In the years I have been missing... I have been keeping myself busy since I couldnt find no one!
Ever go to those auctions where the police have confiscated items from drug dealers? Well, a couple of years ago my little put-put car was having some problems, and they were having one of those auctions a few counties away... we decided to go..
There sat a nice Bonneville SSE with leather, nice stereo, I had my heart set... a police officer came up to us and told us about the car, that it had been a dealers car, it was not the guys first bust, he also told us about the other cars going up for sale that day... I got the car I wanted, paid 3 thousand for it, blue book on it was seven thousand so I got a good deal... That was Saturday...
The following Monday I decided to give the car a good cleaning... inside and out.. while reaching under the seat, my fingers felt plastic... and I pulled it out... was a bag of marijuana, kid you not... I showed my husband the bag and said "Hey, I know how we can pay for the car!!" LOL we did wind up doing the right thing, the police came and took that bag away and had the drug dog sniff for anything else "left behind"... the car was given the all clear.. and I continued to clean... under another seat, I found a round object, it was a ring, cute little thing... I thought it was made of tin, it was marked on the inside "PLAT" and I thought it meant "plated" but as it turns out, it is an antique platunim wedding ring.. worth about 200.00 due to age and design on the ring, it has X's and O's on all sides except the inside...
I know there is yet another treasure in that car, inside the center console, it is a chain, but it is hooked onto the carpet and I cant get a good enough hold to get it out...
I also found a "new friend" who demanded a lot of my time, he and I had used the metal detector a few times together, found some interesting stuff... but the demands on me got to be too much and I had to leave that friendship... seems this friend has an "abusive" personality and wanted to control me... I couldnt deal with that... sometimes, he stalks me.. but he will get over it...
Charlie... the cane? Uhhh I am guilty, I had put that on the back burner as well... so it is not done yet... I should pull out those beads and add to the 38 thousand that is on there...
