I THINK WE'RE READY. . .
For the garage sale, that is! Thanks to hard work by some of the family and very expert assistance by some friends for our old church, Countryside, everything is organized and priced. I had to be out of town for work Monday night and Tuesday night. Tuesday night they got a lot accomplished. I was able to get back in time to be of some assistance (I think) Wednesday night. Now we have just a few last minute details which need to be taken care of and we'll be ready for tonight.
We hoping and praying for good weather. But what's a garage sale without some rain--especially on the 500 race weekend! It's like I told the family, the main goal is not to make money but to get rid of all this "stuff"! I'm not sure they totally agree with me--about the "not making money aspect". Karon says I'm spending more than I'll make but that's hopefully not true. It is true that I spent money on newspaper advertising and I bought a couple of large, durable signs with wire frames for a couple of intersection corners. I consider both of those a good investment!
Karon had chemo Monday so she's now suffering the side effects and feels pretty miserable. Hopefully this weekend won't be too much for her.
I'll let you know how the garage sale turns out. We're having it tonight (Friday), tomorrow and Monday. When they were setting up Tuesday night they sold a lamp to a neighbor. This morning early a couple of guys stopped by inquiring about the sale. Hope that interest continues through the weekend.
What we don't get rid of this weekend we'll try to sell in the neighborhood yard sale June 16th.
Blessings,
Jim
