Rooster Collection

Found a yard sale on the way to work. The poor man was selling off his Rooster collection. The wife apparently put her foot down allowing him to keep only 12 roosters . Needless to say he was not happy. I managed to take a few pictures before they found a new home.

Fresh Tortilla Chips and Salsa

Went to Harvest Ranch this morning and purchased two staple items . Chips and salsa. I seriously could eat chips and salsa all day every day. What is your must have? Look at my photo. I'm ashamed -it never made the trip home. The 16 oz. container never stood a chance.

Sport Armband

Ok so I'm in a bit of a fitness craze . I started running again. Back in the olden days there were fanny backs to carry my battery operated CD player . Remember those? Well now that I turned in my flip phone and opted for an iPhone -I found as I run I was turning my music into shuffle mode???Holding a phone while running was not my cup of tea or joe which ever you prefer. Well,my in the know,14 year old Julia suggested a sports armband. It's a painful $20 at Target I figure its another expense I could classify as a need not a want .
Anyone out there try one of these?

Daylight Savings March 10th

Michael's Craft Inspiration

What inspires you to craft?

Do you listen to music while crafting?
Many a times I hear how therapeutic crafting can be-it doesn't soothe me in any way. I love to tinker and put things together yet I tend to spend way too long perfecting my craft project. Do I seek perfection in myself, in others? Ok way too deep . Where's my glue gun?

Estate Sale on my day off

 
 
Love Estate sales however I find they are really "pricey" when the Estate team has more than 2 people working. Just remember this means all of those "workers" take a cut from the price. I am all about free enterprise however buyer beware when you walk up to an Estate sale and they have 10 people hanging out.
 
This estate sale was in Jamul,CA with only 2 people.Yeah!
 
I scored a box of miscellaneous buttons: $2.00,
a "Heidi" DVD- This is a feel good family oriented movie: $2.00
& a 1979 Church recipe book $1.00
 
My $5.00 score! Yeah me!
