    Default FREE!!!! I can't believe I got all this!

    What a weekend!

    I was invited over to a friends house this weekend for dinner. She is a nurse and recieves many items from her elderly patients and her home is over flowing.
    She gave me 6 beautiful turqouise glasses from the 50's a lovely corningware divided caserole in a beautiful blue with a snowflake pattern and a (i think it is nabob) ceramic canister of an elephant and a little nabob person sitting on top in a golden color. I wish I had a digital so I could post a photo.

    Then the next day another friend gave me a bike for my Dd and a huge box of clothes for my Dd and my teenage daughter. Really nice stuff....Old Navy, Abercrombe, etc.....

    I am still amazed....wow.

    You have great friends!

    You're right Michelle, I do.
    And it was when things went really wrong for us that they all came through and would help us in many small ways.

    Don't you just love it when friends give you freebies. About 3 weeks ago a friend gave me a huge garbage sack full of junior clothes for my daughters.
