This is the garage sale. I woke up at 5am to start this shin-dig. I was tired by 7am. It was a slow day. Since the city was supposed to have a city wide sale, I just figured that all of the advertising was done. Well, I was wrong. The weekly paper had a page of where the garage sales were. My house was not listed because I didn't know. Some people even had adds in the big paper. Now if I was thinking, and I hadn't changed my mind, maybe I would have done all of that. Instead, I had been waiting for months to have this sale, and 2 weeks before the sale changed everything. The house was tense and I was going on vacation.
Anyway, I did have the sale at the last minute. I did not get everything out, but I did ok. I made $63 and after the sale I started loading my car up for the Salvation Army. If nothing else, I cleared out a lot of clutter.
I will be having another sale in the middle of June. And my sister will be joining me. I will advertise, and I will have more stuff. I will admit, I do a lot better when someone is helping me. I can't wait. I will be getting rid of more craft stuff like material and scrapbooking items, along with ribbon and fibers. I did have a lot of scrapbooking items go---so I was very pleased.
Well, I will go for now. Have Fun. My brother is up and we are going to hit some garage sales and Marc's. He loves that place.
This is me. This is my blog.
