Getting back into doing things I haven't done in a long time

Some days I feel like a power horse running at full speed ahead doing whatever I want. I have to realize that I still have some issues with my back and another blockage which I am supposed to find out shortly about on my left hand side on the neck. Today I did something that I haven't been able to do in at least 10 years, weeding. I know you are going to think this isn't a big deal and who wants to do it anyhow, but I was unable to do it and it bothers me having to wait for hubby to do it and now I can. I just have to take my time and only do a bit at a time. Another thing that most people take for granted that I can now do again is walk. Yes I was unable to walk more than 4 or 5 feet for the past 3-4 years without having tons of pain and the feeling that my legs were going to give out on me.

So for today, I am enjoying doing things we all take advantage of.

Sewing machine drawers

I found these sewing machine drawers at the curb last summer and have been debating what to do with them. I may try to sell on and keep the other for a project....hum so many projects....what shall I do? I love the detail on each of the little drawer pulls and one of them has this little detailed corner which is so cute. the bottom of this one lost it's veneer After some research on some of my blogs that I visit I found some great ideas like this one by Mamie Jane's Here is another idea to use the drawers for from http://www.etsy.com/listing/65855791/salvaged-vintage-sewing-machine-drawer?ref=sr_list_1&ga_search_query=sewing+machine+drawers&ga_page=2&ga_search_type=all&ga_facet = Or this one from http://www.etsy.com/listing/63700962/vintage-oak-sewing-machine-drawer-with?ref=sr_list_19&ga_search_query=sewing+machine+drawers&ga_page=2&ga_search_type=all&ga_facet = another real cute design for candle holders f

End of a collection #Breweriana

For years my hubby and I collected Breweriana items. It started with beer glasses and within a year or two without realizing it, we had over 100 displayed in our A frame window ledge. Then it was coasters from every bar or restaurant we visited. The next level was Beer trays which we eventually sold off. This all started when we were making our own beer even managed to find the old quart size bottles and the cases. As with most collections it grows without even noticing. You know it's out of control when you need to clean over 100 glasses, twice a year. We still pick up glasses, coasters and trays here and there but more for reselling. This is the last bit of the collection that we no longer display and all the coasters have a pin hole as they were mounted in our basement on our barn wood walls. They are in relatively good condition for the next collector to come along and purchase them. Poshmark.ca/closet/bpagani Thank you for checking them out. update this batch which had lots
