We're wimps. ;) <br /><br />Hmmm, armadillos are a dime a dozen around these parts. Though I usually see them on the side of the road with feet up in the air rather than stuffed in someone's house. I can't imagine what would possess someone to have one! <br /><br />Pretty new Nook!! I recently remembered that Elle has a "kid's" samsung tablet that she rarely uses so I plan to appropriate it when I want to read a Nook book.Trish @ Love, Laughter, Insanityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17225576485797030511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-53399888970572735592015-06-19T13:47:06.048-05:002015-06-19T13:47:06.048-05:00That's wrong!

I like your vintage hanging basket - they're not so easy to find. I would have passed on the armadillo too!

Don't think I need one of those - there are probably some around in our area anyway. We certainly have everything else and the cicadas have started their evening and night songs now - so, so loud. The mosquitoes are flourishing, the humidity is high and it's storming outside right now. But, our drought seems to have abated. So, guess it's all good. Summer in Texas.<br /><br />Congrats to your daughter on her new job. Hope you have a great week!Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13495669354860191042noreply@blogger.com
