D - Gems for Sale!




If you drop by our house today, you will likely see a sad-looking, dejected little boy sitting in the driveway trying his best to peddle his "gems." As you may recall, his love of gems stems from his great love of Webkins where you have the opportunity to go into the caves once a day and try to find a treasure. He has found a way to bring this love into real life now by breaking open rocks with a hammer to check out their centers.

Today he decided that there is a market for these great treasures so he made himself a sign and set up a booth at the end of the driveway. Unfortunately, we live on a cul-de-sac and we don't get much traffic, so he's not getting any action. He's not too happy with me that I won't go put up a sign at the neighborhood entrance directing all the buyers to our house. I guess we just have to hope some really kind-hearted neighbor will stop by on their way home from work!
