Well, actually “looking for normal” would probably be more accurate. When I began this blog last fall I had no clue where it would lead or how many changes would happen in just a few short months.
In the past two weeks alone I’ve acquired shop space at Seneca Cannery Antiques and, most importantly, my Hero and I were married this past Saturday! Such bliss. Life is crazy busy and I have so many things I want to share with you. In addition to unpacking and sorting out all the wedding things (we hosted the wedding ourselves – three hours from home!)

I will have more on the wedding and how we pulled it all together later. (And that is my beautiful daughter-in-law, Sara, who performed the ceremony.)
We are very busy looking for stock for the shop (and cleaning/painting said stock, developing inventory logs, sales tags, …) Love the hunting and gathering. It is such fun to find things that I hope others will love as much as I do.
And we (and I am using the Royal “we” here) are in process of transitioning this blog from its current host site to a site that will provide much better functionality and support. The thing that has worried me the most, and ultimately forced this transition, was how the comments were not posting live and I had no way to respond to them, and there does not seem to be a way to resolve the problem - very frustrating. Obviously, my Hero is the one doing all the blog IT support and he is doing a great job of it considering the blog world is a fairly new field for him, technical guru that he is in many other areas. He is working on transferring everything over so nothing will be lost, but it is a time consuming process and moving the photos takes the most time of all. So until we get everything moved and the new site up and running, I’m going to use a few less photos and a few more words just to speed up the process.

Today I found several great items for the shop and tomorrow will begin work to ready them for sale.
This weekend we are hoping to find some display units at Second Chance in Baltimore and actually begin setting up our little shop. So very exciting!
It’s a bit like our own “White Box Challenge” and I do have a vision in my head of what to do with these 7x17 square feet of possibilities.
Now, where do I begin…
