Tuesday's Treasure

Today's treasure is my family.  Kiddo is always making me laugh with his exploration of the world, which is currently focused on new vocalizations (he's talking to hubby as I type) and his feet.  And my wonderful husband is my strength, who gives me the courage to face the world even when I'd rather not, and takes care of me when I get overwhelmed.  Both of them make me a better person than I could possibly be otherwise.  What's your treasure this week?

It's still Tuesday, so I'll work on getting back into the swing of things by another Tuesday's Treasure.  This week I chose a lovely little gift from my mother-in-law, three sachets.  What's your treasure this week?

Today's treasure is a back tattoo concept that my husband has been working on for quite some time now.  I think this is the finished product, although I'm hoping he'll pick less startling colors for when he finally gets it inked.  This is a treasure to me because I love when he gets artsy; he creates such beautiful and imaginative pieces that always make me smile.  What is your treasure today?

Tuesday's Treasure & Things I Love Thursday

So, seeing as how my pregnant brain is refusing to function anywhere close to normal parameters, this weeks Treasure and Things I Love will be rolled into one.  This time it's Quentin, our most obnoxious of kitties.  He is the middle child, and feels the need to be sassy and rude most all the time.  Pictures of him are usually terribly blurry, as in the previous post, as he rarely sits still long enough to get a decent shot.  Luckily, he is currently in "cute" mode, where he rolls on his back and smiles.  So please enjoy this rare moment of quiet kitty with me.

Don't let the cuteness fool you...

There's an evil streak in there...

And if you think he's cute sleeping alone...

He's more than cute snoozing with Asuka.

And another Tuesday is here, reminding me that it's time to pick out a new treasure.  This week it's a lovely glass vase that I found at Goodwill over the weekend.  What struck me about it is the fact that it's off-kilter and not at all squared as it probably should be.  

And it's actually come in handy, currently being used to hold the massive amounts of pennies that we've accumulated...

Tuesday's Treasure

Posted on Weds, due to uploading problems yesterday...  but here it is!

This week I picked a beautiful Venetian mask that hangs in my hall, courtesy of my beloved husband.  He bought it for me several years ago while on his first deployment.  While it will always remain rather creepy, it is still a treasured piece, reminding me that we've made it through military life and what would have destroyed other marriages.  This is a badge of love and commitment.

Today's treasure is a set of amber glass bracelets, a Christmas gift from my mother-in-law. They're delicate, yet when worn all together, make a bold statement, which I love. The color suits me (and my wardrobe) perfectly, and I throw them on to dress up any outfit. What is your favorite "throw-on" dress up item?
