Meet Anita Medema - This Groups Moderator

Hello Everyone,
My Name is Anita, I won't tell You my age but Lets Just say I'm Fairly Old (In Numbers That is) In reality I fell Pretty Darn Young... I am retired, and my Husband Passed away awile ago now, so I spend my free time Antiquing and selling My Treasures. I have online stores on Ebay, Bonanzel, and a few others - and spots in two local Antique Malls: Out of the Attic Antiques (Aurora, IL) and 1700 Gallery (Crest Hill, IL). In my antiquing Jurney I have found a Friend in the Unlikliest of Places, My Grandson, Thommy. He Actually Got me involved with this website and I love it. He Goes by the Name THE GEEK STASH COMIC BOOKS and he is also an Antique dealer in Out Of The Attic Antiques (Though his booths are far larger than my own, the energy of youth!). Anyhow, I have four Miniture Dauchshounds (wiener Dogs) - There Names are One, Harley, Coco, and Fritz - and they keep me feeling Young and active... ... So Come on, Join the Group and lets be Young Together!!!!

Well thanks for the invite. Guess U all figured I'm old enough all right. I feel youngest when I get a great buy. But feel older when I sell it. But that is the name of the game. I have 2 dachunds and I love them also. Zena and Peanut. I like asian antiques and Pottery.

   And I am a sucker for a good lamp or clock. Check out my photos. Don't Sell as much as I buy but I only buy what I like. So its all good. Thanks again for the invite. Tom and Jody
