And everytime I had one, I’d say to myself that it’s the last one I’m going to have. But when my oldest pal called me and told me about this neighborhood garage sale of all garage sales I couldn’t say no to her request to help. So within two days my husband’s truck was again packed to travel this time across Ohio  with all my junk–I mean treasure.

Worth all the work to hang out with friends!

It was a lot of work to produce a little pleasure. Collecting, dusting off, pricing and boxing is time consuming and exhausting. I traded yoga for the exercise I got running up and down the stairs for those two days. Then there is the unpacking. I hope my friend knows that a second set of hands will be needed when I arrive. Do you remember that I mentioned a little pleasure? Well, that is being able to hang out with her and laugh like hyenas when the customers want to pay 10 cents for an item marked 25 cents or just reminisce about our crazy years at BGSU. Tune in next week for the results.
