As my amazing mother would often say, “I’m busier than a fart in a whirlwind!”\u00a0 Today was one of those days!\u00a0 We started at 6:00 am and finally hit the sack at 11:30 pm.<\/p>\n

We checked the trap, and Bunny #2 has not visited the cage, even though he has been in the yard several times.\u00a0 We will get him eventually.<\/p>\n

The day was magnificent. We opened up the house and just enjoyed the 150-foot-deep yard, where we get our exercise. We visited the garden, but there were more pressing things today, so we did not stay.<\/p>\n

It was a beautiful day!<\/p><\/div>\n

We went to work rearranging our formal dining room, expecting to see WC Fields and Mae West in the early afternoon.\u00a0 The room’s corners are now bare, and our upstairs “ballroom” now has more goodies.<\/p>\n

We got the formal dining room ready.<\/p><\/div>\n

Scout (aka Luigi) heard the word “company” and stayed by the front door, ready to pounce!\u00a0 He has his scarf on from the groomers; he likes to be ion style.<\/p>\n

Scout (aka Luigi) awaits their arrival.<\/p><\/div>\n

Around 1:00 p.m., the movers came along with David.\u00a0 Special movers are required as these full-sized wax figures are quite fragile.\u00a0 Scout observes them and wonders who these two new people are.<\/p>\n

Scout comes to see the unveiling.<\/p><\/div>\n

Good afternoon, Ms. West.\u00a0 We decided to come over and see you sometime.\u00a0 Mae came from the Movieland Wax Museum when they closed and still has her sales tag from the museum.<\/p>\n

On October 31, 2005, Movieland closed after forty-three years in business and 10 million visitors.\u00a0 David arranged to get several of the figures for his museum.<\/p>\n

Mary Jane “Mae<\/em>”\u00a0West<\/em> (August 17, 1893 \u2013 November 22, 1980) was an American stage and film actress, a sex symbol whose frank sensuality, languid postures, and wisecracking became her trademarks.<\/p><\/div>\n

We could not have her live with us alone, so WC Fields came along.<\/p>\n

William Claude Dukenfield (January 29, 1880 \u2013 December 25, 1946), better known as W. C. Fields, was an American actor, comedian, juggler, and writer.<\/p><\/div>\n

Together again. My Little Chickadee<\/b> is a 1940 American comedy-western film starring Mae West and W. C. Fields was funny.<\/p>\n
