Thank you all for the birthday wishes.
All of you here at CC, have been such a gift to me the last couple of years. You have brought me joy, laughter, introspection, and even some tears...I wouldn't trade a minute of it!!
Much love and many hugs to all of you!

Thanks Everybody!!
I had a wonderful day! We delivered gifts, Christmas shopped, hit Sam's, got a wonderful manicure, and had a wonderful evening with my children, son-in-law, and a friend of my son's, and Runnin' Buddy and her husband. A massage from the D and SinL, a Happy Birthday wine goblet from T's friend which the restaurant washed and poured my martinis into :-), and the most beautiful toilet bowl brush holder(yes, I did mention the other day that I was looking for one....ya just had to be there!! :wink: ) ever from RB and her hubby!!! A fabulous dinner and chocolate souffle for dessert....what more could a woman ask for?

Deb, lemme get this straight. You ASKED for a "beautiful toilet brush holder?" Are you serious? And yeah, you're right, I wasn't there......not sure I would've wanted to be there while you asked for "a beautiful toilet brush holder".
I guess when you get right down to it, I'm perfectly fine with plain jane, ordinary, shitter brush holders.
:whistling:

Eupher, you've been around long enough to know how women are..... :fuelfire: :whistling:
Very few of them are as pragmatic as you or I.

First of all....I did not ASK for a toilet bowl brush holder! (say that 5x's fast .. :-) )
I have been looking for nice bathroom stuff for the powder room that guests use, because I moved the stuff from the powder room at the old house to the hall bath on the 2nd flr cause it went well with a really nice shower curtain that Runnin' Buddy had bought, and decided not to use anymore.
That left me with trying to find "nice" replacement stuff for the powder room.
Being a guy, I'm sure that you don't know how ridiculously expensive that stuff is!! Wastebaskets are somewhere far up from $35, which is just stupid for a bathroom waste basket...in my opinion. I have yet to figure out what the deal is with the wastebaskets being so expensive.
I have lots of blue and white pottery stuff. Some is reallly good stuff and some is really inexpensive - especially after it hits Ross or Marshall's and gets sent to the clearance shelves. :-) I mix it all together. I decided to take the extra soap dish and the kleenex box cover, that I had in old kitchen and use them in the powder room. Recycling so to speak. I needed a waste basket, so I took a big wide-mouthed flower vase/planter that was in the old family room and use it as the waste basket. It still had the price sticker on the bottom - I had gotten it for $5. See the patttern here?
I needed a TBBH, because the floors are hardwood in there, and carrying a nasty TBB from powder room to garage is just yuckky gross. A week or so ago, RB and I were at Ross's and I said if I could find another vase with a wide mouth that was tall enough, I could stick the TBB in it. She looked at me like I was nuts until I told her that since it's pottery, I could just pour bleach in it to clear out the nasty germies. Then she decided it kind of made sense.
She was in Home Goods last week, and saw one that she thought would work. So that's what I got for my birthday!! I was pretty excited about it!
Her husband and M thought I was crazy. My darling son asked her if it was for my ashes, 'cause I wasn't THAT old! :thatsright: My son-in-law rolled his eyes. My daughter and T's friend thought it was a pretty creative idea. And RB was quite pleased with herself in surprising me with something that I had casually mentioned looking for....unless it's in an email or texted to her, she has a retention issue...I tell her it's cause she's blonde. :evillaugh:

Now all I have to do is find a rug for in there to help muffle the sound effects. Don't know why builders either make powder rooms so small that your knees are hitting the door, or the room's big enough for a dance. :thatsright: Between the size of the room, the 9foot ceiling and hardwood flrs, it's like a damn echo chamber. ::) I would have preferred all the extra space in my pantry. :bawl:

OMG that is a gorgeous room! I've been collecting old Willow ware pre-teen...goofy huh? I do love the bath.

Thanks. I recycled the flowers from another bath and leftovers from a huge wedding table arrangement. I get really excited when I can use something I already have for a different purpose. :-)
What color are you collecting? or are you doing several?
I started out with Delft, then was given some and inherited some Royal Copenhagen and Bing&Grondahl. I keep adding to the blue/white with things I find here and there. Have found some neat little Delft pieces at garage sales. I guess the sellers don't know what it is, or don't care. :o I have a couple of things that would be considered BlueWillow, but they aren't the real thing. I also have some of M's mother's dishes that could be, it's the brown stuff. I need to sell it, because it's just sitting in a box and has for about 15 years. :(

I have blue. I was in 7th grade when we first read a story that had an illustration of the father chasing the young couple across the bridge, my grandmother had the pattern on some of her dishes. In later years she gave me the set, mostly the extra stuff like gravy boat, soup tureen, creamer and sugar bowl. My maternal grandfather had an antique shop and gave me several pieces. I'm sad to say that over the years I have few pieces left, and no one to care about what happens to the ones I have when I'm gone. Think I'll contact the cousins and see if there is a youngster that would like those pieces....thanks for reminding me of them.

There's just one thing missing -
A case of Glade odor freshener. After I get done in powder rooms, I go through a can at a time.

The cat litter box isn't in there, too, is it? Stinky the Clown isn't your son? :-)

nope, cat litter boxes are in the bathroom off of my office....on the 3rd floor. (what would be a walkup attic is finished into 2 rooms, a bathroom, and walkin storage)
