MARGIE BARGER aka: "Decorator Extrordinaire"

It is with great pleasure that I devote an entire post to my dear friend, Margie Scroggins Barger. Let me tell you... this girl is something special. I have known Margie for about 4 years now I guess and consider her one of my dearest friends. Let's see... where to begin....I tracked her down when she moved to town after marrying Greenwood's own, Alan Barger. I quickly found out that she went to Ole Miss and graduated in Speech Pathology. We needed some help in the County Schools and she fit the mold. We worked together for 3 years in the Leflore County School District as Speech Therapists and she was amazing. Sadly I say, (and/or maybe with a touch of jealously), she "retired" this year to venture in the new direction of retail here locally in Greenwood at The Melon Patch. She was and still is in my opinion an amazing speech therapist. One of the best I have seen and certainly more creative and energetic than myself. But Margie is very special in many other ways. She is amazing at whatever she puts her mind to. She is so talented in so many ways and when you see what she has done to my new house you will think....this girl is IT. Well, I think so at least. I will mention that she is a decade, yes, a decade my junior. Which is all the more amazing in my opinion. How can someone so young be so dang good at design and forsight??? Can you say(as Eddie Murphey's uncle did on his stand up movie RAW)... "That gurl got talent!!! I forsee big things ahead for my dear Margie. She is an amazing artist, fashionista, decorator and above all friend. Here's to you Margie!!! Thank you for all you have done for me and my family. We've laughed and cried together and lord knows you have been on this crazy real estate roller coaster ride with me for I guess 3 years just about. I am going to attempt to put pics of our house in some sort of slide show formation so readers can get an idea of some before and after shots. We still have a few more details to work on with the house but the time has come to POST. Hope I can get it together soon. Margie YOU ROCK!!! I LOVE YOU. Thanks for the memories and I know there are many more to be made.
