Gunpowder and Lead

Only 19 more minutes left in my workday!! Whoo hoo! What to do to kill the time? If I look at another file of medical records, I will most definitely go insane! It brings me back to my post around this time last year, "Summertime Blues." Knowing that I get to go have some fun in the sun and hear the Embers play over at North Hills this evening does not exactly help this situation either. Every minute seems like an hour, Gah.

Anyways, Prior to my decison to enter into the blog world on this tortrious Thursday afternoon, I was perusing through the world of Facebook and good ole' Miranda Shelton had posted a link to some wedding pics on Junk Gyspy Co. Blog. They helped decorate for her and Blake's wedding. I scrolled through the blog, and found something I like, well, I'm acutally kinda obsessed with it.

First, I have to explain my unusual obsession. Growing up, I was surrounded by animals, mostly horses. I spent many a' early mornings and evenings being sure the horses' bellies were full. We always reused large tin restaurant cans to ration a horse's feed scoop amount. Everytime I see one of those cans, I just think: horse feed!! Now, any memory from being young and out with the horses makes me smile.

Secondly, I find guns to be very cool. They remind me of Turkey Shoots, Skeet Shooting, or just the sound of being in the country and hearing that the next door neighbor's wild grandson out in the field shooting beer cans instead of working like he's supposed to be! Actually shooting them is pretty fun too, although I can't seem to master anything other than a '22- I'm working on it though!

Okay, now, third, I love decorating-- especially with junk you can find around the house (or barn ).

So, what could possibly be involve tin cans, guns and decorating?!?!? Well here it is! Just in time for 4:30 too... I'm out!
