Hi Scroungers! LTNS. I can't believe I've missed posting in June and now July is almost over with, too. Kind of been hard to switch between ebay accounts as I've been mostly on my seller account.
Maybe I should've written a few things down whenever I've peeked in here for a few minutes here and there. I seem to be getting more CRS lately as sometimes I can't remember what I just did 5 min. ago. Anyway, I'll attempt to summarize, but apologies in advance for not remembering some goings on with some of you.
Ahh, just remembered a post by Laurie that I couldn't make sense of, then was glad that she came back and posted about a few posts, incl her response had been removed. I think we have a pink, or should I say Blue, on our side (based on a mod going to the trouble of correcting the date to the correct, current month Kyal's opening post a couple of months ago).
Sun, so glad that you've sold a lot in your booths and have gotten a lot of stuff at auctions.
Yme, not sure whether you're sad or glad to have broken your resolve to not scrounge, but glad that you found something small that should bring a nice ROI. Okay if I post an eBay question to you on the thread sometimes? Not a newbie, but had such a long gap, so it's been/still is a bit of a learning curve for both dh & I. And, of course, I can't think of any question at the moment.
Kyal, congrats on the 2 "doctors" in your family. I love reading about your finds and success with selling them here and elsewhere. You have a good eye, some good luck, and perhaps some divine provenance or something like that. Hope you have great success with the 2 sets of books you recently purchased.
Kay, sounds like you have done similar to Yme with keeping yourself from buying. Going to gs to just look is a good pastime, but would be hard for me.
Patd, there's so much political corruption going on everywhere in the U.S. Not just the big cities, either as our t.v. news sometimes reports scandals in some really small towns. One reason I hate politics.
Pat, hard to believe that your oldest g.s. is driving now. They sure grow up fast.
Justy, it's great that you hosted such a big family dinner; sounded wonderful. We're pretty much in the same boat as what Kay said about the family name probably dying out and not by choice.
M*M, I can understand why you quit the C.G. job. If you were staying, I was going to suggest taking a folding chair and sitting outside when weather permitted. It might have saved you from pulling a muscle like you mentioned, though you'd still have had to get up and down from a sitting position.
I'm glad that you got treatment for your Vertigo. Years ago, in my twenties, when I had it so bad, I had some testing done at the ear specialist's office. In doing one of the tests, it involved an assistant moving my head all around (while I was laying down). It made me very dizzy, but also seemed to have taken care of most of the dizziness. I still get dizzy sometimes, but it's less severe than I had in my twenties.
Shoppers, I hope that you, your dh, and Murphy are doing okay. Please let us know.
