We all like to see Before and After pictures...don't we?
Sure we do.
Sure we do.
Allrighty then....
See the nice custom shelf that Coach made for our shampoo & soap in the shower? See it?
Now you see it
Now you don't.
My husbandHercules was merely closing the shampoo lid, while the shampoo bottle sat on the shelf....and the shelf hit the floor and as he put it "marble was flying everywhere"
My husband
Very funny, considering I rest my foot on this shelf when I rarely shave my legs and I have not made it move an inch. HeMan.
My good friend Kelly brought over potted Stargazer lillies this past weekend for me. They were all closed when they arrived.
Before:
After:
Aren't they just gorgeous??
Kelly is such a good friend....the kind of friend that remembers almost everything...she did our wedding flowers for us wayyyyy back when we got married. (almost 18 yrs ago)
The stargazer Lillies were the flowers in my bridal bouquet... HOW SWEET!!
Before:
After:
DAMN CATS!!!!
Oh, no! Two catastrophes in your house! I'm sorry!
ReplyDeleteThe stargazer lillies are beautiful! My boss bought me a huge floral arrangement yesterday, and there's one stargazer lilly in it which just opened this morning. It's gorgeous!
That wasn't the sweet innocent looking cat you posted before in the orange bowl was it? No way! ;)
ReplyDeleteOoo - I believe some little kitty heads would roll for that!!
ReplyDeleteWould like to have seen those cats scurrying away like lightening after THAT happened!
ReplyDeleteMy husband loves those marble shower shelves! But they haven't fallen off. I don't know what he used to install them, but I wish they would fall off; I hate marble. Too much up keep. There are so many ceramic tiles that look like natural stone. I made sure he used the look alikes in our new bathroom and they look great!
ReplyDeleteAnd your poor vase, bad cat, bad cat! ;)
Very interesting before and after pictures. I would imagine that you are happiest about the middle set. Those lilies are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm, Suz... Are you sure that Hercules didn't break the vase also?????? ha ha... OR---maybe he can blame the cats on breaking the shelf in your shower!!!!!
ReplyDeletePoor thing---glad (after all of your ordeal) that you got some gorgeous lilies. I love the Stargazers also.
Hope the rest of the day goes well... (Keep the cats and Hercules in the garage for awhile!!!) Ha Ha
Hugs,
Betsy
Stargazer lillies are my favorite!
ReplyDeleteI know all about cats.......our cat is 18, a love but she meows constant now...I was told some cats do that because they get confused when they get old........
As much as I love animals, once the cat is gone, I am done .......hubster is going to retire in a couple of years sooner if he wins the lottery....(fat chance) and I just want to get up and go whenever we want..........poor Shadow I have her one paw in the grave........!!!
Gee that was a nice vase.....!
Gee do you think just maybe you could have loosen the shelf by putting your foot on it and it just happen to be coaches luck that it broke on him......Nah he must of leaned on it ..right!
The only thing worse is when you have a "matching" pair of vases and kitty breaks one!!! Love, love the star gazer lilies! Hope tomorrow is a better day Suzanne!
ReplyDeleteI like the before and after thing. Great post. I do believe you are a little too hard on the cats though! LOL
ReplyDeletecertainly the most unique before & after photo collection i've seen! i can't believe those kitties broke your olive jar! the lillies are beautiful... a delight to watch them bloom too! as for your HeMan... i just don't know what to say! he's building up a lot of muscle coaching those girls!
ReplyDeleteOhh. That last one is just sad. I'll stick to my dog and fish!
ReplyDeleteI love those flowers!!! Beautiful. I cannot wait until it goes from brown to green around here but I'm not complaining because it's so much better than white. I love that vase you had before some stinkers did their damage...I bet those flowers looked pretty in it too. Are the cats still hiding?
ReplyDeleteohhhh no!! the flowers are beautiful! too bad about the vase though.... my cats enjoy knocking over FULL glasses of water
ReplyDeleteI can't believe the shelf broke off. Lucky for you it wasn't when you were shaving your legs!! I call my husband Bam Bam. He doesn't know his own strength either.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet friend Kelly is. Sorry about the vase. The response in my house is stupid dog!!!
Much love from NJ,
Sue
xoxo
OH I wish you could have seen my face
ReplyDeletewhen I got to the last before and after.
I would be hissing mad!!!!!!!!
oh no!
ReplyDeleteHow could you possibly think that your sweet and innocent kitty broke that vase when it was clearly a result of a shift in the earths rotation?
ReplyDelete(Lorenzo told me to write this.)
Oh...at least you can get some blogging miles out of the shelf and vase...but still a bummer!
ReplyDelete...and what's nicer than a grat friend and lillies?!
I knew that was the work of the cats. Your boxers are way too sweet for that. Hmm...I love cats, but I DON'T like it when they GET ON THE FURNITURE, COUNTERS, etc. (can you hear me yelling from here?) I'm so sorry for the breakage in your house, but I love those lilies, especially from here. They are so pretty, but boy, they make me sneeze & my eyes water. Thanks for sharing yours so we can enjoy them without the suffering!
ReplyDeleteYou need to tell your kids to head over to the Gary Rith Pottery Blog and order you a new vase!
ReplyDeleteso sorry about your nice shelf! I have a marble seat in my shower and now I'm afraid when I sit on it to shave my legs it might crash.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the cats don't like sunflowers.
hahahaha that was a cute post. wow, is the shelf in the shower fixible? yep. those kitties sure know how to break the good stuff.
ReplyDeleteC
one good thing about my cat being old, fat and slightly decrepit is that she can only stay low to the ground now. those days are over. and i do not miss them. there's a lot to be said for an old cat. :-)
ReplyDeleteAhh, the true cost of hair care products nowadays. And you are probably wondering if tennis rackets are still made with cat gut.
ReplyDeleteHate to hear about the broken things. The Stargazer lillies, though, are just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteSo you're married to a he-man too?! Our moto is there's nothing that can't be broken(by Patrick).To make him feel better I break a few things too.Just to make him feel better mind you.
ReplyDeleteI can't be harsh on your cat, as our pooches seem to do their fair share of destruction.(Come visit their blog & see what they did yesterday!)
Lastly,your lily pics are lovely. Fun post.
Your cats are as strong as your husband? Impressive....
ReplyDeleteI NEED a vase full of those lillies - they are just BEAUTIFUL!!
ROTFLMAO!! oh dear I know I shouldn't laugh but that's bigger than I can hold inside! :-D
ReplyDeleteYour posts are so original... my daily addiction!
LOVE stargazer lilies.... absolutely gorgeous and so fragrant (sometimes a little overwhelmingly fragrant, but always mesmerizingly beautiful!)
