| Cleaning house and Loose change

Incredibly over the past 7 hours of being on the end of a vacumn cleaner and a wet cloth, I've managed to ferret out about $13.00 of money from under couches, between cushions, pockets, under desks and every other place that was investigated.
Today is a public holiday in this neck of the woods, Not much point in going anywhere and it's drizzly rain, a good day to just get into it for a change, drinking beer, and taking stock. Cleaning up the show.
i'm pretty amazed that there was any spare cash to be found in this household, well at least when it comes to my wallet, there is no loose change to be had, tho I do occassionally store a few bucks for the kids to buy lunch at school one day a week. I'm asuming that this lot has been lost by husband and re-found by 'moi' to contribute to the lack lustre coffers.
Still, things are getting better, for one, the house is a lot cleaner than it was this morning. And a major financial downer is about to be completely out of the way in another few weeks. Counting down the weeks. And once again the budget is juggled around to clear out other debts. This time next year, sticking to it, I expect things to be better. A bit a a time, chipping away at it. Working on that 5 yr plan.
Watched a movie last night about the moon landings, way back. I remember watching Neil Armstrong on the black n white TV all those years ago, just old enought to appreciate the feat.
In the years that have passed, the conspiracy theorists have questioned the act, and we ourselves have asked the same things. So we sat there last night and asked ourselves " how come there hasn't been any telescopes focused on the moon to prove the fact for once and for all
Low and behold, should the very same Q come up this avo, while I focused the Vacumn cleaner on some wayward Daddy Long Leggs, and there it was on Trip J radio , Dr. Karl is there to answer all questions.
Apparantly, there's no telescopes on earth at present big enough to see.
This is kinda strange I reckon, as there's been all sorts of shit put out there for the past 20 years, and not one of em has come close to taking one single photo of the moon? Hung about for long enough to skim over the sea of Tranquility for a decent photograph?
What was probably most interesting about watching the flic, that one of the Astronauts proclaimed that it has been one of the few times in history, even the only time, that mankind on this earth announced a solidarity. The rest of mankind might have been bemused over the appearance of a coke bottle - The Gods must be crazy.
The only other time I can think off - apart from war, is climate change.
Political arguement ensues from this point onwards. And the curser fliks while mankinds foibles lurk.
