Endless Possiblites!

I'm finding out that the possiblites are endless!! I love finding these neat little treasures!! I felt so behind because of family camp and family vacation but alas i have found finds while on vacation! I'm excited to share and i will as soon as i take pictures. My eye feels trained as i glance around which seems to be a pile of junk BUT then i spot it! At the bottom of the pile where no one seemed to look! There it is!!! A long lost buried treausure! ALLLL MINE!!! Until i list of course. I can't help it, some things I do want for myself. As quickly as i fall in love with an item, i quickly falll out. Only because the thrill of the sale and the thought of making the money motivates me to keep listing. I have this vision that if i keep everything in my house it will end up looking like some of those flea markets. Then i let out a big "pass" an move on from the thought of my house being completely filled with items. Although my studio is starting to look full. I'm am in the midst of finding some shelves, currently the clothing racks arent cutting it. I love this pitcher set that i found!

To Brag or not to brag!

It's crazy how fast my Etsy store has taken off. I listed a few items this morning and they have already sold. I need to start going out again just to get more inventory!!! I have to admit that i am quite excited to get this store up and running, but it seems to be running me! I can't list fast enough. Truly, I am blessed to stay home and purse my dreams of running my own business and loving it! I'm so thankful that i have that ablity. Here are some of the things that you missed out on!

Buried Treasures

So quick update, my journey with ebay has ended and a new path as taken lead. I have opened up another shop selling antiques/vintage things now. WHY, didn't i think of this before i have no clue. But has my mother clearly brought to my attention, I never liked shopping for clothes, so why would i choose that as a living? Yes, the thrill of the sale kept my in the biz longer, but the passion soon quickly faded when my rare finds of good clothing was slim to none.

So i have took on the yet another task as if i need more things to do, but alas i need somthing. I embark on trips to flea markets now, instead of trying to hit 30 yardsales on a saturday. I evenly spread myslef days out with shopping and bonding time with mom. Here are some of the finds:

1967's Fisher Price Pull along toy

Vintage Hobnail Lamps from 1960"s

Orignal Hummer from WW 2

Cheese Box from Kingan's & CO

Retro Lamp Shade

Good times and tons of fun! Check out the store often, as we list weekly!!

Shamelessly hooked on “The Bachelorette"

Guest post written by Tracy Hudson


I don’t watch a whole lot of TV as a librarian, but I do have the guilty pleasure of “The Bachelorette.” Actually, I don’t feel that guilty about loving it, so I guess you could just call it a pleasure.
But don’t assume that I feel the same way about “The Bachelor.” I do watch that show on a regular basis as well but it’s mostly to guess at which woman they’ll pick as the next Bachelorette.
I also keep up with all the tabloid-esque gossip surrounding the winning couples through direct tv satellite internet , like the drama over the recent Bachelor Jake and show winner Vienna’s break-up. True, I loathed her even before he picked her, but I’m just glad that she’s not the current Bachelorette. If that was the case, I might just abandon watching the show altogether and turn to blue wireless internet to find out the results instead of watching it live with bated breath.

Extra, Extra!

Extra, extra! Come an get your tickets!! http://www.ticketamerica.com/boston_celtics_tickets.html  all the basket ball tickets you want! Its hard to find a website that sells all of these. http://www.ticketamerica.com/los_angeles_lakers_tickets.html
Make it a family night, friends night, just because. Just get out of the house! This website is pretty decent. http://www.ticketamerica.com/orlando_magic_tickets.html  I’m not much of a basketball person, but my husband is. March madness seems to be the start of my madness also.
The TV hogging seems to get to me when there’s basketball constantly on. But as long as my husbands happy then I am too. Thankfully for a second TV!!! Save the website to your favorites! http://www.ticketamerica.com/houston_rockets_tickets.html

The New Senior Trendp>

This guest post compliments of Devon Worthing.


A lot more senior citizens are utilizing the Internet today than ever. As a matter of fact, it is turning out to be a trend in the senior citizen community. That is a good thing because the computer is something that everyone who lives in today's society will need to learn how to utilize.
Senior citizens are finding that in addition to ordering prescription refills, the internet is a great place to learn more about miracle ear hearing aids This is very good for them especially when the weather is bad and they are not able to venture outside their homes to get miracle ear pricing.   Hearing aids are something many seniors rely on and before buying they can also find hearing aid reviews  that will help them make an informed decision.
Senior citizens are also using the Internet to purchase their groceries online. Grocery shopping online is something that is very good for people who are not able to venture outside of their homes because maybe you just don't have transportation; this is the case with a lot of senior citizens. To be able to sign on to your computer and shop for whatever groceries that you need is very convenient for them.
They are also signing online to go to their favorite website and place the order for their clothing. They more than likely have been shopping at this particular store for years. The minute they found out that the store was online, it made it even more so convenient for them to want to learn how to use the Internet.
