A Cup of Joe and a Movie to Go...

Mornings at my house are becoming increasingly crowded... thanks to Turner Classic Movies... stop by and you'll find all manner of heartthrobs and glamorous gals in my living room.  This morning, I was almost late for work... again!  Why TCM insists on airing the kind of movies that invariably suck me in and onto the couch first thing in the morning... oblivious to time... on a work day no less... is beyond me.   


Today's movie... "Double Harness" with William Powell.  Who could resist?  (Not me obviously.)  A witty script and well acted.  Just a total blast from the (1930's) past!  If you have a soft spot for old classics... this is a must see.

A Leap of Faith...

Since last October, I have moved my little shop space four times in eight months... from downtown (across the river), to a small town 40 minutes down river, back to downtown (on my side of the river).  The early moves were prompted by the shopkeeper I used to lease space from.  In the midst of that chaos, I put myself on a waiting list for a dream space... a five minute STROLL from my office to a quaint brick shop on one of the oldest original downtown corners.  Sweet, original architecture... perfectly revamped inside and out...  When I got the call from those proprietors...  I moved again.  I was there for nearly three blissful months when my new landlords received one of those unexpected, once-in-a-lifetime opportunities.  So, they took it and moved to a considerably larger shop across town...  and as much as I appreciated the ambiance and location of that downtown shop... I appreciated my wonderful new landlords more...

so I moved with them... and am still settling in...

but already daydreaming about Holiday displays...

reindeer and jack o' lanterns and all that jazz...

great treasures... great prices... great people
Great Finds in Maumee ...  1414 Reynolds... find it ALL there!
