**********************************
Lets see today is Wednesday, not sure what happened to Tuesday. Guess I was here because some railroad booklets etc. were listed on the shop.
Sometimes for a few days after the auction things get jumbled.
Ah, I know what happened it was a auction weekend followed by a holiday Monday, Columbus Day. So Tuesday I went to the bank and post office which I would normally do on a Monday. Went to my storage unit to rearrange and reload the van on Monday which I normally would have done on Tuesday. Confused yet?
Had to head for the clinic this morning for blood work, then we hit the food store for some goodies, ice cream and other important stuff. Came back took some photos and started write some descriptions for the shop.
Oh hey, here's a photo of the new additions to the cat herd. Kitten & Minnie.
Read an article in the New York Times the other day about eBay working on cutting back on the auctions and pushing for more fixed priced selling. Interesting.
