Check with your doctor, get him to write a new prescription for the compression socks and buy them from a store that carries socks from a company called Sigvaris. They are a little more expensive (around $75/pair) but so worth it. My and my husband’s compression socks from them are “machine wash cold, tumble dry on low”

Antique shops

We eat a lot of that ham. I take them to church and when we have a dinner, they’re great to send home with people who want leftovers.

Good for you! I am inspired, and I like to donate to Salvation Army because they do so
many good things to help the down and out–from providing shelter to job training.

I have two vintage cabbage patch dolls . 1987 Toddler Kid Orange shirt Boy Baby $70.00
and 1985 Patch Kids Girl Original Clothes – $80.00

Love that…awesome giving hearts

Amazing!!! What good ideas 🙂 I will retire soon & even if I don’t move (wish I could get out of the high tax state I’m in)…I don’t really want to deal with the yard sale thing….or even boxing up “stuff” and furniture to go…..would much rather set to it on the curb for “free” or assign donations/ profits to a local charity or church or other.

I am an art and history major and teacher. Your Brother’s letters are NOT “clutter” to let go….they are HISTORY. Keep them. At some point, there will be people begging for people like you to share them for a book or “project” or National History Day competition (which my students have participated in). Some things are sacred—like the voices of our relatives out of the past. Maybe not of significance to your neighbor or many others, b/c they were not affected by it. But, you were, as was our nation at the time. You own a piece of our history. Keep it for future generations.
