If You Can Finish This Post

Hmm, today's post.....I'll begin with the weekend. NOT GOOD. Coming from a family of mechanics....it's natural to replace things on your own cars. Mine needed the brakes changed (Do things go smooth when hubby works on things?.....NEVER). It's funny though.....when my hubby gets aggravated there is a vein that literally pops out on his forehead. (I would have taken a picture but, Even I am not that brave). The little daughter and I witnessed the "vein" all weekend. Let's just say not too pleasant. 
I did find a yard sale while my mom and myself were one our way to the store (you were right LV...didn't last very long)!!!!! These yard sale finds shouldn't really count because I didn't go "yard saleing" on purpose.....it was an accident.

 I picked up all of these finds on a table after she told me EVERYTHING ON THE TABLE was $.25.


 So, with the $5.00 coupon in hand to take to the store I only really saved $4.25 with my extra purchases!!!
                                                                        Only me!!!!


 On to yard sale finds from 2 weeks ago. I forgot to post these!!!! Monday wasn't any better. BOTH my girls are gone w/grandparents this week!!! Not only that.....husband has had to work extra long hrs. Dream for some.....NOT FOR ME!!!! It has been horrible. I threatened to latch on to my 10yr olds leg and beg her not to go....(although thinking it was a great plan...I didn't)!!!
(By the way entire set of curtains....$.50)


 My family should REALLY know better than to leave me alone for that long. I've not changed major furniture around in the house for going on 2yrs now (due to the fact I was in school and too busy)......but this week......
Not good!!! I moved.....moved furniture again.....moved a third time......gotten aggravated because my vision didn't work out the way I had planned....and refused to move it back.
(Cute bag....came in a bag at a $5.00 bag sale...perfect to take to yard sales)


 So, yes I have furniture in the middle of my living room....a path through the house.....for NOTHING!!! I guess I'm going to go buy a shelf (just so happens I have one in mind already) but, until then....I will leave the path of destruction alone.
(another bag sale find)

 I've been in one of my moods this week. So I'm going to eat and drink my sorrows away.....(No not that!!!!)


A Mountain Dew and finish my Snickers......What Were You Thinking?....tee hee hee
Oh by the way for those of you who actually finished this post....you really are true friends and I love you and thank you for it!!!
If you get bored...I'm here....
All week.....
Alone!!!!!
 Have a great Tuesday!

  5. With a "big vein" popped out on you know who, you needed to go garage sale hopping. It is best to leave a situation like that alone.
