Accumulating for a trip to the thrift stores

We are "lucky"... In our town we have four thrift stores: Goodwill, Salvation Army, Disabled Vets and Habitat for Humanity. I have been setting aside things and will be doing a drop off soon.

 My husband's favorite is Habitat for Humanity... It specializes in tools, recycled building supplies, used furniture and the like. Bob keeps an eye out for "stuff" for his projects and drops off similar stuff!! I found a vintage Singer sewing machine and a vintage Anker machine there... both with tables and VERY cheap!! 

But a drop off still is awhile away...

Bob ordered some of those "better" masks..N95 (?) Not sure how long is will take Amazon ...no definite arrival date was given. Now he's ordered another set...total of 100 !  20 will go to our teacher/daughter... BTW... one day later and the price for the second set had jumped $10.00.

All the decorations are down and put away... except for our little tree. The ornaments have been put away but the tree waits for Bob to climb up into the attic... still plugged in and the timer on!

Those 95 masks are good but they are really hard to breathe in.

I just ordered some Honeywell N95s that a friend said was very easy to breathe in. I hope so.
