Garage Sale...

We worked our butts of Thursday and Friday getting ready for this garage sale. We even made $160 before we were officially open! People go crazy for garage sales. We placed an ad in the paper that said we would open at 8 a.m. Everyone was lining up at 7:30. We had an antique store owner from Anadarko come by this morning and go through our stuff. He gave us a $400 credit towards his store. Chris has picked out a dining room table there. Of course, our $400 credit only gets us about a 1/3 of the way to being paid off. This morning I felt like we were making some money until our carpenter came by to be paid for some work he has been doing on our rental property. Once again, we were back to $0. Actually, we are in the hole. I guess it is all how you look at. If we end up with an empty garage it will be worth all of our time and effort. Here's a pic of Chris and Charlie helping. In all fairness, he is covering the garage sale right now. Of course, he works from the couch.
