!!!KAT!!!


The FC guy who took Hardi's bike offered an item I had JUST decided I HAD to have: double bed sheets. We picked them up Friday night and I went through the whole lot as soon as I got up yesterday AM. It turned out to include blankets, table linens, and some other stuff-- 4 HUGE bags in total. It took a mere hour to go through it all to grab the all-cotton items, and 3 of those bags went to the thrift shop the same night I culled them (the bags were in the house less than 24 hours). The culls are pretty, matched sets with a low poly count-- someone will LOVE them, I am sure.


The 1 smallish bagful I kept are exactly the colors and fabrics I wanted, are in great condition, have been washed to get the years worth of fabric softener perfume and feel out of them, and have already been sent upstairs to their intended beds. The matching pillow cases that I probably didn't "need"-- can NOT believe I have really accumulated "enough" of THAT desperately-wanted category (all beds have 9-12 pillows)-- will replace a few Sallie cases that are not all-cotton, or are about to shred, etc., which will be torn up for rags.

Cottonnnnnnn.....
