I'm a bad blogger lately, BUT not because of any fault of mine. My computer finally died and Rich has kindly lent me his laptop, until I can get a new one. The bad news is that all your comments sent to that email are gone, but the good news is that I can post again... right?? ;)
Anyhoo.... I won a giveaway! The very lovely and oh-so-fabulous Tracie at My Petite Maison sent me all of this....
So for now, I'll leave you with a giggle at my expense and don my new crown....
hugs and love,
rue

At least you can still read comments on your blog site, right? Best wishes with your computer prob.
Nikki...who still wants an iphone, bad. Have I said that already?!
Hello Rue, it is so nice to hear from you. I feel bad about not getting around to all my friends these past weeks. Traveling, camping, grand kids week all ran together and my visiting has suffered. I do love your crown and I am happy you decided to keep blogging. What a nice giveaway to win. How much fun is that, to win such fun gifts? Enjoy them dear Rue.
Tonight I am writing this comment in Lexington, Ky. We are here visiting an elderly aunt and cousin whom we love very much and seldom see. Monday we are heading for Kansas City for several days. This summer we have traveled way too much. I just long to be home to STAY. After this trip we will be done traveling for this summer. sigh.
I love your photo in your crown Rue. You have beautiful eyes. No wonder your hubby is crazy about you. A fun photo.
I will say goodnight and get some sleep.
Until next time my friend,
Love, Jeanne
Love the tiara! Hope you are having a wonderful weekend and that you get a new computer soon!
Hugs,

Hope you get your pc fixed soon. Mine is on it's last leg too. But I have my son's old laptop as a back up.
Rue,
I just love your new heading on your blog. It's so clever but I could have never thought of that.

Oh My Gosh ! You have the BEST most PERFECT EYEBROWS !! How do you get them like that !??
YOu do have perfect eyebrows. I was just about to say that but Patricia beat me to it!
What a great gift you won! Oh, I do love the extra surprises too!
I have to say that you have the most incredible eyes, but I'm sure you hear that from Rich all the time. If not, then he should be telling you! lol
Sorry about the computer. I have been having computer issues for some time. Looking forward to your next post.
