Dancing Bridget and need help.....


Here is Barry, the proprietor of Canine House of Style giving Bridgy my oldest furchild her once a month session. Barry is poodle stylist extraordonairre. He shows poodles so he has lots and lots of practice with them! Which is good, because Bridget is a little dancer and is all over that table. See how he's having to hold her leg so she won't jump?! I'm sure Bridget would be a dancer in Vegas if she were human! She's a little crazy, but that's what makes her special.
I have a couple of other pictures I wanted to post in here, but for the life of me I can't figure out to get pictures inserted without them all appearing at the top? D*amn! Can someone please tell me how you put pictures in as you want them to be placed? I would appreciate it so much.
XOXO,
Penny

Head Planters!


Since I can't stay off of RMS I have to share with you my most fave photo of the day (only it was a day or so ago - haha!). There is this chick (rich chick I might add) "KatG", who's spaces started appearing shortly after the new RMS show. OMG is all I can say. I can't help but wonder where this money comes from? Does she own the biggest candy company in the world or something? Dear God, puhleeeeeze let me win the lottery. I swear I will give to the sick and poor! Sorry, got off track. Anyway, these HEAD PLANTERS are so cool! I've seen a couple of them before, but never a grouping of three such as this. I hope you enjoy my little indulgence since you know how much I love head things! "KatG" wrote this tag to the photo.... "Doesn't this remind you of 3 sisters? All different! Here we've got the Hippy, the fashion maven and the princess! haha These chicks rock KatG!
Update - I went in search for these head planters on the internet and I found "Kat" again, only this time on a gardening site that is sorta like RMS. You can see her container gardening skills here: http://davesgarden.com/guides/ls/view/150/#discuss or on RMS. Rut Ro for me, a new site! I think I need to add "internet surfing" to my list of interests. ;-)
XOXO,

Shoud I take the vine out?


Have you ever planted flowers and it just turned out different from what you expected? Here is a planter with purple petunias, a vine plant and a couple of other flowers that I put in to attract hummingbirds. The problem is the vine plant is taking over! It was one little 4 inch vine when I planted it! Should I take the vine out so the other plants have some space to grow?
The gardenia bushes are bloomin'!

XOXO,

Accomplishment Of The Week!




I know Martha Stewart won't be jealous, but I'm so proud of my new organization. I had folders and slips of things everywhere and wasn't getting much done because I'd spend so much time finding things. THEN IT OCCURED TO ME! I asked myself, "Penny, why don't you just set up a room by room home file in a portable file box?" Off to the office store I went for supplies! Now I have a file for every room. Even the garage! Even a file for my mom because sometimes I see things she may want to try in her place! Each room has it's measurements, paint chips, fabric swatches, pictures of room (might come in handy if ever robbed god forbid!), etc.. Also, when I surf RMS and get an inspiration idea I have a place to put it. What do you think? I bet everyone already had this but me!
Do you like my lady vase pen holders? I luvs them sooo much. The blue lady on the left I bought in an antique store when I was a teenager. Since I'm now in my 50's I guess I made a great purchase that day! :-) Thanks for stopping by!
XOXO,
Penny
