Take For Granted Nothing

Take for granted nothing

Not even your sleep

Hold dear to your heart

That moment to keep

Today may be a last

Chance for you to share

Take for granted nothing

Hold those close you care

Tonight when you ly down

Want nothing or need

Take for granted nothing

But for who's love to feed

New And Old

Make new friends, but keep the old

Those are silver, these are gold

New made friendships, like new wine

Age will mellow and refine

Friendships that have stood the test

Time and change are surely best

Brow may wrinkle, hair grow gray

Friendship never knows decay

For old friends are tried and true

Once more we our youth renewed

But old friends may also die

New friends must their place supply

Cherish friendship in your heart

New is good, but old is best

Make new friends, but keep the old....

Those are silver, these are gold

A GypsysCaravan9 Cool So Cal Vintagicity

I'd like to talk vintagicity and introduce you to a pal of mine from Etsy who deals with quite the array of vintage goods.  Terri at GypysCaravan9 is a gal who knows her vintage.  She carries a wide variety of vintage to include but not limited to, apparel, housewares, jewelry, accessories, and much more.  I met Terri shortly after I joined Etsy and was a pleasure.  Terri also owns and operates TheVintageVendor another vintage shop which carries more of her vintage goods.  So, if you're in the market for vintage apparel.......

A Lovely vintage 70's Capelet might do.........     

Perhaps a vintage Franciscan Ware piece to replace a damaged one........











 

Going on

A Cool Vintage So Cal Shopping Experience

Thank You

I just popped in to revise a couple things and realized I've now 50 followers, wow.  When I decided to do this blog I had no idea, nor did I imagine I would have made it to 50, that's 50 followers, teehee!!  It's like the kuellest thing for me right now!!

  I wanted to thank each and everyone of you individually, but I have not the info on everyone so I thought I'd just make it a warm and fuzzy "blanket" thank you for taking the time to read and or follow this blog.  I also want to give special thanks for all of whom have posted comments of which I've truly enjoyed.  It's like the kuellest thing!  

I just hope I can keep your attention by posting more goofy posts, Etsy shops, and things that matter to me, that of which are from the heart.

THANK YOU GUYS

Sew Sew

For any of you seamstress' looking for a new or backup machine I thought I do a quick post about this Kenmore Convertible machine I've had sittin' around for years.  I just posted a comment on a fellow bloggers post about it as they had recently had down time with a machine.  I thought to myself, one needs a back up?  So, I thot I'd post some pics of the machine in hopes that someone out there may be able to use as a backup, trainer, or whatever.  This will probably need to be sold locally as the machine is heavy and shipping wouldn't be advantageous.  So, if you're interested you can convo me thru my etsy shop to discuss price or arrangements for pickup.

The machine comes with it's original manual and a box of attachments, but unfortunately I know nothing what so ever about sewing or machines.  I can however manually thread a needle.

 I'll go ahead and post it in my Etsy shop as well for local pickup only.

Little Boy That Was

Little boy that was
Now looks into the mirror
Little boy once graced
No longer filled with youth
But now an old mans face

Little boy that was
Years stole without a trace
Now of which have gone
Whisked at a blinding pace

Little boy that was
Is now a full grown man
Little boy that was
no longer plays pretend

Little boy that was
Is still inside this man
Little boy that was
Holds onto his hand

Although the years have gone
This man appears as old
Little boy that was

Lives deep within his soul

NeverTooOld
