Lost cat named Willow ABC News







Did you see this story on ABC World News about a cat that has been lost for 5 years. The owners thought it was probably eaten by a coyote and would never see it again. It ended up in New Jersey and when picked up it did have a micro chip. It is a beautiful cat! What a special story. Love stories like this!

So here of some pictures of my kitty who is so sweet and I will never be without a kitty. Really any pet has special places in are hearts and make us happy. I actually owned a ferrat for 5 years. She just showed up one night, I am sure someone left her, and she was so much fun! My grandkids had a good time with her "Tickles" was her name.


Ok stop rambling. Her are pictures of my kitty.

TGIF tomorrow!

Check out these porch pics!

In May of this year I posted pictures of my sisters house and mentioned they were adding a screened in porch on the back of their detached garage. Well here it is and it turned out very nice! It is huge. She has had barbecues on it several times and it holds a dozen people comfortably and has even slept out on the hot summer nights. I tried to capture it in several shots.





The section of chain link on the left will be removed, the rest stays cause of the dog.





Love having dinner out here!








This is the chest I mentioned that my sister purchased at an estate sale 2 weeks


ago for 8.00. It is really old and looks great on her porch.

Have a great Rest of the week. Hasn't that full moon been spectacular!!!

Hugs everybody!

Bonnie and Maryann


If you ever get a chance to stop at this wonderful shop you won't be disappointed. 'Brettys' which was once a stone schoolhouse. We stopped here since it is on the way to The Old Granary in Quincy. tI ran into two friends I haven't seen in awhile which is always a treat. Picture above is their happy faces.
I also have some great pictures of my sisters porch that is finished and I
will show them later this week.


Blessing and prayers on this Sunday "9-11"

Holly Hills Fall Open House and Estate sale

I found this awsome firkin at an estate sale today we stopped at on the way home from Holly Hills. It is the original green and can't believe it wasn't snatched up sooner. I paid 40.00 for it which I thought was reasonable. I have seen these for much more. My sister got some cool things too but didn't get pictures...sorry. She found this really old trunk for 8.00!!! Wish I took a picture of that for you but we were tired when we got home so maybe after she cleans it up I will get a picture for you and post it.

These are becoming a favorite candle of mine. This is a scent I haven't tried before. These candles burn very clean and last a long time so I hope I like it.

What are your favorite candles to burn?


I found some great prim goodies today at Dawns Fall Open House. A great little wood bowl woth a yummy smelling black wax witch . I think she is cool sitting in the wood bowl. A sweet little pantry box with great patina..one can never have too many pantry boxes. And this sweet little jug. Cute isn't it?


Have a wonderful weekend...what's left of it anyways.

Thanks for stopping by.
