Spaghetti Success and Sea Turtle

The kids fund raiser/dinner last night was very festive and a huge turnout, with a line backed out into the parking lot. Due to cold weather the line was moved indoors along the story wall where I have just added a sea turtle who is still under construction but pretty friendly looking. I found out later over 500 meals were served what a great sucess for the PTO efforts!

Valentines Ready

Been busy bagging little treats, actually child did it, and I tied the ribbons, some bags are lighter than others meaning "temptation" must have been too great for divider of candy and samples were had.

NPR Story got it wrong, living proof provided

I listen to NPR for several reasons, classical music during the day, other lively mixes of jazz, blues and poetry, short stories and of course, dreaded news. I have to stay ahead of my work so it helps. I was making dinner one night and a lady was reading her short story, 0f how she brought in her plants and no matter what she did they died. It was a depressing tale and I gave my own plants (a gift from D) a side glance and worried a bit as they were they same variety as described in the story, however a wise woman told me she has seen them 50 years old.

Using the Girlfriend Tree and Dash Models

I stuck the girlfriend tree in the hallway and think I'll just decorate it with whatever is in vogue at the moment since the hall is narrow and dark by my standards. Dash decided to become a male model when he saw all the attention Dottie was getting. They are rescue pups, brother and sister, no way could I seperate them. A good example of love at the time we express love.

My REALLY Funny Valentine

Mother Nature is ready for Valentines Day, and Dottie is modeling a marking on her little back in the shape of a heart. Her "pants" look like Mickey Mouse.

My REALLY Funny Valentine........

Dottie is modeling this time, wearing "only what God gave her" which is a natural marking in the shape of a heart on her back. If you look close, she is wearing Mickey Mouse for pants.
