Shwing! You must have been just giddy with delight!
I’m speechless.
Oh no, not again!
Lovely patio, though, blooming with good cheer.
Got to LOVE the Goodwill! What a treasure to find! Patio looks great!
What is it? It looks too big to be a CD or DVD. Is that one of those LaserDisc things they had back in the 80’s?
Mom, send the turntable!
That’s like £1… that’s amazing!
I also found Chubby Checker’s first album (with the Twist included), a Donny Osmond album from mid 1970’s (with the Donny poster still inside!), and the first Depeche Mode album.
(personal note to friend, Tuck — they had the complete Loggins and Messina collection, but I know you already have that)
I also checked out the books, but no first Edition Hemingways, just Danielle Steel.
OK…grab the Kleenex and shut the door.
SOS!
I love ABBA – did you catch the A&E documentary?
Your garden looks fantastic.
ABBA AND look at that amazing garden!!!
coolio!! you both did a great job.
There’s a reason you found that at the Goodwill.
such a deal!
How the heck can someone sell their Loggins & Messina collection? Aside from that one character flaw, clearly they are good people!
i’ve never actually been to a goodwill store, i’ve donated to it, in those bins, but never been to their stores.
your garden looks AWESOME!!!
I’ve always found thrift stores a little creepy, because I imagine that a lot of stuff comes from people who have died, even though I know this isn’t true. But Sophia loves looking for art and quirky stuff, and I sort of get a kick out of finding the ugliest stuff possible. If I knew Schmutzie’s address, I would have sent her this incredibly ridiculous-looking rooster lamp they were selling for five bucks. I wanted it for myself, but can you believe Sophia refused to put it in the house?
Man, you’re obsessed!
Also, for anyone old enough to remember albums, the music industry has never been the same to me since. There is nothing like actually holding the album cover in your hand and reading the insert, or lyrics. You actually feel like you OWN the songs.
I always lose my CD covers and get them mixed up.
God help the day when we all read books electronically.
And Tuck — Where is Messina now?
Nice garden!
I WAAAAAAAAAAAANT!
(I’m whining. The shrill, whine of a girl who loves her some ABBA. I bet you can hear it 3,000 miles away)
Oh grooooaaaaaaaaan
All the flowers look great! Sounds like maybe now you’ll have more respect my garden blog.
I just dropped off a bunch of stuff at goodwill yesterday. You know there is shopgoodwill.com?
nice garden though
Neil–and this comes from a place of love–you need a haircut.
Do you even have a record player?
AWESOME!
You look so proud!
*banging my head against the desk*…
HOLY SHIT – how big is that container behind you holding that tree???
Neil… I SO own that album. If I can dig it up, I’ll send a pic. 🙂
That first pic is awesome!
holy cow! I LOVE ABBA!!! LOVE THEM!
Wow. That patio is amazing! Simply gorgeous.
And I like ABBA too. And I’m not gay.
More ABBA? Dude, man up and get some Kelly Clarkson or something.
