Quick Estate Sale and Other Stuff

Estate sales are getting fewer and fewer so when there is one it's pretty crowded. I went to this one on the second day and there was lots of people there. 

This is the house


A super cute ranch about 4 miles from my house. It's 1,800 sq ft and they are asking $389,000. Pretty steep price I think but it's in a popular subdivision. 

I couldn't get many pictures because there were too many people around, so I took these off of Zillow so you could see how cute the house is. 





There were a few random things. 


Several formal dresses. They were very pretty. They ranged from $25 to $100. 


A solid wood bingo set. Actually, there were two of them. $25 each.
 
Here's a picture of one of the bedrooms. 


That circled plant stand is one of the things I bought at this sale. 

The other is these pinking shears. 


Total spent: $16

Here is that plant stand in our spare room.



It's perfect for the area I wanted it in. Also note the Thanksgiving cactus is blooming! 

Here's a closer look. 


It's so pretty! 

In other news I saw this on one of my walks last week. 


I sent it to my daughter with the caption! 

We got a new ice machine at work. 


It makes little tiny squares of ice, perfect for chewing! 

That's it for me for now. A few things have happened at work that made me consider quitting but so far I'm hanging in. One of those things was fighting to get Thanksgiving off so I could host. 

But I managed to get it off and I'm having 10 people over. It should be fun! 

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving full of good food, family and fun! 

See you the next time and thanks for stopping by!

  1. That is the problem with working at hospitals and assisted living places. Two of my three kids worked those jobs in the past and often had to work holidays. It stinks!

  2. I could live here! The kitchen is a galley style. Nice, and beautiful countertops. Your plant stand was a really good deal. And the color of your cactus is gorgeous!!! I love snooping around people's homes!

  5. The turkey protest is a crack-up. My dil will be working a shift at the hospital on Thanksgiving. But our family is used to it as all as three out of the four work as essential workers. They all see it as double time and a half!
