Hope you sell all that you want to sell, John! If I were closer, I'd certainly stop by. Understand the simplifying thing too.

So sorry you're going through this, Jon. Maybe I can help you out and plan my drive through during that weekend... 'xcuse my ignorance, is a cuisanart a food processor? How does it have a blending attachment? What color and how much? In your collection of tools, do you have a vise? Please do post some pictures and start thinking about your prices... Too bad about the ebay problem, you could make some money on some of those items.

Good luck there on the sale.

What a ton of stuff. We too have stuff in our crawl space that we will never reclaim, that Ed will not get rid of, for instance, hundreds of photos of his late wife's honeymoon with her first husband "because it's a bygone Europe." Whoever gets our house after we are gone will have to go through it.
