Leftovers!

Leftovers is one of my favorite stores in Texas!

It is amazing!

You find yourself wondering around for an hour and then realize you still haven't seen it all! Their displays are to die for! It gives your brain an overload is the best way! Enjoy the pictures!

Texas Trash

When we got to Texas one of my friends said

there was a new shop in Carmine!

"Texas Trash"

Of course we had to go check it out! OMG! It was a treat for the eyes! I loved all the bright colors (yes, I said I actually liked all the colors!) and the displays were great. The owners, Linda and Richard Hamilton are very talented and sweet! They make all these creations themselves!

If you are ever on Hwy. 290 near Carmine you have to go there, you won't be sorry!

If you are in a bad mood, you won't be when you leave!

The store makes you feel alive!

They feature art by various artist.



Off course one of these freaky creations came home with me!
Not this one, so if you want it give Linda a call!

I just love these, how charming outside
when all the flowers have faded for the winter!
Keep spring alive!

Fun Art!

I love rust!


Freaky!! In a sweet way!

If you make a purchase, you get to spin a wheel for free stuff!

I'm not very lucky, but it was a fun experience!

PS. I almost forgot to tell you

I'm down 2 whole lbs, this week!!

Yeeppiieee!!

Porn Comments!

I have spent the better part of the morning scanning through old comments for some undesirable comments left by a porn site! They randomly posted on several old posts!!

What do people get out of this??

My blog has nothing to do with porn, nor do my readers want anything to do with it!! This makes me sick!! Unfortunately, now I have to read my comments before they post!!

The blogger is DISA

So watch out for it on your blogs!!

The text is Chinese or Japanese!!

I hope I found all the comments posted, if not and you see one please tell me the date and name of post and I will trash it right away!! Can you believe this?????

Whirlwind Trip!

My Booth

Garden Antiques

Wow! What a short turn around for such a long trip! Boy that went by so quick I'm not even sure if I was there or not! But I do have pictures to prove it! The show at the Red Barn was OK! I will never do that one again, it's just to far for me for a 2 day show! I did get to spend a couple of days with my son, best part of my trip! And I got to catch up with several great friends! All in all we had a great time and feel fortunate to sell what we did!

Thought I would show you a few pictures of some of the dealers at the Red Barn. I have many more pictures and a several great stories to tell you, I'm just to tired right now!

Not sure what is going on with blogger this afternoon! Had more pictures loaded and they got lost some where! I promise I will do better tomorrow!

I forgot to tell you I did manage to lose .4 lbs! We went to a couple of parties and the food was great!

Eiffel Tower

Fabulously French did a post today about her love for the Eiffel Tower! I to love the Eiffel Tower! I first saw it about 15 years ago and was smitten by it massive size and beauty! I was amazed at the view from the top, I never realize Paris was so huge! I long to go back some day, and I'm sure I'd have to go visit the Eiffel Tower again!

Anytime I see something with the Eiffel Tower on it, I have to have it! Craig makes fun of me all the time, but that's cause he's jealous he's never been there! This is a cute wind chime I found the other day, I had to have it! Not sure if I will leave it in wind chime form or make a bracelet out of it!

Update:

Weigh in today

down (.8)

that's almost a pound!

Woo who!

Almost Show Time!

It's Big Red Barn show time! We leave next week for Texas and I can't hardly wait! I'm hoping for warmer weather down there, it's crazy cold here! It was 7 degrees this morning when we got up. I know it's a lot colder in other parts of the country, but it sucks when you have to work out in it! Craig starts loading the truck tomorrow, I usually help, but I don't think I can stand the frigid weather!

Restocked my booth at Bennie's Barn today and worked on sales tax for Texas and Kentucky! Glad that's done and behind me! Thought I'd show a few new booth pictures.

One other piece of news, I coming up on my 200th post! So you know what that means, it will be time for a give away! I will work on that when we get home from Texas, stay tuned for more information!

It's about time!

It about time to say goodbye to 2009 and Hello 2010!

I can't hardly believe 2009 is almost gone!

I don't know where the year went!

I wanted to wish all my blogging friends a

Happy New Year!

I can't wait to see what 2010 has in store for us,

I planning on having the best year ever,

won't you join me?

Happy New Year!

Welcome 2010!

Happy Loser!

I was very happy with the results this week!

Merry Christmas To All!

I want to wish everyone a

Very Merry Christmas,

and leave you with some photos of a place I went to last week in Nonsuch, Ky. I took this pictures with my Blackberry, so the quality isn't that great. Hope you enjoy!

A Bit Disappointed

I went to W.W. last night and I hadn't lost a thing! When I seen the numbers on the scale had stayed the same, I could have cried! For Real! I did NOT cheat this week! But hopefully I will find a larger than normal loss next Monday! I'm not giving up, just more determined to try even harder!

Bedroom Makeover

This is the area in the bedroom I made over! The settee matches the chairs in the dinning room, but I didn't want them in the same room together. I don't like that look where everything matches.

The great chair with German feed sack

I got from Jackie of Bliss Farm.

This statue is actually in the living room.

I collect nudes! What can I say, I wish I looked like that!

Simply changes can make such an impact. I know you don't have anything to compare it with, but I couldn't find any before pictures to show you, sorry! As I grow older I feel the need to simply my life more.

On a lighter note: I have struggled with the idea of sharing this with you guys, but here goes! I went back to Weight Watchers last Monday, not even sure if you are interested! I have struggled with my weight all my life! In the early 80's I did Weight Watchers and kept my weight off for 10 years. Two years ago I went back, lost 32 lbs. but put it all back on! This time I am serious about this! And I am very excited! The first week went very well, as a matter of fact Craig took a huge interest in what I was doing and he wants to go along with the plan. I think we can support each other, of course his weight will probably come off faster than mine!

Last night was weigh in and I lost 3lbs.!! I was so excited, I am officially on my way to becoming a healthier person! I will create a box in my side bar so you can follow along if you are interested!

Movin it around!

Hey guys, did you wander what happened to me? Well I guess I've been a little blog lazy lately! But Christmas is coming and I've been doing some serious house cleaning! On my hand and knees scrubbing floors for 5 hours yesterday! OMG! My floors are so clean you could eat off them!

And I've been sorting through some of my things to sell! Can't find anything to buy, so I've been shopping in my own house. I had bought some treasures for myself last year and never found a place to fit them in. So I took this opportunity to trade the old for the new! Well the new is old! Does that make any sense?

These are the wonderful chairs I bought at Leftovers last year, and this table came from Shelbyville Antique Market. I moved a huge prep table out to make room for them and I really like the results!

I'm loving the creams and browns!

Just got this wonderful mirror a few weeks ago!

These alabaster birds are from French Vanilla!

Wonderful head stone urn is from Clutter.

I am finally amassing several pieces of coral,

and it's displayed in a huge shell I bought for $20.

I love this little carriage,

reminds me of Cinderella.

Hope you enjoyed all my movin around!

I've done some changes in the bedroom,

but Craig was already asleep when I took pictures.

I'll show them in the next post!

Just a Short Note

Just a short note to inform everyone in Blog Land, I will be moving out of the the Shelbyville Antique Market at the end of December! If there is anything that has peaked your interest in my booth, you'd better rush on over and get it!

We have several shows coming up in the next few months and I am not having any luck finding inventory! This forces me to pull my inventory out of my booth so I will have something to sell at the shows!

Are there others out there having problems finding treasures?
