Kewpie Vacation

 Went on a day trip out of town. I took Kewpie for some documentation of the trip.

 We stopped at McDonald's for breakfast

 Highway shot

 Arrived in the town of our destination and used the bathrooms at The Bay.

 Picture of me downtown, with one of the many painted buildings

 Taken from the window of an antique store (Obviously a antique window too) *heheh*

Baby Carriage

 Awesome chair!

 Kewpie could not have been happier ..... he found some relatives. TOO BAD they were locked up in a glass case in the Salvation Army.

 Stopped in at Value Village

 Walmart

 Kewpie did a little rock climbing!

 I purchased this fringe dress from Value village

 Accessorized with Yellow and white Jewelry

 I just found these last week. They are one of my fave purchases of the year so far right next to Beatrice my carpet bag purse.

 Bought these for a 5'er on Saturday morning at a garage sale. A little more than I would have liked to spend... but I have been trying to not be a total cheapo! *hahaha*

 

Vaseline glass dish purchased from Salvation Army.

 

It has been a month since my last post. The reasoning is because of work.

One of stores we clean was supposed to switch over to Spring hours at the beginning of April. And it STILL HAS NOT HAPPENED YET. I was so looking forward to be able to clean a little less and have a bit more time for my hobbies. It can't be much longer before we get the go ahead. I mean Spring did start here on March 20 "WHAT'S THE FREAKIN HOLD UP?"

 

 

Shhhh don't tell anyone... I went thrifting

I had no plans to go today, but sometimes you just get a swift kick in the pants.. or dress for alot of you. I woke up and was about to start applying my makeup. Normally I browse online selling sites (example: Craigslist) and see what's being sold. After that I enjoy some blogger with my coffee. This morning was different! I got on the computer starting browsing ads when I seen "Five Dollar bag sale" (At a local thrift in town, that I do not go to often because there prices are higher than some others I frequent. It said it included clothes, books, housewares & toys. Pretty much everything except their prized items.. You know the ones they want the big bucks for.
Well so much for makeup!! TO HECK WITH IT! The ad was posted 40 min or so before I saw it I need to get there quick. I jumped into some flip flops, grabbed my phone and wallet and was out the door like lightning!

Here is what I managed to get in a plastic grocery bag.
