Fyra otroliga år

Idag är det otroligt nog fyra år sen jag började blogga, fyra år sedan jag skrev mitt första inlägg. Minns att jag tyckte att det var lite läskigt men också jättespännande att skriva något som sen vem som helst kunde läsa. Inte för att jag trodde att någon skulle läsa eller ens hitta hit. Under en tid hade jag läst Husmusen och blivit fascinerad av Fridas härliga inlägg. Jag visste inte då att hon hette Frida det avslöjade hon långt senare. Då var det många som inte gick ut med sina riktiga namn, inte jag heller, jag kallade mig Purple (fniss). Hur som helst så fick jag för mig att jag skulle prova att blogga jag med och sen har det bara fortsatt år efter år. Massor av nya härliga bloggvänner har jag fått. Jag har också fått chansen att under ett och ett halvt år blogga för giganten SvD men även för min lokala tidning Sydsvenskan. Många har följt mig genom åren och jag vill tacka er, alla tusentals läsare, som förgyller min dag varje dag genom att gå in och läsa och ibland kanske också kommentera. Tack för alla underbara och uppmuntrande mail som jag ständigt får och som gör att det är så kul att blogga, bland det bästa jag vet.

Today its four years ago since I made my first post. Four wonderful and unbelievable years. I remember that the first post was a little bit nervous to do. But then it just went on and on for years. Today thousands of you reads my blog every day. I have also met many wonderful and inspiring new friends. I'm really grateful for that and also for all the lovely comments and mail that I get. Thank you guys for making my day.. every every day!!

It Wasn't Easy Getting To The Willow Ball

Our day started out at the beach......

Everything was just fine until Cary said that he wanted to meet with some producers on an up-coming film. 

Instead of going to the party tonight.

I wasn't happy at all.

Cary had promised a long time ago that he would attend The WILLOW BALL with me!!!

As we drove back to the hotel.......

Here he is again trying to persuade me to go to dinner with his friends and associates.

I explained that I have been waiting all year to attend The Willow Ball with him.

I started to tear up......

Cary gave in.....temporary as may have been.....

he caved.

Of course....just like a man...

he was trying to get me to promise that we could leave early after making an appearance.

He said we could still meet with his friends later-

after the party.

I was standing my ground...

I wanted to dance and stay until dawn if the party lasted that long.

And then...... 

Cary pulls up in this!!!!!

He knew this would send me right over the edge.

"NO WAY" I said,

I am not going to The Willow Ball in that crazy sardine can car.

"I won't I tell you, 

I WON'T!!!!"

Well....I did and we arrived right on time.

You should have seen the movies stars that were there!!!

You still can if you go here.

Don't you know, Cary decided to dance like a mad man.

With, or without me.

I asked him to stop and spend some time with me....

He did.

Honestly, it is almost impossible to say no to him.

Could you???? 

We were definitely not having our best night together!!! 

He was still working on me to leave and meet up with his friends.

I was standing my ground.

Cary said..."You said you wanted to dance"

"Now let's dance!"

After a few rounds on the dance floor and drinks with his fellow movie star friends,

I agreed to leave.

In spite of our emotionally charged night, 

the party was outstanding and Willow had amazing food, drink and beautiful decor.

Her Manor Home rivaled Mara Largo for entertaining.

 

We gracefully said our goodbyes and thanked Willow for inviting us (ME).

Cary then drove me home in the sardine can car......

10 seconds long

See how the evening ended in this video.

My question to you is this;

'Could you say no to Cary?'

I hope you visit the Willow Ball.

Valspar Metal Paint

THIS POST IS FROM ROOM REMIX - THE BLOG .

I know this probably isn't of interest to anyone since no one in blogland ever spray paints anything! :-), but I thought I would share it in case. Have you used Valspar Metal Paint before? I tried some out tonight on an old curtain rod that I was tired of the finish on and I really like it. I used the Valspar Metal (Interior) spray paint in Graphite. It has a very nice color and metallic finish. And, no, they're not paying me to say this. Just thought you might want to know...
