This is not crazytown

Don’t buy retail, estate sales of the wealthy is like free range home guds, thrift store, bass bros, and craft store mecca. The same customers rotate through as welcomed friends by the estate sale hosts. I began going to the beachside water front homes, but then realized there is real value to upcycling, reducing landfill waste, and treasuring another’s treasure. People die in Florida after living amazing lives, retiring from prestige, excellence, and then bringing their lives to their final chapters. They bring their stuff also. I like to rescue plants that people have tended with care and then took an unscheduled departure. When crafting, I keep a list of things needed for my list of projects, and then check the estate sale dot net to scan for useful items. Today, i met a regular and learned that their estate sales upcycle game is very lucrative. My heart hurts though because his wife is in ICU in Orlando and he’s been having to drive back and forth while working full time and doing this estate sale side hustle. I hope she’s ok and returns to help him. That’s just one example of how Melbourne connects random strangers into your thoughts and prayers. It may happen like that everywhere, but we have palm trees.
