I saved the best for last. I just got news I'd been praying for. CLEAN SWEEP IS ON AGAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 2023. It couldn't be held in 2024 or 2025 because of renovations in the building in which it's held. It's a giant yard sale at UMaine of all the stuff--clothes, appliances, school supplies, electronics etc--students leave in the dorms. Imagine an ice hockey arena filled with quality merch. A lot of good stuff is diverted from landfills. The money goes to good causes like the campus food pantry. Stuff not sold is given to organizations that can use it like towels and bedding to the Humane Society. And for me volunteering for it is better than a magic kingdom vacation for other people. I get to do something I love doing with people I really like, especially my best friend, Lisa Morin. One of the for sure highlights of my year. The picture is of three fine cats I acquired in 2023. What am I hoping to find this year? Cat shirts, anything cat 🐈 😻 🐈⬛️ related, cool writing materials, a working watch, books, drag clothes with pizzazz and sequins galore, stuff my family would like, and--I bet you guessed this--SQUISHMALLOWS!!
