When I had to come back to Michigan to help with my Dad, I furnished the place I now close up with stuff people no longer needed. There is really not much I need to take with me as I move back..lol I just have to find a new home for some of it. Maybe it all will be useful to another as it was for me.

lol oh my gosh... I saved a bunch of posters that were sent with computers out of the garbage years ago. I wish I had the rest of em!! They are being sold for $200-$400 EACH!! I am lookin at 2 of em right now.. Amilia Earhart and Jane Goodall, Apple's Think Different Campaign. Who'da thunk that pictures I hung to remind me that women can be different might come in so handy.

My son when he was 4 told a neighbor he wanted to be a garbage man. It was a close neighborhood and the neighbor felt comfortable calling me to tell me she was bothered by that. It seemed a lack of direction to her. I wasn't real bothered.. he was 4, but I asked him why he wanted to be a garbageman... thinking that he wanted to ride a truck. Was surprised when he said, Mom, I noticed the flies all gather around those trucks. Yes, they do. Well, I wondered why it is there are more of them there.
He graduated from college with a chemistry degree and honors.

Isn't that amazing.
When my son was in kindergarten, he said he wanted to be a bus driver. ;D He never was but he still doesn't have a good direction in his life even tho he has several talents.

I doubt they have good stuff around here. I was talking to someone that lives in Memphis tho. She said on Sunday after rummage sales you find all kinds of neat stuff they set out at the curb for garbage pickup!

I would love to go dumpster diving in Memphis, especially the rich areas.
I've always done good around here. You saw that recliner yesterday spydie, we found sitting at the curb. Not a thing wrong with it.
That auction a couple of weeks ago at Mckenize we made $500.00. It was all stuff we had found and items we had bought at yard sales.
