Busy profitable day yesterday....

We wanted to get our Van apartment looking good for renting to potential academics while Jim is teaching in the Fall so we went looking for a proper desk.  Jim found one on Craigslist that included a chair, a number of great looking black mesh accessories, and a floor lamp....all for $70!  We managed to arrange to have it moved in yesterday as well...$40.  The fellow is a pilot and moving to Hong Kong to take up a job with Cathay Pacific so getting rid of everything.  Also, makes us realize we would have got almost nothing for the things we wanted to sell if we had moved out of here.


Also,  looks like we have a family wanting to rent the Victoria house for 3-4 months while they look to buy a house.   The husband is taking up a new job in Victoria.
