As in temporarily …

As in the roller coaster has been shut down for the time being due to high winds …

But don’t despair.

The Tilt-A-Whirl is still going strong …

… as in why don’t you come and join me for a ride on the Tilt-A-Whirl over at Cassie’s Primitive & Proper blog where I’m guest posting today …

And I promise I won’t spin it too fast.  Unless, of course, you like it that way …
Now I was going to introduce you to Cassie, but chances are – if you’re a blogger — you’ve already met her through your comments thread.

Seriously.

Whenever I leave a comment on a blog (and I’m a comment leaver) Cassie’s in the comment thread.  In every comment thread.  And she always, always manages to get there before me.
She’s omnipresent in the blog world.
And it makes me wonder when and how she finds time to do this …

… and are those two beagles I see snoozing on the floor there?  Under the tables?
Did I know this about Cassie?  Did I know she, like I, lives in a roost rules by the hound?
See, even I learned something new about Cassie today …
And while Cassie has been hard at work working on her home, she’s probably most famous in the blog world for her work turning hopeless and neglected pieces of furniture into masterpieces …

… which she reveals at the start of her weekly POWWW furniture-only link party each and every Tuesday. 

Oh, and here’s Cassie in the ‘caught-myself-in-the-mirror’ camera shot …

… isn’t she too cute?

And now I need to go and work on my own neglected furniture pieces.  Luckily I found some inspiration at Hobby Lobby last week …

… so my dresser may actually be refinished soon.

Well …  soon as in after I finish the Homes.com Spring Into the Dream contest on Friday, May 25.  Technically, it’s OUR contest because if I win the $500 Visa gift card, you could win a $500 Visa gift card too.  Click on the button to find out how to create your own Pinterest board to enter …

And then there’s the Mission Possible “The Great Outdoors” multi-blog link party on Tuesday, May 29.  When you link up here, you’ll be linked up on five fabulous blogs.  Click on the blue file folder to learn more …

 
 

So much so for my temporary closure.  Looks like I’m open for business again …

    What’s not to love about a gal that can re-finish a piece of furniture like nobody’s business! Plus Cassie is hysterical – two of my favorite qualities!

    Cassie and Linda are BOTH awesome! I am getting ready for an “outdoor score” for the 29th. And I did the Homes.com thing. I should be caught up with the blog by 2014. *Whew* I’m tired just thinking of all of this.
