Not much too exciting going on around here. Today was day one of backdating at work. Didn't have much to do. I sorta wasted part of the afternoon following the nascar race that got rained out yesterday. Wish I'd known about it last night, I would have gladly taped the race instead of DooL, lol. My favorite driver, Dale Earnhardt Jr. was doing really well, but then blew his engine just after half way, glad I didn't have him on my fantasy team this week. Not really sure why I didn't trade for him, I think I was just too out of it Saturday night at midnight when I was going through my drivers, lol.
Tonight I came home, and did some cleaning, straightening, tossing, organizing, etc. My second bedroom is, well to put it nicely, a disaster area, lol. It's much better now though. I hung two shot glass cases, and filled both. Tomorrow I will run to the hardware store to get 4 more screws and anchors so I can hang the other two cases I have. Now what I need is a case for all the tall shotglasses I have. Five of the six cases I have only have spaces for small shot glasses. Will have to keep an eye on that. Once I have these two cases hung, I can eventually start to catalog all my shot glasses. I had a list at one point, but it got so outdated so quickly, lol.
I have a stereo from the 70's I would guess. It has an 8 track tape deck, a turntable, a cassette deck, and a radio, and two detached speakers. It was manufactured by Montgomery Ward. It was my roommates, and when she passed away her mom let me keep it. Well, eventually I got a table top 5 cd stereo with a turntable, and two cassette decks, so I put the old MW stereo, where else? The second bedroom. I called my aunt (actually my friend's aunt) to see if she thought my friend's mom would mind or ever notice if I just tossed this old MW stereo. She didn't think so, but she remembered she has a friend who collects old stereos. So she is going to call him and next time I go out to her house, I will take it with so he can pick it up there.
I also have a storage bin filled with collectible teddy bears that my roommate's mom wanted her nephew to have. Most of the collection is already at her house being stored in the basement. But somehow this one bin stayed with me and I just never took it there. So Saturday when I head out to my aunt's I'll take not only the stereo but the bin too, get both out of here.
I got four loads of laundry done tonight, and started on one bathroom. About the only thing I didn't do tonight was eat. Have to go fix something small to get me through the night, lol. Oh yeah, almost forgot, there was one other thing I am getting for my birthday. My aunt got me a year's subscription to a Civil War magazine, I'll get one every other month! I thought that was a really neat idea for her to do that!

If you find a case for the taller shot glasses and it's available online, let me know....I need one myself.
ReplyDeleteI found these online

I tried posting a comment this morning, but my cable wouldn't stay connected long enough for it to go thru. :(
ReplyDeleteI checked out those cases...they look really nice but too pricey for me and my budget. I'll show the pic to Terri and maybe he can build me one sometime. He built a shadowbox type thing for a few of my grandmother's smaller pitchers I inherited. Sometime I'll send you a pic to show you.
Marty has several of those taller Hard Rock Cafe glasses like in that pic. One is even from Toronto. :)
