Target has taken a back seat.......

Target has taken a back seat....... I can hardly believe I typed that as a Title. The hard cold truth is that I look forward to going to Goodwill and Salvation Army thrift stores more than Target,,,,,,,,these days. One thing that our Goodwill does is buy what Target wants to get rid of ASAP. Right after Christmas GW had tons of Christmas cards from Target and lots of one of a kind curtains. and sheets. Really items from clothes, shoes all the way to the dollar stuff they have at the front of the store. I think once Target got their really old flip flops to 75 percent off they hauled them to GW. Yesterday I bought these blue gooodies for 1.00. I got this wall paper border with neat maps for 1.00.

Day after turning 45.

Well my birthday has come and gone. It was a good day. We went to my parent's house and they cooked ribs and pork tenderloin and lots of other good food. My mom made a Carmel cake and a chocolate pie that had frangelica in it.....Yummy.

Cold Sunday in South Georgia

I woke up and was full of energy and finished some cards for Etsy. You can see my work on Etsy at www.stephy4030.etsy.com. It is a dreay day and very windy and cold.

First Day for this Blog

I am trying my hand at blogging. I have so much enjoyed reading others. I like this form of communication. I have learned so much about that other stream of consciousness when one is "Crafting" ! LOL............I get in that zone and time flies by. I have to admit that it is disappointing when I can't get a card or layout just right. In that case I set it a side and tackle it later. I wonder how many people do that or If I am in the minority? The above picture is one of my thrift purchases yesterday. I got the vase for one dollar . . the decor in the background is from Target several years ago.
