~ HAPPY CANADA DAY
TO MY NORTHERN FRIENDS ~
Yesterday I went to an outdoor vintage market. Since I still have my houseguest . . . and she hates to be left home . . . we headed out. Ernestine is twelve now which really isn't old for a pug, but she has arthritis and can't walk long distances. Plus she is so darn stubborn I would have had to drag her when she decided not to walk (and she is much too heavy to carry for long!). If I must say so myself, she is just the cutest thing and got so much attention. So many people wanted to pet her and I heard from a half dozen shoppers that they had a pug at home.
My "treasure" that came home with me was this garden gnome. He has his faults but fits in my garden perfectly. I just love garden junk!
A couple weeks ago my enabling sister-in-law told me the mega antique mall about an hour from me was having a sale. I don't care for the huge malls, but couldn't say no 😁. Of course what I found was not on sale . . . but the mall will call the dealer with an offer. I just wasn't wild about the dough box I was using as a sofa table and was looking for a dry sink. Well . . . this was the perfect size and a really great price (and it is perfectly imperfect) . . . and it fit in the back of my little SUV. Now I just need to try to sell the dough box. For years it sat in my basement and I really hate to put it down there again. It is currently just sitting in the middle of the living room. So hard to get a picture of the dry sink because it is only a few feet from the window. I guess it is past time to put the tulips away for the year.
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊
Lauren
