A Vintage Picnic basket....

On Tuesday I packed a picnic basket for a couple of my fellow teachers. I made some sandwiches then wrapped them up in butcher paper and tied them with twine. I also had some Salt and Vinegar chips and some Ice cold Pop. I told you I love picnics! They said I have too much time on my hands and the funny thing is I really don't! Do you ever wonder how other Women do it? I mean really, between a full time job, a child, a house to run and yourself to take care of..... are you as tired as me at night? I have friends that have 4 children! How on Earth? Last night I hit the pillow so hard at the earliest hour I think I have in I cant remember when.... 8:30. I rested with my daughter at her bedtime and she went out pretty quick . I could not get out of her bed, so I said heck with it! and I fell asleep. I wish I could get the secret on how everyone manages. I guess we all have our ways. I am learning that we cant get it all done and to just let things go. So hard for me...... one of my friends asked me if "Me" time was on Sundays and I said yes.... but "Me" time isn't really about me.... it means being alone as I run errands. Oh well ! It still is the best job on Earth! I had to share this Vintage goodie with you:  It is a vintage hanger...... it is pink and it spins! I have so many plans for this cool thing! I might have to get another one... to make a baby mobile.  right now it is holding vintage hankies..... and birdies. Well that's all for now......... Friday tomorrow!

Yes Lilia!
I do wonder how you and evryone else goes thru your days so smoothly getting sooo much done! When we moved home states I was worried how I would get it all done...including walking to get moving boxes that I would later fill. I did everything (luckily no painting was needed! I think I need an exciting goal AND organization that EVERYONE better adhere to.
I am so glad that you shared your trials AND your successes! There is hope!
Hugs,
Mary
