{Discovery Green Flea Market}

Halfway through my shift at work I remembered that the Discovery Green Flea Market was.. today!
Luckily it was only 7 miles away from my work so.. why not go?
Travis and I did go a couple of months ago but it started to rain very heavily while we were walking around.
He hates shopping too so no point in dragging him along.
So I went all by myself and scored a pair of 1940's slippers on sale for $20.
The lady who sold them to me looked familiar and I realized that I met her before at the Houston Vintage Expo.
There was an adoption tent with dogs and cats and I met a lady with an Irish Wolfhound PUPPY.
The dog next to me isn't even full grown.. and I am 5"10".

{Flea market}

Literally too.
I got bit 11 times this morning and then decided to head out to the store.
Luckily they had "Natural Defense" which is an all-natural flea killer/repellent.
I dusted Loki, Lily and Wednesday with it.
Alice is barely 8 weeks old and the powder isn't supposed to be used on kittens under 12 weeks of age.
She'll just get a bath.

After the pet store I visited the flea market and scored!
A vintage Morse sewing machine that weighs 1,000,000 lbs, a vintage leather suitcase and an ashtray for Hans; it's from Las Vegas where we got married!
The sewing machine needs a needle and foot pedal and then it'll be is sewing shape.
