Karen’s Opinion

Everyday is Random

I think my husband and I have watched more movies this winter than any I can remember. The latest movie was Town with Ben Affleck. If you can get past the foul language, this was a good movie. It was intense. My daughter said that she didn’t care for this movie but strangely enough, I did.

I was watching the home improvement channel on television and was amused by a family that loved everything from the 1970′s. They had vinyl covered chairs, plastic vases and real shag carpet. They even had my favorite kitchen wall clock.

We received a wall clock just like this one as a wedding gift. I kick myself for giving it away. We used it for a few years but I guess I decided it didn’t fit with our decor. It had goofy rolling eyes, and a wagging tail. I would love to have another wall clock just like it.

There are many things I wish I had kept.

My husband and I love the show, American Pickers. I cry everytime they get excited over something that I used to have but threw out or gave to Goodwill. Who knew it would be valuable? I threw out bags of little McDonald’s toys my kids saved. You know, the little raisin guys and Bart Simpson toys.

Those little guys are selling for $8 each online.

Is there anything you have given away that you wish you still had?

I’ve given way loads of stuff that would be worth a fortune. My Dad threw away loads of early Superman comics from his childhood!

As a kid I used to love/idolize toys of my super-heroes! I wish I had them now, also my Nintendo videogames which was the envy of the whole park back then.

I know its amazing the things you throw away over the years and how much value they are now.

I must have thrown away quite a bit in the past. I hate being a ‘magpie’ and hoarding things haha
