I had my very first yard sale yesterday. It turned out to be a lot of fun. It was a community yard sale. Not only did we sell clothes, etc, but we also had some fun things too. My daughter called it "Fun Sale". She had a lemon aide stand. She has always wanted to have a lemon aide stand. She did awesome! She made $17.75. I couldn't believe how well she did. Aside from lemon aide, we sold bottles of water too. I did some face painting and temporary tattoos for the kids. I think next time we will advertise on Craig's List. Someone, had that gem of an idea, from one of the forums I am on. We didn't have enough time to do it for this yard sale. I am thinking I may even have some crafts too. We made a good little bit of money. Going straight into the bank account to pay bills. Oh what joy. lol Actually, I am very grateful and blessed to have made any money to help with our bills. God is great!
Now, let's talk about the night before the yard sale. Can we say, OUCH! It took quite a lot of work to get everything together for the yard sale. This has just been such a busy busy month. By the time we were nearing the end of preparation, I barely could move my neck and back. Wow, did they hurt! RA definitely is not making things easy. Thankfully I get my Rituxan infusion on the 26th. Wheeww, I am ready. I better go now, and act like I am being productive around this house. lol I hope everyone is having a great day. :)
