Tuesday Funny..or Tuesday Rage..YOU decide!

This image is thanks to my friend Tina (a.k.a. TOT) from What We Keep.

She posted this a few months back on her lovely blog and I loved it so much!

Who hasn't felt this way?!

I'm working, paying bills and have had a STYE on my right eye for over 20 days now! Yes, I went to the doctor. I have drops. It's getting old. But at the same time, I don't want to "rush it" and have to get my eyelid cut open (that's the next step, friends. Yep and no thank you!) so for future reference- Stye Gate.

We bought the doggies a pool. It's a 10 foot by 3 foot and it was totally worth the very little cash we spent on it ($25 on Craigslist! Can you say SCORE?) as Daisy our 13++ year old springer spaniel is in heaven. She LOVES to swim! Curtis= not so much. He's a bit nervous, will jump in for a ball and is OUT. Daisy swam laps for a good hour yesterday. First in a clockwise manner, then she switched it up counter clockwise. Then..before ending her time in the pool..she barked at Emerson swimming and cut through the middle. We act like she has a Clint Eastwood accent and imitate her yelling at us "GET OFF MY LAWN!" from that one movie. You know the one..?

Have a great Tuesday, Peeps!

Odd and Ends.

..And we're back!!

Just returned from physical therapy awhile ago. Grabbed Chipotle on the way home, ate that, a few tiny Mr. Goodbars and one dark chocolate bar "for health!" and I'm good to go until...six?

Did a glass of red wine in the afternoon ever hurt anyone? Just one? I think not.



As promised, my Junk Bonanza vintage box that smells..well.. vintage!

I do love it though...and I bought little tags that say things like "kiss" and "groom" and "love" and "&". The kiss one works here...and the others? who knows. I always say if you really love something, you'll eventually find a home for it. Like next to your hubby's toothbrush or something. Ha! As if Brad would even find that cute. "Hey Brad! Did you see the "Groom" tag by the toothpaste today? Darling, huh?"




Our son Curtis, age 1 1/2 sits up like this a lot lately. It is DARLING. I think it's the half doxie in him. I never know exactly what he wants when he does it, so we do various things: Sometimes he gets a hug, a kiss, or an impromptu little dance!

Below..the YELLA door!  I think I mentioned the fall wreath really "grounded" the intense yellow? I think the "W" for Weaver does as well:

Now onto some fall and Halloween decorating here! I've been kind of crazy with it, or so my b/f/f tells me. I just find it cozy and summer's end always makes me a bit sad. Minnesota winters are harsh. I'm trying to progress "happily"

The bottom is my outdoor and homemade homage/nod to Halloween. Old lattice scrap from deck build, painted black.  Tied on some of our deadened hydrangeas and voila! I love it. I normally don't do dead flowers due to feng shui paranoia, but I figure fall is the time for it!

My God, look at the cuteness of her! It almost hurts! As always, she demands fashion forward kerchiefs for each season! She says she's a "fall" as far as color types go!

Curtis too! Kerchief in fall color scheme, Peanuts style! They are both adorable and keep me young! They also stress me out with  not eating, eating crickets and dead frogs (Curtis below!) and Daisy becomes enraged after about 8pm..NO TOUCHING or admission of the fact that she exists!  Curtis and his excitement for everything is the cutest! 

I'm off to eat something...and maybe go for a quick walk before dinner. It's beautiful here but that is supposed to change in the next 72 hours. Damned you, Wolf Blitzer!

Have a beautiful evening!
