It’s Friday, High Five! No. 89

2021-04-02

This week is spring break but I have no big travel plans. My son is going to the beach with some friends for the week and my husband is running some crazy Last-Mile ultra-marathon, on which I will give a hard pass, so I’m hoping to have a little free time to myself this week. I have a dresser I need to refinish for my daughter, some painting to get done, and I will at least have short a vacation from momming, I know wild and crazy, my kind of spring break. How about you, anything fun in the works? Let me live vicariously…

And now back by popular demand, and by demand I mean my sister said “please bring back It’s Friday High Five,” it’s time for this week’s high five.

Something inside of me has always wanted to do a travel trailer renovation, the travel trailering not so much but the interiors, oh yah. So when I see the amazing work Aniko from Place of My Taste is doing on her 2017 Forest River Vibe travel trailer name Lola I am so jealous. I bet she is going to be somewhere fun for spring break.
This was a little April Fools video I saw yesterday that as a Dachshund owner I found hysterical. Australian police unveiled a new fighting force to enhance the protection of average citizens and neighborhoods alike: the Small Area Urban Searching And Guided Evacuation Dogs unit, or “SAUSAGE Dogs.”

When I painted my front door a while back my door knocker looked terrible, so tarnished and weathered I thought for sure I’d have to replace it. In the end, I ended up being able to salvage it with a little elbow grease but that didn’t mean I didn’t shop for possible replacements. During that shop, I ran across this bee-utiful Bumblebee Door Knocker that I might just one day buy because I want it, not because I need it.
My grandmother taught me to embroider when I was you but I was never quite sure where the modern teenage me was going to use that skill. When I run across artists like Kerakova Embroidery who embroider garments with bold flowers, turning ordinary hats and t-shirts into something spectacular I know that beautiful embroidery is hip at any age.
