Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer...

I have conflicting emotions about a vacation I start today. I'm excited to have some time off of work and yet I'm definitely going to miss the many customers - and volunteers - who have become like a second family to me. You make me smile whenever I see you. You've shared triumphs and trails with me. You ask about things I've written on the blog and know I prefer to be called Susan. In the weekly comings and goings you've become a friend and I'm going to miss you.

Now before you think I'm gone for the next month - let me clarify - I'm off the next two weekends and the week in between - that's all, not a big deal. Yet as someone who cries and gets all sentimental over greeting cards and every Hallmark commercial ever made - maybe you can understand.

Speaking of sentimental look at the photo I took after church on Sunday of my son, Jack; daughter, Abby; and one of Abby's best friends and someone I love dearly, Liz. It the first time since the beginning of June we've all been together and though it was for less than a day - we had a wonderful time! Aren't they cute?!


And with that, dear reader (and friend), let me show you some of the "new" items you can find at EmilysBreakfast Furniture today (Friday) from 1 to 8 and tomorrow (Saturday) from 9 to 4!


painted desk with lighted hutch for $65


four metal chairs for $50 and table with black legs for $40


cool table for $35 and each chair is $25


blond five drawer dresser for $85


we received a number of super nice dressers in this week and here's one of them - I'm talking about the lighter wood piece in the center of this photo - it has five drawers and I priced it $85


this large pine dresser with a mirrored hutch is gorgeous and priced $195 and the matching chest of drawers in the photo to the right is $145


can you see the metal headboard and foot board of this full-size bed? It's very fun and priced $95 (mattress and box spring sold separately)


this is a massive and amazing king-size bed and is priced $135 - the only issue with it is there should be four knob-like things at the top of each post and the donor couldn't find one of 'em (she was moving and thought she would come across the fourth one and would drop it off if she did), but for now we only have three


I love the height and style of this dresser which has 12 drawers and is priced $125, the matching nightstand is $45


This is a gorgeous love seat that is priced to sell even with the front leg needing repairs (can you see in the photo to the right where it needs to be re-glued?). Price? $45!


Love, love, love this side table which is priced $75


amazing Chris Madden chair for $85 (needs to be cleaned otherwise in excellent condition)


it would be hard for me to pick a favorite piece this week but if you put my feet to the fire I might have to say this retro china cabinet - I love the clean lines and beadboard behind the open shelf and on the two bottom doors. Priced $125


slipper chair for $45 and matching love seat for $50 (love seat much more worn than the chair)


this is a nice two piece deep purple corduroy sectional except it has some fading and a rip on one seat cushion (and the other side of the same cushion is stained) so priced only $125


cool painted screen priced $65


lovely camel back sofa for $75


sweet antique oak drop front desk for $120


love this chair for $55


here's another nice camel back sofa this one is priced $65 and it does needs to be cleaned


tan - fake leather - swivel, rocker/recliner for $45


amazing retro sofa - unfortunately non-original seat cushions were added (obviously covered in a different material and pattern - not horrible - but definitely off) - priced at $45

cool trunk for $40

For those of you familiar with the store (and those of you who regularly read the blog) you know we moved the metal bookcases last week (which really opened up the place), well this week the wood fencing barricades have mostly been removed - the trench covered - and furniture added to that previously unusable space. The store really looks fabulous!

And with that, I'll sign off until the week of August 9th!

God's grace, blessings, peace, protection and love to each of you!
