Well, I have safely returned from my journey to the grocery store...of course, I bought four geraniums, for the garden, and six little dolls...they are so cute, and will look great standing on the desk...I bought two of these little dollies at Safeway last week, so now I have 8 of them altogether...they are just cheap little dollies from Safeway, but they are very cute, and will look great standing up on the desk...they are all in springtimey outfits, so they are just right for the season...I also bought three bottles of wine on sale...good grief, go to the grocery store and come home with plants, dolls, and wine...Oh, yes, I also did buy some food, what we needed for the week

As, I said before, I dont care how much a dolly might cost, cheap or expensive, if I like it, I buy it...these just happened to be some cute little cheapy dollies to decorate my computer room with....

When the hubby was out yesterday, he was getting some repair done on one of the cars, and he had some time to kill, so he went shopping...He went to one of our favorite stores, which we call the bird store...they have all kinds of foods and such for wild birds and critters...but they also have so much more...bird houses, t shirts, Christmas ornaments, and lots of collectibles...we always enjoy going there, especially around Christmas....

They also have one of our favorite collectibles, called Harmony Kingdom, and one of their lines is different animals...I have several of their pieces and just love them

So the hubby stopped in yesterday to see what they had...and when he came home he was all excited...he had a special bag for me, with two Harmony Kingdom pieces in them...one was a piggy, sitting up on its haunches, and looking ever so cute...and the other one was a chubby basset...oh they are both so cute, and are sitting atop my computer right now...

That basset is called 'Nell' and so is just toooo cute...she is so detailed, ,and has her fat wrinkly stumpy paws, and the long silky ears, and the long snout, and even that characteristic point on the top of her head...and if you look real close, you will see she is hiding a little tiny mousie under her right ear...all you can see is the mouses little head sticking out...how cute

My hubby is a good guy...

I am so charmed you go to supermarket (which you hate) but come home with lovely geraniums and dollies (which you love)
your hubby is sweetheart to get you such nice gifts

beforeI threw everything in bathtub so rugman could work, I had a wonderful badger fetish on my desk which I loved
I have no idea where it is now?
Love, Palo
