I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
 Revelations 1:8

Beth made me do it!

I was blog hopping...
innocently...
I swear...
and I popped into see what Beth was up to...
and then I popped into her food blog...
and I kept looking...
until I couldn't take it anymore...
this is the best I could come up with on short notice...
ice cream sandwich...
butterscotch topping...
a reese's peanut butter cup on top of all of that...
it is good...
my will power is gone...



this is where I left it...
go on...
go look...
I double dare ya...

some of the things I collect...

advertising cards...
I love the graphics...
early, early greeting cards...
with special verses inside...
the size of a post card...
the front cover is embossed...
the edges are die cut...
another die cut...
I have my albums out...
so I will be posting more later...

watering can fun...

I have been wanting to do this for weeks...
finally getting around to some things...
the hanging basket looked done...
over done...
so it's gone...
the sedum is coming on...
not only the cars got a bath last night...
so did Bebe...
I soap him up 3 times!...
white dogs who roll in the tar bubbles turn into dalmatians...
this mess is going...
I have not been happy with it in a long time...
so we are transplanting some...
the rest on the burn pile...
I was telling Craig I'm not happy about it and I want it back to grass...
or rocked...
and he has an idea about a hammock here...
stretched between the two trees...
pea gravel under and keep the brick border...
sounds like a plan...
I will keep you posted...

finally...

we had a mini car wash last night...
and the crud has been scrubbed off...
well, we still have the truck to go...
but it's progress...
I can't believe the car is 12 years old now...
time sure flies...
it still runs and the doors aren't falling off...
so it will be here a while longer...
the reason I picked it was because the back seat folds down...
and makes the trunk super sized...
including the back seat area...
and from the trunk you can haul lumber...
chairs...
dressers...
cause you never know what you are going to find rummaging!...
I have hauled so much back there...
and always carried bungee cords and a red flag for larger things...
because at the time the kids were still in school and I had to be practical...
we had to ride together so much...
Craig got his van this time last year...
it gets him to classes and back...
it's 17 years old...
out of 4 vehicles...
there isn't one car payment...
and that's a good thing...
now if we just didn't have to have insurance, tires and gas...
it would be a perfect world!...
