RANDOM ESTATE SALE AND SQUIRREL MENACE.

1st squirrel. so, 2 squirrels removed and only one left. looked outside today. POOF a 2nd squirrel. and one smooshed one in the street. was it coming here? did somebody tell them?

estate sale. WAWAtosa. always promising. ooh, intresting old houses! old old old! sale house a HUGE duplex. well, a easy clue was the small jewelry box. this will not be promising. everything pre-70's or much much older. but bad. 'tradional 60's. romance paperbacks on book shelves(not built ins). that's bad. 1st things, gotta do basement. not much. everything uneven and sloping down. interesting that. ok. i am desperate. old drawer? but a srew front? or what? take, good for filing at least. go around to the emptyish other side. hmmm, interesting tredle sewing machine drawers attatched to ceiling. ooh, look inside! sockets. give up. go to attic. 3rd floor. who needs stairmaster? ooh, this ain't gonna be fun getting it all out.
back to first floor. vainly vainly looking. hmm. old bowl in kitchen. ebay? maybe. nothing else. crappy stuff. i guess the family kept the good stuff.
spend $1.50 on drawer and bowl.
drawer has lock.part of a desk? very very interesting contrucktion. no dove tails, slotting, so very sturdy.i think i could use that. maybe even at an art fair. we shall see.
