Three months later, I begin again.
I make it to One Thousand DAILY in my mind; I *will* make it to One Thousand on this blog.

I love it, Rebecca! Your pictures are breathtakingly beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe pictures are so beautiful. My , what will they be when you get your new camera!!!
ReplyDeleteI loved reading your firsts of the season... so fun.
I love your photos...wow!
ReplyDeleteYou made $184 at your garage sale!!??? I usually make about $3.74 after two days of back breaking work!? ;) What did you sell? :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos!
Amy~ I usually always make $100.00 but I too, was blown out of the water this year at how much I made!
ReplyDeleteMost years (and this) I just sell little nicknacky things (I am constantly shedding *stuff* so our home doesn't become cluttered) and lots of clothes-mostly childrens. Oh-and I go through our movies and books every year too.
This year I had two bigger ticket items which helped. I sold a nice bike for $20. and a nice microwave for $10. but everything else was quarter stuff.
Also, a lady gave us like 14 bags of big boy clothes (sizes 8-14) which I went through and got out the shirts and pants that the boys could wear but most of it was totally not my style (skater stuff, skeletons, sports, etc.) and I sold those.
All the clothes I sell and all the books are always a quarter. I try and keep it so small a price that people don't think twice about paying for it. And it REALLY adds up. I was very pleased.
In fact, our community is having a sale at Labor Day and I am going to take all the leftovers and maybe even go around the house again for excess to try and make some MORE money.
Cameras are good incentive. ;-)
Hey, Look at all those fish! That's AMAZING!!! :) Did you have fresh fish for dinner one night?? :)
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures- I was actually surprised by the words at the bottom, I was thinking it was a pictorial post, and guessing at what they all were : )
ReplyDeletebeautiful, beautiful, beautiful -
ReplyDeletethe b/w of adele??? wow!!!!!

Elizabeth~ nope. Those fish were eaten (and cooked) by someone else. I told Matt I would be more than happy to have him cook fish outside in a campfire some night-but I am not doing it! :-)
