Image
There is alot of great things about living in Atlanta.... From the lovely weather to the cost of living to free highways.... Hear that New Jersey!!! And now we can add to the Mix.... The World's Largest Pottery Barn! Located at Lenox Square Mall in Atlanta I took the Boss over the other day to look for a coffee table for his den.... And while I was there I thought I would take you guys on a tour.... While pulling out my camera from my purse the Boss says.... "Put that away.....you want to get us thrown out"..... Until this lovely young lady appeared and said they encourage picture taking..... Now I know everyone loves the Pottery Barn but your probably sick of getting their catalogs in the mail every 30 seconds but this was a "Retail Eye Candy" Experience.... It's two stories of the most beautiful furniture and accessories around.... It is HUGE.... At daughter's suggestion we bought most of our new furniture from here and we are loving it....especially o...

Great Neighborhood Halloween Idea!!!

Image
For 26 years the only person I knew in my old neighborhood was my good friend Next Door Necie.... Well I did know Jerry the alcoholic next door on the other side..... And let me not forget the religious fanatics across the Cul De Sac that seemed to be running a Half Way House For strays.....and I'm not talking cats..... On any given day the entire cul de sac was filled with pick-up trucks with Campers on the back.... For years we thought they could be those "Traveler" people from the Carolina's..... Anyhoo..... We finally move into a sub-division where it appears the people are Normal..... And after last weekend I am sure of it and very very happy to be here.... What a great idea someone has come up with to celebrate Halloween.... I stopped by my new next door neighbor's house last week And on her front porch sat a Halloween Bag.... When she opened the door I asked her if it was Coming or Going?? She had no idea what it was or how it got there.... So she took it i...

A GRANDPARENTS CONDENSED GUIDE TO DISNEY WORLD

Who hasn't been to Disney World...... The whole world has but I wanted to make sure there were some things You all Might have missed or are unaware of..... Because if there's any kind of bargain or scheme You can bet I am the first in line.... When daughter asked us to go with her and "B" to Disney for "B"s Birthday I was a little apprehensive.... After all at 60 years old with very bad feet and an adversity to the heat It was not my idea of a vacation.... But it was for the girls so we smiled and said..."Of course we will go".... For years when we lived in South Florida we would go every year but we always Stayed off the grounds of the Park as those years were ultra-budget vacations... But we have upgraded from the Days Inn and daughter suggested we stay at one of the Disney properties... As a child daughter always wanted to stay at the Contemporary Hotel with the Monorail that goes through the lobby....But it looks so "business" I on t...
