Hello. It's Blue Monday! I'm so glad you decided to join in the fun.

I l❤ve comments, so please remember to leave one for me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

One day, when Johnny and I were out and about, we stopped at Tuesday Morning. Look what beautiful blue flew into my hands! (Actually, I spotted him on a shelf and knew he had to come home with me. How could I resist?)




A Blue Jay! Of course I purchased him and brought him home. How could I resist?





He landed on my kitchen counter, right next to a vase with flowers!
Smart bird.


Happy Blue Monday!

  25. Good morning Sally, I have been out of town for 4 days with my sister and just returned last night. We were on a buying trip again. A fun but tiring trip. We went as far as Ohio to a big antique sale.

    You are right about your bird being smart. He came to a lovely home and will be admired the rest of his days. Smile.

    Have a wonderful day.
    Hugs, Jeanne

  33. Good morning Sally...love the little bluebird. According to my husband, blue jays can be a little ornery, while blue birds are sweet. Personally, I think they are both beautiful, and I get very excited when I see one in the yard.

  58. It's been a while since I've done blog visits, but I'm getting better about posting and getting out there! Glad to see you're still doing your Blue Mondays. Love this little guy! I also like ceramic birds. This one looks like he could have been the inspiration for the bird on your Blue Monday tag!

    I'm busy...still working, keeping house, and now I have a sweetheart! Yes, life is good.
