GOT MOJO challenge 14

earth day---that means recycle to me.. so that is exactly what i did!

i recycled tags i found when cleaning out my sock drawer. i have the worst habit of taking a tag off of my clothes and instead of walking it to the garabage i will stuff it in a dresser drawer or go through it is my closet. i litterally found hundreds of tags!

but they came in to good use.

we had a great time! thanks mandy for such a fun trip!!!! i love you

some of my friends and i started golf lessons last night!! so much fun---he told us all "not to quit are day jobs" but followed that up with "not yet atleast".... well i for one can admit i am not good----i have a great bag--it is a bit old.... my grammas from way back when....so darn cute though! maybe i will even get a new bag and clubs if i get good..... but at this point i would rather have a cute purse or shoes.....
