WEEK SIXTEEN  //  LIST YOUR FAVORITE BOOKS
 
 


This was a great one. List all your favorite books...I don't have many but these are the ones that I honestly can say have changed my outlook, or life, or just my direction.

I like to have them in my possession so I can go back to them whenever I need to refresh my thought on something.

Please go to Moorea Seal and get your lists.

Happy Listing

Weekend Recap



     
Friday:

- a "client" (my auntie) ordered some pillow cushions

- went shopping for the supplies and found a crochet hook ON SALE (Yay!!  Looks very antiqued but works like a charm.)

- caught up with my spanish soap operas

 ____________________________________________________________________________




Saturday:

- went bike riding with my babies (great weather & much needed exercise)

- got started on the 1st pillow cushion (love the way they are coming out & the easy, fun pattern I'm using for them)

- Must THANK Barbara Langer from  Made in K-town for the tutorial for this cushion & inspiration

- got started on the 2nd pillow cushion base; so I can whip it up & send it to my "customer"

______________________________________________________________




Sunday:

- watched some movies with my honey

- jotted down my thoughts in my journal (my mind was so crowded-I had to do some deleting)

- wrote out my THANKSGIVING to God, for all His mercy, Protection & LOVE, in my prayer journal



Had a wonderful weekend...Thank God!  Did a little of all my favorite things and got to spend time with the loves of my life.

Hope you guys had a great weekend!

WEEK FIFTEEN  //  LIST YOUR FAVORITE QUOTES
 
 
 
Oh boy...there are so many I have to actually think about them.
 
But this is another great one because we say these quotes all the time but do we really live by them or even act on them?
 
Please try these lists they are very helpful just to brainstorm and maybe even change something for good in your life.
 
For these lists go to: MOOREA SEAL
 
 
Happy Listing!
