Well – Well – Wettina- tonight at Goodwill

I just had a feeling that I would find something “good” tonight on my regular once-a-day-need-it-or-not trip through my local Goodwill store.

At first I thought that it was my lucky day as I found just the right sized cooler for a little trip up to Seattle for a few days.  I want to pack some low-carb snacks and have them handy, if needed.

Not bad for $2.99

Then, I turned the corner and saw this:

” Hello!”

I could not read the mark on the bottom but it felt so good that it did not matter that I could not read the mark.

It did not matter that the bottom was a wee bit cracked.

The cracks were smooth to the touch and not a problem to me.

It just felt so fabulous to place that gently in my shopping cart.

ha ha

So I will try to list it on ebay tomorrow and then on Saturday morning , head for Seattle.

My kid wants to go to the Space Needle.  A friend of his says that her Dad put a post-it note on the wall and in an hour, the rotation brought it right back.   I don’t like heights and I will do the Space Needle thing – but I ain’t stayin’ up there an hour.

The last time I went up in the Space Needle was at the World’s Fair.

Here is a picture of me from that day.

This is how I felt inside when I saw that fabulous piece of art pottery on the shelf tonight.

However, being an adult now, this is probably similar to the look I  had on my face…dscn2305Well… minus the big booger
