“They also have a really nice antique and vintage section.”
That would lure me right in - and take all the money from my purse, LOL!
I love de-cluttering. I need to do much more of it. I also need to re-double my efforts to convince Beau that we need to clean out the garage. He can have the entire BARN and his portion of the basement for all of his many ‘treasures.’
Just a reminder: No one in our immediate families wants our stuff. Sell it or donate it. I’m keeping my Grandma’s China dishes and silverware set, though. For now. ;)
Our new shingles & other materials have been delivered this morning & roofer notified .... he says he’s “ready” for tomorrow! Hopefully, the stomach ache I got watching the VERY large delivery truck trying to get into our driveway, will be gone by dinner time. I’m sure I’ll have at least one case of hives from nerves over the next 3 days.
The slate shingles on the roof won’t be salvaged; however, I have several piles of spare shingles stacked by the pole shed. I don’t think they are appropriate for roofing, but one of the ladies at church mentioned that artists like to use them ... painting, coasters, etc. I did a little snooping around online ... looks like $1.00 to maybe $6.00 per shingle. There is an artist who has a shop 5 minutes down the road & next time he’s open when I go by, I’ll stop in & see if he’s interested or knows other artists who might be.
Fall is coming ... our grass is definitely starting to turn. It looks like I won’t be mowing as late as I did at the old place, other than to chop up leaves to avoid raking. With people wanting to see the beautiful fall leaf color in the mountains, it looks like we are going to be having quite a few visitors - first ones 9th or 10th of next month.
Great day - 70’s, partly sunny, light breeze, borderline ‘crisp’ feel to the air. By this evening, I’ll probably need something warmer to wear than a T-shirt & shorts.
