RANDOM WW1 POST
should have posted this earlier. i got to the part where floyd is wounded. went across field with soldiers covered with german machine guns. the guy he knows goes down, he follows. gets shot thru the arm, hit in the shoulder/back, and then the face, losing his eye, but he doesn't know that. krauts still shooting, so he has to lie low til dark. then he and the other guy make a long voyage to get treated. floyd is pretty much taking mental notes the hole time and even reports his hallucintion after getting drugs to put him under. right now he is recounting being in a wounded soldier ward. mornings its bandage cart and getting dressings changed. the sufferers hae their ways of dealing, but while they moan, the others laugh gleefully. and boy, they take their injuries in stride. only have a few chapters left. too much glory. but still fine writing.

RANDOM ESTATE SALE POST
2 today. late for today's, so missed all the coral and shells and such. dude was a major rare shell dealer i guess, listing mentioned stuffed birds, but missed them too. icky 50's ranch. very mod basement with much shell 'daycore'. but, got old poker set. $$$. at least pay for my $3 bag. keep the green glass vase. quite unusual. narrow and tall. more retirement in that piece.
so next one not open yet! OH NOES. but good cause about 5 minutes before open people came out of the bushes it seemed. i needed to sign in and was waiting there. little late 20's bungalowish. very nice stained glass windows. oy, much stuff inside. much stuff i don't have any interest in. BOOKS. older books. some to try to ebay. will keep the 1800's french revolution book. try reading it eventually. so much to read! forgot my camera. luckily the interior did not really match the outside. but would have loved to post pics from 1st basement.
how much did that lady pay for that icky vinyl doll???
