Had a Yard Sale Today

So today started out to be a great day. The weather was wonderful and my friends and I got together and had a yard sale to get rid of a bunch of junk. We set up like 3 tables in the front yard. Had everything all laid out and displayed all nicely. Posted the ad in the paper. Posted signs on the corners towards her house. Did it all. We were ready. Had our drinks, chairs, snacks, change....you name it. Well then we sat and sat and sat some more. It was like 1 person would come, then about 1/2 hr later another person, then 1/2 later another person. It went on like that all morning long. We didn't get as many people as we had hoped for. And we were basically just sitting out there in the hot beating sun and baking. It got REALLY hot around like 10am. So by 11:30 we called it a day. We were a little disappointed with all of our efforts and not too many people came. But that is what happens when you have a yard sale, it is like hit or miss. Sometimes you get a lot of people and you get rid of all kinds of things and sometimes you get just a few people and you get rid of a couple things. For us it was a few people and hardly nothing. I made like only $16.00 today. That's all. BUT I DID get a pretty good TAN. LOL.
So that was my day today!!! How exciting!!!!
