THE Garage Sale

I think I caught Christie in motion - which she was all morning as she helped us with the EVERYTHING!  She was here at 6:15 in the morning and I appreciated her help so much.  I couldn't have done it without her!

Our garage sale was very successful!!  And we had a blast.  We always have fun when we do a garage sales.  The neighbors come out and the shoppers are fun!  These are our very first shoppers in the picture.  I said 7:00 am in my ad but people started showing up at 6:20!  I guess we were ready as it all worked.  I had said in my at that we would be open from 7:00 until I was too tired to continue and that happened about 11:45.  I just all of a sudden couldn't do any more!

This was our smallest shopper.  He lives about 10 houses away and just showed up on his bike.  He looked around and then went home for some money.  He was so cute with all of his purchases and he even hung around until the end and managed to get some more cool stuff for free!  He was very entertaining!

This was taken near the end.  The funny thing was when I would all of a sudden see something I just couldn't part with and run with it into the house for safekeeping!! :)

Since is is not all gone we have decided to do it again next Saturday.  Then whatever is left will go to a charity.  We were really tired when it was over so we just went out to lunch and then came home and goofed off.  I have been working with my new Lenovo computer and trying to figure out Windows 8.  So far it is pretty cool.  I am also adjusting to a laptop.  I love my desktop with the big monitor and nice keyboard but I will get used to this.

So, one more step towards our escape!  Tomorrow we get to go visit Myrt!  (Myrt is our new 5thWheel RV)  We miss her!!
