It’s been several years since we last went to the Fantastic Indoor Swapmeet here in town. It was dark and crowded and noisy and I have no reason to think that’s changed over the years!

Sorry for the lack of posts yesterday - I had jury duty and couldn’t get my laptop to connect. I had totally missed the sign in the lobby of the Regional Justice Center that gave information on how to do that, but my mind wasn’t really on it when I walked in!

I would make a joke about this definitely being a Monday, but I just don’t have the energy. My husband’s out of town for work and it’s just me and the kids, so this email forward from my dear friend Alicia (who was born and raised here!) is a welcomed distraction.
