Nice Violet .... What's a tag sale ? Like a garage sale or bazzare. ?

Sister, yes, exactly!
Do you like antiques?

Dusty · 11-27-2007, 09:18 PM

Not really , Violet .Never really got into that. But that dress is beautiful , I must say.

I LOVE antiques but if we all had the same taste it would be a little boring, wouldn't it?

Actually - I found a neat trick with Atomic Fireballs...I took a close-up pic of one that I had sucked on with a digital camera, because it looked like a planet to me. I blew it up...cropped it, added some special fx and it looked like a planet!

I sent it to some friends (one is an astronomer) and they wanted to know how I had gotten such a detailed image. The astronomer thought it was Mars (he he he

)

Anyway, back to the tips thing...

FIVE ITEMS!!!

I carry a briefcase around with me all day. I can't do that. At the worst time, my briefcase weighs like 40-lbs, no kidding! I have digital cameras, voice recorders, tripods, and so on. I'm one of those guys that if something happens, I set up right there and start documenting it! (he he he)

Five items...

...my problem is that if I took them to a thrift store, I'd walk away with TEN items, ha ha ha!

I got married just over 2 years ago, i did a lot of the house work at home with mum and dad, especially as my mum was unfit to do a lot of it. But when i got my own house i didn't know where to start, but was i got into a routine that was that. Routine is key i find.
