Garage sales

Well Dixie wants to know why I have not blogged lately. Well I have been really really tired. It took me a week of just going to work and coming home and not doing anything to recover from having a house full for over a week. I am not complaining. I loved having my kids home. I was just totally worn out when they left. I don't know what last weeks excuse was. It flew by. Today I have been trying to recover from the hard work of my 3rd garage sale. I have done quite well. I did over 900 from the sale we had here at the house. (We didn't have a lot of people, the ones that were here just bought a lot of stuff.) Then after I got off work on Friday I loaded up my car and went to my friends house in Tekamah. I made almost 200 Friday night and Saturday. My friend kept apologizing because we were not real busy. I told her I was happy with what I did. Yes, it is a lot of work but I got rid of a few more things. Tonight I got the money for the 2 Nova's so that was another 150. I just need to figure out what kind of price to put on the red pickup when I get ready to leave here. I have several people interested in that.

Who knows what this week will bring. I know on Wednesday I am suppose to meet with the guy who is handling my retirement. Oh dang - I have to find some information on my life insurance policy. I am going to bed early tonight. It is almost 9. I want to get a good night's sleep so that hopefully I can crawl out of bed on time for once.

By the way for those of you who have read Robert's blog. It is no mystery about the camera. He stole my camera. He thinks that I switched the cameras around. I didn't even know I had his camera until he told me he had mine. That is one reason why I haven't posted. My pictures are in KC. (Except for the ones I took after Robert left my house.) I have some beautiful pictures of Bob's grave from Memorial Day. I wanted to put those on my blog. Good night everyone!

    Those garage sales are a lot of work. But it is amazing what people buy. Dance and Cheer had one Saturday and it took two trips to Columbus to unload the rest of the leftovers. The first load went to Center for Survivors and the second to Goodwill. Glad that is over with. Anyone want to help with concessions this weekend. We have a tournament and most of my girls are playing softball in Seward. YIKES!!! My family is gonna have to pick up the slack!
