Reason #1,452 to Not Break the Law
My husband was called for jury duty, and is currently at the courthouse waiting to see if he'll have to serve.
He can't use his cell in the courtroom, but as he's been waiting to be called in, he's been texting me.
Here's the convo so far:
Him: This pic about sums it up:
(View of the intake officer's desk.)
Me: Um, wow. That's not ominous or anything.
Him: At least it's only the intake official and not the judge.
Me: No kidding. I don't even want to think about what's on the judge's desk.
Him: If I had to deal with these people I'd have something like that too.
Him: I just overheard the following: "Honey, if you knew you was gonna see da judge, you shoulda worn your good cap."
Me: Wonder what qualifies as a "good" cap for court.
Me: I'm guessing these belong in the "Not the Good Cap" category:
Him: No, it was probably his Dale Earnhardt cap instead of Jimmy Johnson.

Teddy's Pride Oral Care Review and GIVEAWAY!
I am an expert in Stinky Dog Breath. You could say I have a Doggie Death Breath PhD. With three dogs, I've gotten more than my fair share of moist dog breath wuffed in my face. So when I got the chance to try Teddy's Pride Oral Care Probiotics, you can bet I jumped at the chance. And the air quality in my home has never been better.
Here's the low-down:
Daily use of Teddy’s Pride Pet Oral Care provides a quick, simple and effective way to naturally promote fresher breath and whiter teeth without the hassle, stress and poor results of trying to brush your pets’ teeth or investing in costly and potentially dangerous cleaning procedures requiring anesthesia at the veterinarian’s office. Simply sprinkling Teddy’s Pride Pet Oral Care – which has no taste and no odor – on pets’ food once each day ensures that they will have naturally fresher breath and cleaner, whiter teeth.
The key active ingredient in Teddy’s Pride is ProBiora3®, the award-winning science that was researched and developed by Oragenics to combat destructive bacteria, keep teeth white and freshen breath. By binding to the teeth, ProBiora3’s beneficial bacteria leave no room or nutrients for the destructive bacteria to inhabit a healthy oral cavity. The result is a direct reduction in the volatile sulfur compounds responsible for bad breath. As an additional core benefit of ProBiora3, Teddy’s Pride delivers 24-hour teeth-whitening protection for pets.
Biscuits and chew toys are often touted as promoting fresher breath for companion pets, while other products claim to eliminate the bacteria that cause pets to have bad breath. However, while these products may temporarily curb the side effect of unpleasant breath, they represent only short-term, topical solutions. The probiotics in Teddy’s Pride Pet Oral Care fight the bacteria that directly cause bad breath.
But what you really want to know is:
DOES IT WORK?
Simple answer: YES!
Oh my goodness, praise be, it WORKS. To say I am thrilled with the results is a massive understatement.
It couldn't be simpler: Sprinkle one scoop of the tasteless, odorless powder over your dog's food...
...and watch your dog chow down,
happily oblivious to the de-stinkification in process!
By day two, I noticed an improvement in all dogs. By the end of the week, I could hardly believe the transformation.
Specifically, Sammy (pictured above) has always had the WORST breath - I'm talking warm rotten meat breath here, people. Ugh. Before he was our dog, he had distemper, and because of that his teeth and gums are very susceptible to plaque and overall badness. His teeth are permanently stained a pleasant 30-year-smoker brown and his enamel is literally wearing away. (Poor baby.)
With Sammy, I truly did not expect much from Teddy's Pride, simply because his mouth issues are so extreme. But I should have had faith - his breath is VASTLY improved and his teeth are noticeably whiter. (I'd show you pictures... but have you ever tried to hold a camera in one hand and take a usable closeup pic of a wiggly dog's teeth? My attempts turned out... pretty much as you would expect. Take my word for it, the change was staggering.)
I was so excited about the change in all my dogs that, um, I may have asked my neighbors to take a whiff. (I'm pretty sure they agreed to voluntarily smell dog breath simply to make the scary lady go away.) The looks on their faces went from "OMG, I can't believe I am doing this" to "OMG, WOW! That didn't stink at all!". Everyone I've assaulted that has been witness to the non-stinky breath has wanted in on my secret. It's no secret, it's Teddy's Pride Oral Care, and once you get some for your smelly critter you will be hooked!
Oh, and before I forget - Teddy's Pride is great for cats as well as dogs!

Country Chic Barn Box Makeover!
You know how counters are always collecting junk? Keys, receipts, loose change, wallets, sunglasses... random odds and ends that are important, but messy. My mother's lake house has a counter top which always gets cluttered with my her guest's items, so for Mother's Day I decorated a sweet little box that her messy daughter her visitors could leave their crap items in without making a mess.
I found a little "barn box" at Hobby Lobby for around $5.00 (half price - weee!) and knew it would be perfect! I couldn't leave it plain, of course, so I decoupaged a sweet little star on each side:
The bottom of the box had a hole in it...
(I believe it was intended to be a planter)
...so I cut scrapbook paper to fit and mod podged it in!
I love the traditional paper with the rustic box.
It's now "country chic"!
She may end up using it in her home office to organize her desk, but whatever she uses it for, I am very happy with how it turned out!
I love taking something and adding a few simple touches to make it custom! I think I need to make one for myself! What do you think?
I am linking to a ton of great parties, so many that I simply cannot list them all here! Pretty pretty please visit my list of Craft and Tutorial parties HERE to see all the parties I linked to! A wealth of insipration awaits!
