cool ideas...

I have one of these baskets...
you can get them at the Dollar General or Walmart...

in this, they used #10 cans...
you can ask your school lunch, restaurants or nursing homes to save them for you...
or you can get paint cans from the hardware store for a couple of bucks...
the paint cans are smooth... 

stuff a sock...

I think I have shared this before, but since we have all been baking like crazy...
it might be good to do it again...

those crazy hangers they used to keep...
they now send them home with you...
reuse them!

this is so cute!

in the meadow we can build a snowman...
with his kid...

old door knobs always come in handy for something...

and this cute light system...
track lighting, shabby style...

so, you got any bright ideas???

got up early this morning...
shower...
clothes...
then it was Walmart ho!
guess who had a gall bladder attack???
got to pick out a few things...
but the pharmacy was out of my meds, so someone is going to have to back tonight or tomorrow anyway...
so we scrammed out of there early...
Burger King stop and home...
nibbled on the way home...
undressed and crawled into bed...
took a good 3 hour nap...
its better but not gone...

there was more snow toward Paris than we got here...
sure looked like a winter day...
cardinals flapped their wings on my window this morning...
just came to say hi, I guess...
or to let me know they want a big bird butt feeder!
working on that...

What cute ideas. That one with the cap on the chocolate chips is genius! I have never seen that done but it's something I will do now.

Glad you got out to Walmart but sorry you had an attack, Tete. They just kind of come out of nowhere, don't they? I will be so glad when you can have that surgery done. Glad you had a nap, too. Got to shoot an email off to you and Jettie after I clean up here a bit. xo Diana

Snowing here and the roads were bad on the way home. the car infront of me spun out on a hill, of course he did a 180 and headed back down the hill and left me spinning my wheels for a while till I finally got going!

old glass door knobs are my favorite. I have several of them, now I know what to do with them.
