Money Can't Buy Me Love

Instead of going with the flow and ranting on how money and material things can't bring you happiness, I'm going to do a photo blog post. This post is filled with pictures of material things that make me happy every single day of my life. Take that!

Bowling girl light switch cover, I heart you so.

Bright orange slick chair, that someone could do a running leap and slide right off you, you are pretty useless. If someone leans back on you, you almost turn over. I still think you're keen. You remind me of the portly housekeeper who never cleans shit. Rock on chair. Or actually, can you not rock on? Just kind of sit on.

Hiya antique china hutch I got screamin' cheap from a friend. You rule my dining room. Just don't tell table. That lady gets jealous.

Oh, Lux Starburst Sunburst clock: As soon as I get my tax money you're actually going to work. But for now, just continue to hang there and look pretty.

Hamburger phone who will never get used: you made the cable guy laugh when he had to hook you up, so that's really all that matters. I do wish you had a way to turn off the ringer though. But alas, you are still A-OK.

Hello Lord Hooterton Snuffings and Ducky McTeabags. I smile every time I look at you in the kitchen. Carry on.

I have known I wanted this table since I was five. My grandpa made it from material he "borrowed" while working for the Sutter Club. I love you table.

Hiya Soupy. You require no words friend.

You can say that material things don't bring you happiness all you want. But I would tend to disagree. While you can't buy your way in to a smile, you most certainly can wake up blue and see something that totally changes the tone of your day. These are a few of my tone changing things.

  1. Hi Hutch! You look keen over at Melanie's house and I don't even miss you because I know you are loved and well-taken care of over there.
    Love,
    Mama

  3. "Lord Hooterton Snuffings"? How can you not love something you've given such an elaborate, regal name? I want your chair.

  4. He is regal. He watches over the kitchen for me. But I'm partial to McTeabags 'cause he actually is a tea infuser.

    That chair looks awesome, and is useless. I have to reinforce the back so you can actually sit in it without it becoming a recliner. It's not SUPPOSED to recline. Yay cheap ass chairs from Urban Outfitters!

  5. If I ever visit your house, please don't blame me if your hamburger phone comes up missing. It's not in my pocket :)

  6. Oh, you will most certainly NOT leave with the phone. I will email you where you can get one though. :)
