Where has the time gone?

Sorry.  Besides visiting my oldest son in Philadelphia over Mother’s Day AND seeing the FANTASTIC Frida Kahlo exhibit at the museum, I have been so glued to the most exciting political news of our time, besides the Kennedy years!

Thus, I have not had time to write.  This has done such wonderful things for our country, which sorely needs some positive energy! Regardless of your political views, you must admit it is an amazing thing to watch. 

My beautiful niece, Beth Harrison, just received 3 awards for her book , including         Check out her website via my Links page…….

needless to say I’m sooooo proud of this young lady.  Congratulations Beth.  (I think I have 2 more books in the store in Charlottesville.

OK, the store is officially closed in Charlottesville VA but I’ll be there Sat., June 7 serving Mimosa’s to the first dozen or so customers.  Come on out and help me by buying stuff that I won’t have to move!! 

I am putting final touches on my little, first ebook called “Antiquing & Treasure Hunting in Eastern VA” it will be packed with secret sources, tips and my leads for antiquing….watch my home page!

Send me a little pity — my youngest son Robert, 20, is home for…..a while.  He tried to make it in the Pacific NW but jobs are tight.  So “our plan” is for him to work here a few months and save his money to go back out there.  Boy is this an adjustment.  Any advice?  First, he has become a vegan, he sees aliens, he thinks every injustice is a government plot, doesn’t trust anyone with white hair, hates our music. And to think, we had just gotten used to having early, quiet dinners, controlling the remote, listening to the birds, oh well. Ya gotta love ‘em. 

Don’t forget to visit my friend Carol Olmstead at www.FengShuiforRealLife.com.  She is so awesome and knows her stuff.  Carol has a highly informative monthly e-zine….tune in.

Stay in touch!  Love Penny
