It's Hump Day!

Well after the past few days I really thought I'd wake up this morning and it'd be Friday! I 'm sure a few other know that feeling and to wake up to Hump Day(the mid week hump or the week whatever some refer to it as)
After all our excitment of lobster/clam boils, BBQ, birthday parites, boating, mommmies DRs appointment and labs (7 stitck to get 2 tubes of blood), lost beannie baby dobey dog in a toilet...opps! (Mom's silently cheering to herself, another bites the dust, and another one gone another one gone YEAH another one bites the dust!!!!! I mean pick one from the other 300 or so at home?) Forgot to mention Monday a 3 hours audit from the electric company to tell us that we need over $2500 of work for the attic to help our home cut back of usage.. They did change alot of light bulbs for me for no charge 12 of them....
What does one do when told they can't go home right now.. well look to find the mail carrier whose hiding somewhere...heehee Not sure yesterday can be topped then
Look what I find when I do find the mail carrier!
a prize gift from the Lace Race for cheering them on

Julia stalked my blog to find out I knit lots of socks so thought the sock yarn I'd find some use for.. whatcha think?? hmm well of course!! 2 sks of Regia 4ply!

check out the beautiful colors.. Thank you Julia!

teas!!! My SBS tea order arrived!! earl grey tea bags, my favorite the fruity russian caravan tea, twigs orange pekoe, kona coconut cream, french vanilla, chocolate raspberry mint, chocolate mint chocolate truffle mint cocoa, french vanilla cocoa, fine english breakfast, a couple 4 oz purple tins and they also included a free birthday candle....Great customer service easy ordering and fast delivery.

I'd definaitely order from SBS tea again.. I love them and all their program offers are great too! Theres so much to choose from, really I think theres someone for everyone there.
If you send me an email I can send you a discount code for $5 off a $40 order.. You could even order with a friend to reach $40 for the discount. Why not split it.....honestly it's so very easy to go over $40 it isn't funny!

Whatever you last added to your sidebar screwed it all up. The font is so freakin' tiny you simply can't read it.

The STR is pretty!

If STR is not happy at your house, know it can come play/live at mine. :)

Yum.

Oh, you did have a goooood mail day! What do you think of the new str pattern? Love the colorway, but might not tackle the pattern just yet. And the tea! I'm on my way over to click around in their website right now!

I'll have to ask: how does SBS tea compare to Yogi in terms of taste?

I have to consider international shipping :)
