Michael's coupon!

I'm sure there is something that most of you "need" at Michael's this week........50% off one non-sale item at this link: http://http//mic.michaels.com/20100912SLUSLP.aspx (with the usual restrictions of course). Come on.............you KNOW all that fall stuff is calling ya :) Speaking of fall, here's a pic of my house from last fall. I'll put a new pic as soon as I'm done decorating for this year. Happy decorating!

Trying to get back to this.............

I can't believe I let this go for almost a year! It's not that I haven't been thrifting and hitting garage sales, flea markets, etc. but I just didn't take time to write about it. Perhaps welcoming our first grandchild last October had something to do with that? Just a tad?? LOL We lost my father-in-law last year as well, younger DS graduated from college this past spring and while he still "technically" lives at home, we don't see much of him so DH and I are sort of empty nesters these days. Let's just say our lives have had some big changes in the last year and a half and call it a day :)

I need to work on pictures of some of the exciting stuff I've found this year so for now, I'll leave you with a pic of one of my most treasured possessions...........my grandson Ethan (aka Bud). I've never found anything this cute while thrifting :) His chair in this picture did come from a garage sale! Isn't it adorable??? It's Osh Kosh and oh so cute..........I just couldn't pass it up! Oh and the "fencing" in the background.........DD found that at one of our infamous spring "mud sales" for a buck! It has 6 panels and comes in quite handy for keeping Bud away from the tv and her elliptical! LOL We saw another one listed on Craig's list earlier this summer as "rare" and they wanted $75 for it!

Until next time (and I promise it won't be as long!),
