Tomorrow is here

at least on my calendar. Went yard saleing on Sat..kinda late--most start at 6 AM or so and close by noon... Discovered that is when the bargains are to be had.....unless you are looking for something very specific--then you need to be there at 6 AM.

Gal was about to close up and had a few items left: one being a Kenmore ZigZag SM (Model 1650) had ALL the cams, feet and Manual. She had just gotten it back from the 'SM Dr' so it was in fine condition. Told her I was looking for a back-up so she let me have it for a song and almost a dance. She even threw in a bobbin box filled with threded bobbins and a ruler cause she said it was going to a good home. Cabinet doesn't have a scratch either! ((Won't SIL be pleased when she comes for her annual visit :) She's 'leery' of my computerized Pfoebe.))

When she went to pick up this SM and hers, her DH bought her a top-of-the-line SM and told her to keep the other for her back-up.

It tickles me everytime I see it. If Mr. Esther had called and said that, I'd suspect that there was a Harley Hawg in the garage that I hadn't noticed. Polly

Butterfly-wings, that machine is indeed going to a good home! What a great find. These old machines are the best (sort of like us old 'gals') and just keep going and going, reliably.

Grins Galore! Think I shall name her that as the cams look like they are grinning. Sews a perfect straight seam : ) And the 'gears' are steel so they should outlast me.

Went 'yard-sale-ing' with DD Sat and came home with a handful of advertising inkpens. DS collects them so he was quite pleased. Since we bought a coupla other 'trinkets' the gal let us have them as it'd be one less thing she'd have to move. Least number of listed yard sales ever. Temps are not getting below 85° at night here so most ppl wait for fall to hold them.

Butterfly (Nice way to get outta the house for an hour or so and learn the town )
