I'm out of business, how about you? [View all]

The group shop closed last week for an undetermined amount of time and my usual haunts for finding stuff are also closed. No garage sales. No auctions. This morning I woke up at 5 a.m. as I usually do on a Saturday when nicer weather arrives. The first garage sales should have happened by now. There will be no church bazaars this spring. No rummage sales. It's not so much the money as the fun I have doing it. Sorry to whine - I know, overall, I'm lucky because I'm healthy so far. Guess that's all we can hope for.
