Projects, projects! Making my list easier... plus Kesterson's Antiques in Madisonville.

Projects...

Do you have some projects to do that you feel are languishing on the back burner way too long?

I do. And maybe you do, too.

Today I'm going to start doing (keep doing) the "regular" things, just spending less time on them.

This will hopefully make time for other, just-as-important, projects.

Looking for antiques...
I recently re-visited the city of Madisonville, Kentucky. I got to visit a great antique store there called Westerson's Antiques. This store recently uncovered a beautiful sign on the side of the building. The newspaper was called, and many customer's came to visit.

This place reminds me of other fun General Stores I have visited. There are neat items in all the nooks and crannys there, plus, if you listen hard, some great stories and history of when the building was a grocery store.

Last time, I cleaned out her collection of hatboxes. I needed those. And found that finding hatboxes is not easy. They do have some new ones out there, but they are hard to find.

I loved the floor best. It's uneven, with character. And there is a place there where things, like jewelry and lamps, can be fixed. Be prepared to see some neat things there.

Here are some photos of my most recent visit there:

All for now,

From the Garden Spot... Flying with FlyLady, and Blogging

Today, as I explained on my other blog, The Moon and the Willow Tree, I told myself to get ALL my blogs done.

A scary Busy Bee from Clker.com











This is my second-to-last blog to complete today. The last one is a Club blog, for the local BGAMUG Computer Club. I will be posting about the date of the next meeting, and how the Auction went. Also I will be talking about my taking a year off from Webmaster duties vs. retiring (I'm NOT retiring...)

So... I thought I would share the FlyLady link again. Between "flying" and delayed maintenance here (plus organization) I am very busy. Add that to finishing books and projects and trainings. But getting things done requires MAKING time.

So this morning I am making time for these blogs, updating all, and then getting busy with other semi-fun projects and fun ones.

Here in Bowling Green, Kentucky the weather is really good. There was fog this morning, but hopefully this will burn off this afternoon.

How are things in your neck of the woods? Good, I hope.
