BURIED - IN – JUNK!
After getting home from the big *adventure* it took me a few days to recover! Coming down from a shopping-high is far worse than coming down from a sugar-high! phew!
Once I got my feet under me…I dove in! Here are a few pictures of the abyss…ahem, the dining room! I have a workroom upstairs, but I couldn’t fit all this JUNK any one place!
plan of attack…upstairs with the Ironstone and downstairs with everything else!
Some of the Ironstone and boy don’t I just love it when I have like-a gazillion butterpats to price!
My little helper, cookie-cat, and the fabulous motel blanket that started all that sneezing!
I’ve managed to work my way through most of it! I bet you can even see me smiling!
Don’t forget…last chance to leave a comment to be entered in the SweetTalk Halloween Package give-away! A winner will be picked…tomorrow! So…hurry…leave a comment!

Holy Cow! I think we made it about 10 miles in 9 hours! Well, we might have made it a little bit further than that, but not by much!
Surrounded by JUNK! My head was spinning! Can I take just a moment to tell you how incredibly HOT it was! OMGosh! And the only thing I can’t do when I’m hot is spend money…but today…I overcame that!
I was feeling good about working on my tan while shopping, you know multi-tasking….until I got in the shower and washed my *tan* right down the drain! ICK!
Now we’re making up the rules as we go….here’s a new one: Tricia and I will be playing some guessing games on our blogs and the first person that gets the answer right gets their name added to the hat an extra FIVE times!
I’m tellin’ ya, you WANT to win!
You know how I love me some multiples! I stumbled across a canister of some interesting little…thingies! I didn’t know what they were but the kind gentleman (I’ll explain that in a minute) was happy to enlighten me!
As a side note…we came across that “gentleman” at the very end of the day…we decided that as stinky as we were we still smelled about a thousand times better than he did!
Now, where was I? Oh yeah…it’s time to leave a comment with your best guess! Here are a few details to help: they are about 4″ long, metal and in red, purple, green and yellow!
(yeah and, uh, please excuse the hotel wash cloth background…trust me, a much better choice than the *floral* print bedspread!)
Think you know? Start guessing!
And don’t forget to jump on over to Tricia’s blog and see what she’s got goin’ on!
