Good Girl ~~ Bad Thoughts


So today I was a good girl. A very good girl. The only place I went today was to take a car load of furniture to auction. Then I came home and I cleaned the house. I cleaned the whole house, wood work and all. The whole time thinking of where I could be, and what finds I was missing out on. It was depressing, so I scrubbed harder. Only good thing I don't have to clean like this for awhile. And now the weather man says we are going to have snow and ice. Snow I don't mind, but ice? Guess that means no Sales By Helen tomorrow. Oh well.


Now, I would like to pass an award on to The Fab Five. Linda was kind enough to pass it on to me, so I would like to pass it on to a few of my blogging friends. When I started this blogging, this past September, I had no idea what to expect. I have found lots of friends. Not the kind you know, but the kind you want to go have coffee with or even better a nice glass of really goooooood wine.

What a great thing to say Dona about all of us - talk over coffee or great glass of wine!

Thank you, I know Alicia and have been to Wanda's but better go check on the other ladies so when we all get together it's that much more fun over that great glass of wine.

Dona, I so enjoy reading your blog, it's great to have things in common with people you usually wouldn't meet isn't it? I've found myself wondering what you're doing, what treasures - and the best thing is being happy you found it because you're a treasure hunter after my own heart!

Glad you scrubbed today (get out some of that frustration over not shopping with some real elbow grease!), I need to do that very badly myself!

Thank you Dona. I am honored (and it's such a cute award too!).

I hope you get out tomorrow, maybe the weatherman is wrong - I'll cross my fingers that he is and you get to Helen's (without the cops this time!).

You made my day!!!!

You were a good girl today. Wish I could say the same. I went thrifting today, but I didn't spend too much I don't think. Found some good stuff, but I do need to stop for awhile and make some money instead of spending it. Thanks so much for visiting me. I always love to hear from you.

Thank you! I love your blog, and I can't wait to meet you. The internet really had opened up so many doors for extraordinary friendships! I'll bring the wine! ;-)

Hi Dona,too bad about the weather,I didn't get out either...but my husband did.
Did you find anything at that cute little place in Lancaster?
New clothes and a trip in April sounds like fun. Hugs, Linda

On Dona I am just so honoured to get this award, you have no idea! And to share it with the other ladies well I just feel like the "bees knees" I can tell you. Now I do know miss tracie, who's blog is just gorgeous and have visited Wanda but have to catch up with the other lovely bloggers on the list.
I would just LOVE to have a cuppa with you all, can you imagine, we would have SO much to chat about.
Maybe one day eh??
thankyou again you are such a sweetie!
