Blown Away by Irene and Flea Market Style Magazine!

First of all, we survived Irene!  Our power went out yesterday but was restored around 5 pm.  My parents lost two trees, one of which hit Chris' car, but thankfully did no damage.  We all survived and now we are left with a beautiful forecast for the week.

Secondly, I was also blown away by an email I received from my friend Yanet.  It was titled "Flea Market Style Feature".  I was anticipating opening the email to hear her good news and was so happy for her.  But instead I read this....

"Hey girl, congrats!"

and saw this....


It may be in teeny tiny print on the bottom corner of the page, but I am still shocked and excited!  Woo Hoo!

Hope you all fared safely in Irene and had a wonderful weekend.  I am prepared and determined to continue my house hunt this week.  Wish me luck!

I was at the grocery check out line while looking through it and saw it. I turned to the lady behind me, pointed it out and said (in a REAL excited tone) "I know her!!!" She just kind of looked at me like I was nutty.

Anyway, I'm sooo excited for you!
