I got in some work on a quilt this morning, but spent the evening sorting 
out stuff I found at a moving sale this morning. Just as glad I went - I 
think I found enough gold scrap in the "bit box" of random jewelry and
craft  
supplies to pay for everything I picked up.

It's a thought.  Might as well line your own pockets instead of theirs.

Oh well. It was a thought.  I passed one to my doctor's office on Tuesday.  
You should have seen the eyes light up.

Make sure he behaves himself.

Good find, and not a horrible loss.  If you have to lose gold, that's the 
kind to lose.  I picked up some random bits - mostly earring backs and some 
fine busted chain, in a sale this morning.  Nothing worth any real money.

BTW - keep an eye peeled for a small flat rate Priority box.
