JUST A FEW THINGS

Well now that I have no swaps to do….not sure what I will be posting….Here is what I replaced my Hot Chocolate Bar (that I set up at Christmas) with. Some of the vintage that I have been collecting. An old fashion nut grinder, my mom had one just like this but some other family member has it. This is one that I got from a friends yard sale. 50 cents! The receipt card is the very first thing I painted back in the early 80’s very primitive. My sister and I spent a day together painting these. A vintage shredded wheat tin, along with a vintage shredded wheat tin receipt card box. and the Better Homes cook book from the 60’s. Love all this red vintage.
And here is an updated pic of Norma E. My vintage mannequin named in memory of my mother Norma Elizabeth. She is sporting lot of new stick pins and charms. Some received in swaps and some I made. The gold name NORMA was my mom’s I still have to find an E for her. Some how I have to fit this into my RV.
Here are a few Valentine altered art that I packaged up…not sure what I will do with it…maybe a give away. I need to find a new swap blog…I miss doing the swaps.
Thought I would thro in a pic of my RV at our shake down camp this past weekend. We went to Wickham Park here in Melbourne and had a blast….and learned much. If you want to check it out go to my other blog and see the posts there. http://grammyandthepapillonprinces.blogspot.com/

GRAMMY-N-MAGGIE RV'ING

Maggie playing RV'ing lol DD and SIL camper.

Well Grammy “n” Maggie spent 12 days practicing RV’ing. It was fun and I think we could live that way. I have decided to make some major life changes at this time of my life. I will be 64 next month and figured better do it now lol. I have always loved camping and dreamed often of being on the road traveling around this great country that we live in. I also have been wanting to down size for several yrs now. I am a pack rat so this is a major undertaking and I am a one woman show! I started last yr doing some yard sales, this yr I have added doing the flea market thing, so back to the practicing full time RV’ing we went to visit my dd and sil and gs and cats and dogs lol. GS was home from college and his gf came for a visit so me N maggie staid in their camper. It worked out great and we loved it. So now I am wanting this to happen fast but will have to take it one thing at a time. I have been following blogs of RV fulltimer’s there is a lot to learn and this is a good head start. I want a class C RV. I think I will start another blog about RV’ing from the start to finally getting on down the road. Any way here are a few pic’s. And I am having a down sizing yrd sale this weekend.
Have a great weekend
Blessings to all donna
