Garage Sale!

We had been wanting to have a "Garage Sale" for over 2 years now and something always came up or we just weren't prepared time-wise. So as soon I heard that our city was having their "2nd Chance Garage Sale" where you can have one without getting a permit well...we jumped on that band wagon...lol. We started about a month ago my niece Katy, Phil and I got the stuff down from the attic, from the garage and the backyard and cleaned everything up and got it ready. Wow that was a process...but we got it done. Thank you so much Katy for all your help - we truly appreciate it very much.

So last Saturday we woke up really early (6:00am...that's early for me...lol) to finally have the "Garage Sale" So we turned on the TV and checked on-line and found out that it was going to pour down rain that day. So we waited and waited...and WAITED... and then finally we were about to take some things out mid day and then it got a bit ugly for a while...but again NO RAIN. All we could think about was taking everything out and then it would have started raining....ugh! So we wasted the entire day...as you can imagine we were so frekin PISSED OFF.

Sunday - once again we woke up really early and took EVERYTHING out and sold a bunch of stuff. I know that we would have sold a bunch more if we would have been out on Saturday but we didn't do that bad...we sold about 70% of our stuff so we were pretty surprised. Our really good friend Kevin Brando and my niece Miriam came and helped us...Thank you so much you two...we really appreciate all the help.
