How to Get Rid of Hard to Toss Items
2023 Night at the Library
Pikes Peak Library District is having a fund-raising event on October 21.

Drain Snake
I had a very slow drain in my bathroom sink. We had the plumber here for something else, and he quote $200 to snake the drain. Jack found something similar to this plastic snake in his plumbing supplies, and ten minutes of fiddling the clog was gone.
Neck Wrap
I received this microwavable therapeutic neck wrap for Christmas. It works quite well, and the design keeps it from slipping around.
Sanitizer Recall
We received a notice from our grocery store that the hand sanitizer that I bought several weeks ago had been recalled since it might contain methanol. Methanol is not a safe ingredient in a product that is applied to the skin.
Masks in the Monday Mail
One set of masks came from California and the other set came from Alaska. Both were made by members of our family: one set by my sister, and the other set by Jack’s sister. We had to make a few adjustments to make them fit, and are very grateful to add them to our collection.
