BIG SALE

It was a great time at the Company C sale, my favorite September event.  I can never buy enough, because I always leave thinking about the one or two things I really should have bought and inevitably have to go back and check and see if they are still there on sunday and 50% off.  

This year I am already wishing I got two picture frames, because I have two great places for the one I got.  I hate to make the Tilleys feel more under siege, but I do know where there is one more.  I am also having a hard time parting with the rug we got for Kelsey last year and have to return (because it has a really weird, burnt rug odor - no kidding).  It may smell but it looks so good in her room.  And I know I could find another place for the really pretty one I bought today.  

It seemed like more people than EVER this year.  I should have been suspicious when I ran into three people in Jacks at 7 AM who were going...  And maybe a little  less stuff, or there were just a lot of faster shoppers there than me.  Considering I had an empty living room for five or so years at our old house, making any decision on a rug in even a day is a tremendous accomplishment. 

One thing I did do is get plenty of napkins.  I really do not need ANY more napkins.  Guess what you are getting for Christmas!

Hmmm....wonder what the deleted comment said?
So the Company C sale took precedent over the SLF Corn Roast...guess we know where your priorities lay...no more comments about corn from you guys!
You missed a delicious event...roasted corn with 3 different herb butters, eggplant, peppers and onions, roma tomatoes and cider to wash it all down. YUM! NIghtshade heaven!
