A Kitchen Witch It Is.......
Just received the cutest Witchy-poo from my aunt in the mail. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! An early birthday gift. I was born just after midnight on Halloween, so I love everything Halloween! My Aunt is so talented, like all my aunts are. I definitely get my crafty-attributes from the Rosynek women. I have christened her the Kitchen Witch, since I am putting her on my mantle in the kitchen to watch over all the baking and cooking that I do!
Check out the detail in the face , and the cute little necklace that she made for the witch. A beautiful antique watch with a pumpkin on the end. Very lovely....

Dancing With The Politicians?????
Check out this picture! So LOL crazy!!!! My dear friend in the O.C. sent this to me, after her mother sent it to her. Who ever Photoshopped this did an awful good job. Maybe they really should be paired up! ABC's ratings would surely skyrocket....

New Addition Arrives!!!!
Well, we have a new addition to our family, all 1.8 pounds of her! This weekend we allowed our daughters to purchase their own dog, and this is what they chose. A Shorkie, it is a Shiztu/Yorkie designer dog. Society used to call these dogs mutts, now they rank right up there with the yorkie-poos, snuggles, schoodles, and labor-doodles. They are the "it "dog as of now, and like every other doll to come before her, my daughters just had to have it. So they combined the money they had saved up and put it together to purchase this sweet little thing. And when I say little , it is very, very little!
I told them that it would be like taking care of their own baby. It would cry at night, and have to be fed and walked, and taken out every couple of hours. And they would be responsible for any messes or damage the dog made.
So the first night my 11 year old had her for over-night, it was about 10 pm when she said she couldn't take the crying on a school night. Then she proclaimed that she only wanted to be over-night in charge on Fridays and Saturdays, because she had school through the week. I reminded her that I had explained, that for the first 2 months it would be like having a baby, and what if I would have done that the first 2 months of her life? So now as the grandmother ,so to speak of the dog, I too have to take turns watching her. And their little brother watches her doing the time they are in school. I guess it does take a village to raise a dog......

One Day at a Time....
Is this your motto too? If not , maybe it should be, now with the finances of the world going crazy, an election year, and the job market looking so bleak...Just sit back and think--One Day at a Time.
Do you remember the show by this name from the 70's? It was one of my favorites. It came in a time when divorce was just coming into it's own. The show gave you an insight to what single motherhood was like. I especially was drawn to the fact that little "Barbara" was so cute! And also, older sister "Julie", I loved her real first name Mackenzie. And mother "Ann" and her goofy boyfriend, along with a nosy maintenance man "Schneider".
Well, because I also love biographies, I knew that when I found "Losing It" in the library, I would have to read it! It was a great read. It told all about Valerie's early years on the show, her early marriage, her time on "Touched by an Angel", and her struggle with weight issues.
It is hard to believe that she had no confidence in the way she looked. Valerie never knew that she was every teenage boy's Dream Girl, and that they probably had a poster of her in their room next to Farah Fawcett. And if you love the music of Van Halen, you will also learn of the struggles that Eddie went through.
I recommend this book, it was a short read and very informative.

It's a Pretty Your Pumpkin Party!

Well, it's a "Pretty Your Pumpkin Party" out in blogland, and as I was perusing other blogs I found a site that was inviting anyone to join. And even though I haven't decorated my pumpkins yet, because I wait until the last week to cut into them, I have them around ready and waiting. Fall is a great time here in New England, the leaves change to such beautiful colors. It is nice to go for hikes and see the wonderful trees.
So come along and check out my fall decor and then go over to the "Pretty Your Pumpkin Party" and check out others who have done the same!

A cute scarecrow made by my Aunt Judy, quite the crafty Lady!
I have roosters all over, so I thought I would decorate up for fall.

I got these great pumpkins from the Christmas Tree Shop, my favorite shop!
