Welcome

Welcome to my little world! My name is Donna and I'm the mother of one very spoiled kitty named Clarice. I was a banker for over 20 years but now I'm a SAHM and loving every minute of it. I'm a super, huge Bon Jovi fan and an avid cross stitcher. I love decorating my home with flea market finds, primitive style items and vintage items. My hubby says if the last three generations threw it out as trash it'll end up in our house as a decoration.

Lazy snow days!

As everyone has probably seen on the news, Atlanta had a snow storm and shockingly the town came to a standstill!  I love snow days when everything just stops and you feel so cozy holed up in your home.  I spent all day yesterday in my jammies just drinking tea, eating cookies and watching HGTV.  Yeah since I no longer work then any day could be a jammie day for me but it's extra special knowing everybody in town is enjoying it with ya.
Yesterday as I passed thru the bedroom I was just stuck by how much I love this little arrangement on Mark's chest of drawers.  I picked up the old ironstone pitcher at an estate sale a few years ago for $1 and I just love, love the patina on it.  The picture I found of my grandparents when I was home visiting my folks and that's the frame my Great Grandmother had it in.  Finally the bear is my last Stieff bear that I bought in Germany.  He is a new one that has been distressed and he's sweet little face is what hooked me.

    My grandkids love the Atlanta snowfall. They had been very disappointed the last couple of years. Love that pitcher. xo Laura

    I hear ya about the snow days but I've had enough! I moved from PA to KY to try and get away from some of that. We don't have snow on the ground here right now but I'm tired of the brutal cold.
    Love the display, especially the pic of your grandparents.

    That's an adorable grouping. You folks are not use to that weather and strange to see it there. It is probably all melted by now. We have 5 extra inches today and still falling. Sick of the stuff.
    Hugs

    It's the same where I live! A cm of snow and everything shuts down! It's pretty funny to see! But we do live in a hilly city, so it can be a bit of a mess.
