 Suzanne has greyhounds, so she's a dog person like I am. Greys are so cool. Such sweet hearts & gentle spirits. But they are also sighthounds, which means they hunt by sight & can get themselves in trouble from time to time! Check out the fun photos on her dog site & the cool photos on her photography site too.
Welcome to Duck Bob. I don't see a blog for you, so if you have one, I'll be happy to share it. Thanks for following along - glad to have you around!
And welcome to Russ Krecklow! Russ is the other half of Russ & Donna, they travel in a ClassC Lazy Daze motorhome & I love following their blog! They named their RV Therapy because she is great therapy for them! http://therapytravels.blogspot.com/

I have a lot to share today. First off, I'll share the red moon pic that I took on Tuesday night. I have better ones from last year, but I'd have to hunt for them, so I'll share the recent one instead. Red Moons are so cool looking! The two stripes running over it are the power lines, which I could not see in the camera at night.

OK, now remember my post on These eyes are watching you on the neighbors big ClassA RV that has eyes painted on it? I also showed you the beginning of their HUGE RV garage, it's nearly finished now & they've had the RV parked over there inside of it. No more storage fees for them as far as keeping it in storage anymore. They will eventually build a home on their lot too, but they wanted to get the garage up first for the RV & probably other items as well. Click on the photos for larger images. Actually, if you click on them, you well see eyes on the rear of the RV as well! 8-}

OK, now for the point of today's blog...command strips. :-((((   They can & DO damages! I've had wallpaper tear because of them, not only did the wallpaper tear, but part of the soft wood that the wall paper is adheared to tore as well. I had to resolve that problem with a plaque to hang my welcome sign off of that I shared in a post in October. So here is what they can also do to the faux wood surface to your RV. Bummer. Now I'll have to find a way to fix it. When I do, I'll share that. I'm thinking of getting the markers that are designed for furniture nicks to cover the spots with. Suggestions are welcomed though! Really, they are! Truly. Ugh! I don't like marks & scuffs & stuch. Such even...

Yep, those two little square marks are what the command strips tore off. The upper one, I thought it happened just because that hook had been up there for a few years. But nope! The bottom one I had just put up, but didn't like where my bag holder was laying, so removed it to relocate. Bad idea, the new one did the same damages as the old one. So I figured I'd just nail a picture hanger hook up instead as I'll just leave that hook for anyone else if I ever sell the RV in the future. A small hole is easier to patch up too...The wood isn't real, it's like a picture of wood on some kind of particleboard, so the command strips simply strip off a layer. Bummer. But I'll move on now to more fun stuffers!

Thanks to Donna K,  & JoJo, they told me about wall puddy! I found some & of all places, found it at the 99cent store! So it was only a dollar...hmmm, cheated out of that penny again! Actually, I bought $18.00 worth of stuff, so I was cheated out of 18 pennies! ha! But it's the cheapest gig around.  

OK, ready? Set? Go! Look at the adorable wall plaques! I had not even been thinking about doing anything else to my kitchen as I already liked it, but saw those cute plaques & instantly knew where they belonged - on my kitchen walls. Not on a store shelf! So I went back & sucked them up. Even spent an extra 45 mins digging & digging for the maroon coffee one. I don't even drink coffee, but still thought they were cute. So my kitchen got even cuter!

Handi tak, reusable wall puddy. And only 99cents...er...uh..a dollar. I tacked up all the plaques with this stuff. I think it'll work fine with no holes in the walls!

The coffee & biscuit plaques. Too cute huh? Click on photos for larger images.

The cupcake plaques. Love them! So darn cute!

Marsala wine deco plaque on wall beside fridge & stove. I think maybe putting the puddy on that wall may have been a mistake. I think maybe it too will pull off the finish? Not sure, but the plaque will stay there anyhow.

A tortilla warmer & a bag holder. I had the bag holder hanging off a kitchen cupboard handle, but I like it better on the wall. It's out of the way now. I put it on the hook in the previous photo above of the picture hook. They are part of my pepper theme.

The right side of my shelf in my kitchen. I already had those items up there, but cleaned them up the other day, then realized how it kind of looks like old country decorations, so when I saw the plaques, that's when I thought they'd tie in nicely with the rest of the kitchen atmosphere. I like the look! Some people would probably think too much clutter, but I like objects & decorating. So to me, it's a look I love. And some of the items were gifts from friends of when I bought the RV, they gave me gifts. The Don't mess with Texas cups, teas, playing cards & a cheeseboard are such gifts. Friends are cool!

And below, a complete photo of my cute rear kitchen!

Those aren't marks on the above cabinet doors, it's just light bouncing off  of them.

I hope you enjoyed today's post. I'm going to go fix myself a nice cup of tea now. It's a little chilly today. So weird. Yesterday, it got to 81. Today, it's not supposed to go above 55. But I love sweats, so am comfy today in my sweats & lined moccasins :-)  And I'm staying off the foot today as it's pretty sore from doing too much lately.

~As always, be kind to your pets, clean up after them on your travels & respect your neighbor~
