Oh You poor thing!
I was so incredibly morning sick with my last 2 preganacies I threw up in front of virtually everyone I knew!
Hope you are better and Your dAd on the mend.
Oh Andrea love I'm sorry you were ill on Saturday....I can't imagine you looking anything other than VERY ladylike though as you politely barfed in your Hubbys car.... :o) !!
You certainly made up for it yesterday though with your LOVELY finds....What an AWESOME haul & I LOVE the ironing board....I always smile when ever I see those....!!
I hope your Dad gets to come home soon....I'm sure he's looking forward to leaving hospital for some RAP (rest & Andrea pampering)....!!!
Have a GREAT week....!
Cheers,
Tamarah :o)
No one likes vomiting, especially not in front of others but it sounds like you were in good hands. Gotta love a hubby who cooks and pampers!!
Great vintage finds on Sunday more than makes up for your lousy day Saturday. Love that ironing board.

Hi Andrea
It's a shame the Antique centre is closing, but it was bound to happen. Hope you found some wonderful goodies.
Tony's just got a workshop, no selling from where he is, we're going to try doing markets, my website and supply shops. let's hope it works out OK. The rents at the antique centre were so high in the end, we weren't making much of a profit there anyway!
Yes me too, always loved tussie mussies, in fact I started growing a few versions of geraniums specially to make some, Guss keeps weeing on them for some reason though...needless to say they're not surviving!
It sure is getting dark and eiry , might get the washing in while I have a chance
Goodness this was a long one, probably should have emailed you directly instead...oh well
take care, Gail xxx
Hi Andrea,
So nice to find your blog (via Tamarah with an "H"). Lovely rose trays.

I hope you are feeling better and that your dad is too :) You found some fantastic things! That must have cheered you up!
Hi Andrea, thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving such a lovely comment! Love your blog & you have some great thrift finds, I'm looking forward to following you too!!

P.S. Hope you are feeling better!!
It sounds like your Sunday was perfect! Just as well I wasn't with you we might have been fighting for the same things. Although when my friend and I go we have a rule 'whoever sees it first is entitled to it', sometimes we swap things.
