The Best Garage Sale I've EVER Been To
Comments (21)Kirk: I'm just getting to write to you about that "best Garage Sale ever !" The best part was you took your daughter.. the together. fantastic.. the icing on that cake really.. was that you and daughter had fun.. and helped the person who was having the sale.. Truly it is fun to buy treasures... But you all know Giving it away ( although I might not do enough of that - I try) but really the JOY OF GIVING IS G R E A T and I can just picture that lady getting so much pleasure seeing YA'LL having so much F U N and also the fact that she knew that her T R E A S U R E S now had found a new home with the perfect family to love them and treasure them and then pass them on along.!! Keep up the teaching and keep up the quality family time P>S> Your little daughter is A DOLL (not a scarecrow - but she is the cutest one I've ever seen.. doesn't scare me !) tee hee ! God Bless You and God Bless Your Family! And Thank God America has Good Quality.. I mean to say F A N T A S T I C.... Teachers like you !! I'm a better person since I am getting to know you !

Comments (10)Thank you all. :) I feel like she was sent to us for a reason and we love her so much. She hasn't snapped at me in almost a week. LOL She still doesn't care much for our pug kids but we're making tiny steps in the right direction. I took a chance on her level of trust in me and cut her hair earlier. She done very! well , much to my suprise. Healthwise, she's on a roll in the right direction. Finally putting on some weight (she was 9 whole lbs @ her vet checkup :( ) , her hair is growing back and her owies are healing. I hope on hope there's a special place in hell for the person that treated her so badly and the more I work with her and learn , the more I hope that person goes there. That isn't neccessarily the right way to think but from my experience and in working with her , I've figured out she was absolutly loved , pampered and trained by someone in her former life and then for whatever reason landed in the wrong hands. I took her to a public event and she socially gravitated toward older gentleman and not even knowing them , sat ever so gently next to them at their feet. I really think she was owned by such a gentleman and then he met an unfortunate fate of some type (i.e. nursing home, facility or worse) and whomever was supposed to care for her in a way he hoped, sure failed her miserably. She lets me work with her , love on her and care for her BUT she truly thinks the sun rises and sets on my husband so she certainly puts more trust in men than women. Lucky for her , he loves her as much as she does him or she'd be in trouble (or I would...LOL). Anyways, that's the Honey update. :) Have a safe and happy holiday weekend everyone!!...See MoreI've Been Away for A While
Comments (37)Hi!s & Hug!s Me too, so happy to see you back here where you belong cause "we like you"! And nice to know you don't have to worry about that fireplace anymore, lol. What fun it must be taking refinishing classes! I just got some furniture from my mother's estate and want to refinish them darker wood tones for my home. I'd be thrilled to see your projects and learn from you! We should all start a refinish thread in the Gallery to help each other! Want to? May I wish you courage to be happy "Your Way"!

Comments (28)I never saw Arlo, but from time to time ( like once in a blue moon) there would be Arlo sightings iin my general neighborhood visiting with his mother. She had a dance school right by the elevated train station. Marjorie Mazia. I was just remembering when the movie Alice's Restaurant came out. We went into "the city" (which is what we called Manhattan, coming from Brooklyn) to see it.Marjorie Mazia School of Dance...See Morenickel_kg
