Even in our most desperate of times during our financial struggles while owning the apartments, we never had to sell off any of our meager belongings. Now, I guess it's the thing to do. Since I'll be moving to a new blog address in a few days, I'd like to embark on this on-line odyssey. Here are some of the valuables that I have to offer:
A potted plant that was very attractive when we received it as a gift three years ago. I just recently put it outside to liven up the patio.
A bubble wand without the bubbles.
I have no idea what this screen-like device is or where it came from, but I'm sure it could prove useful to someone.
A fire pit that we bought five years ago. We used it at two events on the property, and someone got burned each time.
A sword that was hand-made (bet you couldn't tell) by one of the boys. Don't worry, he won't notice when it's gone because we have a dozen of them laying around.
An old play tool bench with a broken cover and missing parts.
A prized seashell collection that has been given back to the earth.
An sturdy paper weight.

A children's metal chair that we bought in 1989. Tetanus shot required.
A fresh stalk of broccoli from our garden. Even the kids will love it---raw, of course!
Let the bidding begin!
