Furniture Feature Friday – Favorites & a Link Party
Well, I’m back on the road again today. My niece has the lead roll in a play and that’s a good excuse to pay some family a short visit. I’ll be back to preparing for Lucketts next week, but I get a bit of a break from the sanding, painting, pricing and shopping. (Well, maybe […]
More Finds & Dried Magnolia Wreath
I had grander plans for my post today, but you know how plans can change. I was called around lunch to pick up one of my boys from school, because he had a swollen eye. I figured he had poked it or rubbed it or something like that. Well, when I got to school, I […]
Do you have any tape?
As I shared in my last post, I spent a few days on Long Island, New York with a group of teenagers working on Hurricane Sandy relief projects. While preparing for the trip, I tried to think of ways I could use some of the relationships I’ve established through my blog to help. I didn’t […]

The perfect candidate & the perfect match
As you probably know, I’m on the hunt for things to fix up to take to Lucketts, especially furniture. I have to be focused on building the stash, but a couple of pieces that I intended for the fair are staying in my house. One of them, the vanity/desk is just too perfect for my […]
Victories, Defeats & Christmas in April
I’ll start off with the victories. I made it through the first block (4 weeks) of P90x. I can already see and feel improvements in my fitness and have lost some pounds and inches. I’m going for walks with my family and teaching my six year old how to play tennis. I’m finding some balance, […]
