jpegghostAhhhHHGH.... I'm tired. Yesterday I went to a funeral a little over an hour away, DEEP in bumfuck Texas, to a graveside service with no shade in 96F weather. I worked for 9 hours with no lunch break. That sucked. Also I was the only one wearing a mask, which was concerning. BUT it was a very pretty little cemetery that I enjoyed being at.
Scribbled out some of the names on the tombstones for privacy's sake lol. Despite the raging heat it was beautiful.
The day before, me and Alex went to the local antique mall. The place is MASSIVE, and you rarely see another person in your hall (it works on a grid system) so we felt safe social distancing there. Alex was sweet enough to buy me a pair of creepy porcelain deers to add to my creepy porcelain animal collection.
This is on top of my TV, with a creepy Eastern European angel from Friend Shannon and an assortment of cards I've received lately... The two terrifying rabbits are Timmy and Tommy, but the sweet little deer need names. Do you guys have any ideas?
Lastly, on the way out I found some cards from 1909-1913 for a buck each! And I will be sending them to those of you who gave me your addresses! I love reusing old cards -- They're often so beautiful and I'd rather use them to make someone's day than have them rot in an attic or in the trash. I will probably add a layer of cardstock to the back for my message to my DW friends, rather than erase or try to destroy any messages the people before it had written.
Look forward to seeing these things in your mailboxes!

Those cards are also pretty neat. I have been to an antique mall in ages, but you really can find such interesting things there.

One of those cards are for you, I hope you enjoy it! I put it in the mail late yesterday so it probably is beginning it's journey to your place today.
