Around 11:00 A.M. that 60% was 100% !
The gray skies open and rained down buckets!
Buckets of REAL treasure!
What a beautiful site!
Rain water pours off the roof into the Elephant Ear tub! They love water!!
Two of the Mallards went cruising in the rainy pond!
Before the treasured rain came, we went to a moving/yard sale. I stole, not literally but it felt like I did, a couple of treasures. The first being this antique dressing stool. It had a new fake suede leopard print cover on it but needed some TLC.
I removed the seat and refinished it with a dark walnut stain to match the dresser in the guest room...
And now....it sits in it's new place! I paid: $ 5 bucks for it!
This is the foot board of the bed with the round spindle like the stool legs
This is the inside of my next treasure.........
A Camel Back Treasure Chest! It has real leather and tweed on top. I'm trying to decide what color to paint over the black paint on it. It will sit at the foot of the bed in the guest room and hold quilts in it. I paid: $ 15 bucks for it!
A brand new Magnavox Clock Radio with 3 alarms.... $ 2 bucks
OH YES, books! The trunk was full of them and I only bought 4 for $ 3 bucks!The one on top is supposed to be a sequel of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice! I know but " I can't help myself" !
If there is such a thing as a book HO, I'm the house Madame! :)
Two grill tools for $ 1 buck!
A Queen dust ruffle, brand new for $ 2 bucks. I have been looking for this color since I redid my bed awhile back!
I had actually ordered a new bed lamp a few days ago but this one was $ 1 buck so I got it and cleaned it and painted it and enjoyed reading by it last night.
So that was my Friday except that during the rain the power kept going off and on and finally stayed off for awhile and you know, I'm just lost without power! I was on Facebook trying to write on Renie's wall and I would get 2 or 3 words then boom! Gone! I know, it's nothing to complain about but it was kind of annoying but for 1 & 1/2 inches of rain, ANNOY ME!
