I Scored at a Garage Sale Yesterday

I went to a garage sale at a retirement community in Belton yesterday. They have it all the time. It's in a big building, it's all neatly organized and they always have a deal (usually everything you can fit into a paper grocery sack) for $3.50. And the best part...they usually have lots of good old stuff! Today was no exception. Look what I got!
Old dishes, old Rx bottles (?), 2 small glasses that would be perfect for Allie's American Girl doll, a couple of glass bottles, glass spice bottle, silver salad spoon and fork, glass cake stand, plus that other stuff and 3 pairs of shoes for Allie (not pictured). My favorite is the wooden divider up front. It's an antique. It came out of an old cash register, the bottom is rounded. The lady who sold it to me said it was her father in-laws. I scored that one on the way out the door. But since it wouldn't fit in my bag, I asked them if they would just take $5.00 for it all since I didn't have time to load a second bag. And they did!

Of course this little stop made me a few minutes late to Allie's school where I spent about 6 hours total (2 shifts) helping out with enrollment.

Today we're headed off to the dentist, lunch with daddy, then to Leavenworth for the afternoon.

But first....I need to unload these CLEAN goodies out of the dishwasher....

I've been a Bad Blogger Lately!

I've been so busy lately, but it finally started to slow down a bit.

We had a great vacation in Wisconsin. I really should get some pictures posted. But not now...

I found out yesterday that nobody signed up for my Party Pack class at Captured Memories this Saturday. **SIGH**. But really not so sad. I'm not prepared. And I'd rather not teach the class at all then to teach to just a couple of people. It's a lot of work preparing and travelling to and from the scrapbook store for a small amount of money. When I designed the class, I knew it would go over big or fail miserably. I just don't think it floated anybody's boat, but I don't see it as a reflection of my work. Here is a picture of the projects.

But it wasn't all bad news. I found out that my September fall layouts class has sold out. I didn't have anybody signed up prior to July 29. But at that class I brought in my class samples for September. Since that time, 15 have signed up and 3 (that I know of) have been turned away. I contacted the store owners and we decided to open up another class. I'm soooooooooo excited about this. Here is a peek at the projects in case anybody local wants to sign up...

Well...I'm off to help out with school enrollment.

Thanks for looking!
