More Death Acquired
Young man in big heavy frame
I picked up a new dead person today from the Elkhorn Antique Flea Market. It is probably the biggest gathering of antique sellers in the area when the weather is nice.
I paid more than my current average but less than 1/2 of what a 120-year-old frame in such an excellent condition usually sells for.
(c. 1900 ish) - based on the clothing and the wooden backboard.

Saw the phrase ‘goats in trench coats’ on Twitter yesterday. Now it’s stuck in my head.
Pumpkin Spice Season

When you are too cheap to buy a Pumpkin Spice Latte, a tablespoon of Libby’s pumpkin pie mix in your homemade coffee gets you pretty close with much less sugar and no artificial flavoring.
Ingredients: Pumpkin, water, sugar, salt, spices, dextrose, natural flavors
Just Breathe

Heard this NPR News Story about how daily breath training lowered people’s blood pressure. I’m going to give it a try to see what happens.
At $70, the training device seems a bit expensive, so we shall see if it’s worth it after six weeks. It looks like it sold out on Amazon after the news report yesterday. I’m glad I ordered one right away.
