Well The way it happened is I was staying home being a good girl, well I was staying home anyway. Then my friend comes over for lunch and I gave her some gifts I had for her. Then she says, hey, want to go to the thrift store, well I was in the car while she was still putting her coat on. Now I thought this is a good thing, because come to think of it I won't be going until after Christmas if I don't go today. Well I got some really nice things and so I want to thank my friend for coming over and insisting I go. So I have had a really good day so far. Beautiful gifts from MARYBETH, and an unexpected trip to the thrift. I don't think I have to cook dinner either, what is going on here?

How funny, Nancy Jo! I left a message on your blog before I saw this post. Do you realized that is 3 whole days until Christmas. I just don't think you'll hold out that long. And besides, I love seeing your "found" treasures ALMOST as much as I love going to the thrift myself! So come one ... make just one more trip ... please!
Blessings, Lea

Nancy, honey it is ok. You are sick. You have an addiction. I have it too. The only cure is a trip to the thrift store. Just remember withdrawal is painful. So go!

It is a terrible illness is it not! I am sometimes more sick than other times. This Holiday season I am committed to going through my dozens of storage totes to see just what I have forgotten that I have bought and organize all my finds so that I have room for more fabulous finds in the up coming year. With my new job I will be out and about in many different cities so you know there will be new thrift stores, rummage sales and garbage days to discover. My husband I am sure is beginning to think I need a 12 step program. He keeps talking about getting me a smaller car with little to no trunk. But i am holding out and on to my Intrepid with the trunk big enough to stow many thrift finds.
Merry Christmas to all!

Pray for our troops to come home safe and soon.
Enjoying the road to the simple life :>) |
