I figured I would be absent from blog world until this task was finished, but I’ve found a restaurant with free wireless. Plus I’ve realized that there are just too many stories developing throughout my get-rid-of-junk adventure!
I never dreamed that I would sort through the belongings of my childhood, adolescence, and “90210” years and find monkeys...because I became a monkey friend much later in life. (Of course, I didn't remember many of the things I came across – which consistently begged, “Why on earth did I keep this!!!”)
So EXHIBIT #1: MY VERY FIRST SOCK MONKEY (we shall call her Johnella)
My great aunt made this monkey for me when I was a wee lass. And if I am remembering correctly, my grandmother and I made the dress that Johnella is wearing. And if you’re wondering…she went into the “keep” pile. (Sorry, Mr. PoMonkey!)
Stay tuned for more monkey discoveries!

I'm truly, truly...touched. I think ... I might cry (sniff).
Maybe with some of the money you made selling stuff, you could buy Johnella a new dress. That thing is ugly.
