  Flaunt It Friday: Neighbor Nightmares
  Flaunt It Fridays (2)

  Yesterday's post provides insight as to the impetus of this week's challenge. So come on, darlings!  Pull up a chair, grab a cup of java and tell me all about the worst neighbor you have ever had. Yes, I want all the juicy details! Here's mine! She clearly takes the cake and has most certainly started off on the wrong foot with me. I'm considering a ten foot brick wall as a welcome home present when she comes back from next year's winter migration! That and a dozen or so felled trees from our side of the property line.

  Neighborhood News & Flaunt It Preview
  Neighborhood News, Flaunt It Fridays, life as it is (6)

  “It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood, a beautiful day for a neighbor. Would you be mine? Could you be mine?” because the one I’ve got has turned out to be a first class bitch! Late Tuesday night as sat in the kitchen enjoying the first balmy evening breezes through the open window and listening to the spring leaves shaking away the last drops of that afternoon’s deluge, I was startled by an unnerving sound. Something remotely resembling an indescribable snap, crackle, crash came wielding from the darkness of our yard, followed by a frightening pop and pitch blackness. “It figures” ...

  Flaunt It Friday: Summer Upon Us!
  Flaunt It Fridays, Uncategorized (10)

  Summer is one of my favorite times of the year. A New Englander by birth, I have always savored the sultry months and their sweet respite from dark, chill and rain. I cannot fight the excitement of the later sunny days of spring, as, surrounded in a luxury of green and blossoms, I sigh and thank God for the changing seasons, in spite of my allergies. Like a school kid delirious with spring fever I am completely distracted from life’s disturbing challenges and my attention drawn entirely to the natural world. Apart from (or part and parcel of, perhaps) my love ...

  Flaunt It Friday Preview: Summer Upon Us!
  Flaunt It Fridays (3)

  Despite the bouts of rain and chill that seem to pass through our home here in Connecticut, I can't help but be excited by the prospects of Summer and all it brings. Perhaps this week we should spend a post on our favorite Summer activities/what you like best about Summer? No objections? Great. So flaunting some Summer fun it is!  See you here tomorrow.

  Flaunt It Friday: Bargains Galore
  Flaunt It Fridays, shopping (7)

  This week's Flaunt It Friday idea comes to us from Candi over at All Day Night.  She has been meaning to blog about some of her bestest thrift store finds and thought that you all might have some too. So this week we are gathering to post about our latest bargain, sale or thrift store steals. Don't forget to link up, involve a few of your bloggy friends and take some photos, girls. Now you tell me, who doesn't love a bargain?!  Shopping is a favorite pastime of my own, so bargain hunting has most certainly been one of the longest standing ...

  Flaunt It Friday: Nicknames
  Just For Fun, Flaunt It Fridays (8)

  I’ve been called by many names in my almost forty years of life. Some by choice. Others by obligation. Some nice. Some not-so-nice.  Some just plain wrong!  All in all I haven’t really been bothered by the variations or the variety. On the contrary, variety is the spice of life! Nicknames are a funny thing, though. Sometimes a person can get stuck with a rather unpleasant one, and, as we all know, nothing sticks like a nickname, especially in high school! So tell us, with which nicknames have you been addressed over the years and by whom? Which of them has proven ...
