Band-Aid Tin, 1800's Steel Eraser, Collectibles


**********************************
Hi all, not a real exciting week so far, Monday was just a regular day around here, go to the post office and ship weekend orders, sort stuff, take photos, add merch to the shops and stuff like that. Tuesday had a doctors appointment (all looks good), visited a friend of Jans in the hospital etc. Actually that covered a good part of the day.
Today was basically the same. Work, work and work some more. Did some SEO work on the shop and sorted some items for Saturdays auction. Oh, I did find a neat piece while digging through a box of goodies from back when. An early steel eraser or ink scraper, that's the fun part of digging I my hoard, but it's getting smaller.

Oh and todays cat is "Raven" the oldest one.
