Rise and Shine is my way of sitting down and having a cup of coffee with you! We talk about the new deals of the day, highlights from yesterday, and anything else that might help us save time, money or energy. Published Monday through Friday – as I’m able.
Good morning! How are you this morning? How has your weekend been so far? We are honoring Memorial Day this weekend – so grateful for all of our military service personnel and their families. We have so many of you in the Queen Bee Community and I’m so grateful for you. Hugs to you if you’re missing a military family member this weekend and/or mourning someone who has given the ultimate sacrifice for our country through service.
This weekend has been a busy one for us. We started sorting everything in the house into piles so that we can either move, donate/sell or toss items to get the house empty! We started going through boxes in the attic that I’ve had since leaving for college in 1998 – I hadn’t gone through them in probably that long. Lots and lots of letters (snail mail, remember the good ole days?!) and photos. Definitely a blast from the past. There are PILES everywhere but I’m hoping by the end of the week everything will be in it’s place!
Anyone remember Shirt Tales? A Hallmark card-inspired cartoon from early 1980s? My mom made this Pammy Panda Halloween costume for me when I little. I pulled it out of the attic yesterday and it fits my daughter perfectly! 😉 Costume is probably 30 years old. Lots of flashbacks like this as I go through boxes with childhood memories tucked inside. I’m not downsizing a lot of this (too sentimental!) – just organizing it a bit better so I can find things easier in the future.
Thank you to everyone who shared your tips and ideas for how to save on clothing for 18-inch dolls!
