Little Things

55°f at 7am, such a difference from yesterday morning. More humid than it has been in a while. Warmed up to 75.

One of our mulberry trees is just a golden delight right now. They are usually the last trees to turn color, and often drop all their leaves in an hour if we have a hard frost.


Therapy was a 9am this morning, so afterward we treated ourselves to breakfast at Tudor's Biscuit World, a West Virginia owned chain of small restaurants that specialize in breakfasts, but also serve good lunches too. I splurged! Eggs, bacon, and one biscuit covered in sausage gravy. I am ashamed to say I ate every bite-- but in my defense, I did not eat dinner last night. So I was pretty hungry by the time we got to Tudor's.


Next stop was another treat, a browse through a thrift store, where I found some nice things for our booths. 





Best find, not pictured, was an old oak kitchen chair for $1.49. I will clean it up, add a Christmas wreath, and take it to one of our booths as a "porch decor chair". 

I was tuckered out by the time we got home, but went ahead and priced and packed our finds for the booths and then got out the first of the Christmas totes. Because it's time to get that show on the road. I dread it, honestly,  but it must be done as one mall has an open house scheduled for next week. Too early for me, but apparently not for the rest of the world.

I sat down to start a new book this evening,  and all of these fell out.


The book was from a thrift store, and I had no idea these leaves were in there. What a sweet find.  I think I may frame them.

The well guys arrived around 5 this evening, just before dark, and are still working on putting in the new pressure tank. I hate to see the bill, but it had to be done.

All the news for today. Now to wait with baited breath for tomorrow. I am very afraid of what the results may be. (And just heard: $574.00. About what I expected.)
