flea market finds...

the girls and i were selling at the ivc flea market this sunday and it was an odd day...the weather was kinda gloomy, there were a ton of people out looking and shopping, the parking lots were full, but not really buying {i guess it's a sign of the times/economy}, which i'm kinda gettin sick of hearing, but it's reality...

but, i do want to say, that it's hard for all of us out there trying to sell our treasures when people come by and are harsh and rude...offering us way less than we have on the price tags...and, when we say no to their offensive price, they look at us like we're crazy!

i have to say, christilynn, janice and i are very fair on our price tags and we almost always, always, always give better deals...

we flea marketers work very hard...we search for the great stuff in we put in our booth every month, we paint and fix the items up and lug them out to the flea market at the wee hours of the morning...some of us get there at 2:30 a.m.

i'm all about the deal, but i try hard not to offend the hard working flea marketers...

we do it for the love of the flea market and selling our treasures, but we also do it to make a little profit for the hard work we do...

enough said on that issue...

i hope you enjoy the pictures of our booth...we love what we do and just want to share...

if you find something you can't live without...contact me...

have a blessed day...

memorial day...

I just wanted to pause a moment to remember all those soldiers lives that were lost in the war...they died for me, my family, you and your families and for our freedom...

i've been to the vietnam memorial wall in washington d.c., and it's overwhelming and left me speechless...

we went to the arizona memorial in hawaii last summer and it also left a huge impact on me...

to all of those families that have lost a loved one in a war...i'm so sorry for your loss but forever grateful as we are blessed to live in a land of the free...

my dad served in the korean war and i remember some of the stories he shared with me...

if i had it my way, there would be no war...

blessings...
