Well, Kevy and I as most of you may or may not know have a small business selling girls and ladies hair accessories as well as cook books.
About 6 weeks ago we were directed by a friend/advisor to enquire into government surplus auctions... Well, not being one to kick opportunity in the teeth I checked everything out and after being generally convinced that this wasn't a scam of some sort we went about filling out the plethora of applications.
Now, that being all done and over without a hitch we took the plunge and bid on several lots at our first auction. Of the ten we chose to go after we managed to actually get two.... thinking in retrospect, I am totaly grateful to the powers that be that we didnt win them all....
Of the two lots we won, onw was to contain 290 pieces of clothing and the second just a bit more than 100....
What we got absolutely amazed me.... We have a pile of jackets, coats, parkas, extreem cold weather wear, all weather wear, wool shirts and pants, shirts, coveralls, and dozens of other things too mumerous to remember...
After retiring from teaching we have been concentrating on making this little venture succede so as to supliment our income.... Kevy is a full time student and as such I want him to limit his work so not to inteerfere with his study time.
We both are so excited about this....
Hope I didn't bore you too much.
Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...
