Cute piece! I suppose there is some irony in here, as I pondered after reading the options that my own life might still be a "keeper" instead of any of these others? 😊
Uh...no! You better stick with what you got, especially with all the well-earned recognition you are receiving now, my friend. Savor every moment of it.
Kenneth Mills, pole dancer. Aesthetic appreciation, always takes a little time, but ... Yes! I can see it, Ken. In the trailer park where I live there is an inordinate number of tri-ped chihuahuas and two blind dachshunds and several geriatric cockapoos. I am trapped here with a bunch of California bleeding hearts. I can definitely snag you one or two.
Come on ,Kate, you wouldn't trade your sweet home Indiana for a million bucks. All that land, all those flowers and cats and one a good man. Besides, where would youput your loom and spinning wheel in a condo?
You are on the mailing list, John. Although, I imagine it would be only a bit of voyeurism on your part. No harm in that. I am sure reading the catalog would only serve to make you even happier with what you have now.
Sounds sublime.... sigh. My tiny home is filled with the scent of pine and the glow of Christmas lights. Ciabatta bread, cheese and cornichons on the lunch table. We are both so fortunate.
Here’s a couple of actual ads from our local Craigslist that seemed like the closest thing to buying a used lifestyle. When I called, I asked if the wench could be purchased separately.
- 2021 Polaris sportsman touring 570, 4x4, power steering, nice passenger seat, wench, storage compartments under front and rear racks. 415 miles. Excellent condition.
No trades.
- Honda Foreman (red) 2013 with 2500 miles. Has a wench.
This idea just cracks me up. I could write a story about a man who, having read the listing actually shows up looking for a Polaris with wench included.
I actually called a guy about an atv with a wench he wanted to sell. I told him I didn’t want the atv, but would he sell the wench separately? He declined my offer.

Yes silly as this piece is, it does have a deeper point, I think. Thank you, Linda.
For me, it's between 1 and 2. Oddly, #6 didn't even make my top five. 😂

Come on! I just need to do the lumberjack thing for like a month. To refuel. 😉
I wouldn't mind doing a lumberjack myself. As long as he was gone in the morning... just saying
😂
Just pondering whether I can make pole- dancer work. ... could I sub in the rescue chihuahuas?

What canine and other contextual riches.
Not to mention there is a "free table" mini flea market in the laundry room. And people who bring me soup. Gotta like that at the end of one's days.
Made in the shade.
6 and 8 sound pretty interesting. MOre cats permitted?

Sign me up for the catalog!

You’re right of course!
I like #1 with the option, and #6 for the new MacBook. I think this is one of your best, Sharron!
Good choice, James Ron! Done! I never figured you for the option in #1, but who wouldn't want a new MacBook?
Ha!! Your ideas come from the same place mine did as a child. I thought I could go to The Dad Store and get a new dad. 😂
The New Dad store! Get in line, kiddo. I am right behind you.
Love this piece
Oh thanks, Carole. No idea where this came from. Just woke up with it rattling around in my head. Some pretty silly stuff in there, apparently.
Missed the condo part. So thanks no. ))
Funny piece, silly girl. I didn't see a life that would make me want to trade mine but I got some laughs!
Very clever, Sharron.
You bet! Let's just make the most of what we have! Never know where we could have ended up.
Absolutely delightful and timely Sharron!
Thank you for your amazing words and insight! Can’t imagine how you come up with all!🤣
Thanks, Deb. Even the silly stuff needs to have a point. I believe I will stick with the life I have!
Super imaginative!
Thanks, FandF! Happy day to you out there wherever you are!
Nearly the end of the day in France. The fire is lit, the wine has been drunk, kedgeree for supper. All is good.
Sounds sublime.... sigh. My tiny home is filled with the scent of pine and the glow of Christmas lights. Ciabatta bread, cheese and cornichons on the lunch table. We are both so fortunate.
Love cornichons (anything pickled really) ... baguettes and cheese are our lifeblood! Your space sounds blissful.
#6 with wine instead of scotch and a few cat housemates sounds good to me.
Heck, Janice, you are half way there!
8 is the best deal!! No wait... I need the case of scotch, trade fuzzy slippers.
Beat me to it, dang 😡
Cheers :) 🥃🥃
😂 U2 Alexander
Actually, Big Al, by request, will add a case of scotch to ANY life trade. A little known fact.
😅 Need that Uisce beatha!
Slàinte Mhath, Alex! Ah you make me homesick for a land that is not even my home...
Brilliant. I fancy being a pole dancer, to save me having to go to the gym.
I can definitely visualize this, Terry. Brilliant choice.
😂😂😂
I tried to buy a lifestyle on eBay, but I couldn’t afford a new one and they didn’t have any that were used in my size and preferred color.
Keep searching -- the life of your dreams is out there!
I’m not dead yet, so there is still hope.
Here you go, Mr S. I believe this lady could help you find ANYTHING on eBay.

Wench? ha ha ha but... do they mean to say wrench or winch? Or do these vehicles usually come with wenches?
Only the higher end models, or it could be that we have a noun problem in Idaho.
This idea just cracks me up. I could write a story about a man who, having read the listing actually shows up looking for a Polaris with wench included.
I actually called a guy about an atv with a wench he wanted to sell. I told him I didn’t want the atv, but would he sell the wench separately? He declined my offer.
If you do, I will totally read it. 50 words? Maybe I’ll try it too.
