In case you were hankering for some wrestling muscle...


These plastic red cow things got to watch the marching band as well.

1 +1 = ?

A bag of frozen peas....


a bicycle....
hospital ?


So actually I did avoid the hospital but did take a crash on my bike. The afternoon before I was supposed to go back to work I wiped out on my bike right behind the apartment. Of course, waited until 8:30 pm before thinking my right foot was broken and wanted to go to the hospital. Of course, I couldn't drive there.....Stephane being the level headed one, suggested icing it (hence the bag of frozen green peas).
Did call in sick (for my 1st day) but my doctor gave me a clean bill of health and I was back to my old self by Friday. Classic!

last week's finds.....

 vintage wind up car
 deer head....
 La vache qui rit and Goldorak comic books...
 vintage cheese labels
 these really cool leather chairs
 charming abandoned storefront
We scored on lots of stuff...none of them pictured. Two glass vintage light fixtures for the kitchen at Chenedouit for the low, low price of €2,00 ! They just need a good wash. Some records, comic books,  plastic figurines. Made for a great last day of summer vacation.
