Am I Doomed To Failure Because I’m Not A Morning Person?

Am I doomed to failure because I'm not a morning person?

Am I doomed to failure because I'm not a morning person?


Have you read articles and books about the habits of successful people and read that one of the things they have in common is rising early? They get up before the rest of the household (Or maybe even before the sun. Gasp!) and…… 

  • Meditate
  • Do Bible study
  • Plan their day
  • Start writing/working
  • Exercise
  • Get housework out of the way
  • Blah, blah, blah

Happy, energetic, morning people

Sickening, right? The only things on that list that appeal to me even a tiny bit are the first three and that’s because I can do them without getting out of bed. Then when I do get up, I’ve forgotten what I thought about/read/planned. Because…….

I am not a morning person!

Tupperware Doilies and A Vintage Tupperware Video

Tupperware doilies

Vintage Tupperware. Some of it is downright fun! Did you know Tupperware made doilies? I had no idea until I ran across some a couple of weeks ago. They’re white plastic, soft and bendable. The 12″ ones could go under a plate and the 6″ ones could serve as coasters. Doesn’t that just about complete the perfect Tupperware table?

Estate Sale Finds Of the Week

Lady's Remington Electric Razor and Psychedelic Case

I’m finally starting to get out to the sales again. You know, I was trying to get my stock under control by putting it out there… somewhere… for sale, but not seeing anything new is driving me nuts! Shopping yard and estate sales and, for many, thrift stores, flea markets, etc., is an addiction. We’re never truly cured, no matter how long we go without a fix. So two weekends ago, I went to the sales. Continue reading Estate Sale Finds Of the Week

New Antique Booth Pictures

Hand built farm table and benches

Here are the latest of our antique booth pictures. The word antique is used loosely, of course. I took the pictures on my phone and those fluorescent lights wreak havoc with the built in camera. That’s one reason you’ll rarely see booth pictures on the blog. They’re U G L Y! It was also a drop it and run day. We just can’t seem to get down there when I have a day to putter around with the look. So, there’s that. The pictures probably won’t be inspiring or anything, but here they are.

We took another, built by Ricky, table to the booth yesterday. This one has a different style legs. When he ordered them, I had my doubts, but I really like the look! We can’t keep farm tables in stock. I want the booth to have a variety of furniture, but he has to keep building what sells. These tables are so large, it’s hard to decorate the booth around them. We’re really need to expand whenever the booth next door comes open.

Hand built farm table and benches

A bargain at $575.00. It should be almost double that.

Table and benches sold in 1-1/2 week.


Mud room bench

Cute, Pottery Barn knock off mud room bench. Again, hand built. Marked down to $145.


Industrial metal table with marble top

We’ve had this metal leg table and green marble top in storage since I closed the shop. I used them mainly for display. Hate to sell it, but it’s time. $100.


MCM chairs and end table

Mid century modern isn’t big in the area of the mall. These chairs and table are still available. However, I don’t remember their price. They’re Erin’s.


We don’t ship furniture, but if you’re in the area, the booth is D-26 in Angel’s Antique Mall in Opelika. It’s worth a day trip if you’re even remotely close. The mall is HUGE!
