I'll Tell You the Punch Line...You Tell Me the Joke!

I have really been into rhyming for the last week or so, so please forgive me...I can't help it...I seem to talk in rhymes.

I heard a funny joke today
I really laughed alot
Now I will tell you the end
And you tell me the plot!

The actual joke has been donated by Tessa Donnelly of Tennesee...she doesn't know it yet. I'll email her now!

Now here is the punch line, you tell me the joke...this should and could be fun!

Let's Vote on All Things That You Have Seen Done Two Ways...Both Seemingly Correct...At the Time!

I was busy reading all those humorous emails that people send me. I don't know why, but for some reason, today was an extremely big day for those. As I was chuckling about some of these, one of them reminded me that you can always see both sides of the coin as being correct on any particular day.

Let's take a tally of your amusing both side stories. Here's mine...it sort of has 3 sides:

Your child wakes up with a cold. He doesn't seem that bad to you. You figure that he can't afford to miss school. You know that he will drive you crazy if he stays home. He will watch too much television for your likings...or he will be on the computer chatting too long for your comfort level....or he will be playing too many computer games. SO YOU SEND HIM TO SCHOOL without ever worrying about who he will make sick.

Your student walks into your classroom sneezing his head off. He is obviously sick...perhaps not very...but ...You know that you will catch it...you know that the other kids will catch it...you know that everyone is going to end up sick and the parents of the other students will be mad at you if you don't send the sick student home. You think that his parents are awful and don't care about him. You are unmarried and cannot imagine how insensitive a parent can be to send a sick student to school.

You used to be a teacher, before you had kids, and your child wakes up with a cold. He doesn't seem that bad to you...etc, etc, etc.

My Baby is Getting Married

It's been ages since I have been on here. My baby is getting married Oct 4th. Well, she's not really a baby anymore...She's in her thirties. I will post pictures after the wedding. I have been busy worrying...something I have always, sadly, done my whole life. I know that all will turn out fine!

I do want to show you some of my current finds in my stores. Take a look at the widgets on the bottom of the page! I will be showing you "stuff" from http://AlteredArtSupplies.etsy.com ; http://Shefindsthings.etsy.com ; http://FabricSamples.etsy.com and http://stores.ebay.com/ShefindsthingsAtNostalgia?refid=store .

Fabulous Fall Fun

I have been working at getting my inventory out of my storage and into your hands. I have added a few new venues for selling my "stuff".

As you know, I currently sell on Ebay at: http://stores.ebay.com/ShefindsthingsAtNostalgia?refid=store. This store contains over 1000 items, including collectibles, vintage, designer fabric samples, estate finds, etc. I have also been selling on Etsy at: http://FabricSamples.etsy.com , where I sell Trade Only Designer Fabric Samples.

Since, I am an Antiques and Collectibles Dealer, in one of my many lives, I have opened 2 more stores on Etsy. One is at http://Shefindsthings.etsy.com which will contain Collectibles and Vintage. I have an inventory of over 10,000 items, so requests are always welcome. At the moment, this Etsy store contains a small fraction of what I have.

Then, I opened http://AlteredArtSupplies.etsy.com. This will contain all the odds and ends that I have collected from Estates over the past 13 years...that are either damaged, missing parts, weird, or simply don't know what they are. Most of these items are so interesting, that I am hoping that some of you artisans can make use of them. I think that they would be great for altered art, collages, assemblages, scrapbooking, etc. I can't wait to see what you can do with them.

AND, I do want photos....please! I will be happy to post any appropriate photos of items made with my "stuff" and links to your "stuff". Just send all info to me!

LOOK WHAT My Vintage Threads DID!!!! OMG!

Look what My Vintage Threads did with my Designer Fabric Samples!!! OMG, they are beautiful. You have a choice...you can buy some of my samples and create a one of a kind masterpiece, like Alisa. OR, you can buy some of Alisa's creations. You can get there by using her link in my list of links on the side. Please tell her I sent you!!!

Yes, Yes...I Really Do Have Hundreds of Discontinued Designer Fabric Samples!

Okay, so now everyone wants to see the discontinued, Designer Fabric Samples that are NOT on any of my Internet selling sites. Well, okay! I will add some here. I have even coordinated a group. I have also added a group of the same pattern in different colors. Any of these pieces can be bought separately. You can buy them privately through an email, or I am more than happy to put them into either of my Internet Stores...where you are under no obligation to buy anything, until you push that BUY Button! I prefer using Paypal as my payment method, so it is really EASY to purchase items from me any of the ways. But, first take a look see and see if I already have what you want in my stores:

See It Now in My eBay Store, Shefindsthings at Nostalgia!
or
See It Now in My Etsy Store, FabricSamples!
