vets flea market yesterday...









yeah, the weather held up for us yesterday!
it got a little scary for a bit, with some raindrops which made me scurry around and pack up some smalls and move the fabric covered chairs under the tarp, but the sun peeked through after that...
and, there were a ton of people there yesterday...i shared a booth with karen, a new friend from long beach...she has great bottles, with shells...and, it was fun to get to know her.
we did pretty good...the crowd was a bit different than the normal crowd...
my sweet mom made the trek out...i had to wheel her around in her new little pink walker that has a seat when she got tired, but it was great to have her and see her out/about enjoying the people and fresh air...
christilynn came by and took my mom up/down an aisle too!
here's some pictures i would like to share...
the only sad thing, was that i got one thing stolen, a little vintage pedistal...but i guess they needed it more than i did...i truly don't understand why people take things that don't belong to them...i don't think i will ever understand that...
remember, if you ever see anything on my blog you just have to have...contact me and we can make arrangements to have it shipped to you...
enjoy your day!

vet's flea market this sunday...

if you have not gone to the vets flea market in long beach, you just have to go!  i think it's one of the best flea markets around...
of course, there's rose bowl, but you can find some great treasures...
let's face it...a lot of the great dealers sell at all the local flea markets anyways...rose bowl, ivc and vets...some even travel out to ventura {which i want to sell at this spring too}...
i will be selling at vets this sunday and the weather is supposed to be perfect for flea marketing...
bring your hat, your cart and sunscreen and do some shopping!
i will be in the white section...hope to see you there!

thank you for your thoughts and prayers...

thanks to all of you for your thoughts and prayers...christilynn just called me from her hospital bed {9:23 p.m.} to let me know that the surgery was a success and the docs got all the cancer/tumors...she is clean...and, the best part is that she does not have to do chemo...praise god! she might even be able to go home tomorrow, depending on how she feels...
she has four weeks of recovery, but if you know christilynn like it do, she will be painting something in two...
thank you jesus...
