Mighty Finds: Portland

More of our Portland Finds are up at the Mighty Finds shop.

Last time we did a thrifting trip, I was surrounded by our wonderful finds all the time and even though it felt really good to show you all what we'd found, I spent a lot of the time thinking, "If this doesn't sell, I'd love to put it in the family room...."

This time all the stuff is at Maggie's place so when it shows up in the shop, I find myself nodding and smiling at the stuff I'd forgotten we found.

Also I remember how when we were in Portland it seemed like I was getting a sneak peek at spring. I thought Portland and San Francisco were just a month ahead of Detroit. I thought soon we'd be feeling the same way.

It's been over a month now and winter just keeps coming. I've lowered my standards from hoping there's no more snow. Now I'm just hoping there are no more snow days off of school.

It got warm here in Dublin yesterday - I'm talking nearly 55 degrees - but then today it got windy and started pissing rain. Sigh.

When it started snowing yesterday in Chicago, I felt a fiery rage bubbling at the surface. Could be hormonal, or it could be that Mother Nature is a real b**ch. Winter needs to end already!

I wish I could bring good news from the sneak peek front, but it's snowing in Portland today.

I'm liking the vase.

Yep, totally snowing in Portland today. And, I'm not wearing any socks. Awesome!

I did have sympathy for all of you on Friday because here, in Southern California, the weather could not have been more perfect.

It snowed in Portland again yesterday (3/30). I thought it was hail, but the news called it "snow pellets." Go figure. We decided there must be more terms for snow the farther north you go until you get to Alaska where there are 20 or something. We're from Northern California so the only bad weather we know is fog. And 100+ degrees in the summer.
