Yard Sale – So much FUN!

Needed to clean out the garage this weekend – so we decided to have a yard sale. What a GREAT idea! So many fun things came out of it!

For starters I got to do something I NEVER get to do on weekends – get up at 6am! I don’t know about you – but I just HATE when I sleep late on a Saturday after a week of working 12+ hour days. This is much better.

Then I got to haul eveything out of my garage onto the lawn, wading through walls of spider webs PRIOR to my first cup of coffee. The BEST! Nothing helps you greet the day like a whole TON of CRAP that needs to be moved from one place to the other, while deadly insects lurk everywhere. Woo Hoo!

Thn the people started coming. Not at 8am like we advertsied, mind you – at 7am, so they could get their pick of items, and haggle ove a QUARTER for them. It sure honed my negotiating skills to go battle over a brand new, in the box CD writer – all in the name of ONE DOLLAR.

Made about $350, minus $100 to have a hauling company take away that which wouldn’t sell – for a mere WHOLE day of work instead of floating in the pool with Sydney and Pam.

But hey – at least my garage is empty.
