Hard day. Lost two important auctions. Boy, people have money in this country.


Went to the bank an got a hundred out. To go to Goodwill.

It's good therapy when you buy a lot of unnecessary things.

I bought a fish. A rainbow trout with a bunch of hooks and some history.

But even they have become expensive. Any stupid thing is 2.99.

The 50% colors never match my taste.

But it was ole fart day, so I got a 20% discount.


I bought an electronic piggy bank. Very useful for lazy people.

A portable cloth rack, for the garage sale I'll never do.

Another cooler/warmer. A sawing(sp) machine, so shiny I couldn't resist it.

A wood roller for bread I'm thinking of doing. Since 1969.

A flat hose. For the garage. I have no more faucets available.

A surge protector, to protect the other three surge protectors.

Four LED lamps. And three lanterns. Like I don't have a hundred.


One portait frame for my Father carved in wood with an elephant around it.

Another with rhinestones for Elvis with Nixon. He's part of my family.


And the piece of resistance, a Pioneer 150W center speaker, to put on top of my Sansui center speaker.


Grand total, 68.19. I donated the .81 cents to make it 69 even. My age.


I still have 31 bucks burning my pocket. Too little to go clubbing, too much for BK steak house.

Maybe I'll order Chinese.


Ah, on my way home, I found a secretary chair. In excellent condition. More stuff for the garage sale. I have three chairs.

And a beautiful phone table. Solid wood with an wicker ornament on the top part.

Both at the best price. FREE!!!.


All in a day's work.

I have four auctions pending tomorrow. If I win one, I'll be happy. If I win the four, I'm in trouble.


Life is what you make it.


Good luck.


Cheers.
