Isn't that amazing? The dog coat you shouldn't be able to get because it's gross and also I think dog-fur items are illegal. I wrote stories about Sears kit homes and they are beautiful, though the closets are microscopic and short (?!).

Didn't really ever get any of them but it was nice to look at them and read the description and dream of the possibilities. My son who is 13 probably wouldn't know what to do with it. He gets on the computer now days and shows me. Sometimes I wish I/we could go back when things seemed simpler...or at least slower pace !!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14245531.post-1167280296932152682006-12-27T23:31:00.000-05:002006-12-27T23:31:00.000-05:00We had a 15 year-old real estate promotional magaz...We had a 15 year-old real estate promotional magazine lying around our house for some reason. One day, our landlord was visiting and started looking through it, without realizing that it wasn't current. She was completely mezmerized for a few moments (nearly salivating, actually) with the impossibly low prices. You could see the wheels spinning in her head.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
