Including those in Minnesota.Nearly 1000.<br /><br />ELLEN<br />http://berniepuer.ipower.com/octagonbook/index.htmlGibsonGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17056853312846441082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9213759517701918655.post-44530445590282386852010-02-12T12:28:52.469-06:002010-02-12T12:28:52.469-06:00Beautiful home.

It doesn't hurt that he is super friendly and just walks right into there home either. He and I are a good team... he's 18 months now, how long do you think we can keep this up before we get the police called on us?<br /><br />MichelleMichelle Hugheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10989026211921329428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9213759517701918655.post-25070146990864419912010-02-09T12:33:07.217-06:002010-02-09T12:33:07.217-06:00I can see why you are stalking...just gorgeous:) I...I can see why you are stalking...just gorgeous:) I'd have my art studio up in that room!Farmgirl Paintshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17205054615599523192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9213759517701918655.post-29276023883707713482010-02-09T12:08:20.313-06:002010-02-09T12:08:20.313-06:00such a cute post!

Since we're using your nerve, let's go for it! <br />I do the same kinds of things--watching people's lives and trying to decide what they are like and their houses are like. I think it's healthy, don't you??

Then I play it off like I'm joking and tell them that I would love to see the inside - every single time, they are flattered and have invited me in! What do you have to lose - now I even have a new friend in my neighborhood because of it. Go for it ~<br />SarahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
