My 100th Post!

.

My Precious Followers,

I can’t express with words what the last 100 Splendid Sass posts have meant to me.  I am a member of a group of talented and beautiful bloggers that I have grown to know and love.

When I started this blog last November, I was playing around with a place to save memories and keepsakes. My blog has become a part of me; something expected by my friends and family.

There are days that I tell myself I can’t find anything to write about, or that I do not have the time. I then think about my biggest fans, my daughter and her friends, my darling son, and my wonderful Facebook friends and family.  This leaves me motivated to post at least a beautiful photograph.

I have a lot of plans for my blog in the following months, and I hope that you will grow with me my precious friends. There will be changes, and I am counting on your comments to guide me.

Thank all of you for helping make my blog SPLENDID, and I look forward to getting bigger and better.

I love you,
Teresa

AT THE GAS PUMP

At gas stations with more than one pump, drive slowly to accommodate people who are standing at the pumps or walking back and forth to the store. When possible pull up to a pump that will allow other patrons to easily get to a pump. Pay special attention to the “Cash Only” or “Credit Card Only” signs so that you will not waste your time or another person’s time.

Shop for items in the store only after you have moved your car to a parking spot. Only stay at the pump you are paying inside.

You are in a hazardous zone. Do not light cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and stay off of cell phone.

Tomorrow we will cover The Ins and Outs of Carpooling

See you soon,

Sun Kissed Interior

Lee Bierly and Chris Drake bring the tropical feel inside in their Palm Beach home. Sunny Extravagance is what I think of when I admire this gettaway home. Traditional Home included the best of color in this issue, and this home is no exception to that focus. I hope you enjoy strolling through the photographs as much as I have. Enjoy!

PARKING LOT ETIQUETTE


In parking lots, go slow and pay attention to all of the signs. Do not drive down a row in which cars are parked the opposite direction, and do use extra caution if driving through an open space in a row to get to the other side; it is hard for the other drivers to see you coming through. Center your car in the parking space, and don’t even think of cramming an SUV or pther large vehicle into a space reserved for compacts.

Tomorrow we cover At the Gas Pumps.

See you soon,
