A busy, busy, busy day.
Did I mention it was busy? ha.
I only took these two pictures.
One is my not-so-secret admirer. lol. :)
He's a gruff, grouchy, quick tongued old man but for some reason
I melt his old cold heart. He gets in my line to cash out...even if it's
the longer one. He always tells me I look nice. And once he tapped my
wedding rings with his pen and said, "He's a lucky man."
Um, yeah. He's got it bad. Makes me smile. haha.
The other is what they were calling a "Gone With The Wind" lamp.
Maybe it could have been a Polly Anna Lamp?
It was beautiful!
And I'm exhausted. I did bring home a box full of 'trash',
which I'll have to wash up tomorrow.
I'm sure some of it will end up in the etsy shop.
Thanks also, for those of you who voted for Jack!
See my sidebar. He's winning by quite a few votes!
What did you do today?
♥
Another Facebook friend just posted a photo of her kitty inside the fridge. SO cute.
ReplyDeleteLove the Gone With the Wind lamp, especially after our stay at the Gone With the Wind Bed and Breakfast this past June. Very pretty! How much did it sell for?
PS. I voted today. Do I have to vote everyday?
DeleteYou are only allowed to vote once! And thank you!

ReplyDeleteI rode along on propane deliveries with my man:)this forenoon and watched a soccer game at school this afternoon. Worked in the flowerbeds for a bit and dreamed of all the landscaping changes I'd like to shake a wand at. The weather was gorgeous!

I love when you work the auction. I know that your Esty Shop will be full of goodies, in a few days!
ReplyDeleteYes, The Mister is a lucky man and so are the rest of the men in your life (and soon to be daughter-in-law), plus all the animals hanging around.
Christine...I was clerking today when 2 Dr. DoLittle dolls were auctioned off! haha. They looked hilarious. I really wish I'd been working the cash table so I could have snapped a picture....or bid on one. hahaha.
DeleteDr. Dolittle Dolls???
DeleteThat's a first!
Didn't know there was such a doll. Now I'm off to Goggle it.
Oh my gosh!
DeleteThere really is a Dr. Dolittle Doll!!! Circa 1967!
There is even a Peewee Herman doll!! Crazy!!!
that is a very cool lamp in your side bar...and haha on the old man....you probably make his day every time he sees you...smiles.
ReplyDeletehaha...I think I do! Poor guy. ha.
DeleteLet me see...what did I do today???
ReplyDelete1. Slept in til 8am
2. Did the laundry
3. Changed the sheets
4. Made split pea soup from a ham bone
5. Baked 3 loaves...a new one...apple pie cake...OMG...delish!
6. Crocheted a new hat for Vivian :o)
7. Allowed my boyfriend to take me out for dinner...
That about sums it up...I hope Jack wins...
Looks like you had a busy day as well...
Cheers!
Linda :o)
Oh, what a nice day you had!
DeleteI guess it is nice to have an admirer and to be able to stay busy. That lamp is really beautiful. So glad you got more "trash". I just wish my hubby would let me buy some, but then I have so much stuff that I could open my own store. And I mean a real store. I would buy that pumpkin in a heartbeat, I love Carnival Glass and it has such a nice history. Maybe someday I will be able to buy something that doesn't take up much room.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Yay for Jack!!
ReplyDeleteAnd yay for your not so secret admirer! Oh dear!!
Take care
x
BETSY! I was exhausted! WHAT! A! DAY!
ReplyDeleteI thought you got a picture of the torture chair?? Oh, and I KINDA wish you woulda gotten a photo of that horrific clown carnival game! TERRIFYING!
The people and people watching is my favorite part!
LOVE my new books! Thanks!
haha...me, too...I slept so hard last night!
Deletethat picture didn't come out...too blurry! I was clerking when that was auctioned off, though, and got a good upclose look at it. Too creepy!
I always love your posts about the "auction day." And I especially like all the "goodies" you bring home from the trash! That makes me wonder about auctions around here... maybe go do some dumpster diving afterwards! Hahahaha... but I haven't yet. And I love the lamp. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteyou do need to find some auctions down there! haha.
DeleteOh, I love that lamp! I'm rootin' for Jack, such a cutie.
ReplyDeletethe lamp was really pretty in person...would look great with the sun hitting it!
DeleteHi Betsy .. just been through all the recent posts - great photos and story line - well you lighten Mr Grumpy's mood every so often - must please him!! The lamp does look very pretty - I hope it's got a good home .. and now hope you feel better?! Cheers Hilary
ReplyDeletethanks, hilary...yes, I suppose it's good I brighten his day! ha. :)
DeleteMy day wasn't so busy as usual, the computer system at work was down - I deleted lots of old emails though! I think the lamp a good deal more appealing than Mr Grumpy, though I think you could charm the hardest of hearts.
ReplyDeletewell, thanks. :) It does make me smile when that old grump tries to be charming! ha.
DeleteI would love to attend an action but would need your advice on what is a true bargain. Glad you make a grumpy person happy, I wonder what his story is.
ReplyDeletepeople usually just go with what they love...they don't really care if it is 'worth' something!
DeleteYou inspire me to find an auction house to work for. My old things addiction makes me envious of the job even though i am sure there are long and boring days too.
ReplyDeleteold things addiction..haha...love that term. I have that addiction, too!
DeleteI'm always exhausted after reading about your worldwind days.
ReplyDeleteInteresting lamp.
Old... he's not old... is he?
um...70's? Yes, that's old. lol....
DeleteSo that's your fan? Can't really blame him for being so smitten...!
ReplyDeleteoh, is that so? :)
DeleteYes. But if he starts calling you "doll," I'll have to have a talk with him...
ReplyDeleteNo pet names...not from him, anyway. I am called 'Love' from someone else, though. ha.
