Happy... Memorial Day.

Everything...has been so...

Insane, I completely...forgot what day it was, today...and yesterday.

Probably...a good thing.

We had a Huge...Memorial Day Weekend Sale...here, for years.

Friends, and Neighbor's would bring things...it was quite an event.

Since the Highway Construction...we've cancelled it, the last 3 years.

John, and I...couldn't visit Graves, over that weekend.

The above picture...was a year, or...two, before John left.

He, and I...were taking flowers to our Loved Ones...that day.

<3

It...was Such...a Beautiful...Day.

John, putting up The Flag.

He always did...on Memorial Day.

{That's about...the only time you'd see John, during The Sale.

: ) }

John...So Loved...his flags.

His...Country.

<3

{actually...the above image, was when John put The Flag Up...on a September 11th.

<3 }

The below images, are of our Granddaughter, Scarlett...

the year, after we lost John.

I bought this little, vintage Doll Dress, and...before I sold it, had Miss. Scarlett...

model it.

<3

I, wished...so, John...could've seen her, in it.

<3 <3 <3 

Wish...now, I never would've sold it.

Happy Memorial Day...to All.

Thank You...

to All, 

who have Sacrificed for Our Freedom.

Love to You.

Prayers, for All.

Sometimes...ya just have to laugh.

was the above movie clip.

The Movie Clip, above...

reminds me of Fairfax, City Hall...and IDOT District 6.

oh my.

5 years...of trying to tell them, show them...

'They're Going The Wrong Way'...

has...nearly done me in.

I, Thank God...this morning, for letting me see it all...

I'm kinda Fussy, when it comes to taking many pictures, before things are put together.

I remember...Years Ago...at Nashville, Heart of Country....

a woman came through the show...during set up, and asked if she could take pictures of our booth, thought it was cool.

: )

I was up on a ladder, the booth wasn't near...'set'.

I, said... "No way!"

Not until it's Done.

; )

My then, Show Partner...said...

"Do you know who that was?"

I, said... No. 

It was a very Prominent Person...from a Very...Prominent Magazine.

I, didn't care who it was.

No pictures...of half done....work.

; )

When we go into an Estate...

we clean, sort...and stage.

We use everything that's there, and, try to help it flow.

: )

Many times...like now...the Home, is also...for Sale.

We want to help Everything....Dance Together!!

Hahahaha!!

Sometimes...it's difficult.

Everything has to be out of drawers, cupboard's and storage areas, cleaned, priced, and...displayed.

{God... Help...Whomever has to Conduct 'My' Estate Sale!!! 

Holy Smokes!!! 

Yikes!!!

I'm looking around the dining room, as I write.

Oh My Lord!!!

Hahahaha!!!

{I...may have to do it myself, before I 'Go'...I, don't know anyone...who could Take This One....On!!! Hahahaha!!!  }

Thankfully...The Rabbit Hole, and doing Shows...

 has Taught me Much...about Vision, 

and squeezing 20 pounds of Sugar...into a 5 pound Bag!!

Hahahaha!!!
