Doctor Dan


Doctor Dan the Bandage Man


A Little Golden Book complete with bandages!

A gift from a dear reader.

Who knew I was on the lookout for this little gem.

Right after I came upon the little book Nurse Nancy.

Thank you Melissa. I have been saving this for just the right week!


She too is a fellow Jayhawk fan. 
The team plays Detroit at 9pm Central tonight in Omaha.  Basketball season just isn't long enough...

I am linking up with Corey for another week of Lil' Vintage Story Books.


This week my Dr. Dan is busy tiling. I am sure he is ready to go back to the office now. Here's to hoping we finish this by Monday and enjoy another wonderful game on Sunday as well.

Looks like a fun weekend ahead with that tile work. I'm glad you were able to secure the Doctor Dan book. I'm sending you a separate email. You won't believe where I'm at.

Oh how precious is that book... And oh my that tile work looks FUN!!! :)

Barbara said...

I did not realize there was more than one Doctor Dan book. Are there more than two? Should we be on the lookout? On the basketball front: Syracuse fan, but I'm always willing to switch to the Jayhawks if (God forbid) the Orange exits early.

Another LGB to watch for is Dr. Dan Goes to the Circus. I don't have that one either! The tiling is fun, we learned to do ceramic tile by watching YouTube videos last winter. Have fun.

XXOO,
Tammy

True story, Dr. Dan is my doctor! He has a couple of these vintage books in his office! I think I have a copy also, but I definitely don't have Nurse Nancy!

You and Melissa are my two JAYHAWK blogland friends, and a perfect post for her. I love Melissa. Am glad that Dr. Dan got to you safe and sound from her...a perfect gift.

I love the pictures in that book. How sweet of Melissa to find the book for you!

I know you are enjoying the game as I am writing this!

Corey said...

I saw this book just a couple days ago, but the price was too high... so, so sweet! The way my kids love BandAids, they'd love it!

Love Dr. Dan!!! And I picked the Jayhawks to win the basketball pool I'm in!
Crossing my fingers for a win!

Sheesh, this is my fourth try at leaving you a comment. Just trying to say the tile is really pretty - it looks almost like wood. Will there be a big reveal of the remodel one of these days?

Doctor Dan is really cute! Have fun with your tile project. Hope it goes well. Happy St. Patricks Day!

The graphics are so sweet! I love old childrens books :)

Melissa said...

Okay..I wanted to write you when I read this entry but I had to wait until after the game...I certainly didn't want to jinx the Jayhawks by commenting before it was over last night. I wore my KU badge that Magpie made to the Big 12 last week and they won and then I didn't wear it on Friday and they lost so needless to say I will be wearing it from here on out! I see you have a badge like mine from Laurie. Don't you just love it?
I love your blog-it is a happy spot on the internet. And the fact that you are a Jayhawk fan just makes it all the better!
Rock Chalk!!!!
