Through the back door or front?

Ugh I hate it when I cant find what I am looking for, but it is very easy to fill the drawers of what not…and to some it may be trash but…
ReplyDeleteBTW, Brian, I still have not found what I was looking for. That search started before I viewed the Magpie Prompt as a diversion and goes on still.
ReplyDeleteI really like this style. So good to keep it tight.
ReplyDeleteThis really struck a chord- I’ve misplaced the card I bought for my son’s birthday and it’s driving me mad! The staccato lines make me think of my own frantic search.
ReplyDeleteI can never find something if I put it in a special place...
ReplyDeleteToo many special places...makes it all so confusing sometimes!
ReplyDeleteOh, I so recognize that feeling -
ReplyDeleteI do that!
ReplyDeleteAnna :o]
Happens to us all and you caught that here beautifully.
ReplyDeleteMy "special places" are often rather difficult to find. And my husbands are even more so!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed this!
