Mid January

Good Evening Everyone!

It's already January 15th and I have not wished all of my friends a very Happy New Year. My last post was about our antiques show in November and then I think I went to sleep, lol.

What we thought was going to be a kick back and chill December turned out just the opposite. We worked three weekends with our auctioneer in additional to our regular Tuesday auctions of which some were cancelled thus having to pick-up Saturday/Sunday work.

We were also expecting family/friend to come for Christmas/New Year's visit but that did not happen which I do have to say weather played a part in that.

And then the Wednesday before Christmas my last duck past away. This hit me like a ton of bricks. I raised ducks from day one of moving to Pennsylvania way back in February of 1988. I am getting better, but I do forget and say to my self  "oh I need to go check on the duck".

So, now we are in mid January and stuff is happening which I will save for another post, that way I won't be at a lost for words and not blog, like that would ever happen.

Have a good evening and if you have a clear sky, go check out that Full Wolf Moon.

Happy December

Hope all of you are doing well and not stressing yourselves out, Ha Ha. Yes, we all do it no matter what we tell ourselves.

Our antiques show last weekend was a hit, best one that we have had at this venue. Now its time to get ready for the next one which is in early March, never too early to start buying those treasures that our wonderful customer's are looking for.

I have not started to decorate yet :-(  around the house so I thought that maybe I would start with my blog and that will get me started.

Have a wonderful and festive weekend no matter what you do. Just take care of yourself.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Our pond with a dusting of snow on Tuesday morning. And yes that is a thin layer of ice under the snow.

October

First day of October, the beginning of the last quarter for the year of 2013. Where does it go?

I surely don't have the answer! It seems like it was just Labor Day. I guess the saying "Time flys when you are having fun", really is true.

Les and I have been busy, busy with working for the auctioneers, which is our FUN, lol.

Enjoy your day friends.

Hey It's Friday

Hopefully many have the day off today, but I know my retail gals are hard at work and for them I wish big dollar sales today, lol.

I was back outside this morning pulling more weeds and cutting back stuff, where does it all come from. My yard is in serious trouble, with all the rain that we have been having and then if its not raining we are usually working. So, now I am left with a big mess, too embrassed to show before pictures but maybe some after pictures we will see.

I have errands to run today, so I need to step it up. Have a wonderful day my friends.

Happy 4th of July

Hope everyone is enjoying their day. Firecrackers are going off already in our neck of the woods. Cats are not happy, me neither, it gets quite and I forget and then BANG and I jump about six feet. But, that's what part of the day is all about I guess.

Worked in the yard for a bit this morning before I said enough of this sweaty work, lol. Just hanging out, Sausage, Peppers, Onions and Tomatoes are simmering on the stove for dinner.

Enjoy your evening. Talk to you soon.

Hazy, Hot and Humid

Please note: I may have posted to the Herbal Bouquet in error, see I said I get squirrely from being in the AC too long.

So, let's try this again. Yep the three H's are upon us. And if you have not been warm enough, the Dog Days of Summer began today. We have been getting rain just about every day or night for weeks now, and it appears that we are in this strange weather pattern thru Wednesday of next week.

Les and I have just come off a busy June full of auctions and pic-ups for the auctions. So, we are looking for a bit of down time. But, Summer is the time for auctions and since we making this one source of our income, guess where we will be in July?  We will be doing our weekly Tuesday auction a pick-up with one of the auctioneers and then another auction mid-July, so we won't have too much down time. And when the rain stops or lets up a bit I need to go outside with a big ole weed wacker and wack away, lol.

We wish everyone a Happy 4th of July. Enjoy your day with family and friends and be safe.

Talk to you all real soon.
