Art, Great Grands, Bottle Trees for Spirits and Haints

 We are all a work of  ART. Amber (my daughter), had an adventure packed weekend... and at least I could go home when  the girls wore me out on  Sat. night. Yep, girls, both Everleigh and  Felicity stayed the night  at Ambers.  Two silly girls.  Everleigh wore me out. That girl is something else.  Look at her, going on seven but looks and acts seventeen. Then there is this girl. Felicity. Such a sweet face. Don't let it fool you, she  is a wild thing! Cousins, six and four. They were so adorable together. They giggled and giggled.  I left to head home which was after Everleigh and I playing,  tickling, playing rock, scissors, and paper which seemed like  50 times, fighting thumbs another 50 times (before Felicity got there). coloring together and then  laying on the floor and balancing both E and F on my legs up in the air so  they felt like they were flying. The girls played chutes and ladders with Nini and Papa...

Coffee on Deck, Hobby or Life, Air Conditioner, Toolbox, Babe with the Power,

 Last yr at this time I was busy working in the dirt looking for fossils, planting things, messing around in the yard, and with all that, coffee was never appreciated. I did not take the time last yr to sit and enjoy it on the deck. This yr, still not having the ump  that I had then and what I really wished I had now, so I get to  sit and do my coffee more. I saw this meme/quote whatever, I like it.   I order me something for the  shed, it came late yesterday afternoon. Air conditioner for the shed. I wanted one with a heater and  there are a lot out there, HOWEVER, they are all made in China. Everything I have bought in the last couple of yrs that is  made in China, it either don't work when it gets here or in a few months it starts giving  you issues.  So, I wanted made in the USA. Those don't come with heaters. SO, a heater will come later, its own little device,  so, now, it's time to find some UMP> Gotta get the Craft Cave organi...

Mother Day Love, Psycho Mom, and Skinks

Image
Just finished up yesterday's blog and  posted it and getting a  head start on today's. This was Mothers Day... Misty must have known it  was a special day so she  is giving me some special loving. About the time she reached 4, she stopped being a cuddle bug so  I take the cuddles when I can. She says, "mom can't be serious," but if you notice, her face NEVER changes, she is the serious one. Big difference between her and Lily, Lily's eyes show all sorts of things making her facial expression change depending in her mood. Speaking of Lily,  my Mothers Day gift from her was she allowed me to lay beside. LOL... I don't joke. Not only do I battle catitude there is that tori mix in there  also.  I can see my kids saying this. I have some railroad ties that lay along side part of my driveway. I have a frog living under there. I had to stop the mower one day  and again the next the weeder, to  get him out of the way. Then the other day while me...

Mothers Day, The Pruett's, Barbies Clothes, Daughters Clothes

Image
Hello all! First on the blogging to do  list this morning is.... To all you beautiful moms, be it with human kids or fur babes. I have touched on the subject of Jeanne Pruett before.  She lived three doors up from me when I was a little girl. Her daughter was a yr to two  older than me but her and I used to  sit on their front porch and play Barbies.  I ran across this write up on  a page on FB yesterday. By the time Jeanne and Jack Pruett moved to 3814 Bonnacreek Drive in Hermitage in May 1961, Jack  had been playing guitar in Marty Robbins' road  band for several years. He'd already played on albums  like "Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs" —  "El Paso," "Big Iron,"  the whole album cut in a single session at  Bradley Studios in April 1959. Jeanne was home raising two kids. She was also  writing songs. In 1963, Jack brought some of her  material to Robbins, who signed her to his publishing  company and got her...
