I was such a misery guts yesterday but you all put a smile on my miserable face .I hate to moan but sometimes it must come out and to having you all comment was so lovely.Thanks so much.
Good news (in a way) is that a few months back we put a deposit on getting our plans thru council.Last week I asked the builder to wait as we werent sure about being able to get a loan (thats on hold for a good while too) We called today and asked the builders to send back the money minus the house plans and they are so.... my piano is safe.
All we do now is start saving for the council plans again but that will be later in the future.So all your positiveness has been wonderful and what else is wonderful is I can still go opping lol
See I found some things but was very good and it was light on....
10cent books including one ladybug
Golden hands (seems all my folders may have been sent to oppy when we moved in 09 grrr) these were all for $1 but dont you hate it when poeple write the price on them with pen?
Pretty pearls with Sterling clasp $2
Wool blankie ready for the next cold hit.
Another old port what can I say? I love em! I also fill them easily.

Glad to hear things are looking up and you can still op! 20 cents is here and there is hardly going to break your bank. Anyway, I hate it when a big unexpected expense comes our way too.
love that woolly blankie Nelly...good to hear the smile in your voice again x
Your a tease Nelly with that basket!! Glad you dont have to lose you piano :o) Scarlett x
Love the little Bunty book - I used to get the comic when I was young! They only brought out these little books occasionally and I would have to save up to get one. Brought back a few memories.

Fantastic Nelly! Can't wait to see what is in the basket....I can't quite see! Tam x
So glad to hear that things are going to work out for you! And thank you for sharing your op-shop lovelies ~ I love the old books ~ and am looking forward to the basket surprise too :) Love Brenda
Hurrah to piano being safe! I love Golden Hands, the photos are hilarious x
Hi Nellie! It's hard to fathom that you are buying up wool blankets and I'm cranking up the air conditioning....blogging is an amazing way to connect people from all over the globe, isn't it?
Good to hear you have your piano. I had a neighbor, who moved sadly, but she would play the piano when she couldn't sleep; sweet gentle melodies that I would hear, and then smile and drift off again to the lovely serenade. Just so glad you have yours.
You know, woolly blankets are so pricey here, but I only use them but two months out of the year.
I think you might consider, if you've some to spare, putting up a collection of things like that on your selling site.
You know, start boxing things into like groups such as winter stuff, summer things, and so on, then put them up with the appropriate season, or better, get them up a month prior to the weather change.
Hope this doesn't sound too nosy! Lol! Looking forward to seeing new items up for sale in your shop!
oh good news on the piano♥
what's in the basket... I'm betting its ANOTHER wedding dress???!..
come on Ann, stop reading and start blogging & reading. Promise we' ll all follow you and read your posts and make nice comments, we are such a friendly bunch, all us FoN 's... [thats Friends of Nelly] ♥
I'm glad things are better for you today.
You are a tease with your basket. xxx
You and the piano are safe - hooray!!! Well my dear friend, you have the most enormous strength, determination and yes, so much compassion it hurts. I have all my fingers and toes crossed for you that you will end up in a place you can call home, paint the walls in nutty colours, garden to your hearts delight and have plenty of room to display the glorious treasures that keep my heart aflutter. Many hugs to you xoxoxoxo
aww i am as pleased to read your post today and so pleased to hear your piano is safe ;-)) Lovely finds sleeping beauty well done you ;-)love the magazines and the suitcase. Can't wait to see what is in your basket ;-)) dee x
Very happy things are looking a little brighter for you Nelly!
The pearls are lovely!
I love the wool blanket, I found one last summer garage saling for $ and it kept me nice and toasty all through the winter! So it was a lovely investment.
So glad you've had some good new Nelly. That suitcase is so lovely! I can't help but buy them too.
