Blogging, Browsing, And Burgers

My day started very early yesterday with this little munchkin biting on my toes at 4:30 am.  She then walked up to my arm, purring loudly all the while, and bit it!  I tried to go back to sleep, but I was too annoyed by the little toe-biting bandit who woke me up, so I got up and started my day.  I first sat down at the computer to read a few blogs and just happened to click on one that I hadn't read before and found a curious statement by a blogger who shall remain nameless.  She stated that one thing you should never do while blogging is to show photos of your cats.  Huh?  I thought surely she's just joking so I reread the post and, sure enough, there wasn't a glimmer of humor to be found anywhere.  She was serious.  Well, I guess I've been going about blogging all wrong.  I mean, who knew?  I post photos of my cats, as well as birds and any other animals I think are photo worthy.  I wanted to write a comment and ask her if she'd ever heard of a certain red-haired woman who lives on a big ranch that we all know, who regularly shows photos of her dogs, cats, horses, and cattle.  But I refrained from saying anything at all.  Everyone has their own style of blogging and blog for different reasons.  But I must say, that comment had me scratching my head.  Now, let's fast forward to the flea market. 

After my hair appointment yesterday, I stopped by a flea market where I found this wall shelf and thought about buying it, but didn't.  And it was only 16 dollars!  After thinking it over, I think might go back and grab it before someone else spots it.  If it's gone, then I'll tell myself I wasn't meant to have it!  If I get it, I'm thinking about painting it white and then sanding the edges to let the darker wood show.  What do you think?  Would you paint it?  Another color I thought might look good is red.  I love red. 

About the doctor's orders, when I went in for my blood work the other day, I was sure that I'd gained several pounds this winter, but the doctor told me I'd only put on half a pound.  I told her that the scales must be malfunctioning because I certainly felt fluffier around the middle.  She asked if I were getting any exercise and I said, "Are you kidding?  You know how cold it's been!"  She wasn't too sympathetic to that remark and suggested that I walk at least twice a day for a few minutes to start.  I then told her that I'd just walked for several hours browsing around some antique malls.  She was impressed and thought that I should do it more often!  So, I'm just following doctor's orders when you read about my antique/flea market visits!  

    
After the long day, I fixed a simple meal of hamburgers and chips followed by ice cream floats made with Dairy Queen ice cream and Pepsi.  Yum, yum!  Not exactly health food, but it was quick, easy and good!  

Until next time...
