DEAL OF THE YEAR !! TWIN BED




"Don't  look for anything anytime
 but look for everything all ALL times....."
                 Mr Goodwill Hunting

Last Saturday, I made a point of swinging by a yard sale, 
that I had been seeing signs for it ALL week..... 
It  was just a few blocks from my house and  
Somehow, I just knew, 
with all the advanced publicity,
 that this one was going to be a doozy. 



I pulled up... and thought...
"I never knew there was a Church back here!!!"
The second I shut my car door,
 and looked up, 
I saw it..
......like out of a dream.... 
and I tried not to break into a FULL RUN..
....to get first DIBS on
....the most amazing twin BED
I had ever seen
The man said they had just pulled this out, that they forgot it when all the 
"Antique People were here at the crack of dawn".
I said...
"It was meant to be"
 and 
 without hesitating, I paid the sticker price..
.a whopping $25...
 .... the very nice man helped me put the pieces 
in my car and I drove away with a HUGE smile on my face.
(I also got one of those overhead projectors...for $5)
     
As I drove off, I thought..."wait a minute...
did they put TWO beds in my car?" 
I pulled over ran back and looked in my trunk 
and LO AND BEHOLD, 
I had TWO AMAZING TWIN BEDS FOR $25!!!!! 
This WAS INDEED my Lucky day!!!



I know EXACTLY what I wanT to do...

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!!

ART CAMP WEEK #2

  2. I hope I am remembering correctly, but a few days ago you were talking about things falling down around you, etc. But you said it with such acceptance...I just feel like these are a little blessing for you for accepting things beyond your control.

    OKay, that sounds a lot dumber than it did when it occurred to me, I hope you know what I mean.
