Another goal met. The tag sale is over, the dust has cleared and we are all exhausted. It was a total blast, I met some of my neighbors for the first time, gave excited children books for free, gave a blue's clues stuffed dog to a little boy in a stroller who wanted it really bad and his mom said no (I am not sure the mom was too happy with me), and generally got rid of a whole lot of junk. All day we waited from someone to take the huge hutch. Pat and Liz dragged it down the stairs and I put a FREE sign on it. We had a lot of lookers and no takers. A few people even tried to fit a piece of it (it breaks down into two pieces) in their truck or minivan. Nope, didn't fit. So after we cleaned up and rested a while, off we went to dinner at our favorite Vietnamese restaurant hoping that someone would come along and take it while we were one, and lo and behold when we got home it was gone. Yay, hallelujah, and yippee.
So, now that goal is done, the drywall guy starts on the rotten pink room on Wednesday. I have a meeting with Dr. B. on Tuesday, Pat works all day Monday. It's going to be a busy week. Next goal is getting the new bathroom functioning and the rotten pink room painted (after the drywall is in). We also decided that we should drive across the country next summer. I have always wanted to do that, and now is the time.
It was a terrific day. Lots of sun and fun. Here we are the tag sale warriors, me and Elizabeth:
I know what tag sales are like. I'm sure you're exhausted, but probably feel several hundred tons lighter!
ReplyDeleteCross country trip. Bob's been talking about that too. Meet you in KC for BBQ?
Glad to hear the tag sale was a success and sorry we did not make it over. Brad's parents arrived last night and we got caught up in activities with them today. What a gorgeous day. XC road trip sounds like a great idea!! Hope to see you guys soon.
