Shopping shopping and more

I do like to shop.

I like the hunting part of thrift store shopping and over the years I have bought my fair share of stuff.

It was close to 20 years ago that I learned that I could actually part with some stuff and make money!

A little antique store in our town was turning into a “mall” – a new idea at the time, and  friend and I decided to share a space for about $35 each(that was a big scary investment) and we had a place to sell things.

Oh, and sell we did.  It was great.

Selling has been my hobby for years.

Now that the economy has my travel agency biz circling the drain- selling has now become a priority.

I did not know if I would like selling more full time –  I thought it might take the fun out of it  – but it has not.

To top it off – an antique pal and I are are going to have a big BIG sale in my building in October.

Check it out:  www.goodsalegirls.com  – we have been busy amassing our stuff and pricing it and soon getting it set out for sale.

Piles and piles of stuff.  Good stuff, mind you….

It will be great fun to decorate the place with all the gathered items!

I always wanted to build a website and it was pretty easy on my new(ish) mac computer.   I have an idea or two or three for more websites.

I want to learn how to host my own blog.

That can’t be too difficult.

I just got Photoshop Elements and it has sucked away some of my evening hours.

This is a whirly-gig made from tin cans.
