Where did the weekend go?

This week and the weekend seemed to fly by!! Every spare minute was spent gardening, pricing items and setting up for the garage sale we had on Saturday morning.

Friday night the girls came over to do some scrapping / cardmaking - as usual I seemed to be doing more chatting than crafting! LOL Cathie wanted to CASE this card, so I decided to make one too.


Saturday morning we were up at 5am to put up signs and some last minute organising - I'm so glad the rain held off till after lunch when we were ready to finish up anyway :) The garage sale took 4 months to finally happen - Mum & I decided in November to go through our houses to de-clutter and reorganise. We set a date for the garage sale in late November, but between Christmas, floods, renovating, moving, and general rainy weather it kept getting delayed. I'm so glad it finally happened - this is what my lounge room looked like!!


It looked like something out of the TV show "Hoarders"! LOL It was actually tidier - we had all the items stacked up against one wall - but made this big mess going through the boxes and pricing all the items :)

Sunday morning I was up early again and packed up the leftover stuff from the garage sale into boxes then put them in Mum's car to take to the op-shops. Then we went off to the PCYC markets to visit Helen's stall and buy some very cute stamps and birds embellishments. After that we borrowed Mike's trailer, loaded up the 2 futons we sold at the garage sale and delivered them. All of jobs were done by then, so the rest of the afternoon was spent watching DVDs.

Cruise countdown...13 sleeps!
