There used to be an Amvets drop-box by the local Mexican restaurant, but when we swung by there over the weekend it was gone. So when we dropped Joe&#8217;s daughter off on Sunday, we went a little out of our way before getting back on the expressway to a spot where we used to drop off clothing, but that one was gone too. What is going on? Do they not want donations anymore? I really want to get rid of these clothes but I see no sense in throwing them away when someone could use them, esp. since some of them are brand new, given to me as gifts, that I will never wear. :p<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I ran out of the body lotion I&#8217;ve been using, so I found some old Bath &#038; Body Works lotion in the Cotton Blossom scent when I was packing up my toiletries.
