I've gone blog crazy! I'm cleaning things out around here and just put up a new blog: http://whatwillugiveme.blogspot.com

I've got a couple things on there right now...yarn and a little tin heart. I'll leave these up for a week; make an offer if you're interested! Best offer wins...and I'm not even looking just for cash; you can offer your first born child if you'd really like to (although, I've got one of my own that has yet to leave the house, so I may not take yours...)

So pop on in and see what shows up throughtout the week! And make an offer I can't refuse!

This is a really cool idea.

Hubby told me last night after bringing in my second box of treasure from my treasure chasing that maybe that was "enough junking" for awhile. JUNK! Do you believe that?

Hmpff.

One man's junk is another mans's treasure. Can't wait to see what you got Tracey. Just as long as there isn't any owl barf. haha

Babs, tell hubby that it is NOT junk, it is "junque", a much higher class of merchandise! And so much better than visiting WalMart. ;-)

I've tried to find a suitable exercise video for women my age...but they haven't made one called "Buns of Putty"

GREAT idea, Tracey.....and love the "desperate horsewife" description of yourself. Looking forward to seeing your treasures! And what is junk except "already appreciated later-to-be-pricey antiques of the future tenderhearted"? Babs, just smile and tell your husband you're just "getting in while the getting's good"! Nance

Babs! Blasphemous is the word that comes to mind.. Perhaps you'd like to trade some of that junk?

Laura...brilliant! Now I simply must list owl barf...vomit...just not poop...

lol - yes blasphemous is right. I've been thinking about it. My camera won't talk to my compy anymore (they had a tiff) so all pics need to be loaded on hubbys puter and then transferred.

Junque. I like that. Maybe that will be the title of the blog page. My Junque Your Junque? lol
Actually hey, thats available. Okay I'm off an rolling here... mind if I link to you? Can I do that? This is my first blog outside of myspace which was my very first, first blog. :)

Hi Tracey, Would you be interested in sharing a couple photos of your beautiful horses. I love to oil paint and have always wanted to paint a horse.

Junque is what we have always called it around here....in fact some of the art Rob and I create together we coined as "junque-art" on our website. We have nothing up yet as most of what we have made has already been sold, just wanted to throw that in there....it's like calling Target, Target-Boutique....I love it!

Babs I know how you feel. I've gone to hiding my Junque in the trunk of my car and then sneaking it out when my DH isn't looking or gone. About a month ago I almost got caught with a trunk full (I have a HUGE trunk). My Dh returned home earier then expected. I was think I might have a problem with Junque hunting. Do they have a Junque Anonymous? I think I actually have stuff in my trunk as I write. Maybe this is why my DH is looking for a smaller car for me and why he loves it when I drive my motorcycle to work. Can't stop at the garbage piles or thrift store that way. I will for ever be a Junquette!

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

I have junque stashed in my car! I thought I was the only one that did that. OMGoodness if he only knew how much weird stuff I had stashed. (Most of it though was intended as a christmas gift. That can all go, it would be too sad for me to keep it.)

I still get nervous whenever honey goes out there! - I'm so glad to find kindred spirits. :)

Does anyone else collect trivets?

Tracey, what kind of things do you collect that you would especially like in trade?

Junque in the trunk...I think you ought to call it Junque in the Trunque!

Linda, have you seen my mustang blog? Tons of pictures there of the girls! http://mustangdiaries.blogspot.com

Okay, now...someone's got to come along and outbid AuntGeorge on the owl barf...she's offering Shih Tsu castings and I really don't want to make that swap, lol! I'm seeing that definite guidelines will need to be put into place here

Tracey I won't be selling them. I paint because I like to and most all of my paintings are in the family. I certainly will give credit where credit is due and you DO have beautiful photos.

Okay, so here's the trick about stashing stuff in the car....bring it in after a period of time of keeping it in the car - it can be an hour, a day, a week. When hubby asks if it is something new, you can say, "Oh heavens no, I've had this for a while!"

Truthfulness depends on how one defines "a while." Warning: hubby catches on quickly if the tactic is used too often. ;-)



I've tried to find a suitable exercise video for women my age...but they haven't made one called "Buns of Putty"

Linda, if you want to sell them that's fine with me...I didn't know if you were using the photos on another site or not, which is why I asked for credit
