Hiya BetterMost friends!!!!






Happy Labor Day weekend!

:)

I've had a good weekend so far.  Was able to shut down on time on Friday night, spent Saturday relaxing, went shopping for new bowling equipment on Sunday, and relaxing today.  I also took Tuesday off work for an extra day, and have a follow-up appointment with a doctor.

Tuesday night bowling starts again, it will be good to see everyone.

I'm glad you enjoyed staycation, but that was not the right way to finish it up! Hope you're back in the pink.

I've been so busy with settling my friend M's estate who died on July 16. Actually I feel like I'm just starting although I've been at it for six weeks! The art from his home is being auctioned now at

and the furniture, household goods and Toby jugs are at

(Their misspelling of Concorde, not mine)
I'm working with bankers a lot, which makes me think of you. Good to hear your weather's fine. Here, we've had 60 days of ozone warnings!

Hi Lee!  Did the auction go well??

Front-Ranger:
It was more than my wildest imaginings, friend. People were willing to pay more than I would have ever asked for stuff that I would have trouble giving away and probably Goodwill would not take. Added to that, the buyers have to come to pick their items up during a short window of time and do their own packing and transporting. Even though some of the heavy large furniture fetched less than $100 I'm still ahead because I would have had to pay junk haulers to pick it up and dispose of it, not counting adding to the footprint of stuff in landfills. I'm really happy with the results; it was worth paying 45% to the liquidators.
