Voyeur for "V" :Cyber Garage Sale


I wuz tempted to do "Voyeur" fer Mute Monday's "V". I wuz gonna show ya mah stuff. Uh-huh...give y'all a peek--into mah closet, drawers, hidey-holes.

It ain't that I got so much in mah stocking. It ain't that I haunt the malls lookin' fer bargains that wind up smushed in the back of the closets, tags still danglin'.

Naw. It's jes' that I never throws out what needs to go--that icky geeky Christmas sweater from 1981 an the lime green Bollos that look like Hobbit shoes. The fifteenth set of bookends--I got some shaped like big bows--no kiddidn'! WE have Uncle's great-granmama's button can. Ole dawg collars fer dawgs long gone but sorely missed.

Mah junk done outworn its welcome an' I is finally ready to PURGE. Out it must go! The new year cometh. The old junk goeth.

What about you? Got junk? Funky weird stuff thar's no need to let the moths grow fat on?

I'se wonderin' iffin' y'all wanna have a cyber garage sale next week, Tuesday-Wednesday? Post on yore blog descriptions and /or photos of yore grossest, silliest, weirdest ole stuff, an' let's see who gits the award fer worst junk item!

C'mon! ADMIT yore pack-rattiness, face it wif' courage! Think of the new space youse gonna make!

It can be clothes, mementos, old tools, furniture, Aunt Winnie's fan collection, whatever---heck somebody might even wanna paypal ya fer a piece of yore junk.

Invite yore blog neighbors an' friends.

(mangy dawgs and shrewish wives not legitmate junk fare.)

Belle,
You'se got yerself some fine ideas. I am a bit ashamed to admit but when I was a crawling up onto a chair in mah closet to look for gloves and hats for the Christmas dash; I saw crammed back into the corner my mother in laws set of electric curlers. The Nonafish has been gone from this Earth for 16years come January.

Thing is Mermaid and her friends were fond of doing the dress up-make-up hair silliness things for a spell and we kept them ol rollers around for these occasions. Course Mermaid ain't been near them in probably a dozen years herself. I am just wondering how they managed to land in MY closet?

Sad thing is they are still up there! I don't rightly know why I didn't fetch 'em down while I was up on that chair but I was focused on "the dash" so left 'em be.

Course, I am still having trouble getting the pictures from my camera to my computer (there is some glitch I can't figure out) but iffen I get this squared away I can give everybody a good laugh. I might even locate an old pin or two Boxer might want to add to her velvety project! And I mebbe can take a picture of that giant press Blowfish has in the garage that K9 might covet a plenty!

Pam said...

Oh what a brilliant idea. Will see if I can get some pics together and participate. But I really really need to do the proper garage sale this year sometime.

Meems said...

Aunty, you are too funny. Timely, too. Hubby was out in the garage this morning going through some boxes he brought home from his office several months ago. I've been after him about them ever since. Of course he couldn't go through them without involving me in the process since he's not sure what to do with "stuff he doesn't need anymore"... certificates, photos, trophies... blah, blah.

Your idea is a good one. I am not so much the pack rat ... so I thought ... until now that I can't get another item into closets that used to hold all my children's belongings. How is it that I filled those up so quickly when they moved out?

My problem is I spend too much time outside and not enough on the inside anymore. Still... I am aiming to get every closet cleaned out this year. We are keeping only what "need". Hmmmm... we'll see how that goes.

SophieMae said...

Yup, it's that time of year again. The purge flu is making its way 'round the country. Just now, I'm sittin' on the one tiny little corner of my bed that isn't covered with... uh... stuff. Thank God for Freecycle and Craigslist! 8-}

Have a JESUS-filled day! ^i^

Jenny said...

I am so IN.

I've been cleaning/cleaning/cleaning and DO NOT like what I've been finding!

And to Fishy... YES! on the pins.

Name the day Aunty and I'll start gathering.

Happy New Year - xoxox.

moi said...

Great idea. Count me in! And Happy, Happy New Year to you, Uncle, and Aunty and Uncle's Dawg, too, who I forgot to wish Merry Christmas!

Aunty Belle said...

Hoo-whee! What we's gonna find in all our junk piles? Heh...Show and Tell on Tuesday-Wednesday , 6-7th of JAn --oh NO!!2009?

Happy New Year one an' all!

Anonymous said...

Just stopping by to wish you and Uncle a happy and healthy New Year. Hope it's wonderful and that all your dearest wishes come true.

R.Powers said...

Too funny!
I will be looking through the mountains of junk for just the right item.

Got those dog collars too ... sigh.

HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEARS!

sparringK9 said...

happy new year aunty!

sparringK9 said...

fishy! a press? a letter press???!!!???!!

whoa ho ho!

fishy said...

K9,
A whopper of a press! The former students of Blowfish (in his professor days) printed hand illustrated posters with hand set type. They also could carve blocks to create images or their own alphabets. Ummmm....it is still illegal to print your own money.

Happy New Year Aunty!

Big Shamu said...

I'm not sure I'm ready to reveal my inner most junk to the bloggy world. I'm scared.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aunty Belle said...

Ok!!

Let's round up our stuff...Sophie, I didn't know Craig's was fer junk? An' I doan know nuthin' about Freecycle--will have to investigate.

Happy New Year to one an' all!

h said...

I'm good about throwing out useless junk. Maybe too good. But I'll try to locate something and take a picture of it.

fishy said...

Aunty, if you have no objections I would like to tell your blogging participants bout a few things I hold dear so they can keep a lookyout for them during they's great purges of 2009. Fishy collects antique horse toys , tea tins in architectural forms, anything fleur-d-lis , non-asian blue and white transferware china, and silver pill boxes old or new!
Anything I can keep an eye out for you sides things for that coppery new kitchen?
