I know there are some breeds that don't shed as much, but we love our Annie girl and don't mind (too much!) that she's fluffy.Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-40629628726454409332012-10-15T06:51:48.137-07:002012-10-15T06:51:48.137-07:00It was an ugly game, Joy.

You'd think with all the brushing I do, there wouldn't be any left to get on the couch, chairs, beds, or stove top! ;) It really is everywhere, but at least it will slow down (the shedding, that is) in the next few months. That is, if we actually have a cold winter.<br /><br />I'm thinking about getting a small Keurig to keep at work for a quick cuppa. I know I should buy coffee from our cafe, but I love the convenience and flavors of the K-cups.Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-62470924614865601592012-10-15T06:47:30.111-07:002012-10-15T06:47:30.111-07:00Thanks, Kay!

Probably should've done that before running the vacuum cleaner yesterday. Oh, well. ;)<br /><br />I agree. Amy & her honey are very cute and suit each other so well. Can't wait to see them next month...<br /><br />I was just thinking about that headboard (there's also a footboard with my mom's name engraved in it) and all the states it's been to. Oh, and it's been to Canada, as well! I think it's only been broken once in all the moves.<br /><br />Glad you like the "natural" shot. Wish I could say I enjoy that stuff, but I prefer Splenda in my coffee and have the other on hand for guests. Or when I'm feeling like I should do better.Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-51916476644089716132012-10-15T06:41:21.271-07:002012-10-15T06:41:21.271-07:00I'm not doing as well with the list for Octobe...I'm not doing as well with the list for October, Julie.

I didn't realize that! Yep, Leon's is great. We live around the corner (up the street from Sheridan Elem.) and it's wonderful to be able to take a quick walk to the market for last-minute items. It's a bit too pricey for our weekly shopping, but we try to shop there at least once a week. I would hate to see it disappear.<br /><br />We don't shop at Ideal very often. I believe the guys who own Leon's bought it earlier this year.Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-62876448175267149072012-10-07T18:06:42.361-07:002012-10-07T18:06:42.361-07:00I so loved all of these!
