Thrifty Thursday (Aug. 2nd, 2012) Super deals on clothing, furniture and even a thriftykitty or two

Hello my thrift seekers~

I've come across some super steals so hang on to your seats (and some extra dollars)!



Rene Shea Fashion
751 St. Helens Ave, Tacoma,
253.507.9349


From dressy to casual and all in between, I discovered that Rene Shea has just what we need to spiff up our wardrobes on a dime.

White cotton summer dress: Perfect for a little yacht party, deck brunch, pin-up style goodness

This short sleeved zip hoodie is only $11 and in my size. You better scoop it up before I do!

Rene Shea Fashion also has handbags, shoes and jewelery. I am totally digging this one!








Posh Home
2502 6th Avenue, Tacoma, 253.593.5001

It's always sad to see one of our local businesses close.We've seen many flourish and open, move, and many go to the way side. Posh Home just announced they are closing their Tacoma location. They will be missed. The only positive to this story is you can save moola with their closing sale! The flier below was an announcement made last week, but they are still offering killer deals on home furnishings.

Okay so this isn't exactly "shopping" nor is it supporting a local business. It is however, supporting some furry friends who need a home and a local non-profit (two birds, one stone). Besides it's an affordable and socially responsible way to find your "forever friend." GO!

Announced today by the Humane Society:

"We are over-run with cats right now, and we don’t want cost to be a barrier to finding them homes. So we’re trying a new special: “Cats are Priceless – name your own adoption fee!” Any cat six months or older can go home for a donation of any amount. We’re hoping to attract adopters who need an extra incentive to take home a new friend. Know anyone like that? Pass it on!"


Just think of all the sweet felines looking for some love.

That's all for today friends. Get yourself some new threads, revamp the homefront and add a family member to the home.

XOXO,

Lady Jacqueline

What's in a name? Who are the Jossy's and where did they come from?

I decided to research my Jossy Patriarchal line as far back as I could. I made it all the way back to the 1300s and along the way I learned some things. For one thing my last name has evolved over time. My father spelled his last name Jossy but a few generations back they spelled it Jossi. Go back a few more and it becomes von Jossa. This journey took me from Washington State to Oregon to Switzerland and eventually Germany. I also learned that the "von" represents nobility.  I also noticed that they repeated the same first names a lot. There were a lot of Peter's for example. Peter is a very old name. The people of ancient Greece used it and its said to mean "rock." Of course Peter was also one of the disciples of Jesus which is probably where most people know it from but Peter the disciple was nick-named that by Jesus. He was born with the name Simon and I found that name in my Patriarchal line too.  Simon is also an ancient name. It means " hearkening or

All that Jasz

While following my Patriarchal line, I noticed that my last name evolved over time - the last change I can't yet find but I found some hints. As I explained in my last blog seemed that around 1100 AD we may have been named after a river. Or the river may have been named after us. All I know is that we were both there with the name Jossa around that time. I can't trace the name beyond that point. They were obviously wealthy because they built castles and had "von" in front of the name which indicated Lordship.  I read also that German last names can mean their original occupation but it can also indicate the place where they are from. Several times while reading about the von Jossa's, they also called them "von Jasza" and this confused me.  I also learned that they used to name rivers after their Gods. Was the Jossa river named after an old Pagan God? Probably not. I see no evidence of this. Then I ran across a old map of Europe that had a place named Jas

Elon Musk isn't the only one interested in the underground

I've always been fascinated with tunnels. As a young girl I went spelunking on a school field trip through several caves in the Ozark Mountains. I couldn't tell you where exactly but I vividly remember one cave that we had to go down through a small opening down into a huge cavern where we camped inside for the night. It was as big as a football field. Another cave we had to wade through red clay almost knee deep. As an adult I visited Montana and we went into a small narrow cave just tall enough to walk upright and narrow enough to be able to touch both sides of the cave with my hands. Probably to the annoyance of my companions, I couldn't help but to sing as we walked because the sound was so amazing in there. Cave resonance I learned recently is a real thing and can be very powerful at healing and accessing our third eye spirituality. If you study religion at all, you know that many mystics and spiritual leaders received inspiration and messages from beyond while spendin
