A Large Sale This Weekend
Hwy 38 sale...
For a month now I have known about a yard sale on Hwy 38. All the neighbors along this road have items out for sale. A wide variety of items. I have shopped there before. The best chance of not overspending is when I have my mind made up about what I am looking for and stick to that list.
A friend invited me to put items in this years sale and I have not had the energy to do that. I have two days and can not get myself into it. I told her I can help her whether I have items or not. Then I am not committed for the entire time.
Today she said that her husband's plans changed and he can run the till. Collect payment and visit with people. He is good at that, she said.
There are pants and blouses
and of course dollhouses
There are hoverboards
and even some gourds
I have used canning jars
and lids, then there are stars
for hanging on the ceiling
and name-brand jeans with bling
some sweatshirts, and a cooler,
dishes, and a snowblower
~~
No energy in me
It is not to be
This time, it is she
That is wisely
done and probably
best for me and hubby
He will need some company
on the drive to accompany
him to work for free
Iced tea is his fee.
