A Floppy Valentine

Some of you might remember that by the end of the 1980s, the 5¼-inch disks had been superseded by the 3½-inch disks for computers. By the mid-1990s, the 5¼-inch drives had virtually disappeared, as the 3½-inch disk became the predominant floppy disk. The advantages of the 3½-inch disk were its smaller size and its plastic case, which provided better protection from dirt and other environmental risks.

Out Junkin!

On Saturday, my husband and I went to two flea markets and some garage sales. It was a beautiful day, although a little cool for Florida. I love to go to a housing plan, in this case a trailer park, where most of the people participate. We just parked the car and walked and walked. My husband had to go to the car once to drop off our finds so we could continue shopping. That's a good thing right? Here are a few of the items I purchased.

You ask, is that a bed pan?

Simple LOVE Sign


Many of you have been posting wonderful Valentine's Day ideas. I am not doing too much this year since I will be out of town during that time. I have some decorations from last year, but wanted something new. While cleaning in the garage, I came across these old rulers and this board. Just maybe?

What to do with a Swiffer container?

I don't use the Swiffer too often, it is more my husband's idea. I tend to use one were I can wash the pad instead of tossing it away. I guess if he wants to clean the floors, then I should be grateful and I am.

Now he has used these in the past to hold some of his things in the garage.
