A Big Dig

 I wasn't planning on hitting any sales last weekend since I was pretty tired already and still have not gotten caught up on the Etsy listing.  When I saw Magpie Ethel's post about her haul from a local digger sale I just had to head over there and see what they had for me.  Oh, my goodness, this house was packed to the rafters, literally.

 I dug the closets in the cellar, I dug under the rafters in the attic, I dug through the garage.  I am POSITIVE I missed a LOT.  There was that much.  Don't hate me, this huge pile of lace was $5.  They were seriously trying to move stuff out and priced accordingly.

 I dug through box after box of sewing patterns under the eves in the upstairs.  I broke a sweat and tied my jacket around my waist and my glasses kept sliding down my nose but I soldiered on.  As Mike and Frank would say, I was junk drunk.  I wish I could have thought of a place to store the creepy old manikin that was up there.

 A neat wooden box and odd little bits and pieces for assemblage projects.

 I dug for a good two hours and the only thing that finally stopped me was exhaustion.  It was pitiful.

 Isn't this a neat jar?  I know it isn't old but I haven't seen one before so home it came.

 A quick look at just a few of the patterns I found.  Sweet old patterns for little girls...

 And for big girls!

 Swing your partner, Yee Haw!!

When I got home I hauled it all in the house with the husband shaking his head that I bought a boatload of work for myself.  Big sigh.  I don't seem to be making any headway on getting caught up....
