<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm a little behind in reading my email, but re
the fire victims: We have a floor lamp (1980's) and a pink
wicker headboard from the 1970's that could be attached to a single bed
frame for a child at low cost (it was mine as a child--is pale pink and
could be repainted any color-- both items free to thier home because my
girls already have headboards their dad made). The floor lamp is also
about 20 years old--traditional brass styling with shade (was a gift to my
husband from his parents and works fine--we just don't need it but haven't
gotten rid of it). If they still need a full sized bed, we have
a double brass bed frame from the early 1980's that we could LOAN as well
but no matresses. The bed is not laquered brass so it would need
some serious polishing but gives a nice country style look to a bedroom and
would work with the floor lamp (swirly design not modern
contemporary). It has sentimental value so I would like it back eventually
but no big rush--I have been storing it for years (saving it for one
of the girls). </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I am also cleaning out my kitchen cabinets
right now (and working on the whole house for spring), and probably have
some extra kitchen stuff I can spare although unfortutunately I just gave
away a bunch of stuff a month ago. I also have a daughter who is
outgrowing her size 4 clothes and size 10-11 1/2 shoes (even though she is 8 she
is extremely small for her age). I probably also have some extra
used towels and extra double or queen bed sheets (who knows what
else I have if I start looking). I have two small vaccuum
cleaners that are usable but not fabulous that I also can give away to
the fire victims (one is more of a floor sweeper). I have two
small child's rocking chairs in the garage that have never been
refinished although they have the base coat on them (although they may be too
small for their kids). I don't remember the adult sizes but I'm
sure we can spare some plus sized used adult clothing if it is needed,
which they could then donate to charity once they can replace their clothing
with newer stuff. In other words, I'm getting ready to do a
big garage sale this spring but would be willing to GIVE some of the stuff
away now to the fire victims. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> We live in Flower Mound in the Canton of
Glaslyn although we usually go to Steppes events. I know we have not been
very active lately in the SCA (too many kids activities on the weekends, etc.)
but if there is any way that we can help the fire victims, please let us
know. We have a nice, fairly good sized home with a lot of stuff in
it that we are not using (because I'm a huge pack rat) and I would love to
give some of our good quality extra gently used household
items to an SCA family in need. Please email me off list to
discuss. </FONT></DIV>
