A FRIDAY laugh -

This was an ad that came on when I was you tubing -
I always press the option SKIP AD - always - because for the most part I HATE ads - I hate them so much I once did a " rant " on them HERE
but this one is hilarious...................which made me realize - if you can make me laugh you have a much better chance of me me being interested in your product.



Oh - and it made me buy the product !!!

I made John watch it - and then told him I was going to post it .

John says - What kind of a post is that?
John says - Talk about turning people completely off.......................
Suzan says - But this is one of the best before and afters I've ever seen !!!

Have a wonderful weekend everyone - lots of work being done in the house this weekend
LOTS

Much love,
Moi

Willow Tree Love....................

Good morning everyone !

I pulled out one of my willow trees figurines to put in the small guest room ( to remind the little ones that must still say their prayers even when they're at a sleepover at Lolli & Pop's! )


and it reminded me that I haven't unpacked my collection yet

I have some that represent my kids ( and that I sometimes use as place settings ) these ones, are in fact, unpacked and sit on my end table beside my bed ) these must always be my bed - even if I end up in a home one day - not remembering anything at all - these MUST sit by my bed.............





it felt like Christmas last night opening all of these up again











I love them all - even the ones with missing limbs ( which are in a jewellery box waiting to be glued back on


They were all gifts and hold a special place in my memories and my heart and it all started with this one - given to me by a sister of the heart


I've given many many of them as gifts as well - for baby showers - Christmas gifts or just because


Stay tuned - I just ordered another very special one .....................she's inscribed " Grateful "
Can you guess what it's for?



Have a beautiful day all
Much love,
