What in the world am I supposed to do all alone?
This happens like once or twice a year for me.
And I'm stumped when it does.
I could clean house.
Eat myself into a food coma.
Create.
Organize.
Take a 45 minute shower.
Exercise. (that's just silly talk.)
Be a sloth. (sounds more appealing.)
Dance.
Pick my nose. (What?! No one's around to see!)
Watch tv. (Yes, we finally got tv this week!! WOOOHOOO! No more Amish days for me.)
Crank up my music.
Soak in the silence.
Catch up on emails.
Catch up on photo editing.
Blog.
Share my new designs with you.
Runner Girl Marathon necklace

Official Photographer necklace

Photographer keychain

Sweetly Your's necklace (how precious is this bow?! It's exclusive to The Rusted Chain!!)

Bound Together necklace (I'm in love. I'm swooning over this!)

Cranberry Spray earrings

Swirled Monogram necklace (Also exclusive to The Rusted Chain! Love. Love. Love.)

So, I'm alone.
Guess what I decided to do? Blog and give away some free jewelry, of course!
Wanna play?

«Oldest ‹Older 1 – 200 of 246 Newer› Newest»I went to a crafty market today and don't really have any plans for tomorrow, I'll just relax, clean up a little and maybe visit 1 or 2 shops.
Have a nice weekend!
I'd probably get the Live Out Loud necklace, because I love the message and the colors.
WEEKEND PLANS!? Why, preparing for the BARN SALE, of course! And yes, enjoying the gracious God-given coolness in the air! Blessings to your weekend! Was that a HALF marathon necklace if it's a 13.1...right!? Two weeks til our turn! YIPPEE! I'd love that necklace for a memory...but NO TIME RECORDED! She had it right! BAHAHA!----Trenna

Well, today was a slow day. I didn't sleep last night so slept this morning. Gonna do a little knitting this afternoon.The hubs is out today so I too am all alone.
I have no idea what tomorrow will bring. SOmething together I hope. Maybe groccery shopping sometime.
Exciting time. I know.
I'd have to have a 'faith gives me hope' necklace or a 'capture life' necklace. The two things I want sooo bad, although now with the new designs the bow is awful sweet!
My weekend plans are to get an early jump on Halloween and decorate, and make a big pot of homemade vegetable beef soup to munch on while watching football on Sunday afternoon :)
Weekend plans -- went and bought a bedframe for daughter, should be cleaning now, grocery shopping, church and CROP walk tomorrow, then prepare for classes for the week. That's about it. I have to say, too, that I read once how when women get time alone, it takes like half a day for them to get used to it enough to actually do anything productive. It's so unusual that we can't quite get our mind wrapped around it! So, just sit for now. Nothing productive required :)
I FBed!

Weekend plans: family time. Baby #2 is due in 10 days, so we are soaking up our one-on-one time with our Kensie Love. Kids museum, farmers market, and time with both grandparents are all included. =)
I would buy the "I love you more" necklace - I've had my eye on it for a while!
We had soccer this morning for Kiddo. Veggie Tales Live! The Top 10 Silly Songs Show at 2:30p and just got home from dinner. Hubby is headed to the RUSH concert with his nephew as an early birthday present. Kiddo is watching TV. I'm gonna work on the PTO newsletter due Monday. *whew*
Tomorrow is church, then I've got some sewing to do and finish PTO newsletter (if not already done).
Today we slept in after an emergent ambulance ride to the ER for my 3 yr old. He was not breathing well and scared the crap out of me. Quiet day. I went and got my nails done and wandered around Walmart alone(not sure what to do without the little ones).
Tomorrow, we are going to a birthday party for this wonderful little girl in Max's class. Her mom came and got Max in the middle of the night so he did not have to go on our hospital adventure.
I would get the live out loud or the I have enough necklaces. I have to remind myself of those things frequently. What a beautiful way to do that.
Hubby's 10 year high school reunion and fun family time..oh and of course the Colts game!
Have fun alone...the possibilities are endless!
;) Rachel
I went to a Tastefully Simple Party today and tomorrow I am going to relax on my deck with a good book, cup of coffee. Nothing special but still the best.
Love & Hugs,

We are doing a whole lot of nothing this weekend, which is fine by me. My husband and I leave on Tuesday for our first long trip without our boys, so we are soaking in some quality family time!
I just got home from shooting a wedding :) Lots of fun, great couple and wedding party and a huge tour bus for the day..

Relaxing, this is my last weekend of 12 weeks of maternity leave; back to work on Monday :(

I had some sweet friends throw me a girly baby shower for our little Sprig due in 4 weeks! Ate myself a piece of cake with homemade buttercream. Mmmhmmm. Today we're going to participate in a media church service and relax!
I love the new swirly monogram! I think it might make it in my car if I won. But, also need to order my nieces necklaces for their Christmas...hmm...
I went to a ferret show yesterday with my two ferrets. We came home with two seventh place ribbons, a third place, a fifth place and a tenth places. Woot woot!
Our weekend plans are the same as always while hubby is in school full time, relaxing with the kids!
I'd spend my $$ on the camera necklace OR the pumpkin necklace I did not win the last giveaway! :)
2nd entry - I would either use the gc towards the swirly monogram or the bow necklace. Both are super cute!
1st entry - We had a date night to celebrate my husband's birthday last night and plan to have a picnic lunch after church today.
when i should of been cleaning the house....i went shopping at target, then to the pumpkin patch, made bierocks, fixed the drain on the kitchen sink, and today i am going to watch the chiefs go 3 & 0! (hopefully)

Uploading photos to my new photoshop elements 9 program and organizing them.
It's Sunday, and just read the blog.
On Saturday, I went to my grandson's soccer game, visited my ailing father, and watched college football. On Sunday, I am going to church, and again going to visit my dad. Thanks for the giveaway Beki.
Hope your weekend was great, also.
Can't tell you what I'd spend the money on, because it's for Christmas, and my daughter reads here. Janet
My weekend plans included Disneyland yesterday, where my 2 year old rode the Matterhorn for the first time, and laundry today, whoo hoo!
My weekend included some shopping for necessities (my husband's down pillow exploded this week and it looked like we killed a goose in our bedroom, haha). AND spending some much needed quality time with my medical school student husband:D
If I was lucky enough to win your giveaway, I wouldn't know whether to be generous or to be selfish...
If I was feeling generous I think I would get my sister the CREATE.DREAM.INSPIRE necklace for Christmas (this is quite early for me to even consider this!)
OR
I would indulge in a gift for myself and I think I would get the God is Good necklace. (If I was still running I might consider your Runner Girl necklace, I love it!)
I love your designs, keep up the incredible work.
I had saturday to myself too! I went to a few yard sales, Goodwill, got a pedi, roamed aimlessly through target.....i had a good day!
Today I babysat and babysat some more...all the name of loving children. Amen. :o)
i now HAVE TO HAVE the capture life keychain!!! Love, love, love it!!!!
you are so great! i hope to meet you soon! (now all your readers think i'm a stalker.....they don't know we've *known* each other for like 5 years or something!!!!)
I went to a Gem and Bead show on Saturday and I'm spending time with my family today. My son and DIL came in yesterday and surprised us, so her and I are doing some beading with some of the supplies we got yesterday. I follow your blog.

My weekend plans were to run a half marathon (this morning!) - which I did with my sweetheart crossing the finish line (and running the entire race) with me.
I would get one of those 1/2 marathon necklaces of course!!
I tweeted (http://twitter.com/sclubmama/status/25648437219)
I shared on FB too
My plans for this weekend were to relax and catch up on grading. What I actually did was go to a fundraiser for my school, help with my cousin's superhero birthday party, and spend most of today getting a tire repaired after I got a flat on the way home from church.
If I won, there's no way I wouldn't get a sweetly yours necklace. Probably cannot live without it...
