We left the house at 8:30 this morning. Our thrifting took us to Charlotte today. It began with breakfast at IHOP in Salisbury. Tim orders the 55+ Sunshine breakfast, which is supposed to be less food than the regular portion, but it sure didn't look like it was any less food! I usually get an egg sandwich with BLT and mayo, which I did today. I cannot order a BLT with egg or it comes as a double-decker and I cannot eat that much!
Here are my photos for the day.
|
Playing with the camera settings on my phone while waiting for breakfast. Still cannot figure out how to get the picture flipped. |
|
My favorite sandwich, half of it already devoured! :D |
|
Is this a variation of holly? The leaves don't look like the typical holly leaf. One of the Goodwills had a hedge row of this. |
|
A selfie taken with the new camera. |
|
Took several pictures of the sky. Since I was taking right into the sun, I used the BEACH setting on the camera. |
|
This one is looking through the window. You can see all of the dirt and the camera focused on that dirt instead of the sun! |
|
Zoomed in on this helicopter that was hovering over the interstate. Checking speed? Watching for accidents? Don't know. That's the color of the sky not looking directly into the sun. |
|
Loved this old truck. |
|
We finished thrifting at around 3:30. That is longer than Tim usually lasts. Since we hadn't eaten anything since breakfast, we found the nearest Ruby Tuesday so we could try their new 55+ items salad bar. It was good, but I don't thing it was $9.99 good, especially since I could only eat one plate full. |
|
These fake pine trees are disguising cell towers. They look odd. I wonder if one particular company puts these up? |
|
Found these spice blends at Tuesday Morning. Looking forward to trying them out. |
|
Some goodies found today. This is a Creative Memories notebook that has sheet protectors for stickers for scrapbooking. I am going to use it for rubber and cling stamps. |
|
The paperback books were still $0.99 and the hardback books $1.39 at all of the Charlotte Goodwills. And several of the Debbie Macomber books have 2 books in one. So, that was a bargain! |
|
This was my bargain of the day. This huge storage container was filled with cling and rubber stamps and a few other misc. items. |
|
This is everything that was included in the storage case for $12.99. The case itself had $17.99 from Hobby Lobby marked on it! |
|
I REALLY like these stamp storage sleeves! Gonna see if I can find them on line. |
|
Not sure exactly what these are. I thought they were for stenciling, but the "white" part is not empty. It is a very thin layer of something. |
|
Here's a closer picture. I'll have to figure out what to do with them. They were in the big storage container. |
Well, we had a good day today. There was a light frost on the ground this morning, but it warmed up quickly. Around 11 we took our jackets off. I am hoping my daffodils are close enough to the house that the overhang protected them from the frost. We shall see! :D
