Top of the Morning to you!
Meet Lady Cora and Mrs. Patmore my presents from my Alicia and Monkey George.
Two new additions to my Family.
Now if Mrs. Patmore turns out to be a boy.
She may be Robert Crawley instead.
Why Lady Cora and Mrs. Patmore?
They are my two favorite characters from the Downton Abbey.
Who are your favorites?
They are still a bit nervous.
Only a few whistles.
I can't wait to hear them singing and whistling away.
We had parakeets when my gang was young but
seems so long ago.
Any tips would be appreciated.
Now to just keep Wolfie away.
Here are some of the treasures I found last week.
I have a small collection of these tin lunch boxes.
How many does it take to call a collection?
I now have four.
Fun to collect and put to use.
How cool is that chalkboard .
I remember having something similar as a girl.
New little chippy Roo's and spools for my thread box.
So today is a Whole Lotta Love for new friends and new treasures.
A Whole Lotta Woolie Love to you Friends!

Top of the morning to ya! I love the lunch . I need to find one of those... Typing with one hand right now. I love Mrs. Pattemore too!!! I am a fan of her, Mrs. Hughes, and Mr. Carson. Of Course, the Dowager. I like all of the dry wit! Did you watch this new season? Ugh. That's all I have to say so as not to be a spoil sport.

Trace did you see the special on HGTV this weekend about where they film DOWNTOWN ABBEY? It was fascinating!!!! I have not seen the show but was really into the history of it.
Enjoy your day Trace "Fat TUESDAY"

I love Maggie Smith in anything she does but I have grown to love her character Violet Crawley, she is a pip! I also have also always liked Elizabeth McGovern and she is wonderful as Cora.
I also love Carson, poor fellow has to handle all of them and just about everything! As well as Mrs. Hughes. And Bates…he just breaks my heart with his sad life. I do also like Anna. The villains are good ones…Love to hate them, well, a strong dislike-O'Brien and Thomas.
We got season 3 and will hopefully start watching it in a couple of days.
LOVE your sweet Budgies! Was that a surprise? They are beautiful. I had a pretty blue one when I was a teenager, Benny.
Happy Tuesday!
Aw, cute little birds! What a sweet gift.
You have a collection my dear! It only takes 3. =] I only have one so I'm still a little ways from having my own collection of them, hehe. Love that chalkboard! I have 4 old school desks and love to find old school supplies for them. I've been looking for a chalkboard like that but haven't found anything yet, great find! I always pick up the old wooden spools too. They just fascinate me... all old sewing notions do. Great pieces Trace... I'm ready to go garage saling!!
Oh Granny Tee how cool!! I had a parakeet growing up I lOVED him. He was irish like me n my mom. He was green and his name was Clancey. I went away on a vaction with my mom n step-dad, my grandma had watched him for me and he died!! She flushed him down the toilet on me!! I cried n cried!! She said he had germs!! I wanted to bury him!!! They are smart and fun birds. Sim says I can't have one. Sad face. LOVE your goodies. That chalkboard is cool. Keep us posted on your love birds!! XOXO Love Fran.
Ohhh, I have been gone and I missed wishing you a Happy B-Day! I am glad to see that you had a grand birthday with lots of goodies. Your little birds are adorable. Hopefully Wolfie will just watch them. Keep him well fed though just in case. I am enjoying your posts Trace. You make my day, when I can catch up. Blessings!
I don't know why you inspire my stories, but it seems I have enough to tell. We always had birds growing up. My mother loved them so much. Their sweet whistles filled our home. I knew no one else to have birds. We had one (my mother's last) that was soooo noisy. It would not shut up:) It was a joke to all of us though!! We laughed and laughed. She let the birds out from time to time to ride on her shoulder. Then one day, her last bird flew out the open door. Never to be seen again. She was so upset she never got another. I bet my gilrs would love a pair of birds. Your's are so pretty. What a lovely gift. I can tell your family loves you very much.
