I went to Canton with 2 of my friends last Saturday. For those who don’t know, Canton is a huge flea market and craft fair that happens every 1st weekend of the month. I had so much fun looking for treasures. On their own, my treasures seem a little unusual or weird. I got, 2 stands of really cool gemstone beads, 5 stone rings, 7 pieces of silverplate utensils, i.e. forks, spoons, and knives, 2 old door knob plates with cool patina on them, 1 old painted door knob, a giant wooden fork and spoon, (see a theme here??) a rolling cart from what looks like the 50’s and Rusty the Rooster. I found him right before we were getting ready to leave. It was love at first cock-a-doodle-doo. Some have said he is very white trashy, or even trailer park-esk, but I LOVE him and he is some really fun, cool scrap metal art in my book. I can’t wait to put him somewhere I can see him every day. Livingroom maybe? Craft room? I dunno, but I love love love him.
Speaking of love, I was driving home from Wal-mart today with my load of groceries and I saw the sun setting thru my rear view mirror. I had a very strange thought. I acutally thought to myself, “I love my life and where I live. I don’t think I could live anywhere else and feel this happy.” !!!!!!!!!!!!!! HUH??!! I haven’t said that in eons!! I think I was possessed at that moment or had an out of body experience. All I can say (and I have said it before) thank GOD for anti-depressants and the ONE that is working for ME. I hope the feeling stays. I really kind of dig the whole happiness thing. Groovy.
Metal roosters, old forks, wooden doorknobs and a faboo sunset? Sounds like the makings of a very wonderful but kinda kinky evening!Just sunset’s do it for me but I’m older…lol! Love Rusty he is so you!!!! Hugs and Love MoM aka Art Hip…..
