Can Not...

'express'.

It seemed like, it was one... catastrophe... after another.

: ) : ) : ) 

{I have Lot's of Material...for 'The Book'. : ) }

Everything... from a Crazy...Election...that had me guessing...

and...

Twisted...

to...

Theft...

and a Biker's Bar... 

Confrontation.

{I walked in...alone.

The 'Sea Parted'.

Spoke my Piece...

Pounded...It...In.

then

walked out...alone. 

 The Mad Hatter...

was in 

Rare Form... under The Super Moon. }

All I can say...
When our Beloved...'Work Horses'...finally....say, 'No More'.
They say it...at our destination...or at Home.

May God...Bless Them, and Those....who 'Tend'...them. : ) <3

All of Liz's Hats... found Homes.

and...
The Buffet.

Most, everything....you see, in this image... was purchased...as JJJ.
I bought it...during The Event.
Most...all of it...
Sold.
Hated to see The French...Chest....go.

Early...
Ironstone....
I've ever been Blessed, to have. 

The Old Spools.....

Little Pig, I'd rescued...from The Victorian House....sold.
I Loved...that little Pig...bank.

He was Wonderful. : )
He found...a Good,  Home.

The Crowds....were Amazing!!!

Our, Dear Friend, Mary.
{Dark Horse Antiques, Janesville, Iowa. }
{also...our Neighbor, at JJJ : ) }
Bought this...'Favorite'... Hat, Liz had Created.
It was Perfect...on Her!!! <3 

This little Gal was soooo Sweet!

waited too long, to purchase one of Liz's Hatter Hats.
: (
They Sold Out...in no time.

The Gal...on the right...

Iowa City.
She was Thrilled...to find this...
old...
Feed Sack...

The Important Thing...

that was stolen....

was returned.

{It meant life, or death...to me. 

Thankfully I had a 'back up'. }

{Like I told the 'Authority'...

I'd spoken to, when the Theft...occurred...

Thursday.

I don't want anyone...to lose their job.

 so....

I...wouldn't file a report....with the Police.

I believe... 'Karma'...will, eventually...take care, of everything. : )

but...

I wanted this 'noted'.

She, agreed...

then...

She Laughed. : ) : ) : ) 

 {Nervously}

{She, didn't like this... either. and... in my heart...of hearts... believe...

she, didn't want to see....'anyone'....lose 'their' job...either. }

 she said... she 'Believed'...the same way. I do. : ) 

The 'piece'.... was returned.

dropped...

inside

 The Ford.

Sunday, Morn. 

: )

Love, to ya...
