The dog has fleas et al.

The dog has fleas, among other issues. 

So I thought I'd show you some of the favourites I've amassed on etsy.






Policeman puzzle of propaganda proportions.







Bow tie for my boy.




A Paddle. Sometimes you need a paddle.When you're up the river, for instance.






Reversible skirt. That's two skirts in one skirt.




 

Fabulous.

    Hey MMMC, this is a great selection from Etsy. Something for everyone. You should get those booties....

    I just read the inscription on that paddle. Cracks me up. So me. Maybe I should get it and wave it in front of Jason. xx

    Sooooo ... does that mean you've bought these & have totally blown your self-imposed "Year of Not Purchasing Any Needless Items Off the Internet, Particularly From Overseas" embargo?
    For some reason, those shoes remind me of my Year 2 teacher from 1976. She was very MMMC!

    No wonder you've been quiet this week - you've been very busy. Were they all for free? I don't know what I like the most. All of them!!

    Dear Carmel,
    I think you have had a shopping frenzy... great! I've been to the real Bauhaus in Dessau and visited some of the houses, which are from Walter Gropius - its really fantastic to be IN "Haus Fieger" or "Kornhaus" right at the Elbe.

    But you've amassed such shoesies and foxy booties as well...and the Hippie-dresses...sigh - when will you wear them?
    xo Ariane.

    I had that daisy pin in turquoise, the jumper/sweater, and the reversible skirt. Man, do I feel old.

    Dear Everyone,
    I've bought nothing! It's all just a wish list to divert my attention from the cost of ineffective flea control etc medication.

    Lovely wishlisting. Perhaps you can do what I do which is 'lose' clothes almost as soon as I've bought them, then rediscover them about a year later. It's like getting something new every time! But kind of annoying when you realise you could have been wearing the forgotten item during all the intervening time.
    Hope all is going well, other than fleas.

    Nothing? Wow! You're good. Sorry about the fleas.
    I'm scratching just thinking about it. And I'm itching to get my hands on that floor length floral frock.

    What a lovely diversion. Etsy is a labyrinth I should not enter.
    Heres a tip - I purchased flea tablets from Woollies and they worked in a day!

    poor noodle.
    I love to pretend I am shopping too. I confess I have a folder on my computer where I stock all the pictures of the stuff I pretend I have bought. Clever, uh? It works. I feel rich nad my bank account is safe. Then every now and then i buy something from that list for real, and it's a double pleasure.

    I saw those enamel pins on Esty this past Saturday and lusted over them for a minute! I also had to fight to gain control over my self-control when I found not 1, but 3 lovely vintage floral hats!
