yard sale day 2

day 2 was worse than day 1..... we had everything set out by 7 am and it wasnt until after 9:30 our first customer stoppped by. I don't think we had 10 people stop all day! If i didnt hate having a yard sales before i sure do now, too much work involved with setting them up for such a low turn out. Well at least some of the things sold we did make enough to pay for the ad and put a few extra bucks into the house fund! It was good to sit and talk with Aunt Judy and Aunt Eileen too we dont do that enough, saturday Jesse and her mom and carson came up to so that was nice. Hopefully the things that go to the sheppard center will go to people who will enjoy them as much as Uncle Manny did too thats all that matters really.

yard sale day 1

Well day one of the yard sale didnt have as many people as i would have hoped. It takes so long to gather, price, and then set up that you really hope for large crowds. Aunt Judy and I along with Aunt Eileen handled Friday i got to Aunt Judys early @ 6:30 am and Aunt Eileen arrived a few minutes after i did so we set the stuff out and waited...................... we had some customers then we waited..........you get the idea! We closed up about 2:30 or so and prepared to do it all again. Hopefully today being Saturday we will have more crowds of people and we can sell more.

HOME.... its finally looking like mine

It's been awhile since my last post things have been busy here at the Frist home, We are FINALLY going to get our things out of storage from New hampshire next week so we have been busy gathering up all the stuff that was left from Uncle Manny and cleaning house to make room for our things! Jeff has been busy painting which he hates but he does such a great job and mom dad aunt judy, aunt eileen and I have been sorting thru the antiques and stuff for a yard sale this weekend. What a job that was! Who knew one person could collect SO MUCH in the many years they live here on Earth.....my oh my. Im excited to be getting my own things back its been so long since i have had some of the things out of boxes its going to be like christmas over here next weekend. We packed up our house 2 years ago and the last few apt we rented were way to small for it all so i havent seen some of the boxes in 2 years!! I didnt realize how overwhelming a process this would be for me and im very very grateful to have had my family around to help me i think if it were left to me to do alone i would have given up, to many things to sort thru....so in case i didnt say it before THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP guys! well i'm off to the yard sale heres hoping for a big crowd with lots of money to spend!!
