One of THOSE Days

It started with no coffee.  None.  Zip. So I jumped in my vehicle and headed to the shop and had to drive around a dead skunk at the end of my driveway.  I should have gone back to bed.  It did not get better.  Disappointed  in a friend's behavior that really hurt my feelings.  I should have thicker skin by this point in life, I guess.  But I am still counting my blessings,  time with some of my grandchildren... well spent.  Those little arms around your neck  a little boy laying in your arms in his blanket "color with me, Mamaw" are all the healing  a heart needs! And the ladies in the picture? A yard sale find for $1!  A pair just like that hung in our living room  throughout my entire childhood... I could not pass them up!

He did get some good finds, But there was a lot of sorting to find them.  And a lot of questionable purchases... This being the BIGGEST  ques
