'Twas The Night Before The Yard Sale ...


And I'm worn out.  I've had a hot shower and two Advil, and it's time for a little sleep before the big deal in the morning.

I didn't think we had much junk - until we started pulling it out and organizing it.  Lynnette came over at lunch and the rented tables arrived a bit later.  As we started to pull stuff out of the boxes and sacks, it just seemed to multiply - by tens and thousands!  Lynnette was a lifesaver, and we managed to get most of the stuff out before Molly arrived - with more stuff.  She unloaded her car and sorted stuff until Bruce and Sharon arrived - with more stuff.  They made a run to get rolls of plastic sheeting, as it's supposed to rain tonight/in the morning.  They helped sort more stuff until KB arrived - with more stuff.  Everyone sorted and unloaded.  Lynnette had left earlier to pick up Lindley, and probably take her own Advil.  Molly left with Adam and a load of books, dvds, and cds to sell at McCays.  Bruce and Sharon left to listen to a singer downtown.  KB priced a bunch a stuff and then left to clear her brain, but first helped cover the tables of stuff.

Now I just need to make a few signs and we'll be ready to go.  Let's just hope the rain stays away but the customers don't!!

Today was a great day because:  Lynnette came to help sort stuff and find out the ending of the stupid movie I was watching:  Molly, Bruce, Sharon, and KB helping with the yard sale; David and Cody bringing the bed down from upstairs; Lynnette and Molly bringing needed foodstuffs during the day

Good luck - may all of your crap be gone by noon o:) My husband keeps threatening that we are doing one this year. I will tell you, though, if we lived near you, he'd be at your house buying up your stuff!

You say "never again" to yard sales like I say "never again" to Ragnars ;-).
