I don't have too much action packed news tonight. We are having a yard sale on Saturday and I've been going thru alot of stuff that I didn't even know I still had. One of those, "Hey, THAT'S where that is!!" moments. Stuff I packed away years ago and forgot I had or I knew I had but didn't know where I put it. I mean, I found a Polaroid camera!!! Oh boy, they don't even make film for Polaroid camera anymore and this company in Denmark took over making Polaroid film under another name and you can buy the Black and White cartridge for $24 for 8 pictures! So just when I think I have an outdated valuable camera on my hands, you can't even buy film for it without losing your house over it. I mean, that is ridiculous, and my Polaroid is useless, but guess what, I'll but a price tag on it and set it out in the yard sale.
A few other things I've come across: A (useless but interesting) business card from my days as a travel agent in 1996......noooo not 2006.....1996!!! That went in the trash. Oh boy.... BUT, I did find a jacket I've been looking for for the past three of four years that I was praying and hoping I didn't give it to the Goodwill where all my other clothes I don't want goes to. I was so happy to find this jacket I got back in.......oh, we are talking back in 1998 or 1999.....anyways, it's a Hilton Las Vegas jacket and I love it. The inside pocket and lining inside is a tad ripped from wear and tear, but I'm going to get it fixed and wear it. It's got three Flamingos on the back and says "Hilton Las Vegas" in the front. It's from the Flamingo casino. That's an oldie but goodie. No, that's not going in the yard sale, I don't care how much they want it for.
Okay, next I found a box of "Pocket Dragons". Do you remember these little guys, I use to collect these back in 1997, I can't part with them, I just can't.......I must have about 10 of them.....here's pictures of my favorite pocket dragons in case you don't know what they are (yes they are cute little statues)......

I have many more, but I can't part with them, so I'll keep them for eternity :) I have always been a long time fan of "Pocket Dragons" and I even have the two books that tells me when each were released and the date the stopped releasing each of them, you know, like in a series. So what AM I going to sell at this yard sale?? I have a treadmill, I have a mountain bicycle, I have a bicycle rack to put on a vehicle, I have a ski rack to put on the top of an SUV, and some other little stuff I want to unload. I'll take plenty of pictures of the yard sale on Saturday, but tomorrow I'm bring up some stuff from my house to add to the yard sale collection. So, my day today wasn't that exciting, but I found some long lost treasures that takes me back to the year Nineteen Ninety Something........ :) Have a great night, I'll bug you tomorrow! :)
