Blogging Butterfly

Yea! Bubble time! I was inspired by my blogging buddy Lynn to use (well - actually purchase) a butterfly stamp. Lynn is my most loyal reader and poster! Thank you Lynn for the inspiration and sweet notes. The sentiment was picked out especially for you!

I finally broke down today and bought a butterfly stamp. Okay - so I bought MORE than just a butterfly stamp...but EVERYTHING was on sale. It was my way of boosting the local economy and demonstrating my frugal fiscal responsibility to my friend Lisa - who by the way says "you should buy it" to every item I fondled, pointed at, or drooled over. Maybe shopping with her isn't such a good idea...
