckle or a laugh, or even a tear or two… all of those memories have made us who we are today, so they are to be treasured.
Cheers!

We were having a very mild winter in the Pacific Northwest until February kicked in. Then the snow came, and schools shut down and chaos reigned. Now, I know if you live anywhere east of the west coast you’re probably snickering at that statement… “I’ll show you snow!” Here on the coast though, we’re not as accustomed to it. The worst is the ice though. Our days are often above freezing so the snow starts to melt, but then it freezes again overnight leaving a sheet of ice. I actually got into a minor fender-bender the other day because of it. We have a big hill out in front of our workplace. There were a line of cars waiting to get into the parking lot (it’s gated so it takes a moment for each car to scan their passcard). I ended up having to stop midway up the hill. I started sliding backward down the hill. I had very little control but I managed to steer myself toward the curb. The car ahead of me started sliding but she wasn’t as lucky, and her car spun as she slid backward and ended up sliding right into me. The cars ahead all started sliding too. I just put my car in reverse and drove down the street that way until I was able to turn around and find parking on the street. There was a little old man there, a local resident, who was assisting people. He helped me get myself parked and even shoveled a little pathway through the snow so I could get onto the sidewalk. Very sweet! All in all though, not such a great way to start my night shift. I’m not a winter person!
On another note, I’ve also re-released my Looking Back collection. I was actually for OBG (Oldies But Goodies) this week. I apologize that I didn’t get a chance to post about it during the event, however bundles are always 20% off!
