"you thought I said Shut Up but.....

When my little brother was real little, he got into a habit of saying
SHUT UP to our mama...

She would give him a few swats but it didn't seem to do much good..
One day, I guess she wore his little britches out because he
sure watched his little mouth after that day..

One day, a little later, something happened,
Mom scolded him and he said SHUT UP before he thought....
before she could do anything,
he said...
"I bet you thought I said SHUT UP...
but I said SHUTTER...."
she got so tickled at his fast thinking,
he didn't get his spanking for that one.

O...
and speaking of SHUTTERS...

This is our back doors, leading to my beloved patio...


One day, Mr. Sweet got his ladder out...
my heart starts beating a little bit faster when I see ladders....


 I have always just LOVED shutters...
especially BLACK shutters...

...just seems to ground everything



 Yep....I like the way they pull everything together
and add some crazy architectural interest.....
I think cute things like these shutters really add personality to a space...
and
I love how they highlight those beautiful white French doors.
..had I put white shutters, the doors and shutters would merge as one.
(haha...i act like i know what the heck i am doing...
when actually, I fly by the seat of my pants ALL the time)



 LOVE YA'LL.....bj
oops...forgot to add my parties...

  7. South Park had a running gag like that with the school bus driver (who was a total biatch) and the main characters

    Like one of them was

    "That fat b##tch won't let us"

    "WHAT DID YOU SAY?"

    "I said rabbits eat lettuce"

    "oh ok then"

  12. Dear Lady, they are very "Bad" people... but we know Worse ones... may get rather "Bad"... have not told these other "Big Bads" of current issues... if so, they will deal with things in a very "Unpleasant" manner... that, is What We are trying to Avoid... wish Stacey "Luck"...

  15. Yes that looks great! The shut up story is so cute. I tried to pull a fast one on my mom when I said "butt" to her once. When she wheeled around on me I tried to tell her I was saying it like a cigarette butt. She did not fall for it! :) Those were the days. :)
