I am Grounded

I know. HEAP is happening in Tyler. Portia, Gina and Alan are at it in Dallas. Hico is hopping. And me? I'm grounded in Poetry.

You see, the music is playing and I've been dancing, but I am having some problems keeping in step with the rhythm.

The next few weekends, I intend to reacquaint myself with my house and home. My land. My garden. My barn. My pond. My trees. My cats. My carpet. My laundry. My garage. (Well, that garage thing could take more than a few weekends. *wink*)

Anywhoooo, you get the picture. No public appearances for a few weeks. I am fully aware that I am missing out. And I'm not very happy about that. But, sometimes, one has to act grown up. This is my turn. Ugh...

In the mean time, here are some shirts I picked up this morning between life appointments.
Pile o' shirts
Bowling, anyone?
How's your outfit coming for Dress Up Day at Primitiques? Need a cool, vintage shirt?
Coolness
Now, would you like to take a guess at what this is? I'll be using it at an event at my house in a few weekends.
Hmmmm
It's about 2' x 2'. Hmmm...Whatcha think?

Happy Thursday!

  1. Oh! I know! I know! Pick me! Pick me! Nah... I can't say what it is 'cause I cheated and have already been told by YOU!

    Dang.... I'm jumpin' around sayin' what it is! In a muted voice though. dang.

    Okay - LOVE the shirts!!! I have an outfit... or two... or... a few... picked out!

    Now, get to work young lady and quit reading this - get to know your cats and your carpet and pond and stuff... don't forget to turn the Christmas lights on - just for mood lighting.

    ;-D (that's my big cheesy grin)

  2. Acting grown up is no fun...believe me! But a girl has got to do what a girl has got to do! So go do it, girl! What is wrong with your elbow? Bending it too much reaching into your purse for money? :) You need to get Mindy embroidered over the pocket of that bowling shirt. That would be cool to wear!

    The junking gods will reward you for exercising restraint this weekend. No really, they will.

    XO!
