Happy Toile

It has been very grey here lately and I'm finding it difficult to get motivated. Everything seems do dreary and depressing. This weekend while on one of my many thrift store trips, I found this little purse. Now I am NOT a purse person, but I just had to have this one. I love toile and it just seemed "happy". I knew it was meant to be mine when I asked the clerk how much it was and she said $1.99. Not bad for a brand new Liz Claiborne :0) Long story short, I have to say I feel better. The power of toile, who knew?

Kitty Glitter

Today as I was scooping the cat box (probably one of my least favorite things to do) My 4 year old insisted on helping. As I tried to scoop and explain why that was not a good idea she shot me a look of totaly disappointment.
"but Mom, I want to help you with the kitty glitter"
I still said no, but I have to admit, it might make scooping the "glitter" not so awful in the future.
