    Talking Look at the Treasure I Found...

    I found this beauty at the trash dump, of all places. It was placed lovingly to the side of the furniture dump. I think the owner was hoping someone would give it a new home. There absolutely nothing wrong with it. A good cleaning with Murphy's, a polish, oil on the casters........wah lah. I ran in the house telling DH " Come look at what I found" LOL. After 32 years he never knows quite what to expect. As we looked at in the house, all I could think about was what stories this piece could tell us. Smile....as you see I am thrilled.

    This must have just made your day! I think that God works these things out just for the joy of surprising us. Who would leave such a nice chair as this at the dump? That's crazy! God loves you, that's all there is to it. That chair was meant to be yours.
