FOR THE LOVE OF JUNK

SOME WOMEN DREAM OF BEAUTIFUL HOMES AND PERFECTION. SOME DREAM OF THE DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH, OUTCAST ITEMS, THE TATTERED, THE CRAZED, THE RUSTED AND SOMETIMES DISCARDED TREASURES. IM A MEMBER OF THE SECOND GROUP. I'M A JUNKER FOR LIFE!

I'M A MOTHER!

DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE? I SEE CUTENESS, SWEETNESS, SOFTNESS AND LOTS OF LOVE.  I INTRODUCE TO YOU THE NEWEST MEMBER OF THE RAMOS HOUSEHOLD. LIKE EVERYTHING WORTH HAVING HE CAME TO ME WITHOUT ANY NOTICE, IT JUST HAPPENED. A DEAR FRIEND OF MINE CAME BY THE SHOP YESTERDAY AND ASK FOR PAPER FOR HER BABIES.  I INQUIRE, WHICH BABIES? WELL, SHE IS THE PROUD OWNER OF THE MOST WONDERFUL BISHON FRISE BABIES AS 4 WEEKS AGO SHE BECAME A GRANDMA. WHEN SHE MENTION THE KIND OF DOGS THE FIRST THOUGHT IN MY MIND WAS "EXPENSIVE" BECAUSE THIS LITTLE DARLINGS CAN BE. WELL, STORY SHORT, SHE GOT TWO LITTLE ONES THAT NEEDED A MAMA. I CALLED MY HUSBAND AND HE RELUCTANTLY ACCEPTED. THIS MORNING I TOOK MY MOM TO MEET HIM AS GUESS WHAT? MY MOM ADOPTED THE SIBLING, SO NOW WE HAVE TWO NEW MEMBERS TO OUR FAMILY. I'M TOTALLY IN LOVE AND SO IS MY MOM.


THEY CAN HARDLY STAND AND IT WAS SO CUTE HOW THEY USED THEIR TUMMIES TO GET AROUND.

                                     MY HEADLESS  MOM HOLDING HERS

                               MY BABY FEEDING AS PAPA WATCHED. THE OWNER DOES A POODLE HAIRCUT, I PREFER TO LEAVE THEIR HAIR GROW LONGER FOR THE USUAL FRISE LOOK, I CALLED IT A POWDER PUFF FACE.


                                                 THE REST OF THE GANG.
 I HAVE TO START  A TRUST FUND SINCE ALL MY MONEY IS GOING TOWARDS GROOMING. I WAS TOLD EVERY 2 MONTHS AT LEAST. I DON'T THINK I EVER SPEND THAT KIND OF MONEY IN MY OWN GROOMING BUT I THINK HE IS WORTH EVERY PENNY I WILL EXPEND IN HIM. ANOTHER DREAM COME TRUE, GOD REALLY SPOILED ME. I GET MY WANTS AND NEEDS AND FOR THAT I'M SO THANKFUL. ONE LAST THING, IT WILL BE ANOTHER MONTH BEFORE HE IS READY TO COME HOME. I DO NOT HAVE A NAME YET. I TAKE SUGGESTIONS AND TESTIMONIALS OF OTHER OWNERS OF BISHON FRISES OUT THERE. WHAT SHOULD I NAME HIM? WHAT DOES HE LOOK LIKE TO YOU? BLESSINGS, MARTA.

Congratulations on your new baby! Maybe you should go with something french for a name? Or you could just name him Fred!

You have been a busy busy lady. I can't wait to see your shop when she comes all together, it's going to be amazing. I wish I lived closed so I could shop!

aww, such sweet fluffy babies! i named my last five pups Clyde, Fritz, Guido, Scoot and Sally--grandson calls her Elizabeth.maybe there is a girl by that name in his school:D the only pups left are Scoot and Guido,lol.

i love the home decor you're working on, everything is great....love those suitcases. it's so hard to find flat ones down here :D love the screened in porch. now i wish mine was screened in since the last few years of deer flies and mosquitoes and other biting bugs keep us inside most of the time!

Congratulations. I am glad you said they are still with mom. I saw the picture and said those babies are not old enough to be on their own!
I agree with you on the longer, fluffy cut.
We always live with an animal a few days and the names seem to arrive based on personality.

Well when we got our dog everyone else wanted to name him Shadow but I thought NIGHTMARE fit better since getting a dog was one of my nightmares. Of course he was a black lab mix so both names fit better than for a little white ball of fluff.
I translated lots of junking words into french and nothign really works for a dog name. use chic means shabby chic. I think use is pronounced something like oo-say
