We had to go to Houston today to pick up a granddaughter clock my MIL won on eBay. It's been a long ordeal over one of these clocks. Ever since I found one and purchased it she's been on us to find her another.
Anyhow, we visited some antique shops on our way home. In one of them they had some broken glass paperweights and I'm thinking, what the heck they need love too. So I have my very first paperweights that will have a loving home on my desk.
I love finding things when we go out. We also purchased a secretary to put beside my side of the bed. It's solid oak with ball & claw feet, three drawers and beautiful. We also found a beautiful 1800's mantel clock we purchased for a steal at $20. I still can't believe our luck today.

p.s. Did I say I was happy I went to Houston...even if I couldn't get near the water.
