I've Been Busy!

I hope you all are having a great

week!  I have been really busy 

since I last posted. Weekend 

before last, we priced a lot of 

things and went to set up a booth

in an antique mall, then on 

Monday, I was going to go to Texas,

but I was too tired to drive that far. 

There were bad storms South of us, so 

I decided to go on Tuesday, not 

knowing there were going to be 16

tornadoes!  I was about and hour

and a half on the road and my hubby

called and said to turn the radio on,

there were tornadoes all over Dallas!

I called Lorna Bunger and she was

at Canton, not far from me, good 

thing, because she had been in Dallas

to see the doctor! I told her it was a

good thing she had gotten out of Dodge!

Anyway, she kept going East and I kept

going South and a couple of the towns

that we had gone thru, had tornadoes, 

after we had been through there! Whew!

But we made it and we got to meet

up on Wednesday! I had to laugh at

my hair, it looked good in the mirror!

It has a mind of it's own, I think. I am

in between hair cuts, trying to get it

grown out some, now if I would just

leave the scissors in the drawer!...lol

Back to our get together, we met at

the antique mall, bought some goodies

and then we went to lunch and we 

had such a great time! Lorna's hubby

took several pictures of us and I kept

laughing, because he kept making 

faces while he was taking then and

I just kept cracking up! Now on the

other hand, the pics of Lorna were

all good! Thanks, David for for all

the laughs!

I guess I better show you what I 

bought at the antique mall!

I bought this corner cabinet! This is

in the dining room, which I still 

haven't finished, since working on

the kitchen, so I better get back

at it....The table, made from an old 

sewing machine, is Chum's perch

to look out on the patio. 

I have several things around here,

that I bought awhile back, so I will

post them, another time.  

I got back from TX, on Friday

afternoon, with a loaded van and

hubby and I marked and marked

things for the antique mall. We took

it over on Saturday and then had

to get ready for company on Monday.

Needless to say, I haven't done 

much of anything, since the company

left!

There seems to be something about

things needing fixed or replaced

all at once!  My fridge in TX is a

gonner, had to get all new tires on 

my van, oil changed and the

front end lined up. Then the hot 

water started leaking and flooded

the laundry room! This makes 6

floods in this house in 5 yrs....Some

were from other things, but a mess,

just the same! When I got down to

the other house, I discovered that 

we have 10 dead trees in our yard,

from the drought, last summer! 

Someone told me that the tree 

cutting services, around there want

$1,000 a tree!  We have cut trees

ourselves, so I guess we will have

to do the ones that we can do.

Hubby came home with these 

mushrooms, last night. They were given 

to him and I was lucky to get a picture

before he got them all cut up to soak,

looking forward to have them with 

supper tonight. 

One last thing, Chum turned 2 yrs

old, last week. He is getting so big, he

weighs 15 lbs, already! He's Momma's

big boy.....

Well, I need to figure out what I want

to do for my next rug hooking project.

I want to get started on it, right away...

Oh, that reminds me, l got a stool on 

the way back home, with a hooked top

on it, which I will show you all later,

when I post some of the goodies I gotten, 

this past month or so.

I hope you all are having great 

weather, I have seen where some states

 have been getting snow, again!

Thanks for stopping by and I do 

appreciate all your comments.

Also, welcome

to my newest followers....

Until next time....
