Dental appointments, here I come.

Week of July 27-31st

This past week has been very busy!! On Monday my grandson started his trek back home to N. Y. He came for his sister's birthday, a surprise to us all. We were very happy to see him!!! I dreaded to see him go, but he was to be back in time to start his new classes. It was a long, long, trip!!!!!! He drove some 58 hundred miles plus!!!!!!!! Yikes!! Only the young can do this and still be okay!!!
Then on Tuesday I had a dental appointment to have a tooth repaired, I thought, instead it was too far gone, and had to make an appointment to have it pulled. Oh, and then of course it lead to other things. Implants, etc, etc, and will cost an arm and leg before it is all done!! Well, I have to have some choppers to eat, and look half way decent, so there you are. I told the dentist I would look beautiful for my 50Th anniversary next year and it would be worth it. :-) Except for Tuesday, I walked my usual at the lake and volunteered at the local senior center. Can't keep a good woman down! :-) Although yesterday I did not feel that great, today I feel normal, well normal as I get. :-) Granddaughter will be over later, and will stay the night. We will go to the art and wine festival later and have fun looking at all the crafts. Hubby is gone until Sunday, he is in valley giving his sister a break and he is looking after his Mom. So things are rather quiet here. I was glad of it, when not feeling well. I got a call from my grandson in Florida this morning, and that was nice!! They were fine. He has been interviewing and photographing lots of different celebrities these past few weeks. Snoop Dog is one coming up. He is getting quite good at it. Well, need to get a bite to eat, so bye for now. Antique Rose

Tea Anyone?

Duh! Forgot Something.

Hello again, started off by telling you about the week-end, forgot that
it was about an estate sale. Yikes, just went off on what I found, who knew
where I got them!! Well, now you know. :-) Antique Rose

PS- Tried some new "burgers", which are made up of black beans, etc. quite
yummy, and husband liked them too, which was a great plus, otherwise never to
be seen again. Till next time~~~~~~~Bye!

Busy Weekend

Hello,
Friday started off the weekend. A pretty good one this time, wished I had more money to spend, but got some great buys non the less. Some creamers, cups and saucers, and so old pictures which I think one of the granddaughters will like as they chronicle the life of one from baby to her 5o Th wedding anniversary. Interesting, I believe. We'll see how she likes them. Then Saturday we went back, husband wanted to check things out, and everything was 20% off, and I found some really great buys on old linens. I got six large scarves and five small ones and a hand-painted Nippon plate for a total of six dollars and 60 cents!!! Whoopee!!! What a buy!!! I don't often find those bargains. :-) Then after lunch my husband and I took a ride to Danville. I found a bargain figurine(new) at 75% off that was a 4Th of July theme/patriotic with a soldier on a horse with a flag(he was a 1776 type). Nice. Can always use that for different holidays. Then got two bags with cute painted ladies on them, one for my sister who collects watermelon. I have decided that we will go there on our next Antique trip. One of my favorite stores, "The Cottage Jewel", is moving to a larger facility and she said that there was going to be a couple of other stores opening soon. The ladies of the club have enjoyed our other trips there. You are limited to 25 radius for our trips and so we repeat certain areas. I don't think they will be disappointed at all. I found out today that my grandson who is visiting from New York will be leaving tomorrow, so that is sad, but we loved getting to see him two times instead of the usual once a year visit. He will be attending classes for 10 months in Syracuse, New York. Well, that is it for now. Ta Ta Antique Rose

Nothing like watermelon in the good ole summertime.
