Thanks for the compliment on the dress! I wore it to the office today and got some rave reviews. Glad it wasn’t “too simple”. <br /><br />Nancy- I’m grateful for the good deals I found this weekend. I forgot to add that the mushroom set was a mere $4.00 total.<br /><br />Marianne- The typography and wording in the Secretary art is so graphic and fun, hopefully seeing it on the wall will inspire me to be organized like it says. Thanks for the dress compliments! Also, I love when my mom grimaces at my tacky mushroom finds- it’s the garish tackiness that draws me to them like a moth to the flame. I love kitsch.Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00445764937751339633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2966296007306432724.post-41346606171957349452010-06-07T17:04:31.975-04:002010-06-07T17:04:31.975-04:00Rhonda- Glad the pictures made you smile!

Ouch, my soul!<br /><br />Sue- Thank you the kind words, I'm working hard to write and edit useful articles like you have on your blog!<br /><br />Mimi, Sue, Feelsliketime - You're all making me glad I went back for the lamp. I almost left it behind as an unnecessary purchase. And I can't believe my luck at finding the mushroom set this weekend.

The illustrations are terrific!<br /><br />I miss the low thrift store prices on clothes, too - although sometimes my favorite thrift store has $1 sales on selected racks.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17775836987596716063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2966296007306432724.post-91468209563252222842010-06-07T12:21:10.321-04:002010-06-07T12:21:10.321-04:00what fun finds! you had me smiling through every ...what fun finds! you had me smiling through every one of them.Rhondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07898829593961271218noreply@blogger.com
