I'LL BE LEAVING FOR CONNECTICUT ON ANOTHER BUYING TRIP; IT SEEMS I HAVE SOME STUFF WAITING FOR ME THERE :) CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT :) I'LL BE IN WOODBURY SATURDAY FLEA MARKETTING & TAG SALEING & SUNDAY AT THE WONDERFUL "ELEPHANTS TRUNK" FLEAING AGAIN, THEN HOME BY MONDAY. IT IS A SHORT TRIP, BUT ENJOYABLE & PROFITABLE. SO STAY TUNED FOR MORE GOODIES & PICTURES & VIDEO ALONG THE WAY.
OK, I KNOW I HAVE TO STOP CREATING FOR THIS SHOW, BUT I HAVE SO MANY IDEAS, I CAN'T STOP :)
TO MY NEW "PEEPS" THAT HAVE JOINED MY BLOG IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS; I'LL REPEAT MY STORY ON HOW IT ALL BEGAN FOR ME & THANKS FOR ALL WHO READ ME; I LOVE WRITING & SHARING WHAT I'VE LEARNED ALONG THE WAY.
SO,WHEN DID I START TO GET BUSY:
IT WAS THE SPRING OF 1990, WHEN MY LIFE CHANGED IN AN ODD WAY. THEY WERE FILMING A MOVIE NEARBY & WHEN THEY WENT TO LOOK FOR PROPS, THEY WENT TO AN ANTIQUE SHOP THAT I SOLD TO & BOUGHT MY ITEMS, THEY WANTED MORE OF MY "STUFF" SO THE OWNER CALLED & WANTED ME TO TAKE PICTURES, I DID, BUT BY THE TIME "HOLLYWOOD" SAW THEM, THE ITEMS WERE GONE. SO I MADE HER A DEAL; I WILL MAKE STUFF FOR YOUR SHOP IF YOU GIVE ME THE INFO FOR THE STUDIO, AS THEY WERE BACK IN HOLLYWOOD BY THE TIME THEY GOT THE PICTURES :( SO I CALLED THE STUDIO, THEY SAID WHAT THEY NEEDED, I QUOTED A PRICE, THEY SENT A CHECK, IT CLEARED, I SHIPPED & HAVE BEEN STARSTRUCK EVER SINCE. SO MY NAME HAS GOTTEN OUT THERE & WHEN I TRY TO SLOW DOWN I GET BUSIER. FROM JUST ONE PHONE CALL I AM NOW DOING PROPS FOR MOVIES & SITCOMS; IT USE TO BE THAT I KNEW EXACTLY WHERE THINGS WERE GOING, BUT NOW IT'S JUST A PHONE CALL TO SAY WE NEED THIS & I DON'T ASK ANYMORE; SO IT'S A NICE SURPRISE WHEN I SEE SOMETHING OF MINE IN A MAGAZINE, MOVIE OR TV SHOW.
AND WHEN I GOT A CALL THAT THEY WANTED ME TO BE AN EXTRA IN SOME MOVIES, I ABOUT P*** MY PANTS, I WAS ON CALL, WOULDN'T YOU KNOW I WAS IN CONNECTICUT :(
