Found another ring.
Larger, but not as pretty. Hard rubber O ring, with numbers - mostly illegible.
Wicked and bitter winds all day, of the just around freezing rather than the brutal sub-zero, off the ocean sort. This wind has it's own special misery. I wore the new, soft, purple scarf when we went out, on the spur of the moment - give it a whirl. Was I glad to have it, wrapping it up over my ears, my ball-cap brim sticking out.
Wish I could take the whole next week off, but just the two days will help. Especially since there are conferences in March, and the schedule at work thins out to a trickle some days. Can't use all my pto on vacation right before a slow stretch.

I'd be happy with two weeks off just to get a handle on the excessive volume of stuff in my house. Even if I tried to deal with everything on a full-time plus over-time basis, I'm not certain I'd finish in two weeks.
I'm tempted to call 800gotJunk and just have them take it all away.
The wife and kids wouldn't be too pleased about that.
Phil,
My sympathies. D is pretty much on the same page in terms of reducing Stuff. We have a pile for the neighborhood cleanup in the spring. The casual recyclers and pickers reduce the Stuff from the curb, and the city comes by to take away whatever remains.
I posted just now about how Pippi Longstocking calls herself a Thing Finder. Seems you are too, at least just recently.
I like that O ring--reminds me of a space ship somehow... and the pretty little ring from before too.
I'm not going to speculate too much about the O ring! The other rings are interesting. What a lot has been happing outside your house.
