Yesterday was a slow garage sale day. Not much to look at or buy and what I did see was priced for more than I could sell it for in my space at the antique gallery where I work on Sunday's. There wasn't a lot of activity at the gallery and I'm hoping that changes today. I like being busy. the day

I live in western Massachusetts but my news come from stations located in Albany New York. The primaries are just finished and now the mid term elections are not so far away. The ads I see tend to be for New York candidates. I have noticed that the campaign ads from the people running against one

Yesterday was a strange day. It was a killer morning with high heat and humidity. I cleaned a lot of outdoor planters, did some transplanting and brought about 25 plants inside. I moved a number of stands into my shed and changed the plant placement indoors. It felt good and I like it. While outs

It is brutally hot and humid in the Berkshires today. I was going to take it easy today but not stay in. So I went out briefly this morning to water some things, and decided I wasn't going to again. I have some things to do in my home, but decided, it is Labor Day and I don't have anything to do

Yesterday I worked at the antique gallery where I have a space. I had accumulated a lot of things the day before and was able to get most of the stuff tagged and out on the floor. I have never had so much to do. Without the few things I am saving for the holidays and a couple of things I have yet
