When the going gets tough...

...the tough go shopping!  Yep, played hooky yesterday (good thing I'm my own boss!) and went on a shopping spree...ahhhhhh....a little retail therapy is good for the soul...and sometimes sole.  Alas, no shoes yesterday (though I'm awaiting some really cool cowboy boots I ordered) but some other fun stuff nonetheless.  What's the use of working hard unless you get to enjoy the fruits of your labor :-)  
Here's another shot of one of my mom's naughty raccoons in her bird feeder.  Hard to be angry with a face like that.
