About sister, her and her youngest boy make big bucks in the antique/elate business I don’t know if she’d do anything else now. BTW; If I have time tomorrow, I’ll tell you about my ancient outdoor Christmas decorations that bring BIG bucks now days. Sister has 8 plastic reindeer worth over $1K!?!?!
Don’t make me sue you for loss of obscene profits or something like that. Dude look closely at those pictures. WE ARE TALKING BIG BUCKS here that you are letting slip through your fingers. Dang ,man that looks ummmm ummm good.

Tedtam to request a blessing from an Orthodox priest all you have to do is cup your right hand on top of your left hand and bow slightly.
