Tuesday is a good start...

Starting the week on a Tuesday seems to work much better for me. Somehow it is easier to have Monday out of the way before you return to work. That sort of regular schedule would work well for me. I'd like to have Friday afternoons off too. I think you see where I am going with this. Back to work and back to feeling like myself again and yet another beautiful day. I truly can't complain.

Okay, so on the way home I stopped by Goodwill. I can't help myself. (Hello, my name is Kimberly, and I am addicted to thrifting.) The place was packed. That's okay, let them keep shopping there and we won't tell them about the really good thrift stores in the area- ones that don't have the $3.25 sticker stuck in their pricing gun. Well, I managed to find a few goodies. One that I am absolutely in love with. One that managed to fly under the $3.25 radar. I guess that is because she has wings...


She was a mere $1.25. I am not usually into dolls but I think she was there waiting for me. You guys will have to help me give her a name. I also found these two hand-painted beauties...for you guessed it...$3.25 each!


So, I returned home with my angel by my side and headed straight in to take the beagles for their evening stroll. I think it is time for you guys to meet Bailey and Murphy. This is Bailey barking at the big (very big) beagles in the field across the house...otherwise known as cows.


Please note that the puppies are not allowed on the furniture. Bailey is a rebel like that. Don't fret, these two have their own room with their own lounge chair and picture window.

This is Murphy. He doesn't notice the cows (or care) but takes a darn cute picture. I don't know what I would do without either of them. You know, we have 5 cats too. I'll show more of them soon. It's one big happy family here on the little farm.


Here's to a beautiful start to my week- Tuesday not Monday. Ahhh, I just love to hear it again. It's practically the weekend. Goodnight my friends and sweet dreams. 'Til tomorrow...

Awww, so cute! We had a beagle growing up--Sam, she was the BEST. I miss that little chicken and the black polka dots on her belly! You guys have COWS too? Ok, I'm definitely moving in.

Have a great day!

It's official. I am in love with your dogs!

I'm more into auctions than thrift stores; however, I never rule those out:) I'm always in the market for a bargain - especially when it comes to antiques.

Thanks for stopping by today. I can't believe you live so close. If I remember correctly, Amelia is only about an hour away!

Lucky you--cows without the work!

The angel is sweet. Do you like traditional names, fancy names. How about Katrina Angel, or Maggie Angel? Still thinking on it.
Great finds.
Aww, the beagles are so cute. Thanks for introducing us to them.
You must be feeling better today...YAY!
