Snow In Alabama

Good Morning friends. I am writing to report an unusual phenomenon for November in Alabama. Snow fell last night at my house. Amazing?? Well, mother nature had a great deal of help from some four legged creatures. Lilly, a black lab mix and Buddy, the 16 year old yard dog, sleep in the garage. Because the temp has been dipping in the 30's I was worried that they needed something to snuggle in. I found two wonderful very large green checked pillows at a recent yard sale for 50 cents a piece. I was so proud. My pups would be comfy. This morning I was greeted by snowfall. As you can see Buddy couldn't look me in the eye. He kept his back turned. Lilly refused to have her picture taken.......It's a good thing I didn't have much invested in their doggie beds!!!
Well, I'm off to yard sales tomorrow and Saturday. My booth partner, Wise Wonderful Wanda, has moved her stuff out to a store she is starting soon. Yikes.... Now I am the sole proprietress (I love that big word) of the booth and responsible for twice the rent. Wish me luck. I will be taking two primitive cupboards up there this weekend and I hope they will be some lucky some one's Christmas present. Below is a picture of some of my treasures from last week. The glass holds the contents from a bag of buttons. The white wicker basket is for vintage bits and pieces of fabric to be used in projects. To the pretty lamp I will add, a shabby chic shade made from the aforementioned linens and also paint the black bottom stand shabby white.It is for the office/guest room that is blue,white and yellow. I have more projects than sense but I love it all.
Have a great day and thanks for stopping by....... Lena

LOL You said it was a mess, but I didn't visualize that! Poor Buddy. Poor Lena!

What a mess your critters left for you. Yeah, but we love them in spite of it all. I hope you have a good vacuum.

I like my snow better Lena. I use to live in LA, Lower Alabama that is. I was out of work for a week in 1980 because it snowed 4 inches. Thanks for stopping by my blog.

LOL! I've had that too so now I don't buy beanbags for them - they have old fashioned blankets in their basket.
