On Saturday, Brad needed a pad of paper in the spreader. After I dropped it off, I went shopping!.JPG)
I had a couple of things to get PLUS, as always, I was on the look-out for the elusive garden ornament I haven't been able to find for 3 years that's "just right". Carrie went w/ me & we had lunch. She must've been a good luck charm. We went to Old Time Pottery...& after walking through the WHOLE store...on the way to the front, we saw them..JPG)
Cool, funky gazing balls on black stands. I didn't really think I WANTED a gazing ball. Aren't they like SO 1970's? But I've seen more of them lately & these aren't just the plain jane blue or green balls. After debating & trying to figure out which one I wanted, I was set. And the best part? $25 for the whole smash! I emailed Brad a picture of them to make sure they would be sturdy enough to withstand the strong winds that come up the hill (have I mentioned I heart my Blackberry?!) & he says he will probably need to reinforce the stand just to be sure.
When I got home, Brian was @ the neighbors spraying our newly acquired field.

So I sat it out. Now, while I realize it looks kinda small in the scheme of things...I have some things planted that will eventually come up & fill in the blanks (fingers crossed!).

Its got blue, white, purple & green swirled around in it.
The kids had to come over & check it out.

So I'm happy, for now (of course I'm gonna have to bug Brad to fix the stand so it doesn't fall over). But I do reserve the right to purchase something else if I think it will fit there. Uh, hello? I'm a chick--I can TOTALLY change my mind!
