Yesterday was
ONE OF THOSE DAYS.
You know the one.
The one where you have
a kagillion things to
get done and
somehow end up
getting nothing done.
Yeah...
that kind of day.
The kind that leaves
you feeling kinda
suck-o.
Yes-that's a real word.
It is in my
Nana Diana Dictionary.
So, I was most happy
when MyHero came
in from the mailbox
toting a box with
a wonderful surprise inside.
A few weeks ago I won
a giveaway from
Kristin over at
Here they are-
3 of the cutest frames
you will ever see.
#1

#3
Here they are with
a different light source..
Pretty sweet, huh?
The giveaway was sponsored by
They are darling and I love
them.
Thank you Kristen & Jennifer.
I would also be remiss if
I didn't share what my friend
Mary @ Hope Filled Living
sent me a couple of weeks ago.
She is just a sweet, sweet person.
Here is what widened my eyes
when I opened her
sweet package.
The tag is just adorable..
as is the necklace.
And some seeds to plant
to remind me of her
all season long.
Thanks so much, Mary.
Now....if you are very good
and promise not to spit
in the cat's dish,
tomorrow I will share
the staging I have been
doing in our friend's house
in Door County....
working with some
very meager furnishings
and accessories.
Here is a sneak peek...
What?
Sneak Peek?
What did you THINK you
were going to see...
My Hero in his
birthday suit?
Oh- Wait!
That was his
LEISURE SUIT...
Uh-huh
THOSE were the days, huh?;>)

The leisure suit looks like it should belong to Ken.... you know.... Barbie's Ken! I think your hero would look much better in something else!
I know those days, too, Diana! It sounds like your little presents cheered you up. Those days are usually the ones where you want to find a good movie and just get engrossed in it. On one of those days for me, I got hooked on The Tudors on BBCAmerica. And it happened to be a marathon Sunday so I sat and watched it all day.
The frames are very nice! My hubby had a pale blue leisure suit!!!
I am laughing so hard, I am crying at the leisure suit. That is classic.
I just love goodies from blogging friends. You did very well. Have a productive Thursday (but only if you want to). Hugs.
Diana, Yikes, that suit !! I actually made one for my husband when I was the sewing queen. Along with western styled shirts with those snap buttons:):) My gosh, I have not thought of that for years. Can't wait to see all the decorating you have done.Nice gifts !! I like visiting Jennifer's site. Take care, Smiles ,xo, Susie
Dina I love you gifts, it is so fun when a package arrives! Adore the last two frames in grey!!
Hey that leisure suit was pretty conservative compared to some my 1st husband had!!
....I wanted you to know...I am featuring Anita Rivera, Friend, Designer and Paper Artist with Castles Crowns & Cottages, & her Giveaway on my site!

I really love those frames you won! It's even better that they are handmade. I wish I would have a good mail day like that today!
Gorgeous gifts. Well done on your win.
Lol, I love the suit, such memories! Congrats, you got great gifts and you deserve it pretty lady! I haven't had a "good mail day" this year, last year I received 4!! Thanks for your lovely and kind visit my friend, I just love it when you do, makes my day! Lots of hugs,
FABBY
Haha!!! Those frames are darling!!!! Have a wonderful day :)
Glad your day was brightened. I hate those sucky days. We all have too many of them.
Geez Louise, do you ever get the coolest stuff! Love the frames and the necklace is so pretty. Staging? You? I thought you didn't get anything done...hmmmm.
Those leisure suits were nasty, weren't they? A total polyester nasty. Shivers just ran down my spine. ARG!
So, whatja doing today??? We are at a stand still. Gives me computer time and walk time.
lol that suit is so ugly it just makes me laugh! Pretty frames you got, lucky you!
Congratulations on those wonderful mail deliveries!
Also, anxious to see what you will have for us tomorrow!
Oh Diana, your posts always make me smile so!... hee hee hee, I remember men in those leisure suits... they were quite the style back then!...love all of your pretty giveaway wins... and I would also LOVE a copy of the Nana Diana dictionary... can you bill me please???... I am sure it is worth every penny of that 38 grand!... xoxo Julie Marie
My day would certainly be brightened if I found those great things in my mail! I really hope the leisure suit doesn't make a comeback! ~ Maureen
Oh, such cute frames!
What a great surprise for you.
Nice suit....NOT!!!
I'm home.....
xxoo
There's nothing like getting "good" mail. :) I love those frames, and the necklace is so cool.
Leisure suits. My mom made them for my brothers, in tiny little boy sizes.
Wow...you are one lucky girl! And i think i own a dictionary similar to yours:) Cute post!
XOXOX
Hmmm, you're right, they are the cutest frames I've ever seen. Enjoy them!

You are a winner and a sweetie. I remember those iesuire suits - now the youngsters just wear pajamas. I can't stand to wear PJs all day in the house but my daughter does that. What a change in generations! I think I need your dictionary.
what beautiful gifts, I think I need one of those dictionaries,
Hi Diana: What a gorgeous give away. Those are beautiful little frames. Once again I am rolling in the aisles, I was going to give you one of my awards, but you have too many followers! Know in you head, that you have it...Happy Thursday..Judy
Hurray on your wins!! I love when that postman comes, ours, not yours! ;-D
I had the same sort of day yesterday. I just didn't have the same get up and go. I thought today would be better, I just have to get moving! Have a good one!!
XO,
Jane
lucky you! you got presents in the mail!!! how fun.
oh that suit...actually, it brings back good memories!!
Those picture frames are so sweet, and oh yes, I remember the leisure suits. Thank goodness no one wears them anymore!
such adorable frames--happy mail is the best!
Lovely gifts you received Diana. It is so much fun getting packages in the mail isn't it? Hope you are having a great day. Maybe your hero can put on his leisure suit and you two could go out dancing.
xo,
Danielle
Yes, those were the days, my friend! Hey, that's the beginning of that silly song!
Great gifts for a wonderful lady!
Blessings my friend!
Donna
Diana
The suit is nice-I'm just wondering if he could dance as well as the Four Tops did in theirs
I always chuckle when they show that old footage.
Your gifts are sure sweet. You're pretty good at winning drawings. What's your secret?
Let me know when your dictionary is in print-I need to increase my vocabulary!
It is so exciting to go to the mailbox and see a package from a blog friend. The same thing happened to me two days ago.
You received some lovely gifts.
Oh, you are so lucky! Those frames are so pretty! What a nice gift!
What wonderful gifts you have received! Lucky you! I have a feeling those frames will be filled with wonderful pictures of your beautiful grandchildren. Hope you are having a great day.
You lucky duck. You keep getting cool packages. All that was in my mail box today was a genie bra that I ordered off of QVC during a sleepless night! Ha.
haha..the leisure suite Diana!
Boy you hit the jackpot on the wins there!
And do I ever, ever understand those kind of days!
And then you said Door County!!! Oh I need to go again!
Hugs,
Cindy
I think you are very loved, Diana, all over the place!! And, yes, I will take one of your dictionarys. I like the word "sucko". It's a word...now. =0)

Too funny girl! Spit in the cat's dish now that's one that I have never heard. Thought I had heard them all. Do you think the leisure suits will ever come back in style? lol!! Did I read Door County? Hubs and I visited there a year and a half ago. Loved, loved it! Wish I had a cottage on the Lake! We stayed in Fish Creek, but visited all of the surrounding towns.
Hugs,
Jann
Spit in the cat's dish? Never heard of that one!!
Congrats on your win...the frames are so cute!
