Signs of Angels in My Life...

Lurch and I just returned
from the Zapp Hall Antique Show
in Warrenton.

While there, I had the distinct feeling
that there are angels in my life.


There were signs...


Helping hands extended
from unexpected places...


hugs and warm embraces
from old friends and
new "family" members...


tears of joy...


jubilation, joy,
success and celebration...


smiles and laughter...


support and love...


and beautiful opportunities.


Yes, there are signs that
angels are in my life.

I am so very grateful.

Thank you, my dear angels.

Who You Gonna Believe... Me Or Your Lying Eyes?

Have I ever lied to you before?
Yes, I am positive...
I saw it with my own eyes!

I know that Tristan has only been
blogging for three months...
but he already has 100 posts!
I am not kidding you...
you know that boy likes to show pictures!
Well, you know what he has done now?
You better sit down!
He is having a Give Away!
Yes, he is!
Girl, all you gotta do is leave a comment...
And your name is entered!
That is easy enough to do, isn't it?
I mean, I visit his blog every day anyway!
Yes, he is a good boy!
You want to hear my
other tidbit of gossip?
It's about the girls at Warrenton.
I thought you might want to hear this!
You know Mindy of Primitiques N Poetry, right?
And, if I remember correctly,
you and Cher, The Texas Woman
went to school together, didn't you?
She didn't????
She stole your boyfriend??!!
Well, you are gonna love
what I have to tell you..
And I even took pictures
to prove it!

Don't you love this picture? Mindy is on the far left and she is all hugging up with Cher and Cher is all hugging up with Karen, the silent partner of Moonlight Hollow!

What? Yes, you are right. It is just like Cher to be in the middle of a group hug! No, that is not what it is, girl...I just like to call her outgoing!

And this is all I have to say about Karen...you see that necklace she has on? Uh huh, that one! You know who made that? The Junkin' YaYa made it, that's who. But do you think Karen thought about buying her wonderful partner, Malisa, a necklace like that? Oh, nooooooooo! But enough about Karen.

Well, I gotta tell you, girl, I was so surprised when I met Mindy. Yes, that's what I said...surprised. Why? Oh, I knew she was nice because I had been reading her blog, but I thought maybe she was too nice. Do you know what I mean, girl? I thought you would! Believe this or not, some people think I am a little "over the top" if you know what I mean, and, well, I thought I might just be a little too rowdy for such a nice girl. What do you mean, "you understand'? Just what the hell do you think you understand? Oh, well, thank you for straightening that out! But, girl, I gotta tell you that Mindy is NICE, but that girl is funnier than a turd in a punchbowl! Oh my gosh, she had me laughing all the time! And friendly...I gotta tell you that Mindy is a friendly as a speckled pup! She made everybody feel so welcome. I was afraid with her being from Poetry and all....What? No, I don't exactly know where Poetry is, but it must be kind of boring because Mindy has a liking for the same kind of Coca-Cola concoction that I like. No, girl, it is NOT a Coke float! Anyway, my point is that Mindy is fun, fun, fun and I am so glad I met her!

I hate to tell you this, but I can't help it if Cher stole your high school boyfriend! All I can tell you is that I really like her! Yes, you did hear me right! Well, I am sorry if that offends you, but she is my kind of woman! I'm telling you, that Texas Woman is kinda wild, rowdy and, well, Texan! No, she didn't have your boyfriend with her! Look at that smile on her face in this picture. That's what Texas Woman is all about...laughter and friendship. And did you know that she has some outstanding talents? No, girl, not those! She can paint! I am serious. She can paint up a storm! You know what else? She has this great sense of humor and she is sarcastic and she might even gossip a little bit. No, we did not talk about you...much. In fact, Cher said she didn't even remember you! Girl, you need to settle down...I am sure she was just being funny! Anyway, she had her grown up son with her and he was a cutie! No, he was not her designated driver! He was just spending time with his wonderful mom...and that should tell you something about how great she is! What? Well, actually, he did look a bit like your ex-boyfriend!

I think I hear Lurch calling me. I need to hang up now! No, I am not trying to avoid you. Listen, I just called to tell you about Tristan's give away and tell you about my two new, beautiful friends. Yes, I will call you back. I just heard that Debbie from Talking Trash is back from Warrenton! I have lots to tell you!

I always show all of mine at once...
photos, that is!
What did you think I was talking about?
So, today I am only giving you a sneak peek...

Guess which one is Texas Woman?
How did you guess?
Cher of The Texas Woman, far left...
Debbie of The Junkin YaYa, far right...
Karen of Moonlight Hollow, center.
I don't know what these gals are laughing about...
but it probably had something to do with...me...again!

Here we see The Texas Woman challenging
these two red carpet beauties to
a wet tshirt contest!
The rowdy girls are:
Cher of The Texas Woman, far left...
Debbie of Talking Trash, far right...
and Mindy of Primitiques 'n Poetry, center.
Why you pointing at me, Deb?
Did I do something...again?
Check out the cool necklaces Mindy is wearing.
She made them from old window shade pulls!
