What a great turnout...

The rain held off until about 11:30am. But we still had a great turn out! Lots of people showed up. Some who could not read (we asked them to park on the street so it wouldn't bother our neighbors- but they didn't). Lot's who liked to bargain and talk us down, which is the fun part of a yard sale!

So, drum roll please....
Including the bake sale and the yard sale....
We made.....
....$528!!!
How great is that. I am now less than $450 from my goal! Woo Hoo!
Total miles walked so far: 189

Yard Sale! Yard Sale! Yard Sale!

Tomorrow is my yard sale! I have gotten lots of donations for it, mostly from my mom and sister (thanks you guys), but also from a few neighbors. I am finishing a few things up today. I have to finish making signs, finish pricing the goods, and rearrange the garage just in case it does rain tomorrow. That's right it is supposed to rain almost all day. Right now it is at a 60% chance. Keep your fingers crossed that it will hold off until 2pm tomorrow, so I can sell all the stuff and clear out the garage.

I've got some pretty good stuff. Jamie and I have even bought a few things ourselves!
If anyone is in the area tomorrow, stop by. You never know what treasures you will find!
Total miles walked (including the miles I walked at 5am): 185
