TAKIN' A BREAK

Yep, you read that right -- I'm takin' a break for a few days.

The weather report for the weekend is good, so we're planning to go ahead with our garage sale this weekend.

Seems as though all I've done the last few days is put price stickers on the sale items, many of which are dishes. I took time to look some of them up on the web as they appeared to be worth something. (Rex's first wife LOVED decorative dishes!) It was quite interesting, especially when I would find an exact match for something I had -- Currier and Ives plates, for example.

What puzzled me, however, were a couple of old metal plates -- don't know if they are brass or bronze! But were they heavy. The design looked to be hammered out. There were absolutely no markings on them to identify the source, so I just stuck a sticker on them that says "Make Offer!"

Tomorrow someone is coming to help us set up shelving on wooden horses so we can display things. We had hoped to borrow folding tables from the church, but there is a big dinner and baby shower Friday night for the pastor, so they need all their tables!

Anyhow, think of me the next couple days and say a prayer for me as walking is difficult for me and we have to carry everything from the living room outside!

See ya in a couple days!

  1. Ugh, good luck! Garage sales are a lot of work! Prayers that it goes well and everything gets sold. Take it easy, don't overwork yourself!
