Thrift Store Find

After having spent two hours on this guy's website last night, I got inspired to do a little thrifting of my own.

I now have my own Betty Draper.



She's a 1950s Napco Head Vase and she's not perfect (one earring is missing and part of her bow is broken off), but neither is Betty.

I got also found a six-piece bar set for $1 that includes stainless swizzle sticks and a spear for digging up that last olive out of the jar. They are very plain in design, but exactly what I've been looking for to stir my Sunday morning Bloody Mary.

Thank You

Big thanks to everyone who donated to the Montgomery Humane Society Walk-n-Wag! You helped me raise $160 online and in these tough economic times that really means a lot. My co-workers were also generous as well as some friends and neighbors, and I raised a grand total of $280!

There were booths filled with pet products and there were some large dogs.



There were also some small dogs.


Some dogs wore costumes.




Dean made a new friend.


Max made a new friend, too.


We had a great time and all of the excitement wore us out.
