Free....

Have you ever noticed when you get something for "free"....
it really isn't?
lol....
well it started with my parents getting a new TV and my son asking..."what are you going to do with the old one?"...
"nothing, you can have it"
hooray for him!!!!
and projects for me...
 here it goes...
 first we need something to put it on, I found this dresser for $20.00, added some base molding to the bottom for extra support, $12.00..(see where this free thing is going?)...

got a quart of blue paint, $12.00, and just randomly painted....

then some chalk paint in Graphit $36.00

and painted over all the blue...

but then decided that I should paint his other dresser so it would match...

and now for the sanding, I wanted the under blue to peek thru,

this part was a little scary because see how light it is looking?

I waxed it all with the clear wax and am in the process of putting it in his room,

more pictures later...

see what I mean when you get something for "free"

scary....

little scary last nite!!!

My son and I picked up his tux for formal and I took him to the mall to get some Chinese food, it was pretty empty, we never!! go to the mall in the evening or on weekends, just weird kids there....anyway I asked if he wanted to take it home or just eat there...we decided to eat there, I asked him if he would like to go and check out American Eagle and see whats new...

he says, "no, I am getting a headache" well we are eating and he says, his headache is getting worse and he wants to just take his food home, ok,

home we go...

here is the scary...

there was a shooting in the mall,

if we hadn't left when we did, we would of been right next to the store where the shooting happened!!!

thank GOD for giving him a headache right then!

They think its gang related, of course!

so, a little scared and relieved!!!

ps. after we were home, his headache was gone.

so little time...

SO MUCH TO DO!!!!!
hahaha,  are you feeling like me...
so, I have been super de-hoarding and neglating you,
 I have been trying to stay off the computor....sooooo addicting....and getting stuff done, and as I was walking by my wall I thought I would show you some of my purses...

I started collecting these about 20 years ago, when you could find them so cheap...

I love the silver...

and the details!!!!

but if there is a rose, well, I love them too!!!!

ok, back to the grind! lol!
