Saddle Soap & Boots!

Yep, tomorrow is 'work boot' polishing day,,,, my ranch boots are getting a little tired looking...

Wash Day....

OK, I may make my own laundry deterg.... but, I draw the line to using one of these! lol!
While reading an old 1962 Frontier Times magazine ( it takes me awhile to read a magazine...lol!) I came across the article for an old Sears & Roebuck ad.
Thank goodness for electricity & Whirlpool! lol!

Sunday,,, Oh Deer!

Gary & I were out & about on Sunday.... over in Medical Lake,,,,when we spotted these guys!

We haven't seen many deer this past Winter,,,, and yet our neighbors across the road said the deer frequent their back property ( they have 600acres of trees)... We did see 2 Doe's in our other neighbors driveway the other night.... We know the deer have been on our property as we have found tracks and deer phoo,,,, It's always a delight to see the "Rats with Antlers" in our neighbors fields and not chewing on our fruit trees and plantings,,, heck the moles & rodents do a good enough job chewing on our plants (roots),,,, Where is a Falcon/Hawk when ya need one?

Pinchies!

I got to spend time with the grand babies today... a "Play Date".... and as always, they love to get into the clothes pin bag,,,,but they call them 'pinchies' and they have a blast with them!

Jaja & Leilei help each other attach the 'pinchies' on each other.

Next thing I knew, they had attached the 'pinchies' to their toes and started walking around with them.....

After they got board they decided to move on to the "Cat Condo" much to the chagrin of Peekie. Miss Dolly went into hiding when my babies came over,,,,, Before long 'OPA' came home & relieved me of baby duty so I could go 'powder my nose'....since I never want to leave the girlies unattended.. not even to 'powder my nose' LOL!

It's amazing how quiet this house can be and then when my 2 little baby girls come over, the house if filled with dancing and squealing and 'Pinchies'! lol!

OPA & OMA are German terms for grandpa and grandma.....

Jewelery

What do you do with old and sometimes broken jewelery? why you create new jewelery!
I wish this photo had come out better,,,but I combined an old turquoise necklace, some amethyst beads and fresh water pearls to create this necklace and bracelet... I love pearls and I think the combination of pearls and turquoise is really "Me"! I added a few amethyst beads as well as some Aurora Boralis beads for that little pop of sparkle!

I think this will look cute with a cashmere sweater & Blue Jeans....
