I never promised you a rose garden...

I beg your pardon????? I understand full use of kleenex, of needing them of using them. On the other hand, I don't claim to be green. I try, I fail, I try again but I don't put it on my blog as my namesake as my effort.... this really ticks me off, I liked Betz White, I feel as if she's sold out... Kleenex?? Really???

I am not sure...

I am not sure if I could love this blog anymore.. It's such a great great thing for so many.

Craft Hope Spreading seeds of hope one stitch at a time

I am not sure if I have the time to make the things they make but I love this quilt.

I am not sure how much more madness I can handle in my life.

I am not sure what we are going to do for Christmas this year.

I am not sure if I am going to keep selling Tupperare, depends on how Melissa's party goes.

I am not sure if I believe in the whole "everything comes in 3's" but we've had 2 deaths, and I am not sure how long that lasts, if there's a time limit but I hate that.

I am not sure why we got cable, well satalite, but still, I am not exactly sure, but the people love it.

I am not sure why I LOVE Ace of Cakes but it's an addiction, I mean if there were a mid week I may take off work to watch it... ALONE!!!

I am not sure if anyone else knows that my kid is the cutest on earth, but she should be napping right now and is singing a song about jump(ing) and "ma" which makes it better.

I am not sure I have much more to say now... oh ya.
Prayers/positive energy/thoughts/ love for my neighbors who lost their grand/father/in-law. Prayers for a friend who found out she's pregnant with conjoined twins, for those I know in messy divorces, and any one else you can think of that needs it.

City Wide Garage Sale

Today was our citywide garage sale. I love it... I love it every year twice a year when it's here. I love the idea of a bargain, and hunting for that bargain, I used to have a partner but shes not been around so I now go alone. Going alone has some great factors, 1. no sharing :) 2. being able to leave when you want, 3. listening to whatever I want on the radio These are not all bonus items that I really need, but all in all, it's a good time.
I did find some great deals, I didn't get my bagel, I got coffee from starbucks and a pumpkin scone, it was AWESOMEEEE... I am more and more disappointed in Starbucks these days, I can't stand it.
Either or, I got some of the greatest deals before I even left my street.
Unfortunately, my camera is dead so I am going to try to find photo's online to show you. I don't have the vanity above, I have one way older but I can't find a photo of it, but the seat is close to the base of the one above and it's all attached as one. The second thing I got was the baby carrier, but ours is yellow not pink.
So, this is before I even left the subdivision. The most fun for me right now is trying to find a picture of the next item I found without laughing so hard at the other photos I am finding.
We got a cabbage patch kid. Shes normal, brown hair red and blue outfit. Cute... got a few other things.
I wondered around and changed things up a bit on my normal route, so I went to afew horrible sales and then gave up and saw a guy with bikes piled up all over his truck and some toys and furnature and so I walked up and asked him how much this was


I love this truck and it came home as a huge hit!! It was only $10 and a pack of almonds :) that was a bonus, he probably got it for less which is great for him but ten dollars is a great deal all on it's own. I got some other things but here's the excitement of the day..




I love garage sales.......
