Singin the Monday blues.

Good mornin Nashville! Well old Monday has rolled around again. The days are gettin somewhat cooler kind of like fall is tryin to roll in. Love'in it! What's up with the Ipod thing? Mike bought one.OMG! How on earth do ya download song onto the thing? It's the craziest thing. Got Itunes downloaded and have the soundtrack of Hairspray in my library,but can't for the life of us get it into the Ipod! So I am listenin to Hairspray as I type my famous blogs. At least I can still listen to the music. If I want to take the songs with me,I'll have to strap my desk top computer to my back and carry it along. LOL! A little heavy.
Watched a John Waters stand up comedy last night. It was funny to hear about his movie filmin career. He tells some of the stuff he and Divine use to do. Pretty funny stuff. Didn't finish watchin it cause it went on pretty late. Got sleepy and had to go to bed!
Accordin to Hairspray,the world keeps spinnin round and round! And ya can't stop the beat! How true is that?


Hopin ya'll have a great Monday! Bubba

Bubba's in the house!

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood Possums. The sun made an appearance today. The last two days have been overcast and rainy. Mike was off on Friday and Saturday. He worked on an old doll he once bought at the thrift stores. The doll wig came in the mail yesterday and he glued it on the doll. She looks marvelous! The design of her new dress is in the works. The skirt turned out wonderful. Her top is on the design table still. I will have the before and after pictures when she is finished. It will amaze ya'll! Here I am takin time to smell the roses this mornin. Aren't they pretty? And lookin good in the old silver coffee pot I might add.


The pink flamingos summer run is about to come to a close as fall comes into play. What a welcome change fall will be from the hot summer. Before we know it,Halloween will be up next. The Tennessee State fair is this month. Mike and I will be goin to see the exibits. We don't ride anything. Walkin around the fair is good exercise.



Mike bought an Ipod and can't figure out how to use it. We tried to download ITunes but it didn't work right. We had to uninstall it. I guess we'll have to try again. I guess that covers my Sunday blog. Have a great day! Bubba

Holy Pumpkin Batman!!

Good mornin Possums! I will share with you the wonderful carvins of a Mr. Scott Cummings from Perryton,TX. I know ya'll will love them just as much as I have.







Can we talk Possums? What a carver!







Hope ya'll have found these fun ta gander at. It was my pleasure to share this wonderful talented artist. Bubba

Holy Pumpkin Batman!

TGIF Possum's!

Boo! LOL! Hello my Peeps and Possum's! It's Friday afternoon and a cloudy overcast day here in Nashville. It did rain a bit this mornin. Love rainy days. Chillin out in front of the TV. The aroma of fresh turnip green cookin fills the air. Mike and I went to the thrift store earlier. Didn't find any treasures that were piticularly interestin. Sorry I don't have a good thrift store story. No great dolls lerkin in the corner or any teapots. Very sad indeed when that happens. Now I say to ya Possums,please bring all your old dolls from the 50's and 60's to my thrift store. I promise to take good care of them.


Hello! Are ya'll listenin? Look into my button green eyes. Just kiddin. Bubba

Midweek!

Happy midweek Possum's! Mike's been eatin his salads. He's losin weight like crazy! Way ta go! He's doin very well on his diet. Been excercisin everyday.
I see everyone made it through the holiday and back to work and school. Midweeks here. TGIF in two days! So keep on smilin! This is a short week for most of ya'll. Fall is in the air. Love the fall of the year. To me it's the prettiest time of the year. The changin of the leaves and all. Almost time to carve the pumpkins! That's always fun. Messy,but fun. I wonder if there will be any pumpkin carvin contest here in Nashville this year? Would love to visit it. If I find one ya'll can sure bet I'll be Johnny on the spot with my digital camera! I will share my findins here in my blogs. That will sure be fun to display. I also know that the Botanical gardens here have a scarecrow display every Halloween. I'll try and make it out this year for the shots to share with ya'll as well. The Tennesee state fair is up and comin as well. So there will be lots of stuff goin on in my blogs this next few months. Bubba is the Sock Monkey about town.



Here is a picture of a little scarecrow doll to keep entertained in the meantime. The little scarecrow doll was an ebay find. Eventhough she is factory made,she still has the appearance of a home made doll. Mike loves the old rag dolls. His Grandmother use to make rag dolls. She kept a shoebox under the bed that contained two little rag dolls he played with all his life growin up. Their names were Molly and Polly. They each had a complete wardrobe of clothes. It was always a treat to visit Mama Lockie's house and play with the little dolls. Mama Lockie was a very talented woman. She painted pictures and had them hangin all over her house. And she loved collectin pretty dishes. Mike takes after her in the artistic world.


The horse picture was painted by Mama Lockie. Mike has kept this picture safe all his life. Has treasured it!



Mike love these old silver plated coffee pots. He finds them at the thrift store for a couple of bucks. Has a small collection of them. The more tarnished they are the better he likes them. They have character.
The IPod mike ordered from overstock.com has yet to come. UPS has been here twice and Mike has missed them. Hopefully they will bring it today and we will receive it. Sometimes UPS can be a pain in the butt! They won't leave it in the mailbox,Mike has to sign for it in person. He tried to get them to do so by fillin out the little yellow slip that they leave,but to no avail. The next yellow slip he got said he had to sign in person. That sux! Maybe we'll have the luck on our side today. God will take care of us. Have a great Wednesday! Bubba

The day after.

Good mornin Possum's! It's the day after! Labor day has come and gone once again. The cook outs long since over. Time to settle back into fall and winter mode now. Next stop Thanksgivin! I can smell that turkey cookin now! And it smells fabulous! The folks that came into WF last night were just shoppin. They did not celebrate the holiday so it seems. The store was busy all night! Can't believe folks get the holiday off from their jobs and all they do is grocery shop. It's a sad state of affairs.


What about this hurricane happenin in New Orleans? Can ya'll believe it? Not again! Those poor people! I'd take that as a sign it's time ta move to another state! No more ocean front property for me!



Here I am in Paris Tennessee! Yep! They have one! It's there behind me. Weird isn't it? It made for a good picture anyway.



I'm all dressed up to wish ya'll the greatest Tuesday ever! It's gonna be a fabulous day! Now that I see the world does not care about Sock Monkey happenin's, It's all good! Me-N-Mike are havin a party! Doin the Sock Monkey cha-cha! Bubba
