poor, pathetic little thing....

hobbies.
we all need them.
some of us (ME) already have more than i have hours in my day.
and yet...
i continue to hobby.
thanks to AMANDA over at www.vintagedutchgirl.blogspot.com,i've once again got the refurbishing/modifying bug. little miss handy-pants reminded me that on wednesday mornings the LC thrift store sets out 'new' stuff. lucky for me, this week was 50% off EVERYTHING!!!
SCORE!!!
since the 5 magazine holders i ALREADY have won't suffice....i HAD to have another. (collecting magazines is yet ANOTHER hobby!) this sad, sad excuse for furniture was sitting by, idly, waiting, possibly LONGING for ME. the pathetic thing even had a Stick-up under it's belly. can't you picture it now...sitting untouched, oppressed, in the depths of some woman's basement, just waiting, like the old toys in the movie, Toy Story, to be loved,to be resurrected. i'm SURE that this same,good intended woman, had a husband who finally had enough and hauled it out, behind her back of course, and brought it to the thrift store. i know all this because my husband/and father would be ONE OF THOSE MEN!
lucky for me, i have rescued it from the burn pile, the belly of the whale.
wishing it, WILLING it back to life.
mercy me.
since i now have 'nothing' to fill my days with and the weather is getting 'cozier', i'm heading out to that messy, pit of a garage (maybe cleaning THAT SHOULD be a hobby!) and start transforming to my little hearts content.
yup, that's what i'll do.
right after i catch up on blogging, facebook, cleaning closets, blah.blah.blah......
ya all better stay tuned!
