A tribute to Papaw

I'd like to take a moment and write a small tribute.  My papaw Story went to heaven 30 years ago.  I still miss him greatly,  I think and  speak of him often.  He is immensely missed by many.  He was a self educated, hard working, hard headed conservative.  The school of hard times is where he learned most.  He started his family at the beginning of the great depression.  I can hear him now speaking about life and politics.  I don't have to wonder what he'd say today about our present situation with our new president.  He'd gasp at the signing of the largest pork barrel bill ever signed by any president..... wasting money on wasteful pet projects to help the economy?
Papaw would really laugh and say, " I reckon common sense is not so common anymore." Ha

Love, and miss Papaw
Rob

Vintage goodie

I want one of these.  Would you believe they can go for lots of money.  I mean way too much for it really isn't that old.  I remember them making good popcorn.

Trash to treasure

Just look at this.  My daughter Jenny found this chair for a mere 4.99, table a mere 2.00 from me, a little work and bam.  Simply yummy.  How bout those other cute treasures on her table?




My win from http://www.averymarydesign.blogspot.com

Gabby will get a new quilt

A win for Gabby & I

Guess what?  GabbyGal & I won some 3 inch squares of fabric, some of them are even vintage.  We check a very mary design blog often.  She likes thrift stores like we do.  Enjoy her blog very much.  She also has a store on Etsy.  I buy on there some as I do on Ebay.  I am going to make Gabby a new quilt as we all know she deserves it and simply needs a new one.  Such a lift for me on this awful dreary day here in Georgia.  Very Mary is also entertaining as well.  Go check out her blog http://www. averymarydesign.blogspot.com  and her Etsy shop as well, you won't be sorry.  Thanks again for the win.
