:::Unbelievable Paddington Pillowcase:::
Side A
Side B
I *love* Paddington. The illustration on this pillowcase is unreal - you should really go to Flickr and view those two pictures at the largest size. The detail is awesome! I have a very special place in my heart for him. My obsession started when my brother Thom brought home a wee Paddington Bear for me from Germany when I was a little girl. I still have him! I used to bring him to all of my dance performances for good luck. I'll have to take a picture of him for the blog someday.

:::My favorite find of the day - Cross Stitched Table Cloth:::
It's stained and has a few little holes, but I couldn't resist. I love having friends over for tea and this was just too sweet. A little TLC and I'm sure it will look great!
I bought all of that plus two tablecloths not pictured for $9. I think I made out like a bandit!

I've missed posting here, but I've literally been too tired and creatively zapped to post. Every post in the last week would've read like this:
Eat, Dance, Go to Work, Work on Dance Stuff, Sleep
Eat, Dance, Go to Work, Work on Dance Stuff, Sleep
Eat, Dance, Go to Work, Work on Dance Stuff, Sleep
Life is good, but exhausting lately! Sheesh!
Today I'm grateful for supportive, lovely friends and family. I'm grateful for hitting snooze and snuggling with my hub for just five more minutes. What are you grateful for today?

Holy Moses! Are all your stars aligned or what? I can't believe you got all of that for $9, and I can't believe how cool each of the finds are!
How in the world did you get all that for $9! That's impressive! I think I need to hit the thrift store today too. It's been too long since I went.
Maybe a couple very special blankets, quilt-like, could be made from the AWESOME Paddington pillowcase?
I discovered your blog through Resurrection Fern (I think) and L.O.V.E. your beach photo shoot. Airborne Splits is on my computer as inspiration to me.
I am in awe of your life changing attitude and at 48 years old am taking to heart all your dreaming of becoming the person you truly are. I've been denying a big portion of who I am for a long time and can feel the desire to be ME coming to the surface in a strong way.
YOU GO GIRL!
I love vintage linens. My latest thrift obsession.
I am thankful that I got to see that Paddington bear pillowcase - WOW!! I lived in Germany for a little while as a girl, and got introduced to Mr. Bear there - then, the Sweetie and I were in London, and stayed at a hotel at Paddington Station, and actually got to see a statue of the Bear! so cool . . .
