for you...

I so love vintage artwork...
the details they put in just simple little postcards...
and the thrill they must have brought when they arrived in the mail...
a world that didn't include department stores...
many baubles...
practical homes with necessities...
no decorating magazines and no blogging buddies...
a simple postcard could have easily been the only bling one would get...
imagine the importance of one simple gesture...
I know you are going to grab this one...
I love the colors and texture of her sweater...
those little chaps are just darling...

Doug has a dentist appointment this afternoon...
trying a new dentist out...
Craig is driving him there and will help communicate for him...
our family dentist passed away and we have been so lost without him...
it's really hard to find an honest one...
one who has your best interest at heart...
and not just their bank accounts...
Doug needs some major work done, but for today its just an exam and xrays...
he is so nervous...
;)
but he will be ok today...
Craig went in and picked him up yesterday afternoon after he got back from the vet...
the babies checked out fine and are in the next foster home waiting for Saturday's adoption day at Petsmart in Terra Haute, Indiana...
they may come back here if they don't find a forever family this weekend...
but I think we will never see them again...
who could resist those faces?
it is quiet around here, but we still have 2 small ones, about 4 months now...
they are still funny and really getting into trouble more and more...
BeauBeau is rotten and Tori the investigator...
she has to check out everything and he has to pounce on it...
he took off after Bebe today and I don't think that was appreciated...
the look of terror in his eyes was priceless...
they have had such a big day, they are all napping now...
getting ready for this evening to do it all over again...

Really enjoyed visiting with you and learning about your family. Dentist of any kind is not my favorite place to go. Trust the new one works out fine. Take care.

Hi Tete- Thank you for all the wonderful images you always manage to post for us.

I hope the dentist trip went okay. We are blessed to have a wonderful, wonderful dentist. He is so "family oriented" and never tries to push you to have anything done that isn't necessary. I can't imagine what we will do when he retires.

I am still at my daughters and I hope we can head back to my house tomorrow. I got most of her decorating done for her..so the house looks nice. xo Diana

Hope the kitties find forever homes.
You are an angel, caring for them as you do.

I love the vintage postcards, wish I had the ones that my grandmother kept. I wonder if they went to trash, or if they were kept, when her house sold after her death.

I love your favorite image up there too. *like the blues in it. :-) I have to find a dentist TOO!...and a doctor...and a hair girl...and an eye doctor...sigh...having to search all over again...one of the parts I DON'T like about moving. Still staying in touch with my hair girlfriend. She GOT A CONTRACT on her house. I have been praying with her long-distance about this. I am so excited with her and for her to see her faith growing. we really do have relationships with the caregivers who help us oversee our bodies and the maintenance of them, don't we??? You are right. Good ones are HARD to find. Hugs to you Tete. have fun with the furbabies. xo

Thank you for all the great images you post. I am in love with the first one in this post though. Gorgeous. Hope the dentist went well for Doug.
