Many moons ago I was "Half British", I am no longer!

I do however love the quirky vintage style I saw in the UK!

I love Cath Kidston! I can't afford her nor will I pretend like

I would pay 100 dollars for a bag. Today I happened on a  charming

British website that could put Ms. Kidston to shame.

 

 

Grab a cuppa and sit on the settee for awhile!!

 

Indulge here!

What I learned from Eli!

 

 

Eli is my littlest friend and nephew,

he has taught me some stuff in his tiny little life!

 

*Dimples are cute!

*Talking to your self is just fine!

*It's OK if your hair pokes up!

*Big feet are best!

*When someone pats you on the back and your

cheeks giggle...it's cute!

*Touching someone's face like Helen Keller is

a good way to get to know someone.

*When you get frustrated just blow bubbles w/

your little mouth it soothes you!

*Shoes and pants are optional when it's hot!

*Drooling is fine!
*Loving small dogs makes one life just
that much better!!

 

Love you little LeeLye!!

4th and it was oh so good for the soul!!

*America I love thee!! 

*Fodie my tiny nephew, teased me today by picking up my

keys walking toward the door, waving and acted like he

was going to still my car.

That cute kid forgot he was only a year old.

*A random woman told me I was "very smart" today!

*We have had a week w/ temperatures over 100 and

I honestly almost died!

*Don't understand the draw to fake bombs

being fun? They are just to LOUD!

SLC I decided I need to drive a very large truck!

*My car is perma nasty from the sprinklers and dust combo

it sports daily!

 

Happy July Ya'll!!



Happy

 

Picture From Here:

 

 

 

 Today all three classes at church were on being happy!

All the lessons were profound, deep and soul searching!

Often I find lessons on happiness to be skin deep,

all the church answers and given w/ fake smiles on

faces and everyone nodding. Not today. Truths were told, "I'm sorry"

spoken and deep thoughts expressed. It was much needed!

I feel compelled to express some of my happiness's!!

 

*The nephew's!

*The nieces!

*My love of creating!

*My ability for seeing good in JUNK!

*Adventures!

*My love of a good book!

*My love of children!

*Naps!

*Air conditioning!

*A good nights sleep!

*Walks!

*Paint!

*Seasons!

*My cheapness!

 

What makes you happy!?

*My neck is still killing me!

** Wave** to the little girl (3ish) who gave her dad the peace

sign while singing to him in church on the stand!

*My car needs an oil change again!

*I got my "toes done" the other day and

it's been so cool I haven't been able to show em off!

*How does one know if one needs a chiropractor or a massage?

*I have no idea what Theodore signs sometimes!

He was telling me he wanted water

I thought he was wave'n bye to his mom and slapping his cheek!

*While on a walk tonight a little girl (3ish) ran to pet Lucy the dog.

She told me thanks and let me know she'd invite me to her birthday party!

I have never seen her in my life, but I am sure we could be fast friends!

*Theodore will tell Jones the dog to leave the chicken's alone

w/ the right inflection but in his own language!

*I wonder about people who buy LARGE shopping carts of

items at thrift stores. Where do they put it all?

*Getting in a hot car after it has sat in the sun...KILLER!

*Sometimes primer is more then the furniture!

 

Happy Summer!

 

Mirror, Mirror.

 

It breaks my heart to hear my elderly neighbor (100) express the

hardship of going blind. It makes me giggle when she comments on

how nice I look each time, before I leave!!

Shopping!

 

 

Today while shopping I saw an over heard a SUPER funny

conversation. A little boy look at a very loud and

very opinionated Asian woman, and w/ LARGE eyes stated.

"I saw you on TV!" The woman ask "Why I on TV!"

The little boy stated that "The cops caught you and put you in jail!"

The woman stated That wasn't me. The little boy assured her it sure as heck was her

and he new it! Sadly it was my turn to check out and I missed the rest of

the show but it was so funny!! I hope that kid never

sees me on TV!! 

It's called perma dirt people!!

 

I picked up this darling the other day! (I paid for it)

It is so nasty and so dirty!

 

 

 

I love the little wooden handle!

 

 

She had a wild past life and is sport'n a tattoo!

 

 

She'll be primed and painted and as good as new before she

knows it!! I do love the yellow and gray though. Or I would if it was clean!

 

 

 

Today was cool and perfect. Seventy Five was the high.

It was Oregon cost weather! I loved it!

I have the worst pain in my neck. It makes it hard to be

alive. I have used every darn thing I have found online to save me

some pain..but alas no go!! What a "pain in the neck!"

 

Happy Friday and Happy Flag Day!
