Why, tell me why, there are so many posts like, "My uncle died ... he had this rod, it was never used". Why do people SAVE rods or books, or clothing, or whatever, that were given them, and not used ???!!!! Gifts of the heart should be used ... not saved ... and enjoyed!!! How many more rods need be listed? How many more sweaters, or nightgowns, be sent to Goodwill after someone dies, that have never been used?? USE THEM!! ENJOY THEM!! You just may find out that the rod (etc, etc) that you've got saving for god knows when, may turn out to be a favorite!!!!!!!

OK ... I'll breathe. All done. Thank you. Back to your regular scheduled posts.
