 JUST GOTTA SHARE...

NOTHING LIKE 
GOOD SOUTHERN 
CHURCH CHOIR MUSIC!

My 49 year old baby brother is on the back row!


ENJOY!!!

I can see your feet tapping:-)
 
  
 Never a dull moment in my corner of the world.  
Weekend before last, just after I left the Antique Mall
after moving into my new booth, 
high winds and terrible weather struck very close to the mall.
It damaged many businesses around the mall and even blew the roof off of a nearby hotel. 
Thankfully, no one was hurt and the mall was spared...that time.

 Last night, GA rocked and roll with tornadoes, 
high winds and thunder storms. 
Along with some of the sharpest lightening most had ever seen. 
The Antique Mall was not as fortunate this time.
The mall sits beside I-75 and for over 20 years had
a huge peach tower as a landmark.  
That peach tower came tumbling down 
last night and damaged it's namesake. 
Fortunately again no one was injured there, 
though 5 people died in our area from the storms.

Bill called me on his way to work after seeing the big peach tower against the mall building this morning. I was concerned all day about the people there, the damage, and of course my booth. 
Praise the Lord, all is well!
There's a huge hole in the ceiling, and I am sure some people had damage to their booth, but thankfully no one was injured.
I sure hope this is the last of the excitement there!
Well, at least the scary excitement...
there was a special visitor there last week! 
Here's Carson Kressley and sweet Heather...she works at the Peach.
Of course, he showed up on a day I wasn't working my booth. 

 So there you have it...life in the booth fast lane. 
Hope the sun shines for a while!


The video is news coverage about today's storm damage at 
The Big Peach Antique Mall.

Listen to the sweet southern accents:-)

SHE'S BAAAAACK!!!

I can't believe I didn't post this earlier!! 
Especially when you have all been so kind to ask about Gypsy today,
and so many showed concern for her yesterday.

She came home! 

She was gone for close to 15 hours, 

but she came home!

She scratched at the backdoor 
last night around 10pm...
wet, dirty, 
cold and hungry. 
She was also covered in snails. 
So wherever she ran off to and hid out 
was swampy.
Wish she could tell us all about her adventure!

She was glad to be home, but acted like it was really no big deal that she was gone all day.

My facebook page has been so full of comments and well wishes, and I have answered so many questions about her that I just forgot to make a post on the good news here.

Thank you all for your sweet concern and emails!
All the worry seems silly with all the tragedy going on in our world, but we love that little dog!
Even Violet the cat loves her...
Not the best photo, but you can feel the love.



A heart is not judged by how much you love, but how much you are loved by others...The Wizard
From Gypsy and from me...
Thank You for your prayers and interest in our little spot of the world.
