DIG OUT THE BASEMENT

Almost lost the little pup today. I would really have been in the dog house (literally) if that had happened. Wait! I could sell them!! They are probably worth a lot.

I have become a yard sale junkie. Spent the last 10 days creating a store in my mother's garage and now I can't get enough.

I am knee deep - no thigh deep, in stuff. Digging out the trash and trivia from 30 years married to The Ostrich. Do I really need the lobster pot? Can't afford to buy a lobster, so I guess that will go.



I've had some insight into what people will buy now that I have conducted her yard sale. I wish I had some of her stuff.....





For fifty years I have been the queen of trash, second hand clothes, yard sales, etc. So I should have some knowledge. A lot of what I am digging out I actually bought at other people's sales. My friend Mary came for coffee this morning and was very excited to buy my old stuff. I'd like to buy hers!

I am actually enjoying pulling out my old stuff with the prospect that someone will buy it. Anyway you can get it.

Yesterday I was waiting for a plane and they offered a free ticket plus the cash value of your ticket that day if someone would give up their seat. I flew to the counter, only to be beaten by someone else who needed the cash. I think from now on I will look for flights that are totally sold out - and hope for the worst.
