Yard Sale 2.0

Posted in General. on Friday, May 22nd, 2009 by jamie

Tomorrow, Kristi and I are having our second attempt at our annual yard sale. Last Saturday, it rained so we decided to cancel. Of course, we weren’t 100% sure it was going to rain. So who came back from a week in Cleveland for training and stayed up until 1am to price her crap only to get up at 5 the next morning to the sound of rain? This girl, that’s who.

I don’t think either of us have any big ticket items – just a random assortment of stuff. Usually, most of my stuff is clothing. There’s always a few things that I pull out and say “what was I thinking”. Then there’s always the depressing stack of clothes that I can no longer fit in. But this year is different. That stack of clothes is not so depressing because this year they are too big! That’s a great feeling and a great motivator for sticking with the diet so that next year I might have the same result.

But, there is one downside to this. My favorite pair of capris, the ones that make me feel hot (because nothing says hot like rhinestones on your ass) are in the stack of too big clothes. It was painful to fold them up and put a price tag on them, but I had to do it. Hopefully they will go to a good home. And I also hope that I will make enough money tomorrow to go find me some new hot pants.

    We will have to scour the malls until we find a replacement for those capris!

    In case anyone was wondering, no one purchased my hot capris. Maybe next year. Or, maybe I’ll think of something crafty to make with them. I need cushions for my patio furniture…..
