I'm all Excited :)

To be forum correct I need to talk about gardening first. Finally a week of great weather, although I'm behind on the gardening I'm moving along. I will finally be getting my mulch this week. All the gardens have had to be re-aerated because of the heavy rain we've had.

Now for the exciting part. I talked about collecting antiques before. DH took home a piece this weekend that I'm thrilled with. He buys and sell, except when I confiscate. I confiscated this weekend big time. A mahogany corner unit, with a bonnet top and bottom. It need very little work, a light buffing and a little touch-up.

While he moaning and groaning because I'm keeping. I now have to think about doing the living room over, and making room for my new addition.

Oh, it sounds lovely...both the garden and the piece!

How wonderful! I just love aerating and confiscating!

Could you confiscate some good stuff for me, too, Mamu??? I won't ask you to aerate because it sounds like you have your hands full.

"To be forum correct...." LOL..Mamu...do you think Nat might turn us in?

Where's that digital camera of yours? I'd love to see a pic of your new corner unit! A new piece of furniture can lead to a whole new room....hmmm....I'll have to try that!

I'm glad you're so pleased!!!

Pictures are coming soon. It's an Olympus and I love it. Been taking lots of pictures.

The only problem is I have to go to DD house and download the pic's. I can't do that at home, and I'm still learning how to use the camera. Learning how to adjust the color and lighting. For every 3 I take I erase 2. Trying to get the color correct. I am learning and I do have some aweome pic's.

Goody a neat find.Sounds great, can't wait to see pics. Whatcha gonna put in it? I have a great bowed little oak china cabinet I refinished that was a similar find. My father was an antique dealer in NY and whenever I went into the shop he would roll his eyes as I confiscated. I loved it, and he didn't mind too much.
oh yea the forum ... you sound like you're farther ahead in the garden than I am.
Today I tried to catch up but I'm way behind. My mulch is still sitting there waiting.

Wow! Congratulations Mamu. Sounds like you are a lady with many talents. Therefore, don't worry if the digital camera talent part comes to you slowly. While I love looking at photos posted on the internet - it is a bit of a chore (at least for me) so I triply appreciate when people make the effort to do same!
