Small Things

You may have noticed the "Company Girl" logo that has been decorating my sidebar for a few weeks.  I have been remiss to not explain....Rachel Ann has a very fun blog that is uniting women to make their homes sanctuaries.  She gives a "small thing" challenge for each day and awards points for completing the tasks.  At the end of the month, she gives away two great prizes.  One to the person who has earned the most points, and one randomly drawn from everyone who has completed at least 5 tasks that month.  It is a lot of fun.  Click on the logo on my sidebar to learn more....and become a Company Girl!!!



One of our tasks last week was to create a centerpiece from things we love around our house....and we get extra points for posting a picture.  I already have a small Korean lamp that Patrick bought and a small plant on my kitchen table.  There isn't really room for much more there, so I added a few things to this display above our bookshelf.

Our "small thing" today was to be able to laugh at ourselves, and to share a silly story about ourselves with the rest of the Company Girls.  I thought I would post mine below for some Friday fun....

I actually noticed that on your sidebar yesterday and checked out her blog. I really enjoyed it and her mission. I liked your laugh at yourself story too - sounds like something I would do!

Great Job! I haven't been able to keep up with Home Sanctuary this month...maybe next month!

what a great idea. I had looked at the link a while back, but I didn't quite understand it all. I'll have to check it out again in more detail. I love your story. We've backed over bikes that were left in back of the car, and I once did a similar thing to a Longaberger picnic basket -- what a tragedy that was!
