Thursday Thought

So you tell me, how if my Mom is supposedly "so creative" that when she goes out to buy shoes

and she gets one black pair and one brown pair. How come she comes home with these?  I mean, REALLY?

If you're "creative" and "artsy-fartsy" aren't you supposed to get two different pairs of shoes?

I'm just sayin.

Thursday Thoughts

Mom's been doing some chillaxing, I have to give her credit. She's been sitting in her comfy chair watching tv, catching up on the Next Design Star, Next Food Network Star, Masterpiece Mystery, White Collar and one of her new favorites, Suits.

She's also been yakking on the phone and reading about some guy named Inspector Gamache.She hasn't been completely lazy though. Last night she did the dishes and left the kitchen clean before she went to bed. She hasn't done that in a long time.

Do you know she's been so distracted lately that she forgot to buy my stinky goodness when she went food hunting last time? Really! Good thing I have a BIG stash of extra stinky goodness.

Before I forget, Happy 50th Birthday, Mr Obama!

Thoughtful Thursday

Mom's been tippy-tapping, but she admitted she has to rearrange her tippy-tapping plans so I am not neglected.

I am very happy to see she got her priorities in order.

Thursday Thoughts

Mom's kind of annoyed because I've been napping under the bed a lot lately, and haven't been posing for pictures. Oh well.

This is her new quilt. She is calling it "Laughing Out Loud." You'll have to read all about it over at her quilting blog. It's a long story.

She's enjoying watching the tennis. She's rooting for Roger Federer and Dinara Safina.

The new couch smells of Febreeze. Mom hates fake smells. Oh well.

KidBean got a postcard from Parker in O-hi-o. "Where's O-hi-o," he asked MomBean?

He got a postcard from Singapore, too. "Where's Singapore?" They now have a map.

Mom says allergies suck.

Mom is planning to work on the Gizzy Raffle Quilt this weekend.

The upstairs neighbors are putting wood floors in today. The lord of land called Mom and suggested she might want to move fragile items to a safer place, and maybe move some pictures that are hanging on the walls. Did you know we have over 50 framed pieces of original artwork hanging on the walls here?

I think I'll be spending the day under the bed.

OH! It's a Big Day over at Monty's house. Pop on over to see what's up. Mom says it's a special day for KidBean, but I can't spill the beans.

No, I don't get it either.
