One Man's Trash is Another Man's Treasure...
Today was trash day.
You know… the day everyone in the neighborhood
takes their trash out to the curb to be picked up
and put into the garbage truck to be taken to the dump.
I know that there are some that are frequent
‘garbage pickers’, ‘trash examiners’, ‘independent recyclers’ maybe.
My husband is usually one of those.
Now he doesn’t jump into garbage cans
and dig through to see what he can find,
but he does take a steady glance
to see if there is anything of interest to him.
As a matter of fact, a few weeks ago
he found a dvd player in the trash.
He brought it home and it worked just fine.
Well, maybe his ‘trashy’ ways are rubbing off on me
but I just couldn’t pass up what I saw hanging out in the trash today.
So Ally and I brought it home and, I have to say, it works just fine.
We look forward to getting much use out of it.

First a DVD player and now this exerciser? Wow! I'm coming to treasure hunt in your neighborhood. I tend to do the long glances, too...you never know what you'll find! I'm surprised I haven't run into a telephone pole yet...I love to drive by yard sales and rubber neck.

Wonder why people would throw things like that out!?! Good grief, if someone doesn't want it, they should sell it or give it to Good Will, but I guess, their lose is your gain!!!!! Happy Hunting!
