I'm posting this with a heavy heart...😔

As much as I love trumpets, they take up too much of my time and money, and I am struggling to keep up with the everyday basics such as cleaning and maintaining my home. So, something has to give. I will be getting rid of my collection.

Below is a list of what's available. Serious inquiries only please.

Thanks for reading and understanding...

1. Dustpan and brush

2. Sponges

3. Dusters

4. Mop and bucket

5. Window cleaner

6. Vacuum

7. Dishwashing liquid

8. Laundry detergent

9. Fabric softener

10. Laundry baskets

11. Toilet brush

12. Cleaning sprays

13. Scrubbing brushes

😉😉😉

Brad

You forgot to say “seldom used. Some in their original condition.”

True, and “nice smokey sound that really lights up when pushed.”

I'll take the toilet brush, as I mostly play crap... so it will come in handy!

I admit, I stole that from a site for knife collectors, just changed “knife” to “trumpet”😎

Nice work Brad. We need that sort of comic relief every once in awhile. You had me going too.

I came here and got my whole day lit up! The trouble is it may reveal why my apartment is such a pig sty.

Hi Brad,

I have no idea what those items are or their uses

The best decision I made years ago was to get in a cleaner once a week while I go on safari - M/P safari....

My wife already doesn't understand my trumpet and music clutter.
She'll hit the roof if I get rid of the items listed. That's her stuff.

Do you have any of those super thin little scrub brushes for cleaning metal straws?

It's a clever and cute thought, but I began reading it with a poignancy, having just gotten out of a bad episode in the hospital that left me understanding how overwhelming some routine chores can be. Just a thought.
