1939 World's Fair Thermometer, Other Collectibles


**********************************

Well the living room floor is done. Got all the big furniture back in except we decided to rearrange the room which involved moving cable wires, phone wires and all the wires, cables etc that go with a computer, scanner, printer, electronic scale, lights etc. Tomorrow I'll start putting my advertising tins, penguins collection etc. back and guess it's time to put some of my vintage Halloween stuff out too. Also have to find a place for all the stuff that was piled up here and there, decided not to load up the room with stock etc anymore. This should be fun. Oh yeah gotta move around and rehang picture etc.
