WHITE AS THE DRIVEN SNOW!!!

This is my baby angel, Pixie...funny, considering Pixie means mischievous devil...come to think of it...she is more like a devil than an angel..but we love her, just the same. And besides, how can you get mad at anything this beautiful!!!!

ADDED TODAY TO THE FRENCH COUNTRY LOOK!!

I just uploaded a new item on my web-site The French Country Look...take a look.

Isn't that the cutest lamp...got it from Mechelle over at The Pink Daisy, about a thousand years ago. A friend just had to have it, so now it's in a favorite spot, in her home.

WHAT IS WITH ME, ANYWAY?

Whenever I get scared, mad or just plain crazy, I go crazy.

So, now I have decided to change my studio COMPLETELY...

I am getting rid of almost everything in there and replacing it with happy, bright colorful things.

Going are the Soft Pinks and Jade Greens and in comes the Torquoise, Yellow and Reds.

So watch my website for lots of stuff that I never thought I was going to part with...cuz, I'm gonna!!!!

THE HEALTH BILL GOT THROUGH ANOTHER HURDLE!

The Senate Finance Committee has passed the Baucus Health Reform Bill...14-7.

Whether you are for it, or against it, it is going to change America. I, for one, pray it changes things for the better. My hope is, we get more good out of it than bad.

I realize I have no control over whether it is voted down, or passes. I can only choose to hope for the best, while preparing for the worst.

My prayer is that we get along, love one another and be tolerent of each other.

So, here is to us, The United States of America...right or wrong, she is my country and I stand behind her!!!

OLD POEM

I was cleaning out a drawer today (I saw a show last night on Hourders...scared the bejingers out of me), and I ran across an old poem I wrote right after my father died, some 35 years ago.

It goes:

As a child, I was as free as a soft and gentle flower,
the sound of laughter was all around.

Now, I'm grown and all confused,
I feel the world with all it's cruelty.

Sometimes when my world turns cold,
I think of those ever so warm days.

Just thought I would share...now back to sorting.

WENT ANTIQUING WEDNESDAY!

Yep, that's right...I don't have enough. I purchased this BRIGHT Yellow wicker table. I hate the color, but the table is really cool. I'm in the process of painting it (white, of course) and I am going to have to decide then, whether to keep it, or sell it.

The really neat thing about it, besides that it's old and I love old wicker, is that the bottom "shelf" is really a very large tray. AND...is removable. How cool is that?

As soon as it is completed, I will take some photos. In the meantime, here is the ""Before" photo. Enjoy!!!
