LOVELY SHADE OF BLUE

Join me for Blue Monday at Smiling Sally!

I love the beach glass shade of blue green. Over the years I have collected several pieces in that color. I found this bowl at the Habitat for Humanity Thrift Shop. I payed 25 cents for this..

I will continue to work on taking better photos of my treasures! Thanks for taking time to visit me and any suggestions on taking photos and blogging are appreciated!

FINALLY I GOT A PICTURE!

It seemed like it took me forever, but YAY, I got a picture downloaded. This is Charlie (see previous post). My BFF Carter finally figured out my cardreader was bad and lent me his. Nice. So now i'm all excited to take pictures of my thrifting and other finds and post them. I'm so happy!!!

CHARLIE THE CAT

Just when we make plans, things happen! I was petting my beloved cat Charlie and I felt a lump on his side near his left rear leg. I was stunned, this was a large lump, golf ball size at least. Next morning took him to our wonderful vet and after the exam he said we needed to remove it. Surgery took place on Friday and Charlie who is 10 years old did just great. Dr Varner got it all and said it looked benign. I brought Charlie home yesterday and he has a huge incision site. BUT....he is doing great! Alert unless I've just given him his pain meds and moving around like a champ. So I'm very thankful he is doing so well!

I am having a hard time figuring out how to download photos from my camera to this computer so I can start posting. Frustrated is the word. But soon....I hope this will add some followers to my Blog

Keeping UP

I have been super busy the last few months, no job so I'm sleeping, reading, watching TV and just doing all those exciting life fulfilling things I've longed to do........ NOT! so OK, I've indulged myself long enough time to get life on the move again.
Jobs are just not there right now and I'm OK with it. I'm able to live on what I'm getting on UnEmployment and I've got a lead on a job after the first of the year (fingers crossed). But till then I have realized I need to keep moving forward and not stagnating. Recently I have been reading many a BLOG about Thrifting, Junking and Collecting and I have become inspired again. I have decided to try to Blog more and share my thrift store finds and enjoy meeting new friends in the Blog world, makes me feel not alone! So thanks to the comments on my last post and I am going to continue to post and 'Keep up' with things.
