Words. They are powerful little things. They can make you laugh with abandon, weep with joy or smile with contentment. Some words sound funny - like clinkety-clank. Other words just look funny - like giggle. And still other words can make your heart ache with yearning - like dream.

B I J!

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 abyssahem, 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!

game on…THE END!

Game #5 was a little tricky!  I said “NO” to all of it!

It’s a stumper…but…the doll hutch (as much as I wanted it) was literally the first stop!  Hard to pull the trigger on a hundred-spot right out of the gate! 

Y’all didn’t think I was serious about that barrel bar, didya?  That’s even a little crazy for me and I’m pretty darn crazy!  I think Debbie got it right…if I had been shopping for my brother it would have been a YES!  And I loved the point Sherry made…it would have been a space eater in Mighty, she knows me too well!

The band hats…man…I struggled!  But that’s the kinda thing I totally heart and no one on this earth would ever buy from me!

The shabby stool…what was not to love?   But there was no room in it to make a few dollars!

The elf…another struggle, but kinda the same as the band hats, so I passed on him too!

Since no one got it totally right…and since I’m in charge of the RULES…for everyone that said *NO* on the barrel bar you get THREE, everyone else gets one!

I’d like to say a gigantic THANKS to everyone for playing!  Tricia and I sat up til the wee hours most every night to get our posts up!  We giggled lots and wondered who would stop by and what your guesses would be!

It has meant the WORLD to us!

You can continue to comment through Wednesday!  Someone WILL have a lucky Friday the 13th!  We will be doing a special post to announce the WINNER! 

And, whether you knew it or not, every time you commented you were also entered in the SweetTalk Halloween Package give-away!  I’ll be picking a winner for that later this month!  So keep those comments coming!

It’s one heck-of-a-lucky month!

I can’t end without a coupla more Fun-Fun-FUNNY signs!

in case you can’t see it too well, it says: hollow for don or arlene

yes, folks, that’s “hollow”!  say it in your bestest twang!

seriously!  even i’m at a loss for words…

In closing this big *adventure* I have to say thanks from the bottom of my Texas-sized-heart to my sweet friend Tricia…btw…be sure to check out her postshe and her bald guy ROCK!  They are gracious, generous and a ton-o-fun! 

I am so blessed to know them and each of you!  It’s been a benefit of blogging I never anticipated!

game on…here’s your SIGN!

First things first…congrats to Sandi for guessing correctly what the little “thingies”  are that were posted in game on!  She gets her name in the hat an additional FIVE times!  But everyone who guessed gets their name in the hat too!

There were lots of good guesses and some funny ones too!  But the correct answer is: the “m” part hooked on to the Christmas tree branch and the ”flower” part held the candle! 

Okay, that was fun!  Thanks everyone for playing!

Now, in case you don’t know…I HEART words!  You can browse around SweetTalk to read all about my fascination and maybe discover the words you love too!

In game #2 it’s about WORDS!  All of these are funny, but one of them had me doubled over!  It’s your job to figure out which words I have yet to stop laughing about!

in case you’re wondering…i did not waste valuable shopping time for an evaluation…

right.  like a little ol’ load limit would stand between us and JUNK…

uh, i think that’s suppose to be “lonely” but what do i know…

“crap” is one of my favorite words and i use it often…

oh help me…the homemade sign…

I’ll tell you, I got a good chuckle out of all of these…but one of them pushed me right over the edge!  HAPPY GUESSING!

I have more good news cuz there’s a SweetTalk give-away this month too!  So for every comment you leave you are also being entered in the Halloween Package give-away too!  How excited are you?

And…we had a blast shopping for the *adventure* give-away today!  We put some fun things aside for the WINNER!  If you just jumped in the game…it’s not too late to get in….check out the rules!

Now don’t forget to hop over and see Tricia…it’s all about Hillbilly Tacky and she is delivering the best in tacky!
