A Phone Call ...

yesterday as i was playing barbies

 on the front porch with my 3 year old...

just after i had dropped my new kindergartner off at school

 i got a phone call from my bff
Amy

she is ...

a fellow junker,

a lover of all things shabby,

a mama of two,

the one who would bravely go to the thrift stores with me

when shopping at thrift stores wasn't so cool to do ...

mind you we were 18

and working at a major retail store

a store where during the day we tried to convince people

that yes ... spending 115 bucks on a pair of jeans

was worth it ...

while meanwhile after we got off our shift

we would go find them for 4 bucks at the thrift store

yep ...

she in so many words 'just gets it'

and

i found out yesterday she is coming to visit !!!

i am beyond excited!
xo

p.s  ... i promised a give away this week
tune in tomorrow to see what the prize is ...

p.s.s  ... i have been thinking of having a small fall show late September
still pinning down a date ... details coming soon!
