Ready to Shop!

Wave Dinnerware


I just got an email from Pier One that I have rewards just waiting to use.  I'm so glad they followed up with an email because one came in the mail that was probably thrown out.  Recently we bought a few things from Pier One so I can fill out some of the items like my dishware.. Called Wave.
You can find it here
 
We also purchased new chairs for our dining room on sale now here:

If I don't buy something in my dinnerware.. I'll just look for sale items.  My daughter used to work at Pier One and told me I should get more dinnerware because sometimes the pattern is discontinued.. So best to get it now.

Winter

It's still winter here in Pennsylvania.  We had very cold weather a week or so ago when the artic vortex was moving through the area.  Then it warmed up to the 40's and 50's.. This morning it's 28 and it snowed during the night.. it will be cold next week But is Spring coming.. I just put my spring and summer clothes away.  Will it be time to get them out again soon?

Check out this North Face jacket at Macy's.  It's warm but lightweight enough to wear on a cool morning.  It's long but not too long.  I love the black and the Greystone Blue.



Find the jacket here.

In a month or so it will be time to wear some cute light shirts with jeans like this one from Macy's.  I'd be tempted to buy the grey one because I really like neutrals but my husband loves to see me in colors.

 
 
 
I also love this one.  I comes in 5 colors and you can find it here
 
 
Tonight we will be having Asian chicken legs with rice.. oh so good.  Like this one
 from Amy on U Try it
 
 

Have a great Friday!! Any plans for the weekend?

I haven't blogged in over a year.  Not because I didn't want to.. but because I just couldn't.  There was so much going on in my family and I couldn't write about it.  I still don't want to go into details.  If you know me in person you will know what I'm talking about.. and if you don't then just know it's been some very serious health problems.  My husband asked me not to put anything on Facebook so I haven't.. but he recently posted a thank you for all the birthday wishes so I can post what he said here.


"Thanks for all your birthday wishes everyone. 2013 was undoubtedly one of my biggest challenges. But with the great support of my loving and beautiful wife Martha, close friends here in Pittsburgh, and a premier team of doctors and researchers things are going well and I'm looking forward to many many more birthdays.
Again my thanks.
Pete"


My husband, Peter, at the Pittsburgh Zoo with Barney
(I think it's Barney and that's what my grandson called him.)

Things are definitely looking up for us.
