Few Finds & Changes for Hubby

Since I had my garage sale on Thursday, I wasn't in a hurry to do some "shopping". We went 2nd day to a "packed" sale and I found these at 1/2 off! I want to alter a journal for personal use and I think one is just the right size.

My garage sale went well. We "made" $400.00 (LOL)....and now I'm in the process of cleaning out the garage and donating the leftovers. Nothing back into the house! It was a perfect day on Thursday too!

Hubby works for UPS and there was an opening for a "driver", full time work. He applied and will start in June. He works part time now. The real estate market isn't providing for us and this will. He will have 9+ hours a day and a pay cut for 2  years, but then it will be good! We spend most of the day together now. It will be a huge change for both of us!!! Puppies too! I'll be making changes with the antique business. May go down to selling at one shop....it's all GOOD! 

Today is our 23rd wedding anniversary and it rained just like on our wedding day! Time flys!

With all the RAIN this weekend, the flowers are ready to burst. I can't wait for them to bloom and bring some inside to enjoy! Lilacs and lily of the valley!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend! Tomorrow is my duty day at Auntie M's!!!

Getting Ready for My Garage Sale :)




I've been in the "GARAGE" for the last couple of days! I'm having my yearly
Garage Sale on Thursday!

If anyone wants to come, just email me and I'll send you my address! It's also City Wide, so you can spend the day!

I have small pieces of furniture too that I didn't take a photo of.  A couple of book cases and side tables.  It will be a FULL and FUN sale! Come visit me! I'll give you some lemonade!

I'm NOT complaining, but it got to 90 today! Going to watch Grandgirl's game tonight!

Happy that Spring is Here!

Happy Mom's Day & Nest Swap

                HAPPY MOM'S DAY TO ALL MY BLOGGING FRIENDS!
I could live in this sweet cottage!
 I was in Viv's Nest Swap and my partner was, Kim at A Vintage Fairy and she made the darling felt bluebird for me! There are little eggs in the nest too! It was wrapped in a bread basket linen. THANK YOU, Kim,! It's just adorable!!! One of these days, I'm going to make felt animals/birdies!
This is the one I made for Kim! I tried to think outside of the box and used a small tray!

I hope everyone has a Lovely Mom's Day and a Blessed Sunday too!
Warmly,

Fun Time & Finds

 On Tuesday I had a FUN day with Jeanne! We had lunch at The Mad Hatter, her treat! She gave me the darling  dessert plate that matches a luncheon set that I have! We also went to the Round Barn which is so awesome! THANK YOU,dear Friend!

These are recent finds from estate sales. Must keep the booths stocked! Shopping for treasures it the Best part of the Job!

Finally, Spring is here! Light rain today, but I don't mind! It's way better than snow.
I'm also getting ready for the garage sale next Thursday.  It's going to be a city wide one, so I hope that everything sells! Email me if you want to come!

Also need to get going on the yard. Behind because of the late snow! Sorry that I haven't been around to visit. Grandgirl has started fast pitch ball on night a week and the days just fly by!

Take care!

First Garage Sale of the Season & More

 Yesterday hubby and I went to the first garage sale of the season and we SHOULD have went there right away! Scored the goodies above and below. Cool! Very fun cereal spoons!
 We also went to an estate sale and saw Tammy from Tammy's In Love there!
 A couple of weeks ago I turned the bluebird table cloth into a valance over my kitchen window. See the snow! I also made the pillow below from a dresser scarf and it's the perfect color for my living room.
Sooooo, it was a PERFECT SPRING day today! Worked out in the yard yesterday and today. Also had hubby clean out "his" garage for our garage sale that we'll be having on the 18th, if the weather is NICE.

I put up a bluebird house today and sure hope they make a nest in it. I also bought meal worms for them, dried ones!

Washed some bed linens today and hung them on the clothesline! OH the SMELL so GOOD!

It just feels so GREAT to have the sun shinning and perfect temperatures. Thankful!!!


Thank you for the Birthday wishes! Have a Blessed Sunday!

Best B-day Cake & Treasures


 I had to show you the Best Birthday Cake, EVER!  It is a "Chocolate Raspberry Diva" cake from the "Buttercream" Bakery!  Notice, I'm letting my hair go GRAY!  At least for now!

 My daughter's wedding cake will come from this bakery. I'm not sure which flavors they will decide on! It's just so YUMMY!!!! and a Real Treat! Hubby bought it for me.
 Birthday plans didn't go as originally planned. So, hubby and I went to a couple estate sales. Had happy hour with the family and then home for CAKE! Turned out to be a great day! Other than the SNOW and COLD!
Recent finds!!! I think hankies just follow me home!

THANK YOU ALL so very MUCH for the Birthday Wishes! Your wishes Made My Birthday!!! I feel the "LOVE"!!!

Tomorrow is my duty day at Auntie M's...Come visit me! It's slow on Mondays!
Warmly,
