Random Five Friday

1.  We've had some very nice days although there's very little green to be found yet, but I know it's on the way!  I'm still on a wee little blog break as in cutting back on posting and commenting in order to get some much needed things done. 

2.  I bought a new pair of Clark's shoes, or clogs I guess they are called, the other day at Marshall's.  They were brown, I thought, but when I got them home and looked at them more closely, I realized they were burgandy.  Darn.  I don't need burgandy shoes!   Anyway, I took them back and did a little browsing and found a nice leather purse for 14.99 (original price - $169) that I liked and then in housewares I found a large Lodge iron skillet for 14.99.  After exchanging these for the shoes, I still had $5.00.  Score!  

3.  Some have asked about Sox, the kitten in my last post.  Sox is what I call our foster kitty.  We are still trying to find a home for him and his brother, TJ.  They both are adorable kittens and as much as I love cats, I can't keep them all.  I'm hoping a family with children will take them together.  Sox and TJ are brothers and best buds.  

4.  Speaking of cats...don't you just love it when you are trying to write a blog post and a kitty jumps up into the middle of your computer and your post accidentally gets published almost before you get started?  It's happened to me more than once.

5.  Well, I wasn't going to mention it because when you get to be my age, it's just another day.  But, someone has a birthday today.  I'm actually really thankful to have reached this age and I have to say that most days I don't feel this old.  Sweet BG told me that I don't act look my age.  Isn't he nice?  To celebrate, I'm going out tonight to eat at one of my very favorite places.  Can't wait!
