I haven't had a chance to post much lately. I have been trying to get a lot of finishing touches in my house done, and I have done a lot! I went to Home Goods a couple of days ago. If you don't have one, it's part of the Marshall's, TJ Maxx chain. I love it there! Everything is so inexpensive! I met a friend and we were looking around. Everything we looked at was $12.99! I did buy a big vase for $24.99 and 2 pictures for $39.99. That's extravagant for Home Goods! They might be seconds, overstock, whatever.
I have been collecting dried flowers and silk flowers to fill my vases. Here is the main one I wanted to do first. What do you think? Does it need fixing? I need advice.
Jessie is still trying to convince Steve to get rid of the big dogs. She will eventually get her way. I really hope it doesn't take another incident for him to see that they cannot keep these dogs. I would have killed him long ago!!! She has been missing Oreo, the dog that was killed. She started talking about getting a little dog, we looked at different breeds, yadda, yadda, yadda, and decided that what she has, Japanese Chins, are the calmest, and the best for them. To make a long story short, they got hit with a big house tax bill, and I bought the dog for the whole family for Christmas. The kids were all for it, even though I will get them small gifts anyway. Well, Ginger Rose came on an airplane on Tuesday, all 3.8 pounds of her. I almost fainted when I saw her.
She is the cutest little thing! She won't get very big - about 5 or 6 pounds, and looks like a china dog. What a personality too! Sweet, fun, paper trained, doesn't fuss, loves to play, and we all just love her. The big dogs are never allowed to come in the house, and now they have Ginger Rose and Smoochie, the two Japanese Chins.
Here are some pix:
