The Nursing Home Mum is in, is only Respite till we get her in one permanently and we would much prefer if it was down here a little closer to us.This one is closer but still an 1Β½ drive one way.I will start that process after the Silly Season.
Gail @songbreeze Merry Christmas back atcha. This year will be so special. It will be Miss P's first Christmas really. Last year she was just that little bit too young to understand what was going on. This year its going to be great to watch her little face when she see's all the pressies LOL. Of course Darcy DGS is too young to understand anything, too young to even open his pressies LOL.

Don @donscns I am glad the seller at least refunded you but how rude not to communicate with you.How much does it take to send an email of apology and stating you will get a refund.
Amber @amber1986 I dont live close enough to the ocean to actually hear it from here. I am just shy of 50klms inland But close enough that I can get there and enjoy without too much fuss.
Shelly @shellyrae37 Nope not an IPad. I bought a Samsung Tablet. It runs on Android and is smaller then an IPad.Much better for me to carry around in my handbag πŸ™‚ I love it so far, though I am not using it all the time.
Bear @jpthings Keep buying those lottery tickets πŸ™‚
Beth @bethofvt I don't mind almond milk either and on the odd occassion I make my own. I find some of the store bought ones are full of sugar.But most times I just have skim milk which I like too.

Hi Bear @jpthings LTNS. Glad you found some time for a visit.
I received an email from Fran last week. She is having some eye problems caused by the Prednisone, like Cataracts
and Glaucoma. As soon as she can see better she will return to the Glass Chat. She also informs me that Marypat is not doing so well. She has had some back surgery and a hip replacement.
Helen @10bbg10 Thanks.It would be nice to do that each week with just one item

Carl @carma Thanks As you well know, I know nothing about carnival glass and I was very curious about the going price of that piece.
Helen @10bbg10 Good luck with your Xray

Bear @jpthings Maybe if you have a new dishwasher they might be safe. These new ones have all sorts of cycles and aren't as harsh as the old one. But saying that. I have no idea if it is a good idea or not to use a dishwasher on them.

Surely wish I could find a place like that. Well actually there are a couple of places where they have monthly swap meets, but I just can't take the heat. It was 94Β° today and it's not even summer yet.

@jpthings BEAR ... I'm really pleased eBay has the seller exclusion feature. It sure has made searching for certain things a lot easier.

The wind has stopped and temps are to reach 19C so looks like I will be in for a very nice warm day. I might spend it outside doing some work in the yard.
Gail @songbreeze I didn't get around to lolling about in the bean bag in the sun reading my book. Fiddled and pottered about achieving nothing LOL.
I have not seen that feature you mentioned. I am going to have a look later on after I have my breakfast to see if I can find what you are talking about.
Hi Bear @jpthings I have not been a good girl this week. I only went swimming x2. Water temps are dropping but still quite pleasant. It is down to 18C
Nancyjg @nancyjg I feel the same as you re paying prices. At GS I expect it to be low, Swaps can be higher then GS and Antique Shops the top price.
Bob @baabaamason LOL Downsizing!!???? I am sure most of us here can relate to that. Its harder than it sounds isn't it? LOL
Don @donscns I hope they can get on top of those bushfires.
Marty @sellingthings I am glad to hear no one was hurt in that storm. It must have been very scarey though.
Reen @reen Enjoy your time with Katie! Sounds like yu two are having a ball.

[…] http://glass.chatroomboard.com/activity/p/14153/ Sat, 12 May 2012 13:12:10 -0400 @jpthings : That's kind of the situation, but not really. Did some checking in addition to what I've heard "word of mouth". It was the grandparents of the current owners that first opened The Cick-a-Dee Restaurant back in the early 50's. They operated it until the mid 1970's & all was well. The children took it over then & ran it until the mid 90's & all was still well. Then the grandchildren took it over. All was still well until about 5-6 years ago & then they started having some "consistency" issues. Quality of both food & service became a bit uneven.

On one of our visits about 3 years ago both the food & service was well below par for them. We chalked it up to just having a bad day. We went again a few months later & all was back up to standard & it still was the last time we went last fall. But, word is that it went downhill VERY badly during this past winter. Poor service, shortcuts & compromises on the food quality etc. Apparently there was a split between the brothers & sisters running the place too. The older brother was upset at the shortcuts & compromises in quality being undertaken by the two younger ones & a family feud developed. Issues could not be resolved, so the older brother left the business & started up his own restaurant in Lewiston, about 12-14 miles away. The aforementioned quality issues caught up with the remaining two siblings, so they called it quits & closed the place two weeks ago. Really a shame, as the place was somewhat of a "Maine Institution" for over half a century.

His last buy off me was not profitable for him, so it all evens out in the end. He & his wife are lovely ppl and a very interesting to talk to and they work very hard at hunting their treasures for ebay. They travel a lot of kilometres, have motel bills to pay as well, when they travel a long way from home.
So I do not begrudge them one little bit. I was glad that it was them that bought it. I am just a little regretful that had I chose not to eBay I could have had an extra $100-$150. But thems the breaks,you win some loose some
Bear @jpthings I often check their auctions out,have been doing so for many years, because they find so much good stuff and it is very interesting to see the prices they get for some items I would pass by. I have actually purchased off them too on eBay a number of years ago when I bought the small green glass mixing bowl to complete my set.
Dh used to buy a lot of unrestored furniture
off them , when ever they would actually set up a stall at one of the local markets. He was always very cheap and with some TLC DH would restore and tyhe furniture would go into our shop
I always price for the swaps accordingly to leave room for any eBayers to make a profit. And I never begrudge anyone from buying off me and selling at a profit, that is the name of the game after all.
I am a firm beleiver that each item has its levels and shold be priced so. Garage Sale should be cheap, very cheap. (next to no outlay in costs for the venue used) Plus GS are all about clearing unwanted stuff out. so cheap will make sure of that LOL
Next level up in price are the markets and swaps,sell at a price where the next person can make a profit, but at a price where you can make a profit, cover the costs of running the car,petrol and site fees
Then the highest price should be at the Antique shops, where they have a lot more overheads, so their profit margin needs to be higher to cover all those fees. Rent, phone bills, insurance, staff,etc.

@nona NANCYJEAN ... oh, I keep almost nothing. I've already listed it on eBay. I have such a small house and no room nor even desire to have a collection. I love buying and selling and mainly the treasure hunt. Once in a blue moon, I keep something.

Shelly @shellyrae37 Living in a region that has the higest rate of skin cancer my DD is very conscious of all the risks so keeps Miss P well covered. Miss P even at such a very young age when she wants to go outdoors she says "Hat hat hat" She looks for her hat and puts it on πŸ™‚ DD is very fair skinned too, so I have educated her from day one Plus watching what my DH went through..well... lets say that was the biggest lesson . So it is always 'slip slop slap' before going outdoors, even if for only a few minutes
'Slip Slop Slap' is an awareness program that has been run down here for many years. Slip on a shirt, slop on sunblock and slap on a hat.
Thanks for the update on Lucy's family.Give them my love and tell them I do think of them often.
George @george ..OH to be young again and to have no fear LOL..Naaaa I don't think I would risk it 2nd time around LOL
Katie @fyrqueen πŸ˜† your story of the hitch hiker reminded me of the time DH & I were in "Hippy Country" we picked up a young mother and daughter hitching...eeeeeewwwwwwww they stunk of cats urine..well thats what it smelt like πŸ˜†
Bear @jpthings I never thought I would ever be a Grandma. Not that it bothered me. But now I am , it is the best thing in the world!! And the timing was right, for all of us. For me especially after loosing DH, Miss P has filled that void.
And I don't think DD & SIL knew just how much love & joy a little one could bring into a home. So much so that Pssssst just between you and me, don't tell anyone yet but I am going to be a Grandma again in October . πŸ˜‰

Miss P is a darling but she will never be smart enough to outwit Grandma and play me against Mum LOL But I am sure she will give it a good try LOL Must tell this story. She loves my red framed eye glasses and she can’t help herself, she must touch them. I tell her NO she is not to touch Grandmas glasses. She looks at me with those gorgeous smiling blue eyes, grins and then cuddles & kisses me. Thinks she has won me over and then proceeds to touch my glasses again. I again teller her No and again she cuddles & kisses me and again thinks she has won me over and touches my glasses. I then tell her Grandma will take all the cuddles and kisses all day long but she is still not to touch my glasses LOL So she gives up when she realises that when Grandma says No she means it and there’s no getting around me.

Kinda got to moving too fast yesterday and never got a chance to comment on posts....

@kasi KASI ... I had a Walther Pelican frog and bowl and sold it last year to a woman in Australia.

@fyrqueen KATIE ... your travel sounds like a horror story. What a mess! Sorry it turned out so rough and sure hope your trip home is uneventful. Such good news that your friend's DH is a bit better.

@jpthings BEAR ... what a busy time for you! Hope all the birthday and holiday celebrations were fun!

@sjell BETTY ... always good to see you popping in. Hope you make it here more often.

@donscns DON ... definitely looks like the glass got the measles. I'll have to take pics

I finally have my driveway done. I've only been waiting since January. But "too wet" is "too wet" so just had to wait for better weather.
Amber @amber1986 Keep up the good work on that therapy. OMG did we do some walking on my holiday!!! It was a holiday where we all ate heaps but no one gained any weight. I actually lost some πŸ™‚
Shelly @shellyrae37 Tahiti would be nice.
Toby @abzoid OH NO!!! NOT two Mondays! πŸ˜†
Bear @jpthings Good Luck treasure hunting

I'm amazed daily at the vast array of knowledge in that group.

I don't have that many references so of the ones I have that don't show lids I assume (wrongly) that they were part of the standard table set. So much to learn...so little time.... πŸ˜€

@jpthings BEAR ... I wondered if it were perhaps not an American pattern... maybe Canada or Europe. No longer have a viable link for pressglas.

I have several similar shaped cov'd sugars in my collection. Photo, not mine, but that's just one example

You have either a spooner or a sugar without a lid, most likely the latter. There were very few EAPG open sugars, especially in that size. It's mostly likely from a table set (creamer, covered sugar, spooner, covered butter). I'm not aware of any EAPG table sets with an open sugar.

I think that is such a pretty pattern, but I had no luck trying to find an ID for it when you posted it earlier. Are you on Facebook? There's a really good Early American Pattern Glass Society group there with some top people who could look at the picture and help with an ID.

I've spent the whole bloomin' morning trying to hook up my Xbox Kinect. I got most of it done but still befuddled by how to be able to connect with Netflix... Will think about it later.

@shellyrae37 SHELLY ... our dearest dearest Shelly, having to go through so much in past couple of months and now 2 deaths in 2 days. Sending most genuine prayers and thoughts for comfort. (((((Hugs)))))

@ohiostar FENTON ... what absolutely fantastic items. Lucky lucky you!

@justmim MIM ... oh how I always enjoy sitting on your side porch and sharing coffee and cookies with you!

@jpthings BEAR ... I know I've seen that pattern before. Will see if I can locate anything on it.

Gail @sonbgreeze Yep it was a gruelling trip. And a big part of the drive was slow going with very steep & winding roads. But the views were spectacular. Such a gorgeous part of the country (on the outskirts of the Blue Mountains)
Shelly @ @shellyrae37 LOL actually no our money is not green πŸ™‚ Our $5 note is purple, $10 blue, $20 red, $50 yellow, Our $100 is green
Bear @jpthings the scenery was beautiful both way. The home way was not as steep and winding. The first part of the route I had never been to before but The last part of that trip is a route we use to go to some other swaps. Still it was nice to go a different way.
Julie..off to have some breakie and then time to mow the lawn AGAIN

HI Gail @songbreeze I have made no plans for Australia Day as I am usually doing a market. But organisers have decided to change the day. Too wet to do anything anyway.
So I might try to get more "stuff" packed & into the van (in between the rain) for the market. Will be leaving tomrrow morning.
Bear @jpthings Thanks for that article.
Don @donscns LOL have fun with the blacklight. It is also very good for checking if anything has been repaired
Reen @reen I haven't had a chance to watch your video yet. I was just about to yesterday when I got visitors.
amber @amber1986 LOL Its Ok I won't be needing you to skitch 'em .Both buyers have now paid πŸ™‚
Mary @mary geez I am sure I have seen that cake plate somwhere? English? Maybe Sowerby? Have a very close look in the centre to see if you can see an Rd No.
Happy Birthday Jesse.

@enchantmentglass KELLI ... we really are hoping the rain will reach us here. Suppose to come in sometime tonight and we are hoping for 2-4". We really need the rain.

@jpthings BEAR ... thanks for linking to the article on collectibles. Always like to see what people are searching for.

@donscns DON ... can't believe you've not had a black light before. Great fun!

@wattleihavenext JULIE ... hope you have a very enjoyable Australia Day!

Good night to all....

We had a day back in 1992 that everyone around here still talks about. Fortunately, we had warning a day or two in advance so were prepared. We woke up to an actual temperature of -42 below zero. The windchill factor was running -65 to -75 below!! Everything was shut down, schools, stores, banks, PO, the ski areas......everything. Warnings were issued to stay indoors, as any exposed skin in those kind of conditions can freeze in less than a minute. It modified considerably the next morning. It was only -30 below & no wind chill.

@jpthings BEAR ... which Heisey books have you checked so far. I have Bredehoft's HEISEY GLASS 1925-1938 and Bredehoft's HEISEY GLASS 1896-1957. Have you, @nona NANCYJEAN, and @george gabla GEORGE already searched those two books? If not I'll check when I get back from Church this morning.

@jpthings BEAR ... I really don't know who made the set or what it is called. I'm putting it in the mall but usually I try to place a date or time-frame on my tag and just hoped the Wheeling book might give a date for that decorating pattern. Thanks for taking time to look for it.

I'd still be packing and tagging but I just ran out of boxes. I bought another bundle of 10 yesterday, but it's 9:30, dark outside, and they are still in the car as I was too lazy yesterday to bring them in. Tomorrow is soon enough to continue. Actually, now that I've stopped for a few minutes, I realize how tired I am. πŸ™‚

Spent all day yesterday in Joplin restocking and rearranging my booth. Was pleased to find out that they had a booth for rent just across the aisle and one space up from mine. Since the building is 40,000 sq. ft., I was thrilled to get a space right by my booth. It's smaller, but I'm still happy it's so close. Of course, that means buying new shelving, and back to unpacking, retagging, repacking, etc. Will be very busy this next week or so.

@itsagas BILL ... I looked through the Sanford's Victorian Novelty Book last night and also through a Collector's Ashtray book I have but with no luck. Then slapped myself in the forehead when @jpthings BEAR said Heacock's VII. I never pulled that book out of the bookcase...and had I done so, I don't think I ever would have found it in that catalog page. Wow for Bear!

@donscns DON ... so glad your Shell and Tassel arrived in good order. I have a compote and an oblong vegetable bowl and I really find that such a lovely pattern. I found three little sauce/berry bowls in the pattern too. Rather regret that I sold the tray last year. Would like to have looked at it a bit longer. Well, eventually I sell all my glass as I really don't collect any. But sometimes, I just like to keep it around and enjoy it for a while before I put it on the market. πŸ™‚

Suppose to reach nearly 70Β° today. Good grief! You'd think I lived in Florida, not Oklahoma. Loving it!

Heading out the door for a lot of errands to run today.....

@whodat111 SUSAN ... We reached 57Β° yesterday and are suppose to reach 60Β° today. But you are right...the weather is suppose to be all rain on Monday and possibly snow on Tuesday which is furniture delivery day. πŸ™‚ Luckily, I live in a very small town and only about a mile from the furniture store so all should go well IF I can find someone who will take the bed and divan before Tuesday!!!!!! Eek!

Heading out for Church right now. See you all later.
