This is a public plea for people to look at
my eBay sales. I had time on my hands yesterday, and these things were already boxed up, so I listed them:
- An aluminum tortilla press that I never got the hang of using (a looker asked me why it was so "inexpensive." I replied that it IS an auction, typically starting low to attract bidders...)
- A vintage Pyrex covered casserole from the 1930s, made for the Russakov Club by Corning Glass Works
- A vintage 1950s set of 3 Pyrex clear glass nested mixing bowls in lovely condition
- A shabby woolen runner in reds and blues that may or may not be a vintage Navajo rug (eBay doesn't let you say what you think it is if you don't have provenance on it).
It's mainly because, even with the contract pay, it will take me ages to pay down the debts I incurred while I was out of work. I don't know how people do it. I don't usually live with debt for very long (I don't count the mortgage). When I had cable I'd watch TV programs on dealing with singles' or couples' debt. I could easily sympathize with the subjects, but couldn't relate---until now. I'm not in dangerous debt, but I'm unhappy about it, since I'm not making enough money to pay it off quickly.
And my lovely tax refund, which I usually get in mid-March, will go right to what's left of the debts!
