my trash your treasure

Coffee table for sale!

We have spent the last few days sorting through our accumulated life possessions and are TIRED. In the process we think Tim broke his toe on masonite board. It's black (the toe, not the board). Poor guy. Well we're creating quite a collection of yard sale goods in the "storage room" and have listed 115 books for sale on half.com. In less than 24 hours, we have made $90 on something like 8 books total. Only 117 to go! We've also put a "sneak preview" on Craigs List to the more valuable items in the storage room. And by more valuable I mean $8, not 50 cents. So if you're interested in checking out all our worldly goods, if you like to accumulate junk, or if you're not planning on moving anytime soon, check out our new business, making my trash your treasure, by clicking on these two links....

Let me just end by saying that parting with all these books is heart-wrenching. I want so much to hoard them away, because there is something in me that says you are more valuable as a person if you own more books. I'm pretty sure that's not Biblical truth. In fact, I think it counts as idolatry. So off go the books. If you're looking for me over the next week, I'll probably be staring at any empty bookshelf and moping about my worthlessness as a human being and Davidson graduate.

    Hannah! I feel your pain about the books. That's why I have bookshelves full in the house and boxes of books in the garage. Somewhere in my psyche I think I would lose my status as a former English teacher/English major if I didn't own the proper amount and type of books.
