OVER YOUR HEAD 1/21/05

This is yesterday's blog, and the one below or is it above is today's, something is out of order once again go figure... anyway....
Remember the time you raised your hand? Whether it was to answer a teacher’s question, or to volunteer for a charity that ran you out of time, you just couldn’t hold back. Many a time the raising of a hand got you into more trouble than you thought possible.

Recently in our small town -small operation, a Thrift Shop run by our local church thought that it would be a good idea to expand. Think of all the good we could do if we had a better larger location all on one floor, lighted and with the donated “stuff” nicely displayed.

So on we went with a new and improved shop. It was a GRAND OPENING. The community really got on the bandwagon for the proceeds had been going right back into the community’s needs. However, the donation of all kinds of “stuff” have just kept coming and coming. It’s just been amazing, maybe knee jerk reaction to the destruction on the Gulf coast. The new large storage room is so overloaded that you can’t get to anything. It busting at the seams, we are over our heads in “STUFF”. The town has gone nuts is a very nice way.

In my humble opinion, many of the platitudes should go to the young lady -- co-chair -- and her very young husband. Sometimes the Big Gus says thanks in strange ways. Course, sometimes he makes you slip and fall to alert you that the husband is not perfect
