Hehehe, I'm in so much trouble!

Two quick things!


One - I love my van because it can haul big things so easily!


Two - Big things take up a lot of space in the house.

Do yo think Hubby will notice his recliner missing?

I spotted this lovely love seat two blocks from home this morning for $50! Right color, right style right wood, hardly used. I couldn't just leave it there! I've got to get moving and start rearranging furniture so I can get it in the house before Hubby comes home! It's so much easier for him to deal with my furniture addiction when he can see where the heck it's going to fit! Wish me luck getting it up stairs and in through the door! (Oh, sorry Berries and Alaina...it's YELLOW! LOL!)

One Man's Junk...

is a great addition to another man's collection



and makes him grin ear to ear.


I didn't know about Hubby's sink collection




so he hauled me out to the old chicken coop




to share his fixtures.

He says he's going to use them for planters around the yard.

This is not where this post was headed when I started it. I just wanted one photo of the upside-down sink I noticed in his truck the other day...

Hubby was getting ready for work and asked if I had any change. I told him I didn't think so but when I picked up my purse it weighed about 20lbs. Oh yeah, I remembered I had hit a few thrift stores Friday. My daughter had been home sick for almost a week and I needed to get out.

Yes, I know, I hear the tsk, tsk, tsk coming from all sides.

So before he could give me a bad time I volunteered, "You know I have to shop just so I can get change for you." He shook his head and took the coins I offered up for his Pepsi fix.

A few minutes later I walked out with him as he left for work. That's when I spied it. I just shook my head. As he pulled out of the driveway he hollered, "My sink was free!" I hollered back, " I got your change right here buddy!"

We're hopeless. Just promise you won't call any TV shows on us before we get the stuff we're really attached to hidden so they can't find it...
