Mom and I went to lunch and stopped in to a nearby thrift store.  We haven't done anything together since the cruise last month because I've been gone.  We had a very nice afternoon! I don't usually buy Pyrex even though I love it because I don't have room but this bowl was deep with steep sides and I just had to have it. Especially on half price day! $2.99  Our Black Lab, Gracie might have to be jealous of this new addition to the family.  She stands about 6" tall and is solid, maybe clay?  It's very heavy. The figurine is darker than the photo shows.  No markings on the bottom, but it's professionally felted. $2.99  I love these rocks because they have a purpose.  They are good coffee coasters while looking beautiful on the table.  $1.25 each Forget the iced drinks.  They sweat too much and there is zero absorption. I'm not sure what possessed me to leave all my little house books behind whe...

Happy Halloween!   Gracie dressed up as Snow White!   Here in Florida with the weather so balmy it was beautiful for Trick or Treating.  We live on a street with only two other houses  and only three children in the neighborhood so we do not get visitors here on Halloween.  Our Gracie lasted just a few minutes in her costume, enough for me to get a picture and share it.   Mr. Me and I watched Darby O'Gill and the Little People and I remember why the Banshee scared me to death when I was nine!  A perfect night to watch this!  Hope all of you, my readers, my friends, had wonderful fun  Halloween this year!

Taking a pet along on a road trip can be harrowing for some, but our dog Gracie loves to go! We stop every hour and a half to two hours and she leaps out of the car and begins sniffing everywhere!   She loves being with us, so lying in the back seat on her pink bed she rolls and stretches.  At home she is not allowed on the furniture, so this is a real treat.  We take turns walking her while the other attends to business elsewhere. It's a long road to Ohio and back from Florida We are totally familiar with every rest area  She sometimes seems a little bored, traveling.    Well, maybe a lot bored after a dozen hours But she is one happy puppy when we arrive at the end of our road trip. But then...... What???  We have to drive back? It's OK Gracie!  Remember, there are dog treats at every drive thru window and "home" with all your toys at the end of the road! ...

                It's officially Fall tomorrow but Gracie couldn't care less.  It's always cool in the living room!                                                               Hickory Dickory Dock......                                                    We love our new addition to the family!   There is always some knitting ...
