new loot...

on our first road trip yesterday...
to Paris...
Illinois, that is...
we snagged this little/big guy at CVS while waiting for the pharmacy to fill my prescriptions...
clever how they make you wait...
just $9.99...
Bang for you buck!
he is so cute!
I love snowmen!
then the on the second road trip...
we took off and didn't know where we were going...
just to town...
so we came up with Rural King...
a farm supply store plus a whole lot more...

Toffee Treat candle, smells yummy...
dwarf iris bulbs at 10 cents a pack...
got 5 for 50 more bulbs of fun in the spring...
fuzzy socks..
have the blue and white pair on today...
so soft!
those were $1.99 each...
a scarf to keep my neck warm as toast on our walks...
a cute Sweater for Bebe...
tried it on him and he laid down and pouted!
he thought he was being punished...
would not even take a treat...
then he hid behind the couch...
just wait till the snow flies...
he will like it then...
a bag of mini pumpkins...
25 cents on sale...
besides getting kitten food and peanuts and candy corn for DH, that's just about it...
did get a soft off white Serta throw for the living room...
I need a bigger one for the bed this winter...
so I will have to go back...
also new this week...
fudge...
chocolate and there's peanut butter, too...
yeah, its' that time of the year...
Ok- DH and our kid are giving me such a hard time about the next two items...
online garage sale...
posted on fb...
I left a comment that I wanted these two things...
she delivered that evening, on her birthday, on her way out to her mom's for dinner...
she knocks at the door and pops in...
DH is just sitting there in his recliner and I say I need $10...
out comes the billfold, and the look on his face...
they are both having a hard time with the concept that I can still rummage, have it delivered...
spending money without leaving the house...
a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do...
now this lantern is huge, but the glass is out of it...
perfect for me... $5
this winter, it will be used to decorate for the holidays and then in the spring...
it's going to be swinging from a tree with a potted plant inside...
and this pillow...
brown ticking on the back...$5
just some new stuff to piddle fart around with...
I love my job!

hope you all are having a good weekend!
we are!
feeling good today!

I love your lantern, very similar to the smaller ones I bought recently, except mine is much smaller.
That pillow is so cute, Makes me think I might just make a few this winter.

Good Morning Tete Sweetie...
Happy Thanksgiving sweet friend. I am so thankful to have met you through our blogging network. What a blessing you have been to my life.

I love it, Rummage Sale on line, and delivery too. What fun and I can just see your DH face as you ask for 10.00 after the door knock. I am still laughing about that one. I love your lantern, how pretty it is. I would have snagged that up as well. Just perfect for so many occasions.

Love your snowman as well. I will have to check out our CVS pharmacy and see what they have gotten in. I collect snowmen, so enjoy seeing yours as well.

Have a beautiful and glorious Thanksgiving sweet friend. Thank you again for blessing me with your friendship. Many hugs and much love, Sherry
