I will not falter!

Three weeks. Three weekends I've not been able to go to the sales. Well, a couple here and there, but nothing to speak of. I couldn't wait for today. Started on Wednesday looking in the classifieds for estate sales. By this morning, there were three. One 20 miles north of here, the other two 45 miles north west. Totally different directions, but Lena and I did not let that deter us. We hit all three. This is what I got.



That's right. Four things. Pretty cool things, but I'd have like for there to have been forty things! However, I did get a nice step stool for $5 and some printer labels and printer magnet... strips...things....whatever you call them. I'm happy to have all that, but still.

The auction is tomorrow. They have an auction the first and third weekends of every month and this weekend is not typically a good weekend, but I have to go pick up the sewing desk. The pictures on the auction site do not look promising, but who knows? Erin is going with me so we can stay late for the furniture if need be. The auction is an hour and a half from here, begins at 9:00 a.m. and ends at late thirty. It's been known to go past midnight. They do smalls first and don't get to the furniture until 7 p.m. Now, if it was more local, I'd absolutely love it, but it's not. Anyway, we'll see what happens tomorrow. I'll let y'all know.
