My, we are so ...You have some treasures there Mona. My, we are so alike in some ways, dear. I would have had to buy the doll and the moose as you did because, like you, I felt sorry for them. In England we have <br />Charity Shops and I always feel sorry for the unwanted toys, especially after Christmas. The doll, now rescued, is a welcome addition to your family and a playmate for the other one. I can't remember her name. I love Berenguer dolls too. I have Little Pup over here in Tennessee.<br />Yes, I have also bought back china I parted with years ago. I understand my motives perfectly. I am buying back the happiness those things gave me years ago.<br />Keep looking, keep buying, keep showing us your purchases.<br />I wonder if I could get Larry interested in taking me to a garage sale sometime soon.<br />Could you do a post and give me some tips on how to get the best out of them. You know, do's and don'ts. I wouldn't want to offend anybody.<br />Thanks, StarStella Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06699491230987143490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081468613531112998.post-15084781410366779892011-01-12T14:46:20.360-08:002011-01-12T14:46:20.360-08:00Mona, what a treasure trove of finds.

We had to leave our home for several weeks a couple of years ago because of sheet rock repairs on our old home. It was a disastrous project which taught us never to leave home and let others work on it when we were away. So now we try to do as much as we can ourselves, but roofing and AC are not things we can handle, something about hieghts and lots of heavy work. Hope your hubby feels better soon and that you have heat again.Beatrice P.

Goodness gracious me! You clearly had a great deal of fun, but I can see next Christmas, you'll be putting up even more decorations & you know what that means...even more to take down & pack away afterwards! Guess what, Mona - you're incorrigible! <br /><br />The set of decorations take me back to my childhood (I'm the same age as your eldest son, BTW). My Mom had almost exactly the same ornaments as these at that time. We were living in what was then, Southern Rhodeasia (Zimbabwe today). Beautiful! No wonder you couldn't resist them.<br /><br />Dolly looks so happy to be "home" and loved once more. You've cleaned her up marvellously and dressed her so prettily - she looks like new! You're definitely forgiven for rescuing her :)<br /><br />The books??? Well, who can live without reading! No, I forgive you there, too :) They should keep you out of trouble for a while, anyway - give your back a chance to recover!<br /><br />The complete set of china??? Have to agree you have a point there. Nostalgia? Who doesn't give into it once in a while!<br /><br />OK, so that just leaves the hat and moosey - may as well grant you those as well!<br /><br />Now, may I please have a cookie?????<br /><br />Hope the new AC & roof repairs are coming along nicely & that you'll have NO MORE TROUBLE from either in 2011 & beyond!<br /><br />Thanks so much for visiting me today - I see you've left comments on several posts :)<br /><br />Hugs,<br /><br />Des xoDesireehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01069419364783245762noreply@blogger.com
