Thanks to my two friends who participated in Saturday Steals over the weekend! I know life is busy, times are hard, et cetera et cetera, so I don’t begrudge anyone else for not joining in my celebration of thrift.

The two stealers were:

1. Ros My English Friend from Ticklepea, who scored this sweet shirt for £6.60:

2. Mrs. Five-to-Nine from Five-to-Nine Furnishings, who scored this really cute toy box (now for sale after a makeover by Mrs. F-t-N herself). I’d buy it if I had any toys with which to fill it! Or even if I had any reason to think I might come into some toys soon! Which I don’t! So there!

Thanks, you two—I really do appreciate having participants in my Saturday Steals roundup. Makes life fun and worth living.

Stay tuned for the next round of Saturday Steals, wherein I really will post the Steal of a Lifetime (I never did get around to photographing that steal). Trust me: you won’t want to miss it. It’s beautiful.

As for me, things are looking busy ’round these parts after a month of really truly Taking It Easy. As August draws to an end (and thank goodness—I hate August, always have) I find myself employed in not one but two wonderful jobs that I’m lucky to have. And come September (with the onset of piano lessons) it’ll be up to three. Which, yes, is a lot of jobs to have, but the idea is that lots of jobs equal lots of dough. Hooray for capitalism.

I feel very blessed today.

Hope you do, too.
