                                    Sad....
So I pulled this from the rafters of my neighbors house. I was shocked by the sad state of affairs this once awesome table was in. But it can come back. I am sure of it, I hope. First I have to get past the decades of dust and I probably have junta virus. Just kidding. I needed to bring down and kind of dust off. Then I needed fresh air. Today I want to research its origins. So fingers crossed :)

Random

Random Sunday..... Waiting on coffee, waiting on toast, waiting for the day to begin. Yesterday had a good day. Picked up my friend Alexis to go down to a organized communal yard sale event in Bakersfield. Picked up: metal rusty table $7, pair of new Tom's free, retro box with vintage blue chip stamps etc $5, Griswold square pan $10, 2 window sill vintage planters $6, vintage garden tools $2, 1930's feed sack $1. Great haul- three things already sold.

 not bad :)

A Cog with a Blog

So today i am a Cog. Something in the workings of a task. Chris G had his med out patient appointments today. We went to eat and then a nursery. Just went from task to task. A Cog. Perhaps or perhaps not. Tomorrow i have a ritual of tasks as well as then maybe a day of rest, not!
I will be ordering my new shed for our pop up shopping. It is something to move on and be excited. So done with many others choices or confines. I will expound more on the details in the next few days.
Back to my cogly life :p

Hang mama from the Beam Scale

The list of lists and one item is the Beam Scale. Beam Scale a counterweight apparatus developed by the Romans that helps with small goods. Great I listed it, sold it, went to deliver three times and then nothing.Person goes home from work early, never returns and no communication outside of, can I get a discount this morning. NO and thank you very much for flakin on me and thank you very much for communicating and guess what that insurance office you work for? I will never switch since I can not even get you to follow through on a simple matter.
I realize I am venting, but perhaps this is the place I can occasionally. Other item to note, I am the admin and I can BAN you!!! I think I have covered it!

Vintage morning...

So we are on Friday and I am behind. I was behind on Monday, caught up on Tuesday and was stable Wednesday and here I am thinking what am I going to do next. So I have Saturday and Sunday to catch up. Make a list and get going on it. 
This week was a bust and outside a visit from Bill and bringing the lockers, I have been stuck at home trying to get through the physical hullabaloo of menopause. Hate that I can only go only a couple of hours before having to run home and get rounded again. I am putting it politely really.
Update my FPTP listings and get going on my day. Ugh.....

Just hanging out, making a list, checking it twice...

The list of doom. No not really. There is this list I have and really it is an entire portfolio that has lists of things for each room, outside, each person, animals, etc.... it is a series of lists in which I can slowing cross out completed tasks.Although exhilarating at times, it is also daunting. So yesterday I got to mark off another item on my list: Rear fence. $1000 later, comfort in knowing that section is brand new.
So it is a lists of lists and then this weekend we went ahead and cleaned out the gardening shed.
$50 in items so far in the shed that do not even make sense for us to have. But also our trips to the dump have become profitable. Two ladders $40 and one door $30. Who would have thunk it? So is everything seen as a dollar amount? Absolutely! When your biz is about reclaim, salvage, recycle, repurpose, re everything.
So the list of lists and lists moves forward as I take another day into account.

You can't hide...

Neither a buck nor anything else. I can't watch the news, this is an election year and watching some of the candidates is just a spectacle. What am i saying? They are all a big annoying spectacle. So all you want to do is be in your work and ignore the fact that there is all this ridiculousness, BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM IT!

So as today ends and tomorrow comes on with hopes that it was not real and those headlines were in the dark corners of my dreams, we wait for Thursday to come on us. Because that means then it is Friday and I am going to go off hill for inventory. So I am going to ignore Super Tuesday, Caucasus this and that and pay attention to my numbers and inventory. Of coarse my family, friends and my animal family.

So that was a declaration... lets see if it can be achieved.
