ESTATE SALES AND BLACKBERRY PICKING

Another busy Friday on tap today. Started with chores and cleaning the chicken lot of all the greens stems that we have been pulling out of the garden and feeding them.
Hubbie and I went to work at church and finished about lunch time.
Daughter and her "little sister" K had been sale shopping all morning and called to say she had placed a bid on a refrigerator at the estate sale place I went to a couple weeks ago.

After lunch Hubbie and I headed to the sale to see what they had this time,stopping at another estate sale on the way. I found a chair for the sunroom to replace one that daughter is going to take with her and Hubbie bought a chop saw.

This chair fits in so much better out in the "outdoor room" as g-son calls it.

Daughter won her bid on the frig so we came home,got the truck and went to pick it up. She bought several other things at 1/2 price while we were there.

It looked like the storms were going to start as we headed home with the frig but we safely got it in the barn without a drop of rain.
Daughter and K had been picking blackberries at a friend's farm who got hit by the hail last week and had their entire crop declared a total loss. They have to cut their vines back within a week so all the neighbors are picking berries this week.
They are very large delicious berries. What a shame they can't sell them.Good news for us as we now have a bunch of blackberries in the freezer for jam and bread making later.

Since we still had time we went back out to the Verizon office to check on Hubbie a new phone since the face of his has been broken for a while. When I was there with daughter Monday they said he was up for a new phone but when they checked today he wasn't until January.

We stopped by sam's club for a couple things and brought a pizza home for supper. #1 son and g-son came up for supper. Son's color is so much better today and he says he feels a lot better. He thinks he was taking to much blood thinner,which he is now off of.
They stayed and visited most of the evening.
The rains never came and the clouds passed over without incidence thankfully. It hasn't been all that hot today ,with the cloud cover a nice 80 degree day.

I iced 13 caramel,6 chocolate and 3 coconut cakes tonight before bedtime.
My back is hurting pretty bad so I'm off to take a hot bath and get some rest as it is after midnight already.
Thankful for all the blessings of the day and for son's healing.
Good Night and God Bless.
