Yes - three Labor Days. This was the weekend of the big yard sale. I had a pod full of the stuff we took out of my mom's house, along with some some of my junk accumulation. The best friend in the world,
Laura P, came over and brought a van full of stuff from her house. We spread out all the way up my driveway and into my neighbor's yard, who by the way, also gets the award for best neighbor evah. He did all the heavy lifting for us and was right there until the end boxing and organizing the left overs to go to charities.
We held the sale from 8:00 to 4:00 for three days, and cleared out a lot of the stuff, made a little money, and believe it or not, had one whale of a good time doing it. We met some of the nicest people, cutest kids, and some folks I fully expect to be featured on "Hoarders" at some time in the future. Even the weather was absolutely pleasant and dry.
I am also looking forward to the massage that is owed me - I bartered an old chair with a massage therapist!

A massage - that's the best barter EVER!! Enjoy!
You didn't have two chairs -- or three? I started separating the wheat and chaff for a yard sale so I can move to the boonies. What a huge job it's turning out to be -- but your sale gives me hope! Maybe I'll get a massage out of the deal.
send me your motivation!!! I've needed to have a Yard Sale for a few years now, but can't seem to find the motivation (or guts) to do it....
