The Horse gets back to basics.

Given that I'm stuck at home a lot these days, I decided to get back to basics. I've been making guitar sound hole coasters again. I mostly give these to musician friends, but I've sold a few pairs for $20/pair. I guess you could say that adds to my MyLot earnings. My overhead for this hobby is quite low: free sound holes from guitar manufacturers. A little stain. A little polyurethane to make them waterproof. Felt bottoms from Hobby Lobby. A borrowed glue gun. I'll probably start a couple of new pairs today before heading off to Guitar Center to teach some lessons. What's on your agenda for this sunny and mild Tuesday?

I guess I’m going to order a couple of guitar sound hole coasters from some guy in California to help him afford his myLot Lamborghini. Just finished lunch, so I’m going to the park for a walk.

Getting ready for our trip. The days are running out; and we have so much to do. Our housekeeper is coming over today to help me pack since I can't do the running around.

Nice to have something to do. And make some money at it.

I'd like having a hobby that makes me money, rather than costing me money.

@LadyDuck I'm taking some garbage out of my house today. But, as I mentioned, I have too many excuses to keep things.

Did you score anything good? If you wind up with any vintage loudspeakers or guitars, let me know.

I just took Pretty to the Post Office and paid the bills for the month... And now I'm back on myLot reading about your fun-filled day. I can't believe how long it's taking to fix your truck.

They are coasters. You put drinks on them and protect your table from rings.
