Workin' Away....

Spent yesterday morning... 'til mid afternoon Down The Rabbit Hole.

; )

{Started this post yesterday... but, it was such a crazy day, didn't finish it until the 7th.}

It's kinda Chilly... down there, without the furnace workin'.

: )

{Hopefully... will have it Fixed, yet... this week.}

Me and The Boys... got the Sweet little Electric Fireplace Heater... in place.

It helps... but, the Furnace Needs to get Goin'!!

; )

Had a Dear... Long Time Friend.... Brave The Cold, and Visit... yesterday.

<3

Sold her one of The Best... and, Earliest.. 'Hanging Pie Safe's '...  I've ever seen.

It's been a Fixture... at The Rabbit Hole, since... nearly, Day One.

<3

Could've sold It a Thousand Times... over the years, but...

No.

<3

It's Always been marked...

'Not For Sale'.

With 'Everything'... so Crazy, around Home...

so Much uncertainty...

Flooding issues.

Worries... Worries.

 'Death... by a Thousand Cuts'...

{Fairfax, and IDOT}

well...

maybe... 

it's time, to start putting my 'Favorites' into the Caring Hands...

of 

Others.

With my Friend's purchases today, there will be room... to bring in more, Soulfulness...

that's been waiting on board.

: )

Gonna be Flippin' The Rabbit Hole, Upside Down.

oh... my.

Furnace workin'... or not.

; )

As I cleaned off the Amazing... Old, Hanging Pie Safe, took down one of Peg's Incredible Gourds, from The Old... Pie Safe's Crown.

<3

Carried it to the House, when I'd had enough 'cold'.

; )

{Asked Peg... to Please, put a 'Not for Sale'... tag, on it, when she gave it to me.

: )

Could've Sold IT... a Thousand Times, too.}

<3

Peg was an Amazing Artist.

<3

Peg hand burned her designs, into these gourds, then... hand dyed every color.

To describe them as 'Amazing'... would be a Huge Understatement.

Peg signed all of her Gourds... with an Ant, and her initials.

PJS

<3

<3

Priceless.

Peg...was a 'People Watcher'... during Events.

; )

She'd get the Biggest Kick... out of People, when they'd try and pick things apart, to get a better price.

: )

that... just doesn't work, with me.

: )

I price things knowing full well.... what their 'condition' is.

: )

Instead of a Perfect Ironstone Platter, being priced at 65,

one... Old Soul, 'Survivor'... Ironstone Platter, with a chip... might be 18. to 24.

: )

I, always smile... and tell Folks if they're seeking 'Perfection'...

where they can go to shop... and find it.

: )

and...

if they are seeking perfection...

probably won't find much of that here.

; )

I prefer things that have been Used, Loved On...

'Soulful'... things, that are still so Incredibly Beautiful...

'Battle Scars'... 

give them Character... in my eyes.

<3

Feel the same way about 'People'.

<3

People will get a MUCH better price, if... I can do it, when I see them Light Up...

while holding a piece.

<3

LOVE IT!!

<3 <3 <3 

Pickin' something apart... that I hold dear, well...

uh...

oh.

; ) : ) : )

Making deliveries this afternoon.

then...

Back, Down The Rabbit Hole.

Much...

Much...

to get 

Done.

'Christmas'... may not get much of my 'attention' this year, at the house.

It is... what it is.

The Rabbit Hole's gonna be Quite a Disaster.... after pulling Cupboards out, and bringing More...In.

oh...

dear.

Love to Ya...

Prayers for All.
