Pay it Forward...

Pay It Forward
Here's how it works. The first 3 people to leave a comment on this post will receive a handmade gift or treat from me. What it will be and when it will arrive is a total surprise. The catch is that you must participate as well. Before you leave your comment, write up a pay it forward post on your blog to keep the fun going. Then come back, let me know you're going to play and sit back and anticipate the arrival of your gift! Yeah, for homemade things and surprise packages!

This is a great idea, Jess!!

I'm moving on up...to the eastside...

As of Friday, I'll officially be moving! I will be picking up my keys to my new little bungalow in Hampton Heights (Spartanburg's only Historic District). It's a cute little place; I'll be posting before and afters. It's within in walking distance to EVERYTHING! The girls' new school, www.spartanburgcharterschool.org, church, the library, downtown, etc.

I really think that we are going to love it. We are MASSIVELY downsizing-like halving our living space. BUT, we have a nice fenced in backyard, and a full basement for storage. This is just the push I need to really simplify our belongings. When I get all of our stuff that we are taking with us out, I am going to have an openhouse in the old house to get rid of everything else. I honestly don't even want any money for it-I just want it gone!

So, goodbye country living, I love you but you are just way too expensive and wasteful!!
