I actually get excited when I see Karen has dropped a new video. Since I don't have the ability to thrift myself, I feel I'm going on a treasure hunt via Lavender Clothesline ❤... with the addition of watching Roger, and they're seemingly new love, it brings me a happy and hopeful spot on these days... now to see what happening!

Speaking of clothes, I did a “karen” the other day at goodwill. I was looking through a ton of clothes and instead of looking at everything I just started touching the clothes and felt a shirt that felt like something. I picked it up, had no idea what the brand was. I looked it up and it was an Anthropologie brand. Very nice blouse.

I know you’ve been doing this a long time but I adore you and want to share some very helpful tips that work for me and also protect your neck and back. Get a backpack purse or fanny pack. Your purse dangles and could hit/ break something and wearing it like that will hurt your shoulders, back and neck. You can use a headlamp if you need a light and still film with iphone. They make small ones now perfect for women, my hubby loves his head lamp. If we know we are shopping for breakables we save regular size shoe boxes and line the back of our SUV with them so we can set each breakable in its box and they don’t roll around. Then we stack all the boxes back up and put away until we need them again. You don’t need the lid so they just fit inside each other. Just tid bits I’ve picked up through the years!
