Good Morning Monday!!










Happy Monday Everyone!!








I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!! OK...So, I'm a little excited! Yes, I know I get excited over the tiniest of things, but...it's not SO tiny that I've been blogging here for over a year. And while I was away in the hospital for some of that time, I still consider it a sort of Blog-a-versary!



I've been trying to get caught up with all of my friend's blogs and I got to finally *see* what some of you look like thanks to TRISH. She was at the book festival and I'm SO jealous! Because she took such wonderful videos, I felt like I was there (in part anyway)!



Back to the "Happy Blog-A-Versary" to me ... I have decided to give away one of the beautiful bracelets that you see below made by the very talented *Lizzy Bleu* over at her etsy shop! I just need to think of the WHAT we should do? *to determine the winner* and the HOW long we should make it last? I've been thinking and thinking but...I'm up for any ideas that you may have .... SO, if you've got any, feel free to email me @IAmHiMaintenance at Aol dot Com! I'd LOVE to hear from you! : )



Oh...and Mother's Day is coming up this Sunday and I still haven't gotten mom anything yet...So, for the time being, I'm off to do one of the things that I do best *and that is SHOP*! Hope to hear from you soon and I'll be posting the contest THIS WEEK! I think the winner should have some type of choice though...like either their name on the bracelet or just a mix of keys OR Lizzy does make different pieces such as necklaces and earrings as well. So...if there is something the winner likes better (I'm easy) and it's very possible that you can get a different item other than the bracelet! I LOVE a give-a-way! Especially when I get to pick ... *not as much as when I win*. But, you get the picture!



Oh, and the link to Lizzy Bleu's Shop again can be found .... right ... here ... lizzybleu on Etsy - lizzybleu typewriter jewelry!



We had beautiful weather here in Rhode Island last week! But, the beginning of this week doesn't look like it's going to be as nice *not at all* ... Actually, it looks like rain. Oh how I do love that smell right after it rains on a warm spring day! Maybe I'll have that to at least look forward too! If not, it's the PERFECT weather to snuggle up and READ! (with a nice cup of tea...ooooh or chai...yummy)!



Well...enough day-dreaming, I'm off to shop! Well, online ... it IS extremely LATE or EARLY (depending on how you look at it) here on the East Coast!



Till Then...

Etsy Shop of Interest *LIZZY BLEU*


While I was ill, there was one author in particular that always checked in on me and sent me some really sweet things to make me smile, cards and called as well. As I started to get better, I really wanted to send her something back for her genuine interest in my well being.


I wanted something that was definitely from *ME*, but would be appropriate for an author! I found the cutest store on Etsy that sells bracelets and other jewelry made from vintage typewriter keys and they are absolutely adorable! The artist's name is Lizzy and she is amazingly talented! I just wanted to share her store with you just in case you might want one of these cute little bracelets (or other items) for yourself.


I do have a few other ideas, but I'm thinking of giving one away for my blog-a-versary. I'm such a shop-a-holic! I already got one for myself as well! LOL Maybe I should post a picture of mine here. I LOVE it!


OK...some other information you might need...


How about the name of her Etsy Shop? It's Lizzy Bleu and here's the link to one of the examples! Very cute!




She also accepts CUSTOM ORDERS as well!! I'm sure I can go on and on... It would probably be best if you just go and check it out for yourself! Although, I MUST say that the packaging is beautiful as well and she is a VERY wonderful person to work with!


So, this is my little way of thanking her!! THANK YOU LIZZY!!


I hope you all enjoy her work! This one is the one she made for me....

Here's another one that she has had in her shop in the past and I thought some of you might find it just as cute as I did!
