....clearing off the clutter of the kitchen bar top in anticipation of our birthday guests arriving. We made it simple by allowing Audrey to invite 5 classmates to a sleepover party tonight and only 2 can make it. She is jazzed though.
I decided earlier today that the kitchen floor is not getting mopped (maybe next week after the kids are back in school after Veterans Day - they will just get it all crumby and sticky again fast.)
The garage sale was a bust. I'm kind of bummed about that. I took pictures of some of the large ticket items so I could sell them on Craigslist (the treadmill found a new home last night.) Otherwise I will try again in the Spring when everyone starts getting their income tax rebates. I stored everything in plastic bags and most of it is already priced so hopefully it won't be such a chore to get everything set up again!
The funny thing about garage sales is the "stuff" I thought would never sell sold the best and the stuff I thought would be easy to get rid of is still in my garage.
The true relief is that it is all over. The election on Tuesday went well for our local candidates and I look forward to a quiet two years before the process begins again - by then I will be looking forward to getting involved again.
This week I get to finish my Christmas Cards, spend Veterans day with the kids and hopefully get over my cold.
But first we need a birthday girl........
