Wednesday Shopping

So, finally made it to the thrift at 1.

Searched up & down but couldn't find the QF pink flamingo top :((

Did manage to find a few other snazzy pieces including 3 more fab neckties.

Look for new listings soon!

Good night,

Hump Day or Dump Day

Sure is cold outside today, esp considering it was 62° just yesterday! :((

Must push self out of chair, get packages ready, labels printed, hit PO on way to fave thrift.

Why does thrift hafta be 23 miles away?? wahhhh, wahhhh, boohoohoo

It'll be worth it, I'm sure :o) Can't stop thinking of the QF pink flamingo sweater, the Gene Ewing top that'll go with my skirt, and a blur of other clothing now on sale. It's Red Tag day, woohoo!!

Today's Road Trip

Awoke to cloudy, drizzzly weather, so took forever to get myself motivated :-(
Well, that, and the ebay fees announcement this morning did not help- argh!!

We'll save the ebay dissing for another time, too tired right now ;-)

So, today wasn't too awfully 'hard', but it was long. A few idiot drivers and screaming kids in stores did not help.

Oh yeah--- a shout out to the fool driving the white Dodge dualie with Kansas plates on I565 in Madison around 10:15 this morning... yeah, YOU, the one who can't drive. I'm in the right lane, couple car lengths ahead of big rig in center lane & your arse in left. You speed up a hair, get in front of rig, and then just poke along like he's nowhere around! So, he slows down to keep from killing you, I'm 3 or 4 car lengths ahead now, wondering 'does the fool want over here for next exit in a mile? plenty of room behind me for him to get over.'

Silly me, why ever would you slide in BEHIND me? Oh no. Same foolishness. Speed up a tick, get in FRONT of me (I was doing legal 70) so you can just pokey poke along. Then get off exit & STOP!! Helllooooo!! Dunno how it is in KS, but Y-I-E-L-D does not spell S-T-O-P, ya jerk!

You're lucky your pic isn't here today. Yep. Soon as I transfer all my phone pics, I'm using it to grab a snapshot of each fool/bully/idiot I encounter & I'm-a posting here for all the world to see, hee hee hee!

Parents with little kids - ok, not ALL of you, but if you're HONEST with yourself, you'll know if this applies to you ;-) ... Retail store are not daycare & the clerks & staff are not your own personal FREE babysitters. If you cannot keep YOUR children with YOU & keep them acting somewhat civilized (i.e. not screaming for 10 minutes straight or running themselves or buggies up & down the aisles) them keep all your butts at the house & order all your cwap online. Sure, you have a right to be there, but so do *I* Shopping should be peaceful & relaxing for everyone, not an exercise in 'how many times in a row can the little $&%^# holler 'MAMA MAMA MAMA' before the %&*$(# bitch just answers him already?!!''

Ahh, all better now. Off to enter my reports :o)

Looong Tuesday ahead

Tomorrow is going to be akin to hellish, or so it looks on paper, lol.

I have six assignments to complete in Madison & Huntsville.
Three will be half hour or less. The other three will be 1-2 hours each :((

Those three started off being one hour or less each, then they changed it.
Poo heads.

If I leave at 8, might make it home by 5 - ugh!

But, it's all ok. :) I'll work in at least one quick shop tomorrow (Yes, it is all about the shopping!) Looks like I'll be off the rest of the week as I've not heard back from the 'chicken folks' yet & the stickers for undies won't be here til Friday or later.

Going back to fave shop on Wednesday & get that pink flamingo Quacker Factory top and the Bis Bis top I couldn't decide on. Hopefully find some dollar deals, too!

Mmmm, shopping...

Off to work on laundry & listings!
Pls stop 'n' see what's new at NoniesNook.com !!

Glorious Day of Thrifting!

Or three hours worth anyhow, lol!

Over 80 fabulous finds including another
St John piece for my little collection. :o)

Royal blue, melon, mint, and butter suits .

*drool*

Think I'll list 'em all about a month before Easter.
Ohh yeah...

The Clothes, The Clothes, Aye Yi Yi!

So, I decide I want to wear a polo top & khakis on my merchandising stint tomorrow, providing the weather's sunny & warm :o)

Of course, no polos are to be found in the closet, so I go to throw a load of clothes in the frontloader.

OMGosh! I'm finding tops that I've worn only once in the months they've lived here, and even more that have never been worn & that I don't even remember purchasing- argh!

Maybe I have been buying too much after all...

And what's with all the 'line dry' stuff? Is 'line dry' the new 'dry clean only'?

Get over it, clothes makers! We want it simple- wash, tumble dry, wear.
NO line dry, lie flat to dry, ironing, or steaming - KISS already!

Hello All Apparel Addicts!

I'm Nonie & I love to shop!

I scour the countryside & buy bagfuls of yummy clothing that I list for sale online.
