I spy with my little eye!

By Debbiedoo's Team Published: Jul 7, 2011 · Modified: Feb 4, 2025

I spy with my little eye is often used in a car game.  
However, did you know you can play it in a house too? Yep, you can and I did!~ For all you regular readers, you know Kim  and I recently met.  There was one room in her house, she did NOT show me, and that was her “old decor” Hoarders room.  She in fact posted about it the next day.

Well when I was viewing eyeing up the room of all the “stuff” she had, I spied this gorgeous rooster pillow. 
 Loved it of course.  Kim said too bad I did not see it, as she would have given it to me.  I was tempted to drive back to her house LOL…..
Time had since passed and I forgot all about it.  
That was until yesterday when  a package arrived.  I thought Kim Nichols, what the heck is this?  WOW, WOW, WOW, it is the pillow cover!!~ Yipee Kim you are the best! I ran around the house to find a pillow that would fit…without hesitation it landed in it’s new home.  
Sweet little card too!
Did I mention Lucy is sad? 
Yes she is because I will NOT let her lay all over my new beautiful pillow.  At least not yet, she has plenty of places to loaf around for now.
She was sniffin though….
Lucy is plenty comfy, don’t you worry about her.
And for the record girls, I am getting early inspiration for my next COPY cat magazine challenge,
Hope you are doing the same.
Now I must get back to packing, this pillow threw me off track.
Thank you Kim, It is the nicest pillow I have ever owned, and I mean that! It looks like it was custom made for our room and home.

    Kim is a sweetheart! Isn't it fun when we all love the same things! I was going to tease you that I love your chandelier or the rug in your living room…but I better not! You might drive up with it one day! ♥ The pillow has the perfect colors for your home! ♥

    I absolutely love that Rooster pillow. Kim is so sweet to send it along to you. I hope the rooster didn't alarm the postal workers along the way. He looks like he may have an attitude!
    I have been a little MIA. Road trip. I am wondering what I am missing. Why are you packing?
    PS. Guess who bought their FIRST rooster last week. Now I can join the next rooster party. I will share it from home, soon.
    Love you girl, Ginger

    Oh, I'm glad you mentioned the copy cat party! I so wanted to play in your last one but it was too late for me. I was late and I'm slow – old age, ya know! So I'll start looking for what I can copy cat! 🙂
