Saving up nuts for Winter

 
Mid last week we had our first big snow fall. I opened the door to let the dog out at around 2 a.m. and this is what greeted me.
 
 
*Snowy Berries*
 
By Saturday the snow had melted but that didn't mean it wasn't chilly. Here I am in the Salvation Army parking lot. I didn't find alot on this particular visit.
I seen a Santa head blo mold and I wanted it BAD! And the Mr. said NO! and I was MAD!
(But I listened)
@#&%  WHY did I do that??
I kicked myself hours later when the store was closed and I looked them up on E-bay. So I had planned in my mind I would go back on the next opening morning. I knew there was a 85% chance Santa head would be gone. "He was" *Uhggg*
To whoever bought him.....
"If I wasn't Married your Santa head would have been mine"
Jus sayin...
 
Speaking of Santa look who I met on that visit.

 
A Jolly dancing Santa in the Salvation Army front window. I thought it was marvelous when I read Curtise's post about her weekend. She met Santa too.
 
 
And was also rocking the faux fur!
*Woo woo*
 


 *Headed to another thrift store*
I did some retail shopping here is four new things I have purchased.

 
 The red one is mine the blue is for Mr. Coco
I found them at Homesense for $3.99 each
They also say "Keep Calm and carry on in the inside rim"
 
 
 Apparently I am nuts about nuts! *Seriously* I could not pass up these Acorn statues or finials whatever you want to call them.
I paid only $4 for the large one and $3 for the smaller.  The original prices were something like $22 and $18
(This is why it's always a smashing idea to hover around the clearance section)
P.s. I picked up another owl last night in blue for $2
Now the orange owl is not lonely!
 
The Weather is calling for snow on Friday. Looks like I will be bundled up again for the weekend.
