Motherload?
Did you ever Day Dream of finding a box of money? No name, no holds to it, but money you could use free and clear? Geez, I even have Dreams of finding money....coins, silver you name it. Silly yes. But I still dream it.
You hear stories all the time of people finding money in the strangest places. I heard once where a man found money in books. His wife had passed and he found the money accidentally while he was packing up the books to donate them. I heard once where a man bought an upright piano and after having it for several years looked inside to have it tuned and found $200,000. (I have an upright and looked in mine after that......but no money) I hear all the time where people will start remodeling or repairing an older home only to find money or treasures inside the walls and such. Which brings me to this post.
Recently we have been doing a project in this old house. It needs so much but money is certainly in the way as we have none. So we do what we can when we can do it. This time we were tearing into the walls sort of and of course my mind wandered away from what we were doing for a short minute. What if...I mean WHAT IF, in these old walls there was a treasure? Coins, money? anything I could use to put back into the house and maybe get me some heat installed? Anything! I started seeing stars...........or dollar signs.
And as luck would have it, after tearing out some cabinets, and into a double layered drywall I did find something.....................
God does have a funny sense of humor......
Hmmm, I wonder where the other half is????
