Yard Sale

The dining room table is covered in boxes full of treasures to put outside tomorrow morning. The newspaper ad has been placed, the change for the cash box is in hand, and the signs have been strategically placed around the neighborhood. Now...all that is left is for the masses to come in droves and pay me to cart off my stuff :). I do hope that is the case...the droves and masses and all.

I have lined up a local charity to cart away anything that doesn't sell. NOTHING is coming back in the house! No, No, No!! The clutter WILL be banished!

There is a 60% chance of thunder showers tomorrow. I hope the weather man is wrong. We have tents just in case, but it will be a miserable day if it rains the whole time, not to mention...the masses and droves may be more like one or two people an hour instead.

I ordered the cutest yard sale signs from vistaprint.com. I hope they will bring those thousands and thousands of customers our way. I couldn't decide if they were too girly, but in the end I decided that if I saw that sign, I would go to that yard sale in a heartbeat...and i might even spend more money just because I got so excited about it...so maybe it will work on other people the same way. Or at least that is what I'm telling myself.

I've been blaring crazy loud music all over the house this week while I've been fevorishly sticking price tags on everything I can get my hands on. I've been quite ruthless, and I think tomorrow may prove to be very difficult in some ways letting go of some of the things I have wrenched from the corners of my home. Hopefully, when the cash is counted - and the house is less cluttered, it will all be worth it in the end!
