Farmhouse Friday 2022 - Week 3 - Having Fun

 Good Morning!  Its a chilly....

.... -24 here in Ringle, Wisconsin.  We are always so much colder than even our neighbors.  Our farm sits low down by a little creek.  So, there's that today.

This week flew by for me, how about you?  

I did pretty much finish posting the lots for the "storage unit" estate sale.  Between selling pieces from the unit and the 3 "lot drops" I hope to have the unit empty by next week.  If a few things don't sell, they can come back to my farm so that the family doesn't have to pay another month's rent.  

Some of the items I posted last Saturday.   I do ship, it takes me longer to get it to you, but I do.  Here is the link the the group should you ever want to see what I have available:  Town Hall Trinkets Online Estate Sales

I had fun on my "Lauren Day" my daughter had a conference she was attending, so I was over there longer.  We played "vet" pretty much all morning.  I came up with some pretty interesting ailments for her horses and other toys to have.....ahahaha.  After all that....we both needed a nap.   I know these days are numbered, as she will be going to school in the fall.  I am going to enjoy them all the more!

On the Thursdays that I can, I want to spend it "thirfting."  The picture above shows a few things I picked up yesterday.  My calendar quickly gets filled with things I "have to" do; I want to mark certain days for things I "want to" do.  Now, some of these #thriftscorethursdays, might be in my own "thrift store/pole building/shop/studio/trailer"  I bought out 2 small estates in 2020 during Covid quarantine that I have barely sorted through.

Every time I see these little chenille chicks, if they are reasonably priced, I buy them.  I remember having similar in my Easter basket as a child.  

My friend, Renee and I also went to a very cool quilt shop we go to a few times a year.  They recently built a new facility and retreat center and it was our first time going to that location Primitive Gatherings  Renee, is a quilter and her finished pieces are amazing.  She relies on my "artsy eye" to help pick out fabrics...teehee.  I love going because of the wool!  Also, the clearance and mark down area!  Good deals!   I found a stash of felting needles, on clearance, cheaper than I could have ordered them.  I have 2 classes coming up and I will need them.  

This morning I'm off to visit Anna.  We are taking a soap making class at a the Ledge View Nature Center in Chilton, Wisconsin tomorrow.  Today, I'm sure we will have fun eating and thrifting.  Funny how I said eating first....ahahah

What fun things have you been doing this week?
