Fear

There's a novel that captured me. Is it the author's humour that displayed itself in previous works? Is it the fascinating story? Or is it so immature that it makes me feel younger? I don't know. It sure does make life fun while you read it. So here's my song, written shortly after re-reading "John Dies at the End" by David Wong. The book not only inspired the lyrics, but also the simple use of the E minor chord.

In honor of their anniversary


It's Kay and Bob's anniversary! Congratulations you two!!!

It just so happens that I ran across a recipe "From the kitchen of Kay" today. I'm hoping they are having dinner that's a little more romantic, though.

Sign up, folks.

Please, please sign up as a follower so that I know you've seen the site. Updates will happen weekly, hopefully. Items not claimed will be taken care of in the best way I see fit.

If there is something in particular you are looking for, let me know and I'll do my best. I have to warn you, though. I do not know what is what downstairs. Thus the pictures and the auction.

We've discovered many wedding and bridesmaids dresses upstairs. Merry Christmas, ladies!!! You get them back (after I try each one on and pretend)! Once again, I'm not really sure who's is who's, so you may get your sisters. Merry Christmas! I just gave you a Christmas present to give your sister! Yay!!!

With each auction, I will also scan in a recipe from Grandma's recipe box. Hopefully, it will be the one you remember making that one time.

Finally, there is also a lot of pictures. I'm already going through "stuff", and I don't know who the pics are of. Will anyone please, please, PLEASE volunteer to take the pictures?

Okay. So add yourself as a follower now. And volunteer for picture gathering. And get ready to make one of grandma's recipes. And find a place to store your wedding dress. And find me a job. Thanks!

Welcome!!!

So, it's time for me to work on the house. I need to do some work in the basement, which is now absolutely impossible to walk through. The collection of my stuff, grandma and grandpa's stuff, friends' stuff, and stuff that I have no idea where it could have come from has formed itself into ever-growing piles of, well, stuff.

Since I'm currently unemployed but trying not to be a loser, I've decided to go through this. So how am I going to do it?

I've heard several suggestions of just taking the stuff to an appraiser and selling it. However, I don't want to throw away or get rid of anything that you may want. I have the time to do this, so I may as well get it done properly.

If there is anything that you would like, please let me know. Items will be given away on a first come, first serve basis. If there is something that you may not want but you think would make a great gift for a friend, let me know. Family has first priority, but things should be given to where they will be appreciated.

I will look into shipping options. I do not mind finding boxes and packaging material to ship, but I can't afford to pay for shipping. I will look into opening a shipping account. We may have to go C.O.D., if that is even available. I may have to go get a job with UPS. Actually, that isn't a bad idea.

This is a work in progress, so any ways you think will make it easier, please let me know.

Are you someone who just happened upon this sight but aren't related to the rest of us? That's okay. If you see something you like, then email me. Arrangements can be made.

Okay, I think that's it. So here's the first batch, so delightfully labeled "Crap!". That's not a description of the items, but the word people mutter as they struggle to make their way through the basement.


Oh! I have one more favor. Please sign in to this first post using the comment section, so that I know everyone is accounted for. Please don't make me hunt you down!

Simply click on the picture above to view the first batch of items.

Click on the small email icon to send me an email of items you'd like, or questions about items you may have. If you'd rather call me, then do so. I won't post my cell phone number here because I've purposely made this post public, but it is the same as Grandma's. 314-481-xxxx. I'd think most of you can fill in the blanks, or know someone who can.
