Good morning! The sun is out and it's suppose to be a beautiful day here today - actually like summer is suppose to be!!! Yahoo! Well, I made it thru the weekend. Saturday was a complete bust - I had the migraine to end all migraines and never even got out of my jammies!! Luckily I felt better by Sunday and I went to the Madison-Bouckville Antiques Show with my friend Beth. I've wanted to go to this huge antiques show since we moved here to NY and finally got the chance. Well, it was HUGE and we had great weather, and I was armed with cash, checkbook and credit card just to cover all bases. And guess what I bought? NOTHING!!!!!!!! Everything was so overpriced it was depressing!! For me to not go crazy buying antiques spread over 90 acres of fields, you know it had to be way too pricey. Don't get me wrong, there was some nice stuff - beautiful furniture, crocks of any size, and on and on, but $375+ for a little bitty crock - I don't think so. Not from this bank account!! So we left early and went shopping at various little shops on the way home. I got a great little plate shelf at an adorable antique shop in Cazenovia, which was a quaint little town, reminiscent of those in Vermont or New Hampshire - 2 of my favorite places to go. We also stopped at an amazing furniture store which I will be dragging my poor hubby back to sometime in the near future!! We had a great lunch in this whole in the wall tavern which was really cute!! And the food was amazing. Then back home after a stop at Marshall's - a luxury we don't have here in Ithaca!! I came home to a quiet house and a new tree house in the backyard - guess my family was quite busy while I wasn't home! When they all came home from a nice dinner out, they gave me the grand tour of the treehouse which they were quite proud of and I have to say, it is quite the work of art! I bet if you took out a level, it would be perfect - leave it to Jack to build the "perfect" tree house. Anyway, Monday morning is here and we have dance and cheerleading placements this week. The busy season is upon us!! Hope you all have a great week!
