Unicorn wishes.

 I didn't draw this one in my regular sketch book but I thought I would share it anyway. After I took the picture of it I edited it a little bit on my phone.

Go ahead and dare to dream big today and be sure to sparkle all day long.

Miscellaneous stuff

 I'm just going to throw a whole bunch of non related stuff into one post today.

First a cake I recently did at work

After I blogged about the towel bar that I had my son put in for me some of you asked what it looked like. It's a no frills towel bar. Some of them were pretty expensive but I chose one on the low end. I mean it only needs to hold a towel.

Back when I sent out the September happy mail card, I also sent out a card to Presley. It was a happy back to school card.

Last but not least is a few of the latest work doodles.

Something I've been wanting.

 Last month I ordered something that I've been wanting for a while. It wasn't very expensive which helped in my decision to buy it.

All my handmade cards have had a sticker on the back that say handmade by Ann. I decided that I wanted a custom made stamp that I could use on the back of them. I got to use this finally on the September happy mail that I sent out.

And here is what it stamps on the cards.

The next day

 The day after Labor Day I had off. It was nice to have two days in a row off from work. As much as I enjoyed that I was having a rough day. Lots of little things have been going wrong and it was getting me down. Even Gibbs was on my last nerve. 

I finally was at the end of my ropes, put Gibbs in his side of the basement and went outside to play in the dirt. I planted the mums that I got the day before.

It's not too easy to see where they are here

I planted two in the center.

And the third one on the end. I'm not very good at arranging flower beds. What was already there was placed by the guys who mow my lawn. A couple years ago I had asked if they could make the front look a little better.

After I got done planting these I went through and weeded this area and the area on the other side of the front porch where the hydrangea are. I must say I was feeling a bit better by the time I was done.

The other thing I did was run to Giant Eagle which is a local grocery chain. They are a bit expensive but tend to have really good deals. Someone had posted that they had burger on sale for $2.99 a pound. I haven't seen it that price in a long time. I grabbed a couple packs to put in the freezer.
