hey y'all,
greetings and salutations! i'm writing this as dear hubby (and the rest of texas) watches the cowboys' playoff game. i can hear the announcers (blahblahdiddyblahblah) on TV and the crowd cheering like fools. ack!!!
i may have to finish this post later in the day when it's a little more quiet in the house. geeeez. oh gawd. something must've just happened because now the announcer is yelling.
sigh.
okay, i refuse to let this post be a play by play of the game.
my blog title is all things terry lee and i can assure you that football doesn't fall into that catagory.
anyways, yesterday i had the most marvelous opportunity to meet and spend time with my new blogging and email friend, dana of dana's chicken scoop. we met in belton for a little junkin' at nellie's and the expo's city-wide garage sale.
it was SUCH a treat to meet dana. she's an angel and we had a blast together. kindred souls for sure. we love junking and we not only have similar tastes and sensibilities, but the exact same taste in vintage lovelies.
{{ hubby yelling to the TV: "BOOM!! get up!!!" (whaa??!?!) }}
our first stop: nellies in downtown belton. our main goal was to head upstairs to visit cindy's booth. it's a good thing we didn't have any other goals because we went directly upstairs and stood at cindy's for about an hour and a half, chatting and oogling the pretties.
great booth, cindy!! if you're reading this and are in central texas, go. check. out. cindy's. booth!!! it's a must if you love all things vintage, sweet, lovely, pink. as an added incentive, she has a few things from vintagesue as well.
{{ hubby: low, sad groan to the TV. (that may not be a good sign for the 'boys) }}
after lunch at a lil bbq joint in belton (which, btw, doesn't offer an awful lot on the culinary front), we trekked over to the expo center for the city-wide garage sale. not sure how or why they call it a garage sale, because it isn't. it's a lot of vendors set up in the assembly hall, hawking their collectibles, antiques, jewelry, vintage linens, etc.
still. it was interesting and we both found some cute things:
{{ hubby is mighty quiet. crowd is screaming like maniacs. uh oh. vikings scored. }}
i had a great day of junking and am very pleased with the treasures i brought home. but most of all, i'm so pleased to have met dana and am thankful for our new friendship. thanks for a wonderful day of laughs and junkin', dana!
{{ hubby: "honey?! dallas got a field goal!"
me: "that's nice, dear." }}
hugs to all y'all,
terry lee
announcer: "vikings lead by 11."
ouch. }}

LOL! Awww Terry lee! I had so much fun with you yesterday! But, girl! I thought we talked about photoshopping (sp?)my pics-I know NOTHING about photoshopping but could you have least photoshopped my hair into sleek tresses? Haha! Love ya and can't wait to see you and the FAGS in Georgetown!!! p.s. savanna was so mad about the Cowboys game that we all sighed with relief when some guy called her and asked her out on a date and she left the house-haha!
I wish I could have gone with y'all! Next time, I'm on board! Sweeeeeet little vintage piggie...thank you for taking a picture of her for me! :-) I also love your little sweet owl...whooo knew owls could be so cute!? Haha...too bad about the Cowboys...they have always been my favorite even though I know nothing of football! And "Offsides"!? I know about my sweet potato being OFF to the SIDE of my sirloin...that's about it! Love you Mom...

go redskins!!! oh...wait....they aren't in the playoffs.

Hi! Thanks for visiting. I read your post about Roundrock. Yes, they are not the friendliest there. I asked one of the clerks to find out if one of the dealers will do any better and she will not call, she did offered 10 % but I knew I could have gotten a better discount since the dealer is a costumer and we do each other right. The pictures are not great and I tell you they were watching us like hawks, it gets very uncomfortable. I never find anything for resale since their prices are right on the money. I did buy some great keepers. I love the people and the shops in Belton. The citywide garage sale is just a name, nothing cheap there neither. Again I splurge in some keepers, gorgeous stuff. Everywhere I stopped in Sunday people were watching the game. Who won anyway? Blessings, Marta.
Hey Terry Lee Girl, WOW did you ever hit the motherlode or what! Great stuff and greater prices. Love all the pics. Vendors just have that way about them don't they? I'm gettin ready to scour some of the thrift stores here in Hot Springs today. Figure since I'll be here another 6 weeks, might as well have a little fun before work.
Now bout the Boys. Don't let Hubby hit me but I bleed black and gold. Ya know I am a die hard saints fan cause Louisiana is my home. So if he want to cheer for a winner, tell him to tune in Sunday! Nope don't do that teehee.
See ya I'm off to grab my camera. XXMollye
