The Yard Sale. Day Uno.


We survived day one of our two day yard sale adventure. My blah attitude that has snuck into my week didn't end with the yard sale, so I was pretty blah about the whole sale. I didn't even get around to unpacking all the yard sale stuff, and spent all day pricing stuff. I believe that 95% of my things in the sale are priced at 25 cents. It's not intended to make me rich. But I am hoping to get rid of my stuff. And what doesn't sell will be donated and then I'm done with it all (until next Spring).

Some highlights of the day:
  • Using my Spanish skills to tell the cost to a couple people.
  • Having a repeat customer from last year who reminded us that he bought 800 miles of aluminum foil last year, which he is still using.
  • Looking through some random and weird stuff.
  • Getting the stank eye from a 2 year old.
  • Seeing my beautiful baby sister, a new friend, an old friend, my cousin and my aunt, and my neighbor.
  • Joking about the rapture and zombie apoclypse that is supposed to happen this week. It would allow us to not clean up after the sale.
  • Qdobas for lunch.
  • Coming to the realization while unpacking stuff that Teo's pants can be cut into shorts. Duh.
  • Selling a "moving picture" thing and then bursting into fits of inside-joke giggles afterwards.
  • Poking Merri's very red arm.
I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to tomorrow or not. Haha! But, I'm sure it'll be fun.
