So I skipped a week. It was THANKSGIVING!! I sincerely hope y’all enjoyed your holiday as much as I did. We had friends and family from near and far come to gather, and I wish I could do this at least once a week. As long as the kids do the dishes, anyway.
Anyway, today is Thursday, and it is time for another Never Listâ„¢. Sometimes my lists don’t make any sense. Ok, most of the time. And this one is no different. But still, fun to do. Today finds me appreciating my accidental collection of vintage stuff. Some items have a history, and others do not. But all of them have a purpose, which makes them indispensable.
Things You Should Never Throw Away
#5– Tupperware
Seriously, it lasts forever, and it’s very low maintenance. I have yet to stop using pieces I acquired back in 1985.
#4– Mason jars
There is no end to their uses. I started buying old ones because the blue matched my kitchen way back when I first got married. Imagine my shock at the prices for vintage mason jars today. And to think, they hold my thread spools and coffee. Not together though.
#3– Costume jewelry
Because everything old becomes new and more expensive all over again.
#2– Vinyl records
I think we have three moving boxes worth of records, from 78s to 45s and everything in between. And I still listen to them.
#1– Photographs
They always tell a story, even those whose voices have been lost. I even keep the ones I find in old frames I buy from the thrift store. I can’t bear to part with them, even if I have no idea who they are.
So here is your list of nevers for this week. With the possible exception of the turntable which is implied, y’all will notice no technological gizmos made my list. Why? Because they are evul đŸ˜‰
