Kelly O'Seventies

My name is Kelly. How could I NOT post a blog on St. Patty's Day? C'mon!

So I was strolling down 70s lane the other night and "Tickle" popped into my noggin. Gals...do you remember Tickle? It was the coolest deo EVERRRRRR. I loved, loved, loved it! That just opened the floodgates to my favorite things of my tween years! The men I loved, the purses I adored, the pom poms I couldn't get enough of, the belts that pinched my waist but looked oh so chic!

So to help you stroll with me...I've posted pics of some of my VERY faves! Enjoy! Of course, I've left out pics of like hermit crabs, sea monkies, the rubiks cube....but you get the picture! And I really don't want to hear from you if this stuff is before your time. Really, I don't.

My Treasure!

I LOVE treasure! Actually, who DOESN'T love treasure? The real question is: What is treasure to you? What I see as treasure may be someone else's trash, or vice versa. Either way, I found something! And I'm excited about it. Of course, Jim is rolling his eyes once again at my grand ideas. But that's okay...it's what keeps me going.

The other day I was helping Jim in the barn with a calf/cow pair. My ADD kicked in and I started musing around inside. I saw something through one of the side slats of the barn and started fishing. My eyes got bigger and bigger as I pulled an old (what I assume to be) barn vent out of the slats in the wall. Woohoo, do the treasure dance!!!!! I was like a kid on Christmas morning. It was BEAUTIFUL. I immediately started thinking of what I could do with it. Within 2 minutes I had completely figured out a use for this wonderful thing. Now I have a project this weekend!!

I'm sharing the "before" photo with you because I'm so excited!

Question: will Kansas ever warm up? Eight ball says: Most Definitely
