Saturday News

I really wasn't too interested in going to yard sales this morning, but Micki and I went anyway. There were several communities having sales but we drove by quite a few cause all they had was clothes or baby stuff. I did find a few things. How do you like this sign?
Della had told me that she liked the "Monster High" dolls. I found a suitcase with four Bratz dolls and their wardrobe for $5...
Did you know that in order to change their shoes the entire foot comes off??
She loved them! Even Maxel was having fun.
I did get him a couple of "manly" toys!
Mrs. Potts and Chip from Beauty and the Beast $5...
Ceramic figurine $1...
Willow Tree 'Angel's Embrace' ...$1
Teacups 25 cents each...
More signs for my kitchen $1.50....
Framed dried flowers 50 cents. The lady told me a story about something to do with her mother, Austria, and edelweiss.
This sticker is on the back....
Wire basket $1. I'm going to use this in my deep freezer.
Horseshoe set $5...
Best deal of the day..................FREE!  Tabletop ironing board .......
 ...and a cat picture! Can't beat free!
I shared some pictures on Facebook and Instagram of how the power company trimmed the trees in my yard.

 The shade was gone!

They came back yesterday to trim the large oak and now we have NO shade!!!


 Poor thing! It looks pitiful!
 This is from the backyard. I told Justin that all it needed now was a few buzzards perching on it!
I went to Michael's yesterday while waiting for Best Buy to open. I only needed the Caron Simply Soft, but I couldn't pass up the Caron Cakes!
I needed the Caron Simply Soft to finish the flowers on this shawl....
Still working on the Nuts about Squares CAL.
That's all for now.

Great finds, as always Charlotte! I haven't bought any of the Caron cakes, but I did recently buy some of the Sweet Rolls and Bernat Pop. Looking forward to using them. :)

So sad to hear about your trees and missing shade. Hopefully by next year some of it will be back. Wish it didn't have to be so drastic. Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog. Appreciate it.
