put to work

Productive weekend of scrounging: Dishes, pots and pans, a new lamp shade, and kid's clothes and shoes, now headed for the shelter and the resettlement services folks. A little side table we'll use here around the house. Some 200 tubes of hair color, destination as yet unknown. And all sorts of tools--T-squares, wrenches, files, rasps--to be put to work in the empire of scrounge.
