Shopping Delight

I'm up bright and early...well for a Saturday I am. Mainly because Boomer decided it was time for me to be up. So he insisted on laying over my neck until I jumped out of bed. Silly dog!

I'm off to Lake Charles for the second weekend in a row. I've decided to hit the thrift store today. I need a few more pieces for my work wardrobe and so I'm going to venture to the huge Goodwill that's in Lake Charles. I don't like to brag, but I'm a fantastic thrift store shopper. My friends all ask me how I can find these deals and they can't, but it takes a practiced eye. I've been shopping at Goodwill with my mom since I was a wee tot.

I've even got some of my friends hooked on shopping there now. When I come back home to Oklahoma, my friend Gina and I always try to go there. I'll let you in on a little secret. That's where I got my wedding dress. It all actually happened by chance. Gina and I were shopping there and I happened to notice this gorgeous wedding dress there. I looked at the size, perfect size for me. I tried it on, it fit perfectly! The only thing that it needed was a new zipper and dry-cleaning. So, I got my wedding dress for $75 bucks. Quite a story huh? Yeah..I think so too.

Well, I'm off to my Mecca. I can hear it calling my name.

"Melissa...come shop at me...you know you can't stay away..."

Who am I to argue with that? Ha ha
