Most of you know I went in for a surgical procedure for a Butt Lift at the Wal-Mart Medical Center . I didn't have the most pleasant experience. I should've left well enough alone. I wanted to show you how it turned out. I hope this keeps YOU from having this done. Please, PLEASE, PLEASE . . Don't get a Butt Lift at the Wal-Mart Medical Center . You will most certainly regret it !!! |
Sorry I have been MIA but got a chest cold and have been fighting it..I swear at my age I catch everything but men and money ha ha!!
Until next time from my mountain to yours,

An Irishman who had a little too much to drink is driving home from the city one night and, of course, his car is weaving violently all over the road.
A cop pulls him over. 'So,' says the cop to the driver, 'where have ya been?'
'Why, I've been to the pub of course,' slurs the drunk.
'Well,' says the cop, 'it look like you've had quite a few to drink this evening.'
'I did all right,' the drunk says with a smile.
'Did you know,' says the cop, standing straight, and folding his arms across his chest, 'that a few intersections back, your wife fell out of your car?'
'Oh, thank heavens,' sighs the drunk. 'for a minute there, I thought I'd gone deaf.'
Mary Clancy goes up to Father O'Grady after his Sunday morning service, and she's in tears.
He says, 'So what's bothering you, Mary my dear?'
She says, 'Oh, Father, I've got terrible news. My husband passed away last night.'
The priest says, 'Oh, Mary, that's terrible. Tell me, Mary, did he have any last requests?'
She says, 'That he did, Father.'
The priest says, 'What did he ask, Mary?'
She says, 'He said, Please Mary, put down that damn gun....'
It's Saint Patrick's day and an armed hooded robber bursts into the Bank of Ireland and forces the tellers to load a sack full of cash. On his way out the door with the loot one brave Irish customer grabs the hood and pulls it off revealing the robber's face.
The Robber Shoots the Guy Without Hesitation!
He then looks around the bank to see if anyone else has seen him. One of the tellers is looking straight at him and the robber walks over and calmly shoots him also.
Everyone by now is very scared and looking down at the floor.
Did anyone else see my face?' screams the robber.
There is a few moments of silence then one elderly Irish gent, looking down, tentatively raises his hand and says, 'I think me wife may have caught a glimpse.'
Just some of me Irish humor...May all of you have a GREAT St. Patrick's day..
Until next time from my mountain to yours.

Hello guys, Well after a 6 months the bathroom off the kitchen is DONE...I tell you this has been a nightmare..What started out as a broken shower pan ended up being a whole new bathroom..from new studs, sheet rock, electrical, flooring, marble shower, toilet and vanity and vessel sink..So it was not an easy fix nor a cheap one..There was not one thing we could save from the old bathroom..
I adore the crown molding we put up here..The ceiling is painted a very light lilac and the wall are a pewter gray color..
I love this vessel sink..I got it from Lowe's
Not much room on the vanity top...I also ordered this faucet for it as it so reminds me of an old hand pump
The shower curtain and valance I made..I got 4 of these toile drapes from Hospice about 2 years ago for $6.50 and just knew one day I could use them..Just added some black ribbon to the top and bottom..
Love my new floor
It matches the marble shower..the faucets I got from Lowe's also the shower shelves..
The white shower curtain is from Kmart I just added a band of fabric I already had to kinda match the toile valance
I also love the arch above the shower..Crown chandy I got from France
Old iron stool that use to be white that I painted flat black and recovered with more of the toile drapery fabric..
French plant stand also was white..just thought it would be a great place to put some white fluffy bath towels..under the stand is a french basket to hold wash cloths..
Lamp shade I made like 15 years ago..and towel rack I got from Rosemary at " Villabarnes" I made loops for the hand towels so they would hang better
I also made the acid etch mirror about the same time that Moses parted the red sea's..
I also hung a few of my Icarts above the flower stand..I painted the frames flat black and of course I had to add a Bust to the mix..It's kinda of my signature mark ever since Vanna ( *winks) at delusions of grandeur got me started on another collection..ha ha!! Oh *winks* Len said to tell you THANKS- Not
I also love my old Ice tong toilet paper holder..doesn't everyone have one?? I have had this paper holder since chickens had lips..
Glenda at Tootsie Time...send this sweet little cherub to me in 2008..I love him on the back of the toilet..See he got his eyes covered...So go ahead and have a seat he won't tell..
I notice everyone in Blog land seems to add flowers for staging so I added these ha ha!! Guess you could say I put them in a water bowl..
So there you have one half of my new bathroom..and next week I'll show you the other side..
I am joining these parties this week
Thanks so much ladies for hosting these fun parties each week for us..
Until next time from my mountain to yours..
