It's late Saturday night/early in the wee hours of the morning Sunday-depending on how you look at it...and I am playing a little bit of catch up here on my blog. I wanted to get these two posts in before heading to bed. I am back dating them on the date they should have been published....even though in reality..I am , as usual, behind it seems. I hit Wednesday and it seems the rest of the week is a blur at times. Anyway....
Below is "Blue Bear". My husband and I were engaged, summer of 1986. He got a new job that he needed to go away for training for. He was going to be gone a month. He returned each weekend to see me and his parents. (even though it was a good three to four hour drive one way). On the first weekend he returned, he brought me this Gund Bear. I named him Blue Bear because I was so very blue when my husband -to be was away....The name stuck and he is a cuddly reminder of that period of time in our history.

A Cold Pup
on a cold day
We went from Fall to Winter in a matter of days
It sleeted today even for a short time..
Bayley got a haircut Saturday...this is all the hair he has left right now...
He is wrapped in his blanket (which used to be my comforter until he claimed it once upon a time)
Snuggled up, he took his morning nap in my sons room, looking just like this...

Last week, as I mentioned in this post , we were still recovering from a cold that just would not let go. I still feel a bit sniffly...but we are all much better. Had I posted for TIMHT last week, you would have probably seen this collection of characters as my submission: Mucinex, Benedryl, Excedrine and "The Vicks". The submission would have been the dramatic conclusion to the cliffhanger submitted the week before affectionately known as The Vaporizer!
But now, things are better, I can move on and share a real submission (or you can say, you are getting two for the price of one this week)...

Oh and just so you know....From The Mud Puddle isnt the only thing I've ignored....
Yes, this is a screen shot of my yahoo email box...and below a screen shot of my yahoo spam box.
I know what to do with the spam....but it's going to take me a few days to weed out my regular yahoo box....that is for certain!
I guess you could say that I am a little behind on my blogging here.
Seems it's been a long couple of weeks. As my family and I still try to pull out of the cold that has had it's grip on us the past few weeks, I could have posted something else related (to my cold) for TIMHT, but decided that I might be pushing the envelope to take a picture of my Vicks salve for last week's submission. Perhaps this week though...we'll see if the Vicks and I are still BFF's.
Fall has taken hold of our temperatures and I actually have said the words, "I am cold" in the past couple of days. I love this time of year, watching the leaves change colors and finally feeling cold again after a long hot humid southern summer.
My car's battery died today. We hope at least that is all that is wrong anyhow.
That's my news, what's yours?

It started with my daughter Hannah last Thursday/Friday-and then boom-Monday the rest of us (husband, son and I) fell to what I am refering to right now as the crud.

For this week's edition of TIMHT, I am following MSM's lead by sharing some of my valuable artwork. This piece is displayed in my bedroom. It was composed by my son Christopher when he was 3 years old. It is a self portrait. It hangs crooked in the frame. At first it was straight, but over time, it slid. I couldnt decide whether to fix it or leave it since leaving it adds to the innocent nature of the piece. His artwork is done in Crayolas. This is probably one of my most favorite of all the pictures he's done in his life.
