My turn to get in the picture

this afternoon we were playing the traditional
flag football game with our neighbors

It wasn’t too crazy this year

neighbor Deb & I were the only girls (adult) to play.
It was FUN!

Thanks to neighbor Todd & Rose for organizing
the football game & the after party.
It was a great day to spend with neighbors and friends!
We love our neighborhood.

Btw – there IS a house for sale in our neighborhood!
act quickly – they don’t last long!

Tuesday 11/16/13
gym time !!!

friend Billy loved his gift of Beef Jerky.
Always a nice surprise.
It’s just fun getting an envelope from Helen

Pumpkin Spice – a new seasonal flavor I tried.
I like Gingerbread better but this is fine for now.

The Thanksgiving donations are STILL coming in.
Great job collecting food for the needy Denise.
btw – donations are collected all year round…..
just sayin’

rescued my nail polish Smokin’ Hot at the salon.
I inadvertently left it there the other day.
I’m glad I took a picture so I could show her the color
when I retrieved it.

animals for the neck in New Hope, PA
~ who needs one?

Called on my customer Nick who owns Logan Inn.
These were the original owners of the Logan Inn.
Their daughter died in Room 6 of the Inn.
It is notorious for being Haunted!

Room 6, also known as Emily’s room is by far is one of the most requested rooms by ghost hunters, thrill seekers and historians.

Mother’s Wine Bar – now Open for business.
Soon to carry my wines – get there today

Do you like the new eyes???

neighbor Denise is still collecting groceries
for the food bank. Thanks for all your help.
It’s not too late to contribute!

just visiting……

the only time we buy Buttercake is if we are going to a party.
that way we can have a slice & hope everyone else
eats the rest.

dog passenger

Chester trying on my glasses

Weasel hoping she is not next

my bird store was having a party.

http://buckingham.wbu.com/

I like getting the bird food here bc it’s always fresh.
They have a high turnover of food.
and they know lots about birds so they can answer
any questions you might have.

It was packed!! the line snaked around the store.
they had some good sales.
