Otherwise, I remember when we used to think that picking up pop bottles for the 2 cent deposit was making big money.

Mart, sometime you should photograph the inside of your house for all to see. It has to be full of fascinating items.

that would mean i would have to dust,, so dont get in a hurry !!  actually not too many here,, some in storage but most just ordinary things !!   i have no room for too many items !!  this house was built by hubby`s family back in the fifties and hasn`t changed a lot !! only about 1500 sq. feet !! and not arranged well at that !!

Ha! Don't worry about the dusting. :D

I had forgotten that alot of your stuff is in storage.
