NEIGHBORHOOD GARAGE SALES

This week-end is our neighborhood garage sales and WE DON'T HAVE ANYTHING OUT!!!!

I ALWAYS have a garage sale - every year - sometimes two a year.   Not this time.  We have cleaned out, tossed, given, advertised in the paper and given to Good Will all our extra THINGS.   We do have two pieces of furniture we'd like to get rid of and have a sign in the front yard to come see them but so far no one has ventured in.

Last night we walked to one neighbor's house that I was interested in her wares.   She had a little oval tub and it's great to put potted plants in and they can be watered or changed easily.  I bought it.

Another neighbor has a chair I really would like.   I don't need it but I do like it.   I could sell my recliner but then where would I take my afternoon naps?   Woe is me!!!!
She wants a table to work clay up on for a class she is going to teach and I could trade her the table I use for a computer table for the chair but really hate to give up this old table.   It's not very pretty but it sure is handy.

I think the neighbor hood sales actually mean;   one neighbor trades what he has to someone else that has something the first one wants.  

Tomorrow there will be some other sales by neighbors that had to work today.   I can't wait.
