we interrupt this regularly scheduled program....

obviously you can tell i watch too much television with a post title like that. oh well.

anyhow, i thought it only fair to take a day where i wasn't forcing you to look at more florida photos and decided to share instead, what i bought in florida. the "saying" pillows came first. i still need one more for the left side and two euro sized shams to go behind everything, but i like to take my time and search for exactly what i'm looking for.

then came this sign. you can see it when you enter our front door. 

i think it's only fair to let your house guests know the rules up front. snort.

i had to rearrange {and god forbid dust} the shelves in my office a bit to find a home for my 

"be yourself" reminder. it was totally worth it. 

here's one more corner in my office. 

the tiny clothespins came home with me from florida and i pulled out my old ledgers and a misty mawn painting to finish the "look." wait. that sounds like my gifted misty mawn painting was "put away" and it wasn't. it was holding court in my studio and i decided it needed a new home. i say all this like you know who misty is and some of you probably don't. unfortunately she rarely blogs anymore, but if you google her, you'll find her and fall in love with her like the rest of who know her have.

saturday was terribly windy. 

i mean like gale force winds that could have easily blown us into another county if we had ventured outside our car, but being the daring "amazing race like" people we are, 

we stopped at the petting zoo after lunch anyhow.

i said to the hubby, "what is this?" and he said, "it's an elk, right?"

i said, "i guess it is, but we don't have elk here." 

he said, "we don't' have lions and tigers either, but our zoo does."

i guess he won that one.

this elk, or whatever it is, was whining when we went near it and looked so sad to be caged, 

but then it licked it lips like we looked tasty.

after a wide eyed look at each other

it rammed it's horns into the fence and we actually felt a bit threatened. 

well, i really didn't. but the hubby did.

okay, i did a little.
