I have either lost my mind or I’m slipping into my 2nd childhood. A powerball win would save me. Then I could hire a crew of people to help do all the projects I come up with. I cannot stop looking around and maybe for the 1st time in my life seeing sooooooo many things Read more about #182…Green Tomato Relish, Tornado Sirens, Halloween???[…]
Oh good grief! Beware of the “hole in the wall” shop walking up Slanted Main St. in Branson Missouri. The Classy Flea has given me nightmares and wrecked my sleep. The place is insane! Every piece of wall and every floor has been artistically painted. How can I replicate that in my home and salvage Read more about #181…The Classy Flea & Me[…]
If you read my last blog about my painting of the month club, you see that I have a new entry from the one garage sale I went to yesterday, a treasure for $2! Hub sidekick did not smile or say a word. Little does he know I have a new vision! Ok, yes, I Read more about #180…$2 Color Infusion Staging for 2022[…]

Unfortunately there is limited wall space in my house, so I have had to recycle my paintings and pictures around the rooms.

I found this beautiful wood box at a garage sale, marked $15, for 10. Plans are for a satin polyurethane inside and out and literally making a foot locker out of it, full of mani / pedi “stuff”! And a perfect top for my purse and swim bag. It’s that time of year I am Read more about #177…Repurpose, Renew and Mums the Word[…]
Amazingly our family made it thru Covid-19 alive, but a few did come down with the virus and only time will reveal if, and what damage. What a sad year with no hugs and kisses and only on a rare occasion did we get to sit together for short moments on a cold patio till Read more about #176…A Mother’s Plea to My Family[…]
Came home to a flooded basement AGAIN, 3rd time in a year! It had rained 14 ” overnight! Somewhat easier to get on top of this as we had added metal feet to some cabinets and furniture and painted children’s blocks under the hope chest and other items. The rugs dried out on the patio.

I believe we live parallel lives. Have you ever noticed when you buy a new vehicle, everyone on the road also has the same, AND in your color? Forever ago I had my gall bladder removed only to discover I was the last person on earth to have that done, as everyone had done that Read more about #174…Life after Death…SSDD[…]
 It happened again! #1daughterconnie and I went shopping at the fave, The Rusty Chandelier and there it was, the dancing picture. I had to have it. That’s me and Russ…..in my “skinny mind” but true when we were dating….not so long ago. Sixteen dollars. So I brought it home and slid it behind a Read more about #173…Treasure From The Rusty Chandelier Disruption Again………[…]
