Dumpster Diving
About 3 weeks ago someone had put an ottoman out in the alley for the trash collectors to get. I thought about getting it. It was kinda dirty but otherwise seemed good. Before I could decide someone else took it. I bought one Saturday at a yard sale that would not even have to be cleaned. I only gave $5.00 for it. I think I have become a "dumpster diver"! I got that one wicker chair out of the trash. It makes a good outside chair and looks pretty setting in the yard. We could even set a plant on it or plant flowers around it.. Gail found a table with a pretty tiled top. She uses it in the yard when she cooks out. I love finding things!! Treva said Wednesday night is the best time to go. The trash runs early Thursday. It utterly amazes me the things that people just throw away. I saw an old window frame next door but someone took it too before I could get it. I had printed some things off the computer showing how to decorate and use old frames. I should see another one soon. That is the 2nd one at the same place. I will just have to be quick. Maybe this Wednesday night I need to take a walk, if the heat wave ceases. It was 79 when I got up at 5:30 this morning. I just can't take this heat.
