My Other Man......

The beginning of October  I get to visit with my  "other man",  Mr Pumpkin Head, first name, Jack.   He thinks he's pretty dapper, always dresses for the occasion and  likes to strike a pose.   He's very charming, has a big smile and can usually be found on the front porch, sitting in his favorite chair, watching the world go by.  I may be prejudiced,  but I think he's quite handsome!   He's the kind of man you like to have around,  doesn't eat much,  never makes a mess,  isn't demanding, doesn't complain or talk back!  ( I don't know about you, but sounds like the perfect guy to me)!  He usually stays for a month and leaves the beginning of November, not one to overstay his welcome!  We are always sad to see him go but know we only have to wait till next October and, "he'll be back"! 














(sorry, didn't notice my toes in the pic)!



Mr. Pumpkin Head was also a very thrifty find, I got him when he visited us at our old store and kindly agreed to come home with me for the small sum of $5.00.

  
Till next time......

I will be partying this week at:

    He is soooo cool! That tie is perfect. Thanx for linking up to THT! If you get a chance try linking up again. When you click on the link it comes up as page does not exist. I just went to your homepage to find Jack.

    I love your punkin' headed man...he's spiffing up the porch pretty well.
    My punkin heads are staying in storage this year. I think they'll be too appealing to Bruce!

    Your other man is looking good! He's in great shape for being around for so many years for only $5.00, he was a steal!
