    I think you scored big with the briefcase/computer bag Kristen! I bought a similar one a few years ago, vintage and beautifully restored for a pretty good amount. Worth every penny I tell you. I believe you can wash the interior (It looks like fabric) and the leather with a mild soap like The Laundress then use leather products to moisturize the leather. I also loved the books you found. See you next Sunday!

    Hi Kristen, the leather bag is a quality item but it needs a good feed of leather moisturiser. The moisturiser may get rid of those marks on the back. The marks may have been caused by a belt buckle when the previous owner wore the bag.

      There's honestly not much of a routine. I just use Herbal Essences shampoo + conditioner, blow dry it, and straighten it. My hair is super thick, and very course, so it takes a long time to straighten, but then I don't have to wash it for about a week or so.

    Such a wonderful haul! I love the Oshkosh overalls. My daughters wore them 35 years ago and they are so cute and timeless. We were a big fan of Laura Ingall Wilder but I didn't know Rose had books. We got to go to the Missouri town where they eventually settled. There is a museum and you can tour Laura's house. You and the girls should visit someday.

    After every vacation, I say, “I need a vacation to recover from my vacation!” They are wonderful, but always tiring. Loved all of your finds! That leather bag is amazing! Buy some saddle soap and follow the directions to clean it - it will cover a lot of those scratches/marks. Although, personally, I think the “scars” make it more beautiful! The books are all wonderful. I would love to sit down and read them for myself. You and your girls are going to enjoy those for many years to come. That wooden easel is great. Not only can it be used while painting, you can use it to display a finished painting. (My husband is an artist and woodworker. He built a 6+-foot easel out of rosewood. It is stunning!) Poor Ivy! She (and you) have had a rough few months. I hope the carrier that you found at such a steal will help. Oh! And you can repair that little wicker chair by wrapping some twine around the leg and the base of the chair, then just tying a knot on the inside of the base. No one will even notice. Love the quality and cuteness of Oshkosh clothing! As always, thanks for sharing. Blessings!

    The Martha Years series is only 4 books so you have the whole set. Amazing finds. Some of those books are crazy expensive on eBay. I’m 50 years old and have read all the books in each series except the Martha books, but I do have them. I used to have all of them in each series and I decided to donate them to Goodwill and have spent the last few years slowly replacing them. Even though they are for younger readers, I enjoy having them. I also have a lot of the Dear America books. I love any books about the olden days and history.

    And that Ergobaby was an absolute steal! I own 2 of them (plus a doll one 😁), and they come in so handy. They hold a child up to about 40 lbs I believe, and honestly my 6 year old just hit that weight within the last year lol not that I'm big enough to really carry a child that size, but my husband can handle it.

There's another thrift shop nearby that's the best kept secret in Dallas. Some of the antiques are in mint condition and are dirt cheap. Too bad the Goodwill is in Omaha. I've only been to the one on Lower Greenville in Dallas, and it's not what it used to be. If you ever come back to Dallas, check out Genesis Women's Thrift. The proceeds go to battered women looking for shelter. Great stuff!

    Hi...you could have gotten a hammock frame. It's great if you don't have trees next to each other.

    You’ve peaked my curiosity with your coffee creamer!😋 Does it come in the liquid or powder form?

      The Blueberry Cobbler is the Great Value brand from Walmart. It's liquid and SO delicious!

    The hardback "Dear America" books are excellent, but a little mature for your girls yet. I read "Standing in the Light" to my fifth grade class, and they LOVED it, but it's about a little girl and her brother who were captured by Indians, and the subject matter is very intense. I suggest you read it yourself first--you'll love it, but you'll cry. I think the "My America" books are for a bit younger ages.
