One Man’s Trash Is…

Posted on June 8, 2013 by Ginny O'Donnell

Today there were a skillion garage sales in the neighborhood! And I didn’t even know it until I drove to my hair appointment around 12:30. I hadn’t seen the signs going up on Friday, because I was home all yesterday.

So DARN IT. All the good stuff would be gone by the time I got my hair cut and got home to fetch Bill. You wouldn’t expect Bill to be a good sport about garage sales, but he has a really good eye for “treasures.” In fact, he spotted an old Trimline wall phone, which we purchased for a cool two smackers. It is avocado green. You may see it in the bathroom at the lake house.

Anyway, my point is that all the sales were totally picked-over.

Or were they?

And no, you will not see him in the bathroom at the lake house.

About Ginny O'Donnell

After reading a really nice obituary a few years ago, I considered what they'll write about me. "She worked all day, then went home and made supper." Except now, my husband has retired, so he makes the supper. Hm. I sound kinda lazy, but I'm always busy. You'll see. Part 2: I like my original About Me, so I'm keeping it intact. But now I, too, am footloose. Let's see what happens next, shall we? Part 3: Just to keep everything in perspective, I'm keeping parts 1 and 2 intact. Now, I am actively and happily NOT so footloose, doing my thing over at Cottage Door Press. And with it being off its training wheels, I will pick up my ginnygram pen again. Love!
