Before we talk about relationships and how interesting they are, I thought I would share these little boots with you. Ok...so they are not all that little, size 8 to be exact, but think how many flowers can be planted in them this Spring! Good idea, not original but HEY! Still a good idea. I wonder how they do that. A few rocks, some gravel, perhaps some of that foam...oh wait, Tootsie would know. That woman is brilliant with it comes to this stuff...
So..what do you think. Just $1.00 at a garage sale a few weeks ago. I forgot to show them to you. I think it was the only thing I bought that day if I remember right.
Cute? I sat them on the front porch next to the fountain. I hope you like them.
Rose covered ones would have been nice..but these are RED and fit right in.
They make me smile every time I step out onto the front porch. :) Yeah...like this.. :):)
My children are watching my diet...can you imagine being made to eat this gorgeous salad. I am NOT a salad lover (chocolate bread pudding is more my..um..taste) but I ate every single drop of this..and not a whimper out of me! Thanks kids! (Courtesy of Jammin' Bread Bakery, bless their hearts!) My eldest son and his wife own it....so..am I lucky or not.. :)
Would you just look at how earnestly eldest Granddaughter is listening to her Grandma out here in California.
LOVE that Skype thingy! Will Kristy hate this picture I took of her? ..oh probably. But she'll get over it.
She takes life in stride...and I love that about her! Imagine. She is the oldest of the 14 Grands.
Hugs to you Kristy! Grandma loves you and misses you.
I wanted to chat about how amazing relationships are...and I had one certain one in mind. Later.
Hugs and love,
Mona
Sheesh...I get sidetracked SO easily! :)
Do you have froggies in your yard? They will love hopping into those pretty boots! ribbit
ReplyDelete'Lovin' those boots girl...let me tell you, they beat the heck outta the manure stompin' barn boots I wear 'round the Ponderosa!!!
ReplyDeleteBe sure and don't let any water collect in those pretty boots or you'll have misquotes chewin' on your toes! Heeehehehe!
Your sweet granddaughter looks quite intent on your words. She knows a good thing when she hears it!
God bless and have an amazin' weekend beautiful Mona!!! :o)
I am looking for a pair of yellow or red boots for my garden. You found a beautiful pair. Maybe I will be so lucky too.
ReplyDeleteRocks or styrofoam peanuts will work, any thing to help the plant drain.
ReplyDeleteI would be wearing those bad babies in this mud.
The boots are terrific and using them as planters is inspired! Course, they are adorable just as boots too....ummmm, I can wear an 8 (with a little kleenex stuffed in the toes)....just in case you decide not to "plant" them!!
ReplyDeleteLove your boots. They are just the cutest. I would wear them. lol They look great on the porch. How fun to be able to use Skype with the grands. Best fun. Hope you're having a special day. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteSide-Trackin' takes us where we really wanted to go---we just didn't know it yet.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE red boots. And pink ones, and . . .
How do you find all of these neat things at the sales? I go to them and don't find hardly anything. The little boots are cute. Can't wait to see what you plant in them.
ReplyDeleteI love the boots...they will look fantastic with some red geraniums and blue lobelia in them. I'm not Tootsie but I like a lot of flowers. I'm looking forward to hearing what you have to say about relationships!
ReplyDeleteXO,
Jane
I love your tartan boots, Mona. Hope you find more interesting treasures tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteOh Mona! I loved this scatterbrained post - even though you'd not specifically mentioned the one relationship you'd intended covering here, you did touch on a few...your son & DIL, your granddaughter and your daughters :)
ReplyDeleteI love salad and the one you'd had to eat looked yummy! Why are you 'dieting?' You look perfect just as you are!
Your patio/porch garden is so beautiful, Mona. Your plants are the picture of glowing health! And I think the boots fit right in! Don't forget to make a couple of drainage holes in the soles before you plant them up :)
Thank you for leaving such a lovely comment on my blog, Mona - I really am thrilled to know my posts bring you much pleasure!!!
Hugs,
Des xo

Thanks for sharing your great boots find, and the planters idea sounds quite novel. Please do a post when they are blooming, Mona. As for a scattered post - we all have days like this and that's part of the fun at times.

You little old lady you. *exasperated sigh* You know I can't be upset about it but seriously. There wasn't a better shot? ;)
ReplyDeleteLove you to pieces.

These boots are too cute! I like them just standing there. I had some little girl ones, I found in the goodwill. I just stood them in my garden. They only lasted one season in the sun.
ReplyDeleteThey faded and cracked. I hope to find another pair. I put rocks in the bottom of mine, and then fake flowers! lol
Debbie
As usual you have put a smile on my face. I love the boots too!
ReplyDeleteMight want to poke a few holes in the heels and toes. Don't want to over water whatever beautiful plants you put in those adorable boots. kt
Kristy...no..sorry..I only took one. Anyway..I think it's cute. Office, what office? Oh, you mean the place where my brilliant and beautiful Greats are allowed to express themselves?

Just read your today's comment. You are so sweet...that is why I nominated you for the Irresistibly Sweet Award (#139-YIPPPPPEEEEEEE! LOOKEY WHAT I GOT!)...when you didn't pick it up I assumed you were one of those who got so many awards that you no longer accepted them. It's yours anyway, because it fits you so well.
ReplyDeleteAND MOST IMPORTANTLY I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY SEPTUAGENERIAN BLOGGING! I AM HAPPY TO FIND THAT I AM NOT. NO WONDER YOUR BLOG RESONATES SO WELL WITH ME! kt
Talk about scatterbrained...i forgot that one of the reasons I popped in this morning was to tell you that my tattoo is a cross with a red robe over the cross beam. Now I am forever marked for Christ! kt
