Boooo!


Happy Halloween Ya'll. I love this time of year and so anxiously await it getting here but when it does boy and I glad to see it over with!! Now we can nestle into a slow pace and get ready for a less hectic time called Thanksgiving. This year will be the first time in many, many years that I haven't hosted Thanksgiving at my house. I usually got all out. Don't know what I am gonna do with myself! Enjoy a clean kitchen I suppose! I have so many things to be thankful for this year. Hope you do as well!

Trash to Treasure-great flea market finds

I bought these heavy stainless steel knives for only .10 cents a piece. I got a set of 12

This is an old copper beverage dispenser. You can't tell from the picture, but it has a plug-in on the back to heat the beverage. Can't wait to see it all cleaned up.


This is a silver cream and sugar set. I paid less than $5.00 for this set.

This is a silver gravy boat with a ladle. I paid under $5.00 for this item also.




This is a beautiful glass vase with a lid. I think it will look great with fall candy inside. I paid $2.00 for this item.




This is a beautiful glass and silver bowl. It has a flower frog on top. This was my favorite find of the day. I only paid $1.00 for it!!!





This is a heavy silver tea pot. It is very heavy. I'm unsure of the maker because there are no marks on it.





Happy Fall, Ya'll !!!

I have to laugh to keep from crying!

I look back on my last several post and I realize I was so frustated because the flu had me so burned out. I truly felt if I walked into another room and say a patient with flu symptoms that I was gonna SCREAM!!! Well as I am sure you have realized by now that the regular flu season ended only to go straight into the H1N1 flu. Boy am I really tired. But, fall is my favorite time of the year and with this little nip in the air (yes even though this is deep South Georgia-there is still a "nip") I have a little pep in my step. I am really gonna try to do better with this blogging thing! I know I know-I have said that before but I really need an escape from sick children so this is gonna be it.

On another note- We had an awesome weekend. We hosted a Halloween party for 11-12 year olds. There was approximately 250 kids there! I think the chaperons had as much fun as the kids! I know you are thinking I am crazy! I go from seeing kids all day long at the practice to spending all my free time with kids too! Well you are either cut out for pediatrics or you are not! But I did get my dose of adults when I filled in in the ER for a 12 hour shift the day after the party. Now I am wondering--What was I thinking! Anyway, hope ya'll enjoy things to come on the blog and have a Happy Fall Ya'll!!
