12 days of Christmas

Photobucket

Lots of fun stuff being given away over at the Where Women Create blog...kinda like Santa without the silly red suit!!! And you don't have to leave milk and cookies for them! And they dont come down the chimney or drive a sleigh pulled by eight tiny reindeer, but, you get my point...

A GINORMOUS rock (and, no, I don't mean a diamond...)

Weel, I know it's been a while since we've spoken, and I have a good excuse, really! No, I really do...
I had some kidney stones.
Yeah, you read right.
SOME.
As in two.
TWO!!!
Two that passed (which, in and of itself is a huge deal, if you've ever had them...can you say hello to my new friend dilaudid??? I wouldn't have made it through without it...
Oh, and I don't have insurance.
I also got a kidney infection.
Plus, there are others lurking around in there. One that's 6 mm and too big to pass. I'm gonna have to have some sort of a procedure to get that bad boy out.
BUT, no insurance, remember?
Sigh...
I'm definitely feeling better. Thanks for listening...
I made myself feel better today by going to an Estate sale. I got some LOOT!!! Check it out...



Amazing wedding photos

Vintage beads and bathtub chain

Cool pen nibs in a vintage dennison label box. I love the box, but DAMN I wish there were labels in there! You KNOW how I love me some vintage Dennison

Ok, this one's gotta be in all caps so you know just how excited I am about it: A VINTAGE BOTTLE BRUSH TREE!!! BUT THE FUN DOESN'T STOP THERE, KIDS...A PERFECT STRAND OF MULTI-COLORED MERCURY GLASS BEADS!!! AND, EVEN THOUGH YOU CAN'T SEE IT IN THE PICTURE, THERE IS A STRAND OF TARNISHED SILVER TINSEL!!! I COULD JUST PEE, I'M SO EXCITED....

Pretty little chenille stem/porcelain angel

Four little tarnished silver glitter birds

miscellaneous christmas fun stuff: check out the mercury glass star in the back on the right...I KNOW...**gasp***!!!! LOVE IT!!!! And the litttle whiteish-silver peices are a star that fell apart. I still love the peices.

sweet little velvet drum ornaments

And, finally, a herd of cute velveteen reindeer, with sliver glittered antlers and tails.
