October CupboardScape

Good evening sweet blogging buddies.

I want to thank everyone for the well wishes for my mom's

latest eye surgery.

Surgery went ok, however we were rear ended on the way.

I was driving my mom's new car...

she wanted me to drive since it has been in our driveway

for almost a month now.

Geez...who would have thought that we would be in an accident.

I was stopped at a red light andhappened to be looking

 in the rear view mirror.

I saw the car coming at me and braked harder than usual...

as I thought I would be pushed into the car in front of me.

Being left handed, I also braced my left hand really hard on the wheel.

Harder than my right hand.

My arm was sore for a few days.

Mom was alright, but they did delay her surgery

for an hour so her blood pressure would lower.

Well, since I had to get my mom to her appt,

I opted not to wait for a police report.

My mom was crying and I knew her blood pressure was rising.

I took down all of the ladies info.

Well the next day when I tried to file a police report,

it seems in the county I was hit,

both parties must show up to file the report.

You probably have guessed, that the lady won't go.

She tried to say I would get a ticket for leaving the scene.

Then she offered to send my mom a check for the damages.

Then she stated she was going on vacation...

and that her and her husband have not been on vacation for 11 years.

Really???

I am going to try one more time to get her to cooperate...

but if she does not,

then I will turn over her information to my mom's insurance

company and they can contact her.

Since my arm was a bit sore,

I have been bad at blogging.

So sorry.

I am back now!

Autumn Delight is the inspiration for

my October CupboardScape.

A child's quilt is used as the back drop this time.

Hydrangeas tucked into a basket
next to a 2 gallon butter churn crock.
Underneath my shoo fly screen is some wonderful
smelling pumpkin faux muffins.
I wish we had smell~a~vision in blogland.
They smell so yummy!

I chose this whiskey jug...
but I think some hard cider should be in it. 

Lastly this piggin bucket.
Piggin pails and buckets have the handle on the side.

Although mine is flat,
some were carved into a spoon to be used for grain.
You cannot really tell in this pic, but mine has knife marks...
which tells me this was once used 
as a small breadboard or cutting board of some kind.

October CupboardScape Blessings To All!
