    People do grow on you!,..when i was in the garden center buying that expensive flower pot i was thinking how would everyone here think it looked in the garden,..i was pleased when everyone said they liked it,..and i am sure if it were the wrong pot for the garden i would be told likewise.

    In the Supermarket tonight they were giving away free Tea Caddies,..just what i needed.

    This was Junk,..a neighbor asked me did i have any use for a weird table?,..as soon as i looked at it i thought of Cheryl,..i just had to smile to myself,..at how people far away come into mind,..but i took the table,..sooo handy for when i use my laptop as there are no obstacles like legs to get in the way of my knees,..where the two legs meet the floor there are two bars running along the floor.
    Oh the laptop in not kept in the front room!,..but in the bedroom,..the man cave!.

    I love your tea caddie!!! That is soooo cool 8)
    Great deal on the table! I had to agree with you when you said "How people far away come into mind" because I was standing in the customer service line at WalMart this evening watching people as I waited. There was a lady a few carts ahead of me and for some reason I thought "She makes me think of Dooley" I've only seen Laura's photo once I think, but that lady reminded me of her :-D Then when I was at BI-Mart this gal passed me and I thought of Daisybeans :-D Guess you are all on my mind tonight :D

    I totally agree -- I think of different people all the time! I feel like I have a lot more friends even though you're far away....

    That is a weird table! But sure looks handy. And being associated with junk.... well... I'll just take that as a compliment! :-D
    And I know what you all mean about how some of the 'Stewbies pop into our minds. Like when I saw that pepper plant with the nice round "balls" and I instantly thought of Toni and her little prank here. And one of my cousins was talking about his chickens and I couldn't help but think of Jane and her new "babies". And here lately, anytime I see a rose... I wonder if Philip has one like it. :)

    OK why don't I have neighbours who want to give cool things away? :( Our supermarkets don't give away tea caddies either. :'( Not that I'm in the least bit envious of that lovely little table 'cause I'm not so there. :p ( Alright I'm telling fibs but don't tell anyone)

    "one mans trash is another mans treasure" I found the perfect "table"(a cobbed together work bench) setting out in the tree lawn yesterday... great height for a potting bench. :) So I picked it up and brought it home.

    That tea caddy could be used to store or carry lots of different things since it is probably air and water tight, that's a pretty neat freebie

    The table is interesting and perfect for what you are using it as.
