Here in the lovely deserts of New Mexico we stack tumbleweeds, spray paint them white and put a hat on top to look like snowmen; or green to look like Christmas trees... and then string lights on them. But I don't do that.Flutterbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13208928086177298767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7922232.post-42301283860151255502008-05-01T10:49:00.000-05:002008-05-01T10:49:00.000-05:00Whoops, I mean I wrote a paragraph and then delete...Whoops, I mean I wrote a paragraph and then deleted it because I thought the post was getting too long.<BR/><BR/>Holy shit, I just realized something: I've inflicted the information on you anyway.<BR/><BR/>You really can't shut me up.Poppy B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01532483657395207695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7922232.post-86488318102763494812008-05-01T10:48:00.000-05:002008-05-01T10:48:00.000-05:00Don't be silly, Melissa!

As you can probably tell, half of my Christmas ornaments came from trash week. <BR/><BR/>And I wrote a paragraph about how, the first year we lived here, I grabbed a rocking horse for my kids. We used it for years and then put it back out. Someone else came along and got it. Listen, that rocking horse is making the rounds. At this point, he'll never end up at the glue factory, and that's a good thing!<BR/><BR/>We also had a Little Tikes basketball hoop and a toy kitchen. People really do put out seriously good shit. <BR/><BR/>Except me, that is.Poppy B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01532483657395207695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7922232.post-72726904923957908462008-05-01T09:45:00.000-05:002008-05-01T09:45:00.000-05:00I am ashamed.

I admit to crossing the street to claim the collection of terra cotta pots from the old lady's house across the street while her daughters emptied it out in preparation to send the old lady to the nursing home. I went back to that curb for a metal picnic bucket and a bench.
