It's a better day

[adinva]

Yeah, peaceful navel gazing. As an overachiever I feel like that's a disorder but when you put it that way it sounds cozy and ok.

I've been selling bunches of stuff on Craigslist. I spent all day primping a bunch of nice designer teen boy clothes and the snooty resale shop rejected them all because they are out of date. How would I know? Anyway, into the yard sale with them.

I've been thinking about signing up as a dog walker or weed puller to get some extra income that doesn't interfere with getting a regular job soon. Low commitment. Not much flair with interior design, I'd probably be the one whose piece ends up on Antiques Roadshow with the dealers shaking their heads and saying, if only it hadn't been refinished you'd be millionaires....tsk tsk. I do have a lot of furniture but I'm attached to it. Much of it was built by my mom's grandfather and we have a bed that probably predates the Civil War... I'm sentimental about stuff. H didn't take a stick of furniture when he left, but we probably only own three things that we acquired jointly and the rest I inherited anyway.

I came THIS close to buying a cupcake truck that's for sale. If it fit in my garage. There must be something I can invest my business in rather than closing it down, but I haven't hit on it yet. My dad told me a story of a woman who bought a gravel pit and did quite well. No gravel pits around here. Keeping my eyes open though, trying to think outside the box.
