Happy Memorial Day Please Remember Our Heroes

 Happy Memorial Day Please Remember Our Heroes!

Make this a special day for you, and for your families. Please, remember to stop for a moment to remember those who cannot be with their loved ones. They have paid the ultimate price for our freedoms, and the same for those who are serving far away too. Bless them all!

While enjoying this Memorial Day with the family, and friends and as we fire up the grills to eat our burgers, and hot dogs, I ask you to please remember why we are celebrating this day. We are celebrating our many freedoms that have been fought for, and that have been won by some brave men and women. Today some cannot be home with their families as they are still serving. There are those who have given the greatest sacrifice by laying down their lives to guarantee us the joy of this day! Please, do remember and honor them All!

Giving thanks to all those who have given their tomorrows so that we all can have ours! For those who are on foreign soil still protecting us, and keeping us free today. . . . Stay safe, and return to enjoy the freedoms that you fight for!

So, today/anytime that you see someone in uniform, or maybe you know of someone serving our country, Please walk up to them and shake their hand, give them a hug, or salute them as well. Tell them Thank You for what you have done for Me, for my Family, for our Friends, and for our Country. Believe Me, they really do enjoy this, and are very happy to receive this from all of us. I have watched it done to our son when he comes home to visit, and the smile with pride he gets on his face for knowing he is doing our country good. 

Have a fun-filled enjoyable Memorial Day everyone. Be Safe, and God's Blessing to All!

Happy Memorial Day Weekend to All of You

 Happy Memorial Day Weekend to All of You!

Wishing all of you a fun-filled safe, and enjoyable Memorial Day Weekend of Celebrations! While enjoying your weekend of celebrations with family, and friends please take a moment to remember those who have fallen, those who are still on foreign grounds, and those who are at home with us as they all fight/have fought for our freedoms of today that we enjoy. 

Blessings to them all, God Bless The Military of America!

Thoughts and Prayers to Those of Oklahoma

Thoughts and Prayers to Those of Oklahoma

I was working on some new posts for this blog when I had other thoughts from recent events of the past few days. After the devastation of what has happened to those in Oklahoma these past few days, I decided instead to have some much needed prayers sent out to all of those who have been effected by the recent tragedies. My heart goes out to all those who were caught within these horrid paths of the tornadoes. All thoughts, and prayers are with you during this time. Prayers are requested for your hearts to be healed as you are putting your lives back together. 

May God Bless you, and help you. Blessings to You in Oklahoma!

Preparing For New Season of Junkin and Thrift Shopping

Preparing For New Season of Junkin and Thrift Shopping

Hi, and Welcome to Thrifty Shop Girl! Glad to have you stopping by. In the area I live in Old Man Winter has been trying to hang onto us here, and drag the winter out longer than should be too. I believe this week it is no longer working. Sunshine days, temperatures rising during the day, temperatures warming more at night, no snow but rain, and so on. Spring is finally showing herself to us. 

With the seasons changing also comes a new season for Junkin, and Thrifting too! There have been some areas where the weather has been great, and some people have been able to start off with the seasonal shopping. I myself am getting antsy, and I envy those who have already been able to get out, and get started with this seasonal change. 

These past couple of years I had slowed down on thrifting, and junking in order to lower my inventory. Also, to change my ways of shopping to what I probably would need. Not what I seen that looks good, is cute, and have to have purchases. Although not all the inventory is gone I have lowered it quite a bit, and of course have made room for more shopping, and to go digging again too! Vintage Collectibles, find items to repurpose, look for items to upcycle, and just find some lovelies that I can reuse too.

I decided this year to stay better organized, and more prepared with things that I should make a list of items that I would like to find, search for, and find. It never fails that every year I always get sidetracked with sales, and come home with loads of things I shouldn't be buying, or you know....that really weren't needed. Come on, you know what I am talking about, right? I figured with a wish list I would at least have more of a goal of what I am wanting, what I need, and it will definitely give me more ideas of what I should be sticking with too. So, tell me, what is on your list for this year?

Thanks so much for sharing your time with Thrifty Shop Girl everyone, and hope to see you all again soon. Take care, and Happy Thriftin and Junkin too!
