My day off....

Hi Everyone!  I hope your week is going well.  Today was my day off and I didn't get quite as much done as I thought I would.  I did get the mowing completed but I didn't get the trimming done.  There's a lot of trimming to do here on the farm. 
 I worked on the order I got for the trio of paintings.  
I worked on a set of signs for a client.  
I picked up some lumber for the bench I'm working on for one of my co-workers.  I did the fun stuff like laundry and cleaning.  And I went to my parents home and mowed the yard for my them.  So I don't have a finished project to share with you.  I have a couple of finds to share instead.
 I drove by the building that has an ongoing garage sale.  And this frame caught my eye.  I turned around and picked it up for $3.  
It has this little plague on it that says Snow Bound  by Marion Gray Traver.  It's a great size for one of my wire and clip message centers.
 When I got home from mowing at my parents home, I got a phone call from my Uncle Bill.  He was letting me know he had been here and dropped off another Jenny Lind crib.
And three rails.  I only got pictures of two of them because I had already put one away when I remembered to get my camera out.  He rescued them from going to the landfill.  So they were free for me.  Have I said recently that I love free stuff?  Well I do!  Thanks Uncle Bill!  Now I need to get working on these orders so that I can get them completed, shipped, and have something to share with you.  Thanks for stopping by.
