Antiquing for the Greatest Catch!

20181024_123146

And the �Weird Thing of the Day� award during yesterday�s antique mall hop goes to ---- The huge tin catfish in the cradle found in Bedford, VA! (Thinking of rewriting the famous Harry Chapin song to be "Catfish in the Cradle...")

It even comes sporting a bit of rustic Americana with the wooden flag behind it.

When All Goes Awry, SEW!

Sometimes you just gotta say �It is what it is!� and let it be what it is. Such was the case yesterday � because things happen. When the Quilter�s Date Keepers and Quilty Pencil Sets were arriving, I took inventory of what I had in the shipping supplies department, and quickly placed a reorder for my usual Amazon Prime bubble mailers. They are usually here in two days, the shipping is free with prime, and we�d be good to go � they would arrive after our 4th of July holiday. Only problem was � ONE out of the 8 cases arrived, and following tracking numbers showed that the other 7 got waylaid along their route somehow, and did not arrive yesterday.

After I went as far as I could on yesterday�s orders and getting things out the door and made my chiropractor appointment at 11:30 � my overly full van Moby and I continued west to Wilkesboro, North Carolina, and up highway 16 toward Jefferson and the Virginia state line. (Heads up folks! For those waiting for the Triangle Booty Rulers to arrive, I finally got the tracking number yesterday and they should be on my door step TODAY! There were a flurry of things that delayed this shipment longer than expected. So sorry!) And because I wasn�t in a hurry � and because I wasn�t meeting up with anyone at any particular time, I did something I�ve wanted to do since we bought our Virginia place more than a year ago.
