Found that I did not plan reorganising my bookshelves well. The room is now a complete mess.  :hahaha:

Don't know where all those books come from. I created two shelves more of space, and still, all that was cluttered and stacked in my bookcases, does not fit in the way I want it to.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

A bench grinder for $1.  It had a wheel on it and shook a lot so the guy bought a new one,  I just put another wheel on it and it was fine

A broken Dyson for $25 on Craigslist. Needs a switch I believe. :Icequeen:  :autism:

Going to get it tonight.

It's a purple animal. :woohoo:

Almost didn't bring it home, it wouldn't power on (that I knew) looked like hell...and the guy lost the switch cover and said he checked out all the switches (something he didn't mention before).

But looked at the shiny Lexus in the garage, the neighbors shiny Mercedes, and figured what the hell.

Had it in the door 3 seconds after the ride home, hit the reset, checked the switch, and it came right on. Needs a good cleaning before it touches my carpet though.

Damn what a neighborhood. $$$$$

I should probably take a ride through there on trash day. :autism:

Wow, don't you just love neighbors who throw stuff like that away? that's cool, I think you should cruise through there more often paying special attention to the trash.  :2thumbsup:

I'm thinking about Mozambique.

Heh, trashing has brought me quite a lot of pretty sweet stuff.

Best finds ever being a solid silver jerusalem cross dating back from the 1600s. In a fucking skip of all places that I had stopped by on my way back from seeing my doctor, along with a load of scrap silver, a chain for the cross, which is a big chunky heavy thing, with quite a weight to it in silver. looks fucking fantastic when worn with my full length black leather trench, combat boots and camo pants.

There was also a gold rolex in there. Fake I believe, but the gold itself is quite real, as response to acid testing, as I believe, will be the (albeit small) ring of precious stones thereon.

And some very old postage stamps. Some loose, others on letters, which I tore off, leaving a small bit of letter envelope as backing to avoid tearing the stamps. Full set, bar only one, of cigarette cards featuring classic cars.
Beyond the pale. Way, way beyond the pale.

  I found this lovely refined website that's all about cleaning and de-hoarding.  :zoinks:
