One day I offered him a few dollars for his stash and he accepted. When I told him how much was actually in the jar, he couldn't believe it. All these years later, he still throws money into jars but turns them in himself. Lesson learned.<br />I buried a St. Christopher, if my memory serves, in the garden. Someone told me that our house would sell. (He had to be buried head down, as well...) It took three years but it finally sold. I always wonder if anyone will ever find that St. Christopher. <br />DebbieUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11719499030188672096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-48012439753947191662017-09-09T22:27:21.494+01:002017-09-09T22:27:21.494+01:00Myself, I put it in a container.

He never misses it and I just treat it as a contribution to housekeeping. I haven't checked the car that he has full use of and am now dreading I what I might find. Oh the pleasure and pain of having a 20-something son back at home after graduating. He has a good job but does not earn enough to rent in London.

Also, I just forget to clean out my pockets. And then, once the cool weather comes back, I can make a happy discovery. The only is fun, but I also like reading the receipts I find in there. I try to see if I remember what I was doing on a date six months past, what it was that I purchased. <br /><br />Right. I work hard to keep myself amused.
