Yard Sale

In the process of cleaning up and clearing out that we are continuing from our initial New Years resolutions, we have taken on the task of preparing for a yard sale.  This has become a much bigger project than when we first tossed out the idea.

As I began looking through our rooms, garage, shed and generally around the property I was excited about all we could put out and perhaps give a new life to in someone elses home.  Then as we actually began moving and cleaning this became a HUGE effort. We decided to move everything out of the front sunroom and set up a "display" area for the items that might get damaged or blow away outside. 

Our items outside are still being set up as we've had to group them together under tarps right now since the weather is threatening to rain from this "tropical depression" we are experiencing.



Amber came over two mornings last week to help me pull out and set up some of these things. She said my front room "looks like a thrift store".  Great just the look I want : )   It is temporary and will
be a great help for clearing out many items that we don't use any more and don't need to keep storing.

I've made arrangements for an ad in the local Pennysaver, and am preparing my notice on Craigs list garage sale site.  Cameron and I will be making signs this afternoon, and this week we will continue to pull out stuff, clean it up and set up for this next weekend when we plan this shindig.

Anything that doesn't sell will be donated, so one way or the other we will be reducing the sheer volume of stuff that has just been taking up space.

There  is still a lot to do before this weekend, so once again we will have a busy week, but I know our efforts will be really worth it to continue  this process of  really cleaning up and clearing out!!!
