Among other things, it\u2019s National Old Stuff Day, which is interesting given that for the past few years I\u2019ve been selling things on Craigslist that we no longer use. Much of it is \u201cold\u201d in that these things have been gathering cobwebs in our house but not \u201cold\u201d in years\u2014unless you count the electronics, which seem to age exponentially. We also have truly old things, such as mementos from my parents, tchotchkes and such from their childhoods. Some of it I can\u2019t bear to throw away because it seems so disrespectful, even though my parents would be the first to say, \u201cWhat the heck are you hanging on to that old trash for?\u201d My nieces and nephews aren\u2019t into that sort of thing, and without blood children of my own, there\u2019s no one to pass some of these \u201ctreasures\u201d on to. But as my nieces and nephews get married, I\u2019ve given them each something from their grandparents or great-grandparents or great-great-grandparents that I acquired along the way. I\u2019ve given the kids the choice of things they might like to have, so I don\u2019t count that as saddling them with junk they don\u2019t want.<\/p>\n

A couple of interesting found items on my walk today include what appeared to be a hair piece, chucked to the curb and a rock placed on top of another rock in the woods where I typically walk. I\u2019ve never noticed it before, so it\u2019ll be interesting to see whether the balancing act grows over time (that is, whether someone is placing stones here). Maybe I\u2019ll add to it and see whether someone else does. I like this mosaic on a huge planter at a nearby street corner, done by a local artist. Also, still feeling wistful about days when we could all mingle with fellow office mates and get out of the house for the day.<\/p>\n
