Look What "Ted's " has....

When we lived in Moorpark, CA. we bought this little Bear wood carving from a couple who were parked along the side of the road, their story was that they were on fumes & needed gas money..so the guy sat a dozen or so of wood carvings out front of their camper to sell....
We bought this one and it has been with us for a good 6 years now....
'Ted's" wasn't to happy when we dragged him from warm sunny California to snowy raining Washington, but Gary made 'Ted's' this cool tree perch to watch the birds and world go by,,,wait, is that a smile I see on Ted's face????

What's Wrong with this Picture?

Ok, I have to admit, these "Smart Cars" are cute in an itty bitty way,,, but it did look really out of place at .....

in the parking lot of COSTCO..where people buy mega ginormous amounts of products.

AAAGGGHHH!

AAAAGGGHHH! Is it just ME? or does Blogger not like ME? or what? Lately I have been getting emails from friends saying that Blogger won't let them post on my blog, that it keeps routing them back to 'Blogger Sign-in'.... and I have noticed that lately I can not get into my blog even if I was in it a few minutes ago....I was adding pictures and each time I had to re-sign in...
Today I tried to post in two different blog sites and it kept sending me back to the 'Blogger Sign-in' page and after signing in, and typing in the 'scramble word' it would send me right back to the original Blog sign in page...I finally just gave up, and tore into my (last) stash of M&M's....
after all,,, "Give me some chocolate, and no one gets hurt!"...lol!

Shopping Tote...

Hmmmm, what is it?

Haha! could it be a 'Kitty Tote' ?????

I luv my 'tote' and Peekie gives it her approval too!

I have seen these at Boutiques but with a rather pricey tag.....but while I was in Germany I noticed that these are quite popular and they range in price from moderate to pricey....needless to say, even with the Dollar to Euro conversion this was so worth buying.....and I luv it. It folds up flat, light weight and looks cute (even with out a kitty in it) when I take it to market.

**update...I was in WallyWorld (Wal-mart) the other day and lo and behold,,, I spoted totes just like this one in vibrant colors...and for only $6.99, OMG! and to think I bought and dragged this one all the way from Germany... but that's ok, because I still love it and it's sweet rose print.

Besides, Peekie loves it too and that is all that matters! lol!
