Today was our yard sale. Our neighborhood organized a community yard sale day. 38 of the 424 homes had stuff out today. Mitchy and I went to bed about 2am last night after all the preparations were (almost) done. Then we set the clocks and got up about 6:30am. I stayed in bed 'til 7, but got up pretty easily after my extra 1/2 hour. (For those of you that don't know. I'm a sleeper! I can't ever get up in the morning and 7am is just too early!) But I did it! We set up the tables, clothes, books, and waters, and we were ready by 8am. Bring it on shoppers! We're ready for you!

OMG. We were sooooooo not ready for it. Those yard sale divas were brutal. I had this $128 dress out on a rack with a price tag of $10. One chick picks it up and says "How much?" I said, "Everything on that rack is $10." She says, "NO!" I'm like, huh? After a few rounds going back and forth, she says "I give you fity cent." I say, "Please put it down. I have other customers that will buy it, and if not, I'd rather donate it!" ...and so the day began.

It actually was worth all the drama. Our garage looks awesome, and we put a little cash in our pockets. We'd do it again in a minute. Next year though, I hope to shop!

BEFORE

Horrible Mess.

AFTER

Much better!

More to write, but tired. Tonight was Donna and Cliff's 50th birthday party. It was awesome, but I want to give it it's deserved time on the blog, so I will write all about it tomorrow! Night night. Hope you all enjoyed your weekends!
