don't shoot me..................


i forgot to post thursday for my own show and tell! lol good grief! so here goes. i want to make a tree like this!! i just love it!!! it is a barbed wire tree!!! i think it would be so cool to have on a porch. i can't remember who it actually belongs to so if you know, let me know!! i want to give them credit.

yesterday was a very busy day. spent some time in the yard and took some folks to go grocery shopping. they are people from an apt. complex down the road and they don't have a car. my dad has given me a passenger van, so i offered to give them a ride. i can't afford to do it all the time but the closest place to pick up groceries within walking distance is at the bottom of our hill and its a convenience store/gas station. this is where i seen them at and they were complaining about the prices. i about fell over- $5.01 ( including tax) for a gallon of milk!! thats just crazy!! i had already called out city auditors office on them a while ago. we were only getting 7/10's of a gallon for the price of a gallon of gas. totally ridiculous!!
anyways, we didnt get back till late in the evening and i was so tired.
so, what are you doing today?
i am going to get the house cleaned up and head to the thrift store. maybe i will find some cool goodies.
hugs, kim

    Well, Kim, you know what I'm doing...lol.I'm trying to get the kids around so we can get out of here and get the things we need. AND I need to stay away because the mess will drive me CRAZY! It will all be better in about 24 hours, I think.....

    Have a great day!

  4. I love your tree!! I saw one kind of like it in a webshots album. Theirs looked like it was from a wholesale store, not homemade(better). :) I think they called their a memory tree and put their cards and and little notes from their loved ones on there. :) But I really like your with your ornies! Hope you have a great weekend!

  8. That tree is so neat. I would probably seriously injure myself if I tried to make anything out of barbed wire. Maybe heavy gloves would be helpful?

    Are you also on the CS forum?

  12. Hi Kim, It is Tuesday evening...I was just checking e-mails & a few blogs, among them Peggy at "The Simple Woman" to see who she matched me up with for the "Summer Swap"...& I saw your name. I went straight to your blog to visit & saw that you too love primitive folkart pieces, sewing, etc. ...many of the things I too enjoy!...I think this "swap" will be so much fun!...Would you mind getting back to me with a little more about yourself?...color preferences, collections, likes, dislikes,etc.? Would love to make sure what I send, will be something you will truly love! Have a great evening!...Hope to hear from you soon! Glad we're partners!.....Heidi :)
