In a Nutshell

I messed with the contrast on this pic-we glow now. Wait till you see the photos Miss Janet took of Dana and I for our annual Conviviality-JUST you wait.... you might pee your pants a lil like I do when I jump on trampolines.

Went to a few Estate Sales and this one above was insane. The house with all the stuff was JUST the GUEST HOUSE!!! The guns were old and the Silver bottles were neat. The one below had all Mid-Century Furniture and a buncha Nick knacks that I missed out on most of the good stuff bcuz I have a job and I can't go on Friday during the day. I did manage to get a few cute things for my kitchen all at 50% off! The red and white dress is a Guy Laroche and will be going on Ebay today. K here

Ok, I had to stop at my favorite Thrift Store. If I drive to Tempe it's a must bcuz otherwise It's so far away so it's like a given that I have to go-even If I overdraft my bank acct. I got that weird C3PO Mask-dunno if it's authentic or not but it was $2.98 and the vintage t-shirt is pretty fitting.

I did drink the wine out of nearly all those bottles, but after 3 months maybe? I have 4 more boxes full that my Italians brought me from their restaurant. I had to take all the labels off of those mutha fuggers-what a pain in the arse! I'm cutting them into glasses for gifts for x-mas. I also fixed that lamp and BOY what a pain that was. I had to take it apart at least 5 diff times bcuz I kept forgetting a step-typical half ass Cindy.

my mother used to try to beat me in a dress just like that. I sat quietly swilling cereal out of a melamine casserole dish and let her come down from her nicotine- and scotch-fueled freakout. Ah, the early '70s...

wow.. you came away with a lot of good stuff. i've been looking for a pyrex set too and every time i find a good one i convince myself i don't need it and regret not getting it later.
