I awoke to snow.
Then the rain came and melted it away…
Presently, sun is streaming in my window.
I expect it to last about 5 minutes.
I did a little thrifting yesterday after missing out on it from a few weeks of being ill.
And miss it I did!
And miss it I did!
I didn’t find what I was looking for…
BUT
Did not come home empty handed?
Of course not.
(What a shocker!)
I have a bunny collection and I try to treat myself to a new one each year if I find something I like.
I found this at Goodwill for $3.99 and it hopped right in my cart.
It’s a large piece, about a foot long.
It may get spray painted a fun new shade.
I have not decided yet…
Any Opinions?

I found a few silver plate pieces too.
A Reed & Barton lotus bowl.
And a baby cup.
With a wee duckling on it.
This is the Reed & Barton
serving piece I found awhile back.
I used some silver polish on it and it
sparkled right up.
It’s scratched and worn.
Monogrammed too…
But, it drew me in.
My shopping zen was short lived.
Such is life… right?
My cat needed to visit the vet.
I will spare you the details.
Two hours later and
$150+ dollars poorer.
My cat looks like this;
{Utterly Miserable}
And miraculously
MINUS
the elaborate bandaging
that I primarily paid the $150+ for!
I discovered this a few minutes ago.
Frankly, I am dreading having to deal with it.
I spent several days “dealing”
(censored to keep the gross out – you’re welcome – trust me)
with the problem already and I am at my wits end.
So that is why I am wishing a few days away.
Which I know better then to do.
It’s days like this, that I swear I am going to take up drinking.
Hope your day is ROCKING! awesome.
Thanks for listening!!!!
{really}
PS-It’s been more then five minutes… and the sun is still out.
I’ll take that as a sign to suck-it-up.

Well . . . I love the bunnies — I think they’re cute as is but painting a fun color would great too! Love that little baby cup also — and the kitty. That is just too pathetic 🙂

Oh my your poor poor fur baby does truly look miserable! My fur baby Sophie has come close to had ego had ego have one of those collars. She has a very bad habit of scratching her neck raw. It got so bad that we no longer put a collar on her. We found in most cases it has remedied the situation. Hope your baby feels better soon! Love your treasures!
Kelly says

You sure know how to make a sad story sound great. lol! Really, sorry about your cat. Glad that you are feeling better and got to go out thrifting. Love the bunnies and love the cloth they are sitting on. In fact I was going to suggest you paint them turquoise. I bought a turquoise bunny a while back and it’s pretty darn cute. Just going to pull out Easter decor tomorrow.
Hugs,
Jann
