Tunes with Tami and the Tuck Tuck

I found my holy grail of the baby percussive instrument for Tunes with Tami on Tuesdays with Mila. A Melissa & Doug toy with cutesy faces painted on each color. 

When I brought my bag of Grandma goodies, I had Mila on my lap and the bag on the side of my chair. Last week, Mila kept leaning over wondering what new item was going to come out of the bag (bubbles, books, and baby instrument toys). 

There is a Corgi our lives. Tucker or Tuck Tuck as I like to call him. 

I could not pass up this book, The Great Corgiville Kidnapping. Another Goodwill purchase for the kid library.

This pretty piece was found at Re:Visions, a thrift store benefitting Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northern California. The artwork is priced in the affordable range so this $50 oil on canvas has joined my room dedicated to artwork. 

This also replaces a piece I missed out on a few years ago. There was an oil on canvas of grape hyacinth, similar to my new piece but much bigger. The up country thrift had it priced at $150. I drove up to half-off day to get that painting. When I inquired, I was told that painting was not on half price sale. I didn't buy it. One of those passed-it-by regrets but this picture more than makes up for it. 

I complained about readjusting my life, but now I am busy each night of the week. I couldn't be happier. I am a Girl on the Go!👵Country line dancing tomorrow night.🤠
