Brrrrr... And this and that... ,-)

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

NO!  It is NOT snowing this morning.  But the other day, I took these pics-of-falling-snow, and don't want to waste them.  ,-)


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We have "been-going-to-get" a few smaller-than-dinner-size plates, since we only seem to have 4 left.  "Going-to"!  "Going-to"!  "Going-to"!  You know how that goes.     ~~~~~~~~     Well, I was waiting for 'Uncle A.' to get his hair cut, after I had mine cut...  Wandered a bit, and found these on sale.  Very simple, with a bit of scallop and pale gray edging.  Hooray!!!  We now have 7 plates (a mix of 2 together), and don't run out, as quickly.

Another "been-going-to-do"   ...........   Marked off "The List"!  :-)

A SNOW  EASTER  BUNNY!  ,-)))
In the newspaper, this morning.
Pretty cute.  He even is carrying a bag of Easter Eggs!

Please play this tiny video.  It was sent to me, by a daughter in law....  Someone in the publishing business and a fellow-lover of real BOOKS!  Please click on it.  It is precious.

LOL! Loved the video...nothing can take the place of books and printed words on real paper....nothing!

Love your photos, I really like your lamp and actually was looking for a kit to make a lamp yesterday at Hobby Lobby. They didn't have them.

Have a nice day, it's cold here, too. Where's spring?

It's VERY hard to capture snow falling in pics - I try and never am able to capture it adequately :)
